As I write about in today's column for AmSpec, and a couple of us tracked last week in this space, Chicago tea partiers chanted the theme of last week: "CNN Sucks." Newsbusters' Noel Sheppard took note from yet another YouTube video of CNN Sucks reporter Susan Roesgen stirring up trouble:

After Susan Roesgen unprofessionally attacked attendees of Wednesday's Chicago Tea Party, she and the network she represents were summarily booed and chided by those in the crowd.

This eventually resulted in Party goers chanting "Liberal Bias," "CNN Sucks," and "CNN Go Home!"

Newsbusters (and others) report that Roesgen is taking a break from work all of a sudden.
