The "Real Rita was revealed" durning the 2000 election.
You could tell it broke her heart when somebody told her when the SCOUS stopped the conting in FL.
"And then there's Carol Simpson of ABC"
I happen to think Rita Cosby is a very good reporter, but her on-air manner leaves something to be desired. Personally, I think this has to do with a lack of confidence, which is probably related to her looks.
I'll never forget an interview I saw last year between Carol Simpson and the ex-pres. It was story about poor blacks growing up in Chicago, and Simpson compared it to Clinton's "success" after his "humble upbringing."
The part that killed me was when we she stuck the microphone in Clinton's face and said "Mr. Clinton, I have to admit I am in awe of you, speaking to you like this. How do you feel about talking to me?"
This really happened. They cut away Clinton's answer, whatever it was. She was essentially comparing herself to Clinton, and asking him what he thought.
It was one of the worst things I have ever seen anyone who calls themselves a "network journalist" do.
