CNN's Roesgen Reportedly WillRead the whole thing and try as hard as you can to find any factual error in that article. The facts are objective, even when the facts are not neutral. A journalist's first obligation is to report the facts. This does not mean that a reporter does not have opinions about matters of controversy, such as the merits of President Obama's economic policy. But facts are more important than opinions.
Leave Network; Bias Alleged
CNN reporter Susan Roesgen will leave the network, a media-industry Web site reported Thursday, three months after Ms. Roesgen's coverage of an April protest in Chicago drew widespread criticism.
Ms. Roesgen's "contract will not be renewed and she will be leaving the network," Chris Ariens, managing editor of TV Newser, wrote in an exclusive report. . . .
If some other reporter were covering the story of Roesgen's exit from CNN, the article might have included a paragraph like this:
One award-winning journalist, who in April had dubbed Ms. Roesgen "The World's Worst TV Reporter," commented Thursday: "I wouldn't hire that wretched idiot Susan Roesgen to clean the toilet in my newsroom."That's an objective fact, ma'am.
