CNN’s Cooper: Criticism of Thunberg Town Hall Appearance Based on ‘Made Up’ Info – Trump Jr. ‘Just Wants His Dad to Love Him’
Breitbart.com ^ | 5/15/2020 | Ian Hatchett

Posted on 05/15/2020 11:02:24 AM PDT by rktman

During CNN’s coronavirus town hall on Thursday, host Anderson Cooper reacted to the criticisms the network received for booking Greta Thunberg for its coronavirus town hall by stating they were critiques based on “made up” information and were part of “a cycle of phony outrage.” Cooper also said that one critic, Donald Trump Jr., is “attacking CNN and a 17-year-old Swede” because he “just wants his dad to love him or notice him in a way that’s not mocking him.”

Cooper began by showing the initial ad for the program that CNN ran, which was later updated to include MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred.

Cooper continued, “I get Donny Trump, Jr. attacking CNN and a 17-year-old Swede. That’s like low-hanging fruit. It’s like paying thousands of dollars to shoot exotic animals on a game farm, you know, it’s easy. And I know Donny Jr. just wants his dad to love him or notice him in a way that’s not mocking him. But I just find it fascinating to watch the phony online outrage machine generate content on Twitter based on something that was never real to begin with. It’s kind of surreal to watch it all just kind of play out. In the words of our dear leader, sad.”

Cooper was raised exusively by his mother, wasn’t he?

Seem to recall that they shared a bed.

Totally tone deaf and detached from reality in their little incestuous hot house. They really don’t grasp who pathetic and foolish they look.

[[stating they were critiques based on “made up” information]]

Ummmm- Nope- Bzzzzt- Wrong- the critique of her appearing is not based on made up info- you featured her- that is a fact- our critique is that a high school drop out isn’t an expert on covid or climate change- our critique states that CNN is so pathetic- they can’t even put together a panel of actual experts-

I though he was reared by an older man...

Why can’t Cooper and CNN defend their decision to feature Greta on a discussion of the virus?

Is she some avatar of virus research, as she has been deemed to be an avatar on global warming? Even if you think she has been a good activist as the face of global warming, what does global warming have to do with a virus outbreak?

No, he just likes to get reared by older men.

By referring to Greta and CNN as “low hanging fruit”, Cooper seems to be admitting that the town hall is lame.

Wow that was tacky, Andersons father died when Anderson was 10, must really be problems from that, plus it was his moms 4th husband.

What an embarrassment CNN has turned into. There are plenty of valid criticisms of old-time guys like Cronkite, but he'd never have descended to this kind of childishness. Cooper is a joke, as is his network.

WTF!?

So any objectivity or rational discourse has been completely thrown out of CNN (not surprising)

Anderson Cooper going after Ellen Degeneres’ show?

So anyway - under/over that Kathy Griffin is the mother to Anderson’s kid?

Next stop for greta: Either biden’s climate control “panel” (”come a little closer dear. You’re well endowed for a 16-year-old.) or as al gore’s next masseuse.
