It is perhaps more responsible reporting to have citizens just ask the questions and post them to sites like HA so the public can make up their own minds about the topic presented.

cons are rude to me everyday.

They should apologize too.

I’m sorry that you’re a hateful, pathetic excuse for a human being.

Feel better?

This makes sense.

Rude?

If you’re as rude and stupid in meat-world as you are here, well, no wonder.

Oh my, a journalist with integrity. Momentarily restores my faith in the profession.

Watch it again. She was taking the position that the people at the tea party were just an angry mob and the reporter lost her cool. I’d bet nearly everyone here thought cramer shamefully humiliated himself letting that daily show propagandist abuse him. She thought it was great and was how cramer needed to serve his penance. She’s only pissed because she thinks the cnn reporter gave the cretins some ammo to work with.

Maybe they should rehire O’Connor to train some of their executives.

Well you’re talking professionalism, which eliminates CNN from the get-go.

First, a seasoned reporter should have expected some of that from the unwashed masses, but more to the point, O’Connor notes that journalists reporting from riots and war and gatherings of conservatives

don’t get this indignant

.

Sorry wench not this time me thinks your toast

Poor little Susan could learn a lot from Michelle.

She could…but she won’t.

Good luck with that-CNN doesn’t care that she never studied journalism in the first place (she was an English major). Why should they be bothered about this?

After all, they had no problem with ignoring Saddam Hussein torturing his own citizens. This is chump change compared to that.

I agree with you. In some ways, their attempted cover-up, silence and rationals hurt them even more. And that’s fine with me.

ED – didn’t FNC people get threatened with violence, besides the typical slanders, when they covered the anti-W protesters? I recall a hearing that a few times.

And didn’t Michelle actually get physically roughed up at the Dem’s convention? If I remember right, she seemed pretty unfazed, and her response was along the lines of, “I’m a big girl, I can take it.” Poor little Susan could learn a lot from Michelle.

Nobody. I repeat, “nobody” is this stupid. I am absolutely convinced that getalife is the creation of Allah or Ed.

What else could explain the nonsense and irrational gibberish this witless, naive idiot posts day in and day out – posts that elicits only ridicule, laughter, and scorn? Over and over and over again.

Nobody is this stupid. Nobody is this masochistic. Nobody is this attention-starved. Nobody is this sick.

In short, getalife has no life: it does not exist. It’s not a live troll. It’s a macroTroll. Fess up Allah

Yeah, AP, fess up…….

Not this time. Roesgen simply ripped the curtain aside. Her behavior made any explanation or excuse ludicrous, even to their defenders. The clarity of exactly who and what they are is refreshing.

CNN’s ham-handed defense of her behavior seals the deal.

If Roesgen was unprofessional, then CNN is being childish and self-defeating.

Not giving them enough credit, they aren’t being childish, that was her assignment.

For those who want getalife to be banned…I don’t. The hero is only as good as the villain or antagonist. As long as getalife keeps his cool, then let him argue his view…I certainly don’t want this to be daily kos where if you don’t agree, you are banned.

I agree. We aren’t them. While i don’t agree with getalife, I mean how BORING would it be if we didn’t have him, Snark Vader, et al.? Getalife, I do appreciate you even if I don’t agree with you….and you’re still wrong. (Sorry, couldn’t let that get too sappy.)

(German: Nationalsozialismus), the National Socialist German Workers’ Party.

CNN should apologize, publicly, personally and privately, to each interviewee that their employee harassed. Roesgen should do the same, or she will never again have any credibility as a “reporter.”
