Two days after Susan Roesgen's much talked-about Chicago Tea Party live shots, we are learning more about what happened off-camera.
Sources close to the situation tell TVNewser as Roesgen was reporting her 2pmET live shot for CNN, she heard shouts from the crowd including "Damn CNN" and "Shut up, bitch."
As we now know, Roesgen wrapped up the live shot, saying "I think you get the general tenor of this," that it was "not really family viewing" from an "Anti-CNN" crowd.
Our source says Roesgen received an avalanche of email messages, some supportive, and some "vitriolic with crude insults."
CNN denies reports that Roesgen's email was shut down. A spokesperson tells TVNewser many people were emailing what they believed to be Roesgen's CNN account, but it was actually a non-existent inbox. Her email account was and continues to be active.
So far Roesgen is not talking publicly about the situation CNN tells us she's now on a previously-planned vacation.
Read on.
Maybe she is taking time off for this: Gawker reports Roesgen twice applied for a job at "the right-wing conservative network Fox."

Fox Comedy News is the place to be. You don't have to stop taking drugs or alcohol when you work. You can be as high as a kite because no one cares their all insane and get paid for acting and talking stupid. With the rating high and viewers attention why not. Who wants to hear the truth anyway.
