In the 1990s, when Tabitha Soren talked, millions listened. As a correspondent for MTV News, Soren covered the latest in music, pop culture and politics, interviewing everyone from President Bill Clinton to Tupac Shakur to Mariah Carey, with hard-hitting questions that sometimes ruffled a few feathers.

Soren’s authenticity and knowledge were undeniable. And for a whole generation of MTV watchers, Tabitha, along with on-air correspondents Kurt Loder and John Norris, became one of the most trusted voices in news.
