Hilary Rosen - Consultant and Pundit

Consultant and Pundit

In 2006, Rosen founded Berman Rosen Global Strategies, a short-lived consulting firm, with Jason Berman, Chairman of the International Recording Industry Association. In 2007, she launched OurChart.com, a site targeted to lesbians and fans of the television series The L Word. This site subsequently merged with ShowTime.com. She began working for the Brunswick Group, a London-based PR firm, in 2008.

Rosen began a television commentator career first with CNBC and then with MSNBC. She signed with CNN in early 2008.

Rosen left the Brunswick Group, joining the PR firm SKDKnickerbocker in 2010.

On April 11, 2012, during an appearance on CNN, Rosen criticized Mitt Romney for using his wife as an adviser on women's issues, stating that Ann Romney "has never worked a day in her life." The statement was broadly condemned. Ann Romney responded that she "made a choice to stay home and raise five boys. Believe me, it was hard work." On April 12, Rosen apologized for her comments.
