    1. I saw a lot more video from that particular protest and I have no doubt that her life was made a living hell by some of those people from the moment she showed up. NOT a friendly media crowd (except to FOX).


    2. That said, she lost her cool and wasn't professional.


    3. Wonder who leaked the job application info? Classy.

    @Hockeymom: Got links to all that video of those people giving her a hard time?


    Maybe they gave her shit because she purposely sought out the freaks, the kind of outrageous nuts who show up at every public event and tried to make them representative of the whole rally.


    She acted like a shrill shill, not a reporter, when she wouldn't even let the guy answer the fucking questions she asked him.

    @The One: It couldn;t have been too hard to find "the freaks". See Here:
    [url][jezebel.com]]


    I'd be surprised if any other kind of protester was there, considering the protest is allegedly about the heavy taxation of a President who announced tax cuts, and their idea of protesting wasteful spending was to buy millions of tea bags that will be thrown away.

    @Brian Fowler: Sorry, but you're going to have to do better than Jezebel, a freak show I refuse to visit.


    If Obama is allegedly going to cut taxes, how the hell is he going to pay for all that big government expansion he wants to establish, like socialized medicine?


    And while he might be able to get an income tax cut for people who barely pay income taxes anyway, all sorts of other taxes will get jacked up anyway.

    @Botswana Meat Commission FC: having dabbled in broadcast journalism ages ago, I think its very normal to send applications and clips/reels to every outlet you can name. there aren't that many national cable news networks, yaknow?

    Maybe she's not upset she didn't get the job. Maybe she's upset at how she was treated in the interview process.


    I know someone who applied for a job at FOX and was told she had to sleep with the boss to get the job; that she didn't have to keep doing it, but she did have to do it once; that he sleeps with 'all his girls' once. She walked.


    Who knows, maybe the same thing happeneed to Roesgen.

    @The One: Reminds me of a troubled youth I grew up with. He was scoffing about a bar he'd wandered into over in Ft Worth. He growled and chuckled the usual homophobia a Texas boy is born with, even if like that Perry clown he's gay, and then, he said "And the next time I was in there ..."

    And the producer asks, "Twice?"

    You know, not being someone who generally actively follows news that I find completely uninteresting and banal, I was actually wondering if these guys (not just Fox but the "liberal media as well) realized that they were throwing around a piece of street sex slang so cavalierly.


    I just can't wait for the "tossed salad" protests.
