***UPDATE*** Scroll down for video of Pelosi on Charlie Rose.

ABC News reports that in an interview with Charlie Rose to be broadcast Wednesday night, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi calls ex-New York Congressman Eric Massa "a very sick person."

Massa announced his resignation from his House seat last week amid allegations that he sexually harassed male staffers.

"This is a very sick person," Pelosi told Rose. "He has been diagnosed with cancer. Perhaps his judgment is impaired because of the ethical issues that have arisen, and he is no longer in the Congress."
