What a sad day...This left wing hack posing as a reporter is out at CNN..

Breaking: TVNewser has learned CNN correspondent Susan Roesgen's contract will not be renewed and she will be leaving the network. Roesgen, you'll recall, was criticized for her coverage at the tax day tea parties in April, when she said the event she was covering in Chicago was, "anti-CNN since this is highly promoted by the right-wing, conservative network Fox." Roesgen took a break for a few weeks after that reporting and returned to the air in May covering the Drew Peterson arrest. Most recently, she covered Michael Jackson's death from Los Angeles. Roesgen joined CNN in 2005.

Danny Glover continues looking at the strange debate that Susan Roesgen initiated at the Chicago Tea Party while she was supposed to be covering it, and reports for Accuracy in Media that even her colleagues in the media think she crossed the line. Former CNN reporter Eileen O’Connor, who now trains people to work in national media, says that Roesgen owes an apology to her interview subjects for rudeness and unprofessional behavior:

Susan Roesgen, the hack who harassed tea party goers, was a driving force behind the flawed Jena 6 narrative that circulated the MSM cesspool back in 2007. The level of professionalism which made her famous on tax day has clearly been par for course in Roesgen's career. Patterico has uncovered the extent of her involvement pushing the absurd and reprehensible racially charged narrative:

Susan Roesgen, the CNN reporter who mocked tea party attendees in Chicago, is the same reporter who spread myths about the racially charged “Jena 6″ case in Louisiana, in which six black teenagers were charged with attempted murder for the beating of a white student.

As I write about in today's column for AmSpec, and a couple of us tracked last week in this space, Chicago tea partiers chanted the theme of last week: "CNN Sucks." Newsbusters' Noel Sheppard took note from yet another YouTube video of CNN Sucks reporter Susan Roesgen stirring up trouble: After Susan Roesgen unprofessionally attacked attendees of Wednesday's Chicago Tea Party, she and the network she represents were summarily booed and chided by those in the crowd. This eventually resulted in Party goers chanting "Liberal Bias," "CNN Sucks," and "CNN Go Home!" Newsbusters (and others) report that Roesgen is taking...

Sure, there were more clever signs at Tax Day tea parties around the country. Some were clutched by indebted children. Others made "pox on both (political party) houses" statements. And there were the required bailout bashes. But no sign I spotted at any Lipton-lobbing rant fest summed up the nationwide sentiment like the one I saw on Fox News' "Hannity" program Wednesday night from Atlanta. The poster scribe could have condemned any other media formerly known as mainstream. He (or a brash she) could have written "MSNBC Sucks," but what's so bold about stating the obvious? He could have scratched...

Cable television news network CNN has attempted to block a video on YouTube.com that shows "tea party" protesters in Chicago confronting the network's reporter Susan Roesgen over her allegedly biased and "not fair" coverage of the event. Members of Founding Bloggers.com were on hand to videotape the crowd's response to Roesgen's report, in which she badgered protesters on air, summarizing her report by describing the tea party as "anti-government, anti-CNN, since this is highly promoted by the right-wing, conservative network Fox." Roesgen's report included arguments with the tea partiers, tossing out contrary positions and demanding her subjects justify their positions,...

Our lesson today comes from the old British novelty song. "I like a nice cup of tea in the morning "Just to start the day, you see "And at half-past-eleven "My idea of heaven "Is a nice cup of tea. . . ." In other cultures, tea is a soothing beverage, a respite from the cares of the world. A "Nice Cup of Tea and a Sit Down" is a British best-seller offering advice on tea, biscuits (that's "cookies" in American English) and comfy chairs by the husband-and-wife team of "Nicey" and "Wifey," which sobriquets suggest these are not folks...

CNN tries to use heavy handed tactics to keep embarrassing clip of reporter off YouTube By Paleo Pat, on April 19th, 2009 Wow, what liberals will not to to cover their own backsides and make themselves look good. I blogged a little about this last week, about the CNN reporter who basically tried to make the Tea-Party protesters look like a bunch of Fox News devotees. Anyhow, well, a little clip of her being confronted by one of the persons at the Tea-Party was posted by the Blog, named “Founding Bloggers”, and was posted to YouTube. Well, CNN comes along...

Susan Roesgen, the CNN reporter who mocked tea party attendees in Chicago, is the same reporter who spread myths about the racially charged “Jena 6″ case in Louisiana, in which six black teenagers were charged with attempted murder for the beating of a white student. The case gained national prominence because of the racial issues involved, and Susan Roesgen was at the center of publicizing the controversy, and perpetuating several myths about it. Roesgen’s bio says that Roesgen became the first national TV reporter to cover the tumultuous “Jena 6″ episode in that Louisiana town. In a piece titled Media...

After Susan Roesgen unprofessionally attacked attendees of Wednesday's Chicago Tea Party, she and the network she represents were summarily booed and chided by those in the crowd. This eventually resulted in Party goers chanting "Liberal Bias," "CNN Sucks," and "CNN Go Home!" This new revelation appeared in a video posted at YouTube. Let's see how long it lasts (video embedded below the fold, vulgarity warning):

Matthew posted earlier about the remarkably unprofessional behavior of CNN’s Susan Roesgen at the Chicago Tea Party yesterday. Founding Bloggers was at the scene after one of the tapings ended and found participants calling out Roesgen on her misrepresentation of the event. And yes, the clip is “family viewing,” despite what CNN would have you believe.

Newsbusters was all over CNN's Fox News-bashing, Tea-Party-bashing, ordinary-American bashing "reporter" Susan Roesgen. First, the video of her "reporting" - which was in the form of Roesgen attempting to undermine and refute the thousands of tea partiers rather than simply reporting on the event: For all of her bashing of Fox News as some "rightwing conservative" (and therefore presumably illegitimate) entity, Susan Roesgen had personally TWICE applied with Fox. Maybe her issues with Fox are more psychological and personal than journalistic? Now for some of the Newsbusters piece: CNN's Fox-Bashing/Fox-Job Applying Roesgen 'Tak(ing) a Break' By Seton Motley April 17,...

"this is a party for Obama bashers...anti-government, anti-CNN...not family viewing"--Susan Rosegen, alleged CNN 'reporter' during the Chicago Tea Party on April 15th, 2009.

CNN's Susan Roesgen, whose anti-TEA Party pseudo-reporting made her a legend in her own mind, and a biased Obama-flack hack in ours, is in the news on her own (de)merit again today. One peculiar line from one of her peculiar rant-filled reports was that the TEA Parties were being "anti-CNN" because they were "highly promoted by the right-wing conservative network Fox." Well it turns out she wasn't always so anti-Fox. According to Gawker, Miss Roesgen not once but twice applied to get a gig at the EEE-vile Murdoch machine. From the Gawker: Back in 2005, though, according to a Fox...

CNN's Susan Roesgen has had a rough week, what with all the ordinary American/First Amendment practitioners bashing she so passionately and obnoxiously delivered in her TEA Party reporting. Perhaps it was the sniping at the place she twice applied in 2005 - Rupert Murdoch's House of Ratings, otherwise known as Fox News - that put her over the edge. Or whether or not her email box was so overwhelmed with what was undoubtedly an endless stream of love letters and fan mail that it caused a server meltdown. Whatever it was, CNN has announced that Miss Roesgen's "tak(ing) a break."...
