Fmr. CNN Reporter on Susan Roesgen: “She Needs to Apologize”

At the Politics Online Conference in Washington D.C. yesterday, 24-year broadcast news veteran Eileen O’Connor, who was a bureau chief and later a correspondent at CNN for 12 years, said Roesgen “needs to apologize, she crossed the line, she crossed the journalistic line and she was rude to people she was interviewing.”
