When Maria Bartiromo started working for CNN many years ago, I had my doubts about her. She was beutiful, but she didn't seem to have the skills to do good interviews. They had her doing the financial news, but experimented with putting her on prime-time to do interviews. But today she is a champ. She has the courage to stand up for the truth and talk about events that the corporate media has collectively labeled as taboo. She's one of the best interviewers out there.
