    Title abbreviated for space.:
    "@Breaking #Debate Moderator [MENTION=72361]Ander[/MENTION]son Cooper has a BIG "Brian Williams" Problem #Debate Night #Debates2016"

    So Anderson Cooper made up his own little fantasy world to make him look like "Billy Badass On Location" instead of mammas little boy behind a desk.
    How many of these Walter Mitty type of stories are the pathetic letist media whores going to make up?
    Will this get Little Andy fired?

    I just have to laugh at these stooges.

    So if I interpret correctly This is an attemp to explain Trump's losing the debate before it even happens.

    Its not hard to believe that a man whose career is based on lies would lie for pay.

    Cooper has already hosted his debate. This goes to his veracity to ever tell the truth.

    Young kid out of college want to be a reporter. Has no experience so can’t get hired. Craftily makes a fake press pass, borrows a camera, and buys a ticket to a warzone. Starts filming, gets hired, later becomes a TV star.

    Here all this time I thought he was discovered while slurping a shake at Schwab's Drug Store.

    I like Anderson. I'd like to see him go straight, as in be a straight shooter news boy instead of a lying sack of feces.

    Psssssssssssssssssttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt: Wake up! The world is turning and you're missing it.

    The hit piece was written BEFORE the debate.

    In order for it to be a "hit piece" it would have to contain lies for the purpose of smearing him.. Point out the lies...

    But Grandpa didn't graduate from Yale. Let's be honest. Legacy or no legacy, he got in because he's a Vanderbilt....

    It does contain lies. The whole notion of the piece is that he received his break in journalism because of his trip to Africa when he was 17. That is simply a false lie. His big break in journalism came many years later when he covering the Somalia crisis.

    Also the piece lies by trying to contend that Anderson Cooper stated falsehoods about his experience in Africa. The claim is somehow made that Cooper insisted HE DROVE a truck through Africa when it is clear he used the past participle driven indicating that he acknowledges someone other than he was driving the truck.

    The piece also contends that he couldn't have possibly talked his way through checkpoints because the trip had paid guides. That is a supposition with absolutely no proof to back it up. Where they under the watchful eye of the guides the whole time??? Given their age I seriously doubt that. Besides the guides could have used him and his American passport to expedite their way through checkpoints. Again the hit piece offers no proof other than their absurd supposition that Cooper didn't talk his way through checkpoints.

    There isn't any inconsistencies with the story put forth by Cooper and the evidence of the trip. The whole notion of the hit piece is flawed and built on lies, innuendo, and supposition. Nothing new for the right wing ideologues.

    Whatever you need to tell yourself. Not spinning the article. The whole premise of the article is flawed as I have pointed out.

    Cooper did well as a reporter covering the Sago WV mine collapse. Since then he has been rather a personality instead of a reporter.

    The desperation of the left is showing up in every way possible.
    Faking stories about Trump
    Firebombing campaign offices of republicans.
    Threatening to leave the country if they don't win.
    Cutting off Julian Assange.
    Cutting off people at Trump rallies because they are black and not supposed to be off the plantation.

    Please name said fake stories. To date there are none that I know of.

    Facts not in evidence. Do you have crystal ball that tells you who did the bombing?

    As opposed to threatening civil war?????

    If there was ever any doubt that Assange was a Putin operative all of that was laid to rest when RP produced all the wikileaks emails for a dump BEFORE wikileaks dumped them. Assange is a Russian operative plain and simple.

    Please provide examples of this BS claim.

    It's like the Tour de France.

    Journalism schools turnout so many majors that there isn't enough jobs. How can call young journalist get a job? With all the competition of course kids are going to lie on their resume. If thry didn't the ones who did would get all the jobs. You have to cheat to even compete.
