CNN has just shut down Susan Roesgen's email. Instead please email CNN Executive Vice President Ken Jautz at: ken.jautz@cnn.com and CNN Chairman & CEO, Phil Kent at: phil.kent@turner.com
NOTE: See Joan's letter to Mr. Jautz below
By now you've probably heard of the shameful actions by Susan Roesgen, the CNN reporter who harrassed attendees at yesterday's Chicago Tea Party. Instead of reporting on the Tea Party, Roesgen picked people out of the crowd to confront and argue with, before signing off her report by labeling the tea party movement as "anti-CNN" and "not family viewing."
Many of you have wondered what you can do to register your outrage, and we here at the Our Country Deserves Better Committee are happy to help.
We originally provided Susan Roesgen's email but CNN shut that down. We suggest now sending your emails first to CNN Executive Vice President Ken Jautz at: ken.jautz@cnn.com
Additionally, please let Susan's boss know how unacceptable it is for a journalist to become a left-wing activist in trying to defame and denounce a legitimate and honest political movement by Americans who are being robbed blind by our government and spent into a debt from which will be unimaginably difficult to ever pay off.
So please also write to Philip Kent, the Chairman & CEO of CNN: phil.kent@turner.com
If you missed it you can see the incident that played out on CNN below:
Please note at an anti-Bush rally following Hurricane Katrina, Roesgen gleefully reported that a costumed protestor mocking Bush as Hitler was a "Bush look alike" and yet yesterday sought to engage in a verbal sparring match with a protestor who declared Obama's recent actions have been fascist -- in ways similar to Hitler.
You don't have to agree with that protestor's view to see that Susan Roesgen's bias is so blatant it makes a mockery of CNN's motto: "The Most Trusted Name in News."

Dear Mr. Jautz,
After I returned home from a Tea Party in New York City, I tuned into Fox to see quite extraordinary coverage of this national grassroots movement. I only learned of Ms. Roesgen's "coverage" the next day from written reports and YouTube videos. As a longtime journalist, including over 20 years at the New York Times, I was frankly embarrassed (for my profession) at her brazen partisanship, undisguised anger, and egregiously biased "reporting." CNN can surely do better, for instance (charitably) relegating Ms. Roesgen to a desk job, sending her back to journalism school, or, better still, giving her a pink slip (or should I say red slip?).
Sincerely yours,
Joan Swirsky
