Liberal, Anti-Tea Party Quack Susan Roesgen Is Let Go By CNN

Newsbusters.com:

The last time we saw CNN correspondent Susan Roesgen, she was arguing with folks at the April 15 Tea Party in Chicago claiming the event was "anti-government, anti-CNN [and] highly promoted by the right-wing conservative network Fox."

Although CNN officials won't blame the decision specifically on this event, the network has decided not to renew her contract.

All together now: Aaaaaawwww.

As reported by TVNewser Thursday:

TVNewser has learned CNN correspondent Susan Roesgen's contract will not be renewed and she will be leaving the network. [...]

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.

When TVNewser asked whether Roesgen's comments at the Chicago tea party rally had anything to do with her not being renewed, a CNN spokesperson said, "I can't comment on personnel matters."

So is it actually possible that doing a poor job really can have some consequences in the news industry today?

Who'd have thought it?

Hey, with this recession going on and no signs of it getting better anytime soon, normally I'd feel bad for someone losing their job. But in this case I think that I'll make an exception.

Anti-FOX News, Obama Stan Susan Roesgen Was Twice Turned Down By FOX

Well, if you can't beat 'em (much less join 'em), hate 'em:

CNN's Susan Roesgen went nuts on the air Wednesday at a Chicago tea party, blaming everything (accurately) on Fox News. But maybe she was angry because Fox turned her down for a job—twice!

Roesgen got snippy with a crazy interviewee while trying to cover the tea partiers, and the crowd turned on her. "I think you get the general tenor of this," she said. "It's anti-government, anti-CNN since this is highly promoted by the right-wing conservative network Fox."

Back in 2005, though, according to a Fox News source, Roesgen really wanted to work for that right-wing conservative network. She sent a tape of her on-air work to Fox's then-programming chief Kevin Magee in January 2005, and followed up with another reel to Magee's successor Bill Shine in September 2005. Needless to say, she didn't get the gig.

Roesgen didn't respond to an e-mail request for comment, and a CNN spokeswoman said, "I don't know anything about that."

Tea Party Protester Pwnes Bush-Hating, CNN Pseudo-Journalist Susan Roesgen

This clip is already making the rounds: more proof of Bush-hating, CNN "journalist" Susan Roesgen, who got belligerent on camera after a crowd of Chicago Tea Party protesters, on Tuesday. caught onto her act of cherry-picking anti-Obama protesters for her liberal viewers at home. Look on as Roesgen gets owned by a Tea Party protester (this woman needs her own show!) who confronts Roesgen on what the Tea Party is really about, her liberal bias and the faux "outrage" she displays at the event. Again, Roesgen had NO PROBLEM joking, on air, about a Bush=Hitler mask at a left-wing protest 3 years ago.

CNN's Susan Roesgen: Obama Stan And Hypocrite

Seems like we finally have a liberal reporter publicly confessing to their leftwing bias. CNN's Susan Roesgen, while covering one of yesterday's Tea Parties in Chicago, became upset when she encountered some protesters, which led to a rant about the crowd supposedly being "anti-CNN" as well as a confrontation with another protester who dared to call Obama a "fascist".

Of course, liberal reporters never seemed to care when Krazy Keith Olbermann was calling former President Bush a "fascist" every week. And 3 years ago Roesgen herself didn't have a problem joking about a Bush/Hitler mask. Surely, MSNBC will soon be calling Roesgen's people to have her anchor a show for them. It's just funny when people like Roesgen try to portray themselves as objective journalists.

Hypocrisy we can believe in.
