Whatever credibility Anderson Cooper had left as a serious anchor man went flying out the window last night when he dissolved into giggling hysterics over a poop joke.
This is as good a time as any to mention that Cooper, who uses the CNN platform to push the gay agenda, has never publicly come out of the closet. Yet he giggles like a little girl over a doo doo joke? Can anyone else see the irony in that?
Cooper usually stutters as he rushes through the serious news so he can get to his favorite segment: the Ridiculist. The subject of last night’s Ridiculist — a humorous look at today’s current events — was the French actor Gerard Depardieu, who urinated on the cabin floor of a commercial airliner before takeoff earlier this week.
Control lost control of his normally steely exterior when he read the line about how the cleaning crew “should thank their lucky stars this wasn’t De-part-two.”
Cooper laughed uncontrollably as he struggled to regain his composure. Through giggles, he apologized to his viewing audience, saying “Sorry. This has actually never happened to me.”
That part is easy to understand: it isn’t every day that an anchor loses it over doo doo jokes on the set of a national news program.
Amid reports of “Anderson Cooper 360” declining ratings, we have to wonder if he has ruined the credibility of what once was a respectable news organization.
