Anderson Cooper 'genuinely sorry' for 'crude' remark directed at Jeffrey Lord

Because his Mother is Gloria Vanderbilt.

The RATS are spiraling out of control!

What happened here is that Anderson saw himself on TV later doing this segment and said, “Oh sh—!” At his age and placement in his job, he still shows a stunning lack of self-awareness, so I’ve got no respect for him. In his warped brain, he was having a few beers with some other degenerate-liberals instead of being on TV.

Cooper is far from a professional. Compare him to a Brett Baier. Huge difference.

He belongs to a protected class, else he would be gone.

Harvard Study Confirms Media Bias Against Trump Written by Bob Adelmann Friday, 19 May 2017 15:00 Print Email font size decrease font size increase font size Harvard Study Confirms Media Bias Against Trump Thomas Patterson, Harvard’s Bradlee Professor of Government and the Press, opened his study of “News Coverage of Donald Trump’s First 100 Days” by noting not only that President Trump was the topic of more than 40 percent of all news stories during his first 100 days (three times the amount of press coverage received by previous presidents), but also that the coverage he received “set ... a new standard for unfavorable press coverage of a president.” What’s surprising isn’t Patterson’s conclusion, which readers of The New American likely agree with, but the source: the Harvard Kennedy School’s Shorenstein Center on Media, Politics and Public Policy. Heavily influenced for decades by the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), Harvard would hardly likely be the source of a study showing and proving such mainstream media bias. Nevertheless the 19-page study was released to the public on Thursday proving beyond all reasonable doubt that the mainstream media’s “fix” is in: to portray the 46th president of the United States in the worst possible light. Initially the mainstream media (MSM) was delighted to let Donald Trump take most of the headlines during his campaign for the Republican Party’s nominee. Wrote Patterson: “When he announced his presidential candidacy, journalists embraced him, and he returned the favor. Trump received far more coverage, and far more positive coverage, than did his Republican rivals.” But following his nomination, and as his chances improved that he might actually win the presidency over the media’s favored candidate, the media chaned its tone dramatically: “Only after he had secured the Republican nomination did the press sharpen its scrutiny and, as his news coverage turned negative, Trump turned on the press.” Trump specifically named six of the seven primary sources that Shorenstein’s study analyzed for bias: the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, CBS Evening News, CNN’s The Situation Room, and NBC Nightly News. The study also included Fox’s Special Report and three European news outlets: the Financial Times, the BBC, and ARD, Germany’s oldest public service broadcaster. In one of his tweets about media bias, Trump declared that “the election is being rigged by the media, in a coordinated effort with the Clinton campaign” and, as Patterson expressed it, “it’s been a running battle ever since.” Initially Trump was “a journalist’s dream” wrote Patterson, adding that “reporters are tuned to what’s new and different, better yet if it’s laced with controversy. Trump delivers that type of material by the shovel full. Trump was also good for business. News ratings were slumping until Trump entered the arena.” Patterson stepped his way through the analysis, noting that “negative news reports outpaced positive ones by 80 percent to 20 percent ... in no week did the coverage drop below 70 percent negative and it reached 90 percent negative at its peak.” He noted that coverage by CNN and NBC “was the most unrelenting — negative stories about Trump outpaced positive ones by 13-to-1 on the two networks. Trump’s coverage on CBS also exceeded the 90 percent marker. Trump’s coverage exceeded the 80 percent level in the New York Times (87 percent negative) and Washington Post (83 percent negative). The Wall Street Journal came in below that level (70 percent negative), a difference largely attributable to the Journal’s more frequent and more favorable economic coverage.” The MSM’s coverage during Trump’s first 100 days “was not merely negative in overall terms,” wrote Patterson, “[but] it was unfavorable in every dimension. There was not a single major topic where Trump’s coverage was more positive than negative.” Some topics, such as Trump’s immigration policies, generated negative to positive ratios that exceeded 30-to-1. Coverage on healthcare reform and Russia’s alleged involvement were 87 percent negative, while MSM coverage of Trump’s appointees, his personal background, his foreign policy and defense positions “were at least 80 percent negative,” said Patterson. It was all of a pattern, concluded Patterson: “When Trump’s category-by-category coverage was examined for each of the seven U.S. news outlets in our study, a consistent pattern emerged. The sources of Trump’s most and least negative coverage were similar for every outlet, except for Fox News.” Patterson went further: the press’ coverage of Trump exceeded anything comparable to previous presidents: Trump’s coverage during his first 100 days was negative even by the standards of today’s hyper-critical press. Studies of earlier presidents found nothing comparable to the level of unfavorable coverage afforded Trump … [media coverage] during his first 100 days ... were 4-to-1 negative over positive.... The sheer level of negative coverage gives weight to Trump’s contention ... that the media are hell bent on destroying his presidency. As he tweeted a month after taking office, “The FAKE NEWS media (failing @nytimes, @NBCNews, @ABC, @CBS, @CNN) is not my enemy, it is the enemy of the American People!” Patterson noted that “the media’s credibility is at a low ebb [because of] a belief that journalists are biased.” The Harvard study proves it. But the study doesn’t dwell on the coordination of efforts by the media to destroy the Trump presidency with its evident bias. One must look elsewhere for that. One of the best sources for understanding the CFR’s control of the Washington establishment was penned by Professor James Perloff, author of The Shadows of Power: The Council on Foreign Relations and the American Decline, in an article appearing at TheNewAmerican.com. Another source exposing the CFR’s history of infiltrating the mainstream media is that provided by Ned Dougherty. Thanks to the surprising revelations from Harvard’s Shorenstein Center there’s no longer any need to speculate about the media’s deliberate determination to destroy the Trump administration with their biased reporting, if they can. As Patterson was closing his analysis, he noted that the battle will continue for as long as Trump is in office: The news media gave Trump a boost when he entered presidential politics. But a head-on collision at some point was inevitable. It’s happened, it isn’t pretty, and it isn’t over.

Liberals, if they do nothing else, they project. Pooper would slam Trump if he walked on water.

*pardon last post’s formatting disaster.

Called out then he apologizes. Right......

Wow! Lol

Earlier this week, at the height of the MSM’s witch hunt when it had worked itself into a slobbering lather, during one of wifey’s shows some Fox news shill interrupted and cited President Trump’s statement that he was the “target of the greatest witch hunt in history” and the filthy little weasel gratuitously added “Clinton might disagree ... “ reminding me of why I no longer watch Fox or any TV “news” shows.

Lord should have replied to Cooper:

“The great news is President Trump’s tapeworm problem is all cleared up now”

Never let the b*st*rds get ya down!

I think it was Dana PeRINO, of all people, who said on The Five last night that she was going to start calling him Anderson Pooper.

If Donald would only tweet that out, he'd be hung with it in perpetuity. Probably be the first CIA asset with that nick.

I think I’ll start calling him Ben Dover . . .

“Pooper would slam Trump if he walked on water.”

Pooper would say Trump can’t swim.

Adam Curry on the No Agenda podcast has been calling him Anderson Pooper for a couple of years.

Usually worth a listen. Uncle Don would be embarrassed by A-Poop.

Lord should have replied to Cooper:

Well, I’m sure that you know a whole lot about poop, Ben.

None of them are professional. If they were professional, they would fairly cover Trump.

If CommieNN had the slightest credibility they would have fired him yesterday for that comment about the President of the United States.

So she thinks it’s a big joke demeaning the President like this? There are numerous countries this guy would not be breathing after that statement.
