Andrea Koppel, who left CNN last July after 14 years as an on-air correspondent, has joined M+R Strategic Services, a Washington, DC-based public relations firm with a long list of left of center and solidly left-wing clients, as chief of its Communications Division. Amongst the clients listed on the firm's Web site: Environmental Defense, Earthjustice, Natural Resources Defense Council, Union of Concerned Scientists, Turner Foundation, Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, People for the American Way, Campaign for America's Future, Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, National Organization of Women - New York State, NARAL Pro-Choice New York, Planned Parenthood Federation of America, as well as the radical left Center for Constitutional Rights and George Soros' Open Society Institute.

Koppel, the daughter of Ted Koppel, served as an international correspondent for CNN, then covered the State Department before spending her last months at CNN covering Capitol Hill. She proclaimed in the firm's press release that she wants to fight for “the voiceless in our society” as she embraced the “impressive roster of clients” and promised to help them “achieve their goals.”

>>>That’s a shame because she’s attractive.

Beauty is skin deep - Liberal ugly ideals trumps looks all the way to the bone.

[Perdogg]

I have seen her in person, much better looking than that.

[CRBDeuce]

This is “The Year of the Rat”, you know....probably added that to her resume, but couldn’t collect.

This just helps prove what Bernie Goldberg has been saying about the enemedia being run by the lefties.

[Digital Sniper]

The rats called. They don't like being unfavorably compared to vermin like Democrats.

;-)

[nuconvert]

So, she’ll fit right in

[Steely Tom]

And to think, she's kept her political leanings a total secret for all this time! I had no idea whatever she leaned to the left! Kudos for doing such an outstanding job of keeping your personal feelings away from your job as an objective, unbiased reporter for CNN, Andrea!

Just another commie in the MSM.
