Do you think Anderson Cooper from CNN is gay?
There's a buncha controversy on this issue and Im wondering what you all think. He's the host of Anderson Cooper 360
It doesnt matter if he'd gay or not, he's still a good journalist and all.
I just wonder what you all think, gay or straight. Personally, I think he's gay. You never hear or see him with a woman out and about in NY or LA or wherever. He never refers to a girlfriend/wife and he just comes across as gay.
Anyway, voice your opinions 
To the Europeans who dont know who he is, just search Anderson Cooper on Youtube or go to the CNN website and watch on of his broadcasts.

I have no idea and I don't really care. I really liked some his stuff. Esp when he covered Katrenia.

It doesnt hurt to speculate
Im not questioning his skills as a journalist. He's an excellent journalist, gay or not.
But still, do you (and everyone else) think he's gay or not? He's sexual orientation has nothing to do with his journalist ability. I watch him nightly at 10pm, Anderson Cooper 360. And even if he came out of the closet, Id still watch him. Like I said, his ability isnt in question and his orientation has nothing to do with this skill.
Im just curious as to what ppl think. Gay or Straight

Check out Nr.2 on this site  .
The Most Powerful Gay Men and Women in America
EDIT:Aparently he is Gay
| Quote: | | Anderson lives with his male parter (the man thanked in the dedication of his book) and is out to everyone except the press, and that is only because he doesn't feel the need to share his love life with the press. But it is very out even to people who know him only casually. There is no way to 'prove' that of course, because people will believe whatever they want to believe (not that being gay is something bad that needs to be proven) but there are zillions of people in NY who know him as a happily (almost) out gay man. |

Hmm, interesting, so he is gay. I always suspected he is. He is a good lookin dude too, I dunno why he'd be gay. He could get some seriously hot women if he werent.
Still, he's an excellent journalist. Gay or not. I still have a ton of respect for him.
You know who pisses me off the most tho? Wolf Blitzer....especially when he tries to act "hip".
I watched the Democratic Convention a few weeks ago and Cooper made a joke about Wolf saying he's a big fan of modern music (obviously he isnt). And wolf, trying not to look dumb, says yeah I am. Remember when we saw that band at the basketball game a few weeks ago, The Bare Naked Ladies, they were a good wholesome american band....
Uh, the Bare Naked Ladies are Canadian....and he tries to use slang sometimes in his reports sometimes when he's covering something to do with pop culture...its just so fuckin lame it isnt funny.
He's a good reporter, but he should stick to being old school and not try to be 'hip' as he calls it

It's not like being gay is a choice you make when you're too ugly for hot women.  |
did i say it was? no. I was simply saying if he was straight, he could probably get some hot women cause he's a good looking guy |

Thing is, if he is trying to be hip and stuff and using slang, then the likely hood is that it's working for a large part of the audience. They buy it. Or he wouldn't have the job.

I gues what that really means is that he can get some hot guys

I think he meant “all american” as in “wholesome values” but I suspect you are right. He didn’t know that Barked Ladies are Canadian. We do live in North America which is both US and Canada. Hence American values?
Haha, My American Aunt does that all the time. If something is ‘good’ and Canadian it is ‘ours’ If something is bad Canadian like the drug trade then it is ‘Canada’s’ I noticed Bush doing that too talking about Alberta’s oil resources. He referred to them as OUR great resource. I guess ‘OUR’ could mean North American’s resources. Semantics. My feeling is that our sovereignty isn’t always respected.
Wolf Blitzer is annoying. He is too dramatic with his voice and he moves around too much. It is like he is trying to get the attention of all the viewer with drama like a kindergarten teacher.
Anyone care to take a crack at Nancy Grace?

I hate that bitch. Her voice, her expressions, her mannorisms etc She's just so fuckin annoying. And she asked some dumb questions. I think she did an interview once with Elizabeth Smart (that girl that was kidnapped by those wacko's and held for like 9 months and brainwashed and raped etc) and she asked "What did that feel like?"....like wtf? What do you think it felt like?
She's an annoying bitch, I never watch her.

Yea, exactly how I feel. I think her husband was a lawyer? who was murdered. They (basically those who promote her) say it what drives her. Drama-crap.

Yeah. And she thinks she's a know it all. Like her opinion is the only right one. Ive watched her a few times and fuck, never again.
There are a buncha ppl on CNN I hate. That one bitch that does the election coverage, Campbell Brown....her face annoys me because she's overdone it with those botox injections or whatever. Whenever she talks, her upper lip doesnt move. Fuckin annoying.
I dont know why ppl are so vain, it baffles me.

I fucking hate Nancy Grace. Not only is her whole show her shouting her worthless opinion but that opinion often turns out to be completely wrong in the end or just demented. I remember when the lacrosse team rape case was going on and she acted like the young men had no chance of being innocent (which of course they were) and basically crucified them verbally on her show. When she brought guests on the show that basically said there wasn't enough evidence for the young men to get convicted she didn't take this as they might be innocent instead she just became angry on her show and once tried to link reasonable doubt to Nazi Germany.
So in her mind if there isn't enough evidence to convict someone of a crime not only should they go to jail anyways but if they don't throw the suspect in jail then its just like Nazi Germany. Why is this fucking insane whore on television?
*edit* oh and when the lacrosse case was dropped she didn't bother going to work that day gee I wonder why.

haha I remember that too. Crazy bitch. I guess thats why they took off prime time and put her on that other CNN station, cant remember what its called. But she isnt on the main one. Well, usually she isnt. occasionally she is but i think thats because they need to fill an hour ya know? |
