Gloria Anne Borger (born September 22, 1952)[1] is an American political pundit, journalist and columnist. Borger was previously a contributing editor and columnist for US News and World Report magazine and is now Chief Political Analyst at CNN. She was formerly the National Political Correspondent for CBS News. After joining CNN in 2007, she was frequently seen covering the 2008 campaign trail. She generally appears on The Situation Room as part of 'the (Emmy Award-winning) best political team on television.' As of March 22, 2010 she also has a perch on the new "John King, USA" show.
She worked previously as a political correspondent for NBC News, a special correspondent with CBS News, appeared as a panelist on CBS' Face the Nation, and was a panelist for the 2004 Democratic presidential debates. She also appears regularly on Washington Week on PBS and the Chris Matthews Show. Borger covered the Three Mile Island event for Newsweek in 1979.
[edit] Personal life
Gloria grew up in New Rochelle. She is a graduate of Colgate University Class of 1974, with a degree in Journalism. Borger's father owned Borger's, a distributor of electrical appliances. Borger lives in Washington, D.C. with her husband, Lance Morgan, a public relations executive.
[edit] Ron Paul Interview Controversy
In a CNN interview with Ron Paul in December of 2011,[2] Gloria questioned Paul about racist newsletters that were published in the 1980's & 1990's that bore his name. Ron Paul, seemingly frustrated with her continual questioning, left the interview saying that he had already answered CNN's questions on this issue. Other news sources reported on Ron Paul, following his interview with Gloria noting his responses to her questions.[3] Shortly after, CNN released a full unedited version of the video. Paul had an interview in excess of 8 minutes and was asked many more questions before the newsletters even came up. Though he did end the interview shortly after being questioned about the newsletters, he did not bolt out as the edited video insinuated. [4]
