Gannon to be covered on Anderson Cooper 360--getting legs?

[librechik]

I'm going to change my siggy--I think he's cute. If I were a gay guy...

[alittlelark]

1. Let's see 'how' he's covered....

I wonder if KO is gonna go into it???

[librechik]

3. I'm sure CNN got the red alert call

protect our biy at all costs.

If Anderson wants to keep his job, he'll go along.

They like the "conservative reporter attacked by liberals" story.

Calling Dr. Dean--attacked by bloggers did you say? Wait til you are attacked by the MSM! That hurts!

[Pirate Smile]

4. Someone said KO's e-mail about the show said he WILL be

covering it tonight.

[alittlelark]

7. Oh My..... KO is our best (and cutest) hope...

...let's just hope that he has all the ducks in a row - and BLASTS him.

[Pirate Smile]

2. If he just talks to Kurtz, it will be lame. It was on Blitzer's show.

edit to add - I was talking about Anderson Cooper - certainly not KO.

[The Backlash Cometh]

5. There is something really herpetological about his skin.

[DavidFL]

Careful what you wish for with CNN...

Leslie Blitzer covered this on his state propaganda hour with Washington Post whore Howie Kurtz. First they started screaming "liberal media" and then both made it seem like the "liberal media" was unfairly treating "Gannon" because Leslie said most reporters wear their political affiliations on their sleeve, most of which, of course, are "liberal." Leslie and Howie also implied that "liberal activists" would come under some sort of scrutiny because they were invading "Gannon's" personal privacy by digging into his past. In other words, propagandists Leslie and Howie were spinning this as more proof of the "liberal media" and that they are victimizing this "Gannon."

6. Anderson Cooper's report

is coming.

The lead-in said something to the effect of "Was he a White House plant...?" Love it.

[Skink]

8. Tune in 6:59

They might mention something.

[librechik]

9. damn, I have to go

will check back in later--

[librechik]

16. OK, I'm staying--they have Louise Slaughter on!

they are actually doing this story, more or less!

Pretty different from the propoganda hour with Wolf and Howie.

"we don't take sides on 360"

They have Louise on for interview!

She asks why should he be allowed to be a reporter. The WH says they don't take part in credentialling--what a crock!

Loiuise has been fighting for decency in the media. This administration has a pattern. (of hiring shills)

It doesn't matter that he's a conservative. It matters if he's a reporter.

Louise brings up the Plame memo!

EXCELLENT!!!!

[tishaLA]

10. Anderson will tread softly on this one

He has a few secrets of his own, remember. He won't do anything that will lead to his exposure in any way.

[madaboutharry]

24. What?

Anderson Cooper is openly gay. He isn't keeping a secret.

[tishaLA]

31. I don't know I'd use the word "openly"

[Democrat 4 Ever]

26. Okay, I must have missed that month's secret meeting - what

is Anderson Cooper's secrets? I have just gotta know!

[crispini]

11. Good story so far.

Mentions the Houston connection with Mr. Swift Boat.

[crispini]

12. Hey! Interviewing Slaughter! Woooooo!

"Part of the pattern of Armstrong Williams." She's on FIRE.

"The question is, is he a reporter?" WHAP!

"He was the only person known to have access to a secret CIA document about .... Valerie Plame." BAP!

"Do you think he was a plant?" Yes, I do! BIFF!

Oh, very nice.

[medeak]

14. you beat me to it!

Whitehouse and Talon "news" refused comment

[medeak]

15. Plame affair!

whoooo!

[Duncan Grant]

13. If you like sycophantic republiCONS with the largest

narcissistic wound in the world, then I guess he's alright. :puke:

edit: emoticon and addressed to Gannon not Cooper

[Democrat 4 Ever]

Rep. Slaughter is giving Cooper hell!

Bring up the Plame documents! She is accusing Gannon of being the leak. Yahoo! Moving on to credentials -

Cooper: Do you think he is a plant?

Slaughter: Yes, I do. If that is all it takes to get into the White House Briefing Room I hope 11,000 show up to get in.

[librechik]

17. Slaughter did GREAT!!!!

[medeak]

19. Cooper said "I hear you"

when she said we don't need propaganda....

yay!

[Pirate Smile]

32. I hope she will be making the media rounds.

[karlrschneider]

18. Slaughter is doing great!

"We don't want any more propaganda..."

[crispini]

20. Well, that was MUCH better than Wolfie's report

with that suck-up Kurtz. Jeez, it's like they were covering two different stories.

Ms. Slaughter, :yourock:

[hangemhigh]

21. Slaughter was just on, anyone see it?

She did NOT back down!

[Goldeneye]

22. Slaughter just kicked ass.

Major ass...she just kept going and she hit every point. I've never heard of her until today ...but I think she's great.

[karlrschneider]

23. That's the ugliest man I've seen in weeks...

ewwwwwwwwwwww

[medeak]

25. might start watching Cooper rather than Tweety

Tweety has apprentice Mark Burnett on..real cutting edge.

[Pirate Smile]

33. Geez. He is promoting NBC prime time shows. What the hell?!

[hector459]

27. Anderson tried his best to protect Gannon, almost attacked Slaughter

She was tough enough for him. She was able to slip in the bit about Gannon having access to the Plame document!! WOOOWOOOOO We are heading for something if we don't let it die. The American people are idiots but they still deserve to know the truth if they can take it.

[Maestro]

28. Who's this Slaughter?

She's excellent. It's funny. Cooper tried to be the impartial journalists but towards the end it was obvious he was sympathetic to Slaughter.

[AlCzervik]

29. She was great, funny as hell and drove her point home

[librechik]

35. congresswoman, wrote a letter to WH complaining about "Jeff"

it's on it's own thread somewhere

[crispini]

30. Ok, next story, why on EARTH is Cooper interviewning

a woman having an affair? HOW IS THIS NEWS? :wtf:

[Swamp Rat]

34. CNN will rot your brain.
