Author Suzanne Venker (see) got a Mother’s Day surprise Sunday night on CNN: As the story is relayed to me by her publisher:
CNN set up the interview, and even did a lengthy pre-interview with Suzanne the day before, under the pretense that she would be interviewed alone about the book.
As she waited to go on the air, she was informed that it would be a (five-minute) debate with some woman [Carol Evans, editor of Working Mother magazine] and that her book had made all the ladies at CNN “very angry”
Memo to writers: Don’t get the women of CNN angry or they’ll get even.
