At today’s Tea Party protest in Chicago, CNN’s Susan Roesgen found herself in some hot water with an angry crowd when she became belligerent with a protester.

CNN shut the segment down quickly, with a few editorial insults toward the Tea Partiers thrown in for good measure.

“I think you get the general tenor of this. It’s anti-government, anti-CNN since this is highly promoted by the right-wing conservative network Fox.”

Founding Bloggers was on the scene, and we have footage of the schooling Susan Roesgen received from angry attendees after she signed off.

Amazing how dissent during the Bush years was defended by CNN and now derided.

And they wonder why we're angry.

Thanks, that’s what I was looking for. How sickening. But that other lady really told her off. Roesgen is the poorest excuse for a journalist. I already emailed CNN and told them how bad she hurt them. Anyone know CNN’s biggest sponsors so I can email them too? I don’t because I don’t watch it EVER since Glenn Beck left.

I don’t watch them either, I don’t have the stomach for it.

I’m sure there is a thread somewhere looking for a boycott, best thing I can do is simply not watch. Their ratings are in the tank and they wonder why, now they know

I flip through the channels as fast as I can from Fox News to HGTV, and unfortunately, CNN and MSNBC are both between there. It makes me ill to see them for a second. I would definitely like to hit them where it hurts though-in the pocket book.

Does your remote having a channel blocking feature? I use mine a lot as saves time when channel surfing.

I just mentioned yesterday to my Dh that a lot of people don’t realize that this won’t be included with their next years tax return and if both working people get it all year long there might not be a return. Just wait until those people go out next year like lots do and buy something with what they nornmally get for a tax return only to find it doesn’t cme back next year!
