The third Latino Leaders Luncheon Series event of the year will honor Soledad O'Brien, CNN anchor and special correspondent. The event will be held September 22, 2009.

She is currently working at CNN to produce Latino In America, the third documentary in the "In America" series. Scheduled to ait this October, it will focus on the growing U.S. Hispanic population and the pertinent issues that face the community.
Soledad is a member of the National Association of Black Journalists and the National Association of Hispanic Journalists. She is a graduate of Harvard University
Latino Leaders Network is a non-profit organization whose mission is to develop ongoing opportunities to bring leaders together, to establish relationships and dialogue on issues important to the Latino community, and promote the social and economic advancement of the Latino community in the United States by developing opportunities for current and prospective Latino leaders to meet and dialogue on issues of concern.

Soladad O'Brien gets paid to make "Latinos in America." She is probably in the top 5% moneymakers in the country. On the 4th of July she chose to work in New Orleans at an event instead of being with her kids on a holiday as a family. She chose to make, about a 10 month project, "Black in America" 2. After it ended she said she got to have dinner with her husband. She acts like she's ashamed of her husband, she doesn't praise him in public, in interviews or award ceremonies. However, when she's being interviewed, she highly praises other men. You'd think she were married to them. She's all about being #1, the world revolves around her. She does these award ceremonies and other things during the day, and enjoys being a single person at night at gala events, concerts etc.
You can be a poor journalist, not be truthful in your TV interviews (Moment of Truth, with Gates, CNN) and still be honored and win awards.
