Dan Lothian
Dan Lothian is CNN's White House Correspondent.
Some of the major events that he has covered while Boston Bureau Chief with CNN included the funeral of Rosa Parks, Hurricane Katrina and the 50th anniversary of the Supreme Court's historic decision in Brown v. Board of Education case.
Lothian was born in Midlothian, Illinois. He earned a bachelor's degree from Tennessee Temple University and a master's degree from American University in Washington, D.C.
On November 11 he created a controversy by asking President Barrack Obama the following question: ""Last night at the Republican debate, some of the hopefuls, they hope to get your job, they defended the practice of waterboarding which is a practice you banned in 2009. Herman Cain said, quote, 'I don't see that as torture.' Michele Bachmann said that it's, quote, 'very effective.' So I'm wondering if you think that they're uninformed, out of touch, or irresponsible?". Afterwards, some media outlets portrayed the question as revealed a personal bias.[citation needed]
