Anderson Cooper is perhaps America's next great news man...

[henslee]

At least according to the shameless and glitzy CNN promo spot I just saw.

1. Wonder what...

Walter Cronkite thinks of THAT one?:eyes:

B-)

[henslee]

2. I love cranky Cronkite.. Wish he had more respect.

3. He did a good job moderating the Democratic debate on CNN

I think he did the "Rock the Vote" debate. I remember thinking he did a good job.

But when you work for CNN, there is only so truthful you can be.

4. I don't know how he got a job after The Mole

But I'll give him his due. He was pretty good doing the overnight news with Thalia Assuras(SP?)some years ago.

5. Anderson, I love him. I don't think America is ready to accept an openly

Gay News Anchor. He's #1 in my book.

6. I sent him a flirty fan email a few months back...

...asking him when he'd be showing up shirtless on the cover of The Advocate... And he actually sent me back a witty reply, within an hour or two... I think he rocks...

7. I think he's a good man

Some people use old money to maintain independence of thought and do some good in the world. Others use it as a license to be a permanent asshole. Anderson clearly falls into the first category.

8. The Vanderbilt fortune ain't what it used to be........

:evilgrin: :D

[CPschem]

9. i've heard the rumors,

but is he really gay? openly?

[Neecy]

10. hmmmm

I had no idea he was gay *or* rich, all I know is that I dislike how CNN tries to hype his show as 'edgy', which it SO isn't.
