Comments on: He said WHAT?!?! http://insidecable.blogsome.com/2006/05/25/he-said-what/ Unvarnished news & opinion on cable news Fri, 06 Nov 2009 09:24:55 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=1.5.1-alpha by: Anonymous http://insidecable.blogsome.com/2006/05/25/he-said-what/#comment-10118 Fri, 26 May 2006 22:45:23 +0100 http://insidecable.blogsome.com/2006/05/25/he-said-what/#comment-10118 I do think his remarks were stupid, but as far as him not knowing anything about Reagan, not true -- He was a GUEST at Reagan funeral (with his mother who was a personal friend of Nancy R). He is acting pretty ridiculous lately, though.

I alos expect journalists to be appropriate whne addressing a graduating class at an Ivy league university. Anderson Cooper is not a journalist. He's a celebrity, nothing more.

When Ronald Reagan died, he knew nothing about him. He didn't know Reagan had been an actor. I'm just guessing, but when he leaves the news, the only news that will interest him will be the news about him. When Cooper came to the news, he had never watched it before.

His address wasn't at 'Graduation'; it was at 'Yale Class Day' and graduation was the following day. Most of his remarks were tongue-in-cheek. He made commments to the effect that if bin Laden had been at Yale, the Alumni Association would know which CAVE he was in. The way some people (mainly men, I notice, heh) go out of their way to find more reasons to hate Cooper, you'd think he was Bill Clinton. Here's the New Haven Register's article on the event, for those of you who prefer to get your information from sources other than gossip columns... http://www.nhregister.com/site/news.cfm?newsid=16673397&BRD=1281&PAG=461&dept_id=566835&rfi=6 Give me a break.

They were obviously meant humourously, and I would not in the least mind if they were addressed to my children. I greatly appreciate Anderson Cooper for being able to mix humour with seriousness. I don't trust people who are intent on always presenting a 'serious' front to the world. I do not find his remarks offensive.

But I certainly can't defend these remarks made at a college commencement. I'd be furious, too, if my kid was part of the audience listening to this fodder.

The comments Cooper made at Yale are inappropriate. They are a reflection of a person who doesn't take himself and his own words seriosuly. Cooper's actions and words are not those of a journalist.

Sounds like Cooper drank too much at prom and has hallucinated his prom events. I highly doubt he fathered a child in that audience, or anywhere else for that matter.
