I'm Sorry, But Why Is A.COOPER Taking over Aaron BROWN's Show?

[UTUSN]

1) A.C. has his own show.

2) A.BROWN was Peter JENNINGS's protege & has his own style.

3) I realize A. COOPER gained a following, but...


4) Rick KAPLAN better NOT mess with Keith OR try to elevate Rita.

1. Is A. Brown out?

No cable - what happened? I will say though that Anderson Cooper proved himself at Katrina, showed real courage, spoke truth, was a real hero in my eyes and I hope he rules the newscasts. But where is Aaron Brown going?

2. He must be subbing for him.

Last night they were on together. Maybe CNN will team them up, I kinda like the idea.

3. I've seen it a few times. The show is two hours now. He needs support.

Makes it easier to watch. Nice fast pace. I don't see what the problem is. They redid Wolf's show and put Jack in there. Seems to be the way of the future. More information if you have more people doing the anchoring. Faster pace.

5. "Jack"? "Jack"? As in A-hole CAFFERTY????

the one who traffic-ASSAULTED somebody? I realize that lately he has been reading anti-Srhub e-mails, but for YEARS he has been NOTHING BUT an a-hole. It takes some REPENTANCE (as Dr Laura would say) to MAKE UP with ME.

4. It's now Newsnight with Aaron Brown & Anderson Cooper

They are a team. I think AB must just have the night off.

6. Did you know Anderson is son to fashiondesigner/heiress Gloria Vanderbilt?

The boy's got some bucks!

This site gives his bio and mentions he'll be co-hosting Newsnight with Aaron Brown): http://usliberals.about.com/od/peopleinthenews/p/AndersonCooper.htm

8. Yes, I Knew That and I'm Grateful for Limo-Libs, But...

7. CNN is "tinkering" with its Newsnight formula by adding AC.

It might just be temporary, however.

9. Maybe Aaron Brown is off for the holiday? Just a thought...

Yom Kippur is after all, the most important Jewish holiday of the year.... (I don't have any idea what his religion is but he was on yesterday and they have been co-hosting the show since Katrina...)

10. Aaron does seem pinched that Anderson is on his show. IT was great

while AC was on the road but now it seems that AC is pushing AB out.

Yes AC has filled in for AB on numerous occasions but I don't think I want AC taking over AB's show. Either one can take PZ's place. I can't stand her or LK.
