No matter what vulgar things Kathy Griffin does on CNN's live New Year's Eve broadcasts, the folks at the supposedly most trusted name in news continue to invite her back.
On Monday night's program, after first telling co-host Anderson Cooper "I'm going to tickle your sack," she shortly after midnight actually kissed his crotch (video follows with transcribed highlights and commentary):
Roughly eleven minutes into the program which began at 10 PM, Cooper commented about how on Twitter folks were suggesting that there should be a game that whenever he giggles nervously during the show, contestants have to take a drink.
Then, completely out of the blue, Griffin said, “I'm going to tickle your sack. You can say sack. That's not bad.”
An obviously nervous Cooper responded, “I don't know what you're talking about. I have no sack of gifts here.”
Griffin then suggested the camera pan lower so the audience can see her “naughty gestures.”
When Cooper continued to try and clean it up by again referring to a sack of Christmas presents, Griffin asked, “You’re calling your privates your Christmas presents?”
When Cooper said, “No,” Griffin replied, “That’s typical hot guy. ‘Let’s open up the Christmas presents.’”
But Griffin wasn’t finished with her lewd behavior.

As she continued to try to kiss it, Cooper asked her, “Did you drop something?”
“No, I was kissing your sardine,” Griffin replied.
“Thank you. I got it,” giggled Cooper......................No wonder CNN is going down.
Kissing anything on Anderson Cooper is not normal, but for Kathy Griffin on “meds” it is!
Commiecare™ covers that.
Being that he’s openly gay, he could (and should) sue her and CNN for sexual harassment and hostile workplace conditions.
The lake of fire awaits her.
Who’s the teabagger now, Cooper?
Stay classy Griffin. You really must have given old Anderson the Gay a real choke-back puker moment.
“Being that he’s openly gay, he could (and should) sue her and CNN for sexual harassment and hostile workplace conditions.”
Not really sure, and I’m not volunteering to find out, but:
that horse faced baboon Kathy Griffin has always had me wondering. How exactly is she ‘equipped’ downstairs?
The liberal obsession with teabagging...
Griffins’ morals are so low that she makes shame appear to be a virtue.
Just another of several hundred reasons why I NEVER watch network TV.
This is probably the only time in history that Anderson Cooper and I would both throw up a little in our mouths.
what a depraved lunatic I hope her lips fall off
Who is this person? Is she the one married to the old football player?
If a man had done that to a woman on national TV, his career would have been destroyed.
Lol - gotta give Cooper a little credit here for trying to keep things PG.
Wasn’t Cooper the one who coined that derogatory term for the tea party movement?
I don’t know who’s more disgusting and embarrassing......Kathy Griffin or Roseanne Barr.....hmmmm, they’re probably related. Sad thing is they have a following that keeps them in the headlines and in the money. Now THAT’S disgusting and embarrassing also.
Wardrobe malfunction.
Griffin is just plain filthy. CNN knew this when they booked her and should have immediately gone to another reporter and kept the broadcast there until they got her off camera. Goes to show how filthy CNN and tv has become. Angus of Two and a Half Men was right.
I think that is Frank GIFFORD.
‘STAY CLASSY GRIFFIN’?
What is classy about that trash??
that was just a classic example of why CNN is worthless as a news network..
I did not view the event, just read about it and that was more than enough...in fact never watch CNN, better networks to watch...
THAT, Cooper would have enjoyed.
You’re thinking of Kathy Lee Gifford who was/is married to Frank Gifford. Kathy Griffin is a D-list “comedian” who tries to stay relevant by being an obnoxious whore.
Anderson Cooper adjusts Kathy Griffith’s bikini ...
I’m going to go out on a limb and say that Gaffer meant that sarcastically.
CNN bookmark
Just like Dick Gregory and his 30rd. illegal magazine it’s just news folks, nothing to see here. Move along citizen.
The term is not one of endearment. Morelike derision.
Of course there isn’t anything classy about this hag. She spends most of her money trying to gussy up the hagged-out sparse haired mop of matted gnarly dog fur she calls hair and then moves on to that ugly, ugly face and featureless body she has.
She is a marvel of concealment, disguise that puts Phyllis Diller to shame.
Were you to see her unplussed in the true morning’s light you’d swear you just saw Gollum from Lord of the Rings.
"Griffin is an LGBT rights activist involved in causes such as same-sex marriage and the repeal of "Don't ask, don't tell". She has also participated in two USO tours. Influenced by acts such as Joan Rivers and Don Rickles, Griffin is known for her conversational style and controversial statements on pop culture, religion and sexuality. She is recognized as one of the top female comedians in the United States. In 2011, she became the first comedian to have four television specials in a year."

And that's why the Left loves her.
And you would be precisely correct. Honestly, I did not even hazard to opine that a “/s” would be necessary in this case.
The term was old, the rats just hung it around the neck of conservatives. But I got into knockdown, drag down fight with a hysterical lib who claimed it was “The discourse of serious dissent”. Turned out that that particular insaniac was a federal justice.
Anderson was hoping for Obama,would have settled for Barney,but ends up with Kathy.
Good Lord. Not that I ever put much value in CNN, but could anyone conceivably imagine this kind of depraved insanity happening on the network back twenty years ago, when Bernard Shaw was their newscaster?
Twenty years ago now seems almost like a straight-laced Victorian Era compared to the grotesque debauchery and sleaze rampant in the culture nowadays. And damn, I thought things were already pretty bad back then! Just another little signpost of the country’s rapidly-accelerating cultural rot and decay. Coupled with the fiscal insanity, I truly don’t see how the country lasts much longer. When I see stuff like this, I even question whether the country is even worth bothering to save.
It shouldn’t have been necessary.
Welcome to the new normal, where high school lasts forever and no one ever graduates.
I thought Anderson would have liked being hit on by an old male tranny.
She’s not the one married to the old football player. Different Kathy Griffin.
More evidence that Kathy Griffin is actually a gay guy dressed up like a woman
She’s the skank who paraded around her little lapdog Levi Johnson back when he was trying to get his fifteen minutes by badmouthing the Palin family.
I hope we will all stay out of the muck. contribute to the best that is, not was America. Teach your children about the excellence in writing, reading and standards that should be. Turn off the foolishness of reality TV and stupidity of todays journalism.
Dress when you go to church. Give thanks when you are about to eat. Work out to keep your body and mind fit. Read, read and read. Interest your children in great literature by speaking about it and peaking their interest.
Answer the folly that is our Administration, by actually knowing what the constitution says and what our rights are.
Do not give in to the lowering of standards but instead raise the bar!!!
We can be strong again if we are the example of excellence and are the example our children long for.
The best way is to not comment verbally, but with pride stand for what is right in deed!
I look forward to the return of the excellence in education, home and church. But someone has got to want it......I DO!
my resolution for this year.....live a life of excellence, i am starting by enrolling in a class, maybe HIllsdale, to know our rights and constitution.
Join me and cut literally this crap out of your life! Tune out the garbage...dont allow it in your home or in your speech.
ok...thanks for hearing me out ;) Happy New Year!
Kathy Griffin is the disgusting, very old, nasty-looking so-called comedianne (who isn’t funny) uberleftist nutjob.
And they say all the good ones are taken.
I think any other network would have cut away for a commercial break...and someone read that hobag the riot act...
I hope the FCC fines the hell out of them...
Now, a lot of people come up here and thank Jesus for this award. I want you to know that no one had less to do with this award than Jesus. He didn't help me a bit. If it was up to him, Cesar Millan would be up here with that damn dog. So all I can say is suck it, Jesus, this award is my God now![32]
Griffin later explained that she meant this remark not as a slight on Jesus, but rather as a satire of celebrities who thank Jesus profusely and nonsensically for their awards, especially artists who themselves are controversial in their speech and actions.[33]
Her remarks were quickly condemned by the Catholic League which urged the academy to "denounce Griffin's obscene and blasphemous comment."[34] The Academy said that her "offensive remarks will not be part of the E! telecast on Saturday night".[35] Griffin later responded, "Am I the only Catholic left with a sense of humor?"[36] Fox News commentator Bill O'Reilly called Griffin a "pinhead" for her remark, which Griffin considered a "badge of honor."[37][38]
She is disgusting and not funny - why would anyone watch CNN at all, let alone during a Twilight Zone marathon?
Great post...
This will become fodder for an editorial.
