Anderson may be a great person. But a television speaker he is not. Every evening there is something he says that I cannot understand. He rushes the words together and mumbles. I cringe when I hear he is about to do an interview. It seems he may not prepare questions in advance, or he veers away from any he has prepared. He seldom states a complete, succinct sentence. His questions have a lingering, distant quality that are difinitive. He certainly looks the part, however, the performance is what is lacking. I see why they have cut his show down from two hours. It is a shame that through the weekday evening there is not a concise, varied real news show on CNN....not opinion. Yes....on CNN Mr. Mumbles he is. But I heard him on 60 Minutes the other night and WOW....he was clear and his annunciation was ok. I had to do a double take to see if that was him.
Bottom line: he just needs to work harder at CNN. Prepare more, be more sussinct and clear...."channel Walter Cronkite ", don't giggle, amnunciate.

This show constantly tries to create hate against the POTUS. This show is biased and unfortunately radically left.
I nearly choked when I read tonight that Mr Cooper believes he is unbiased and non partisan. Hate can be spewed without actually saying "hate". He does it daily and yet you can see how he believes his sanctimonious diatribes where the president is concerned. I'm guessing in his life he has known what it feels like to be vilified. Perhaps he might want to take a step back, remember his stature and not be so quick to call the president a "little man". Whoever the president, they have agreed to carry the weight of our country on their shoulders. At least try to be respectful of that agreement no matter what party alignment or candidate you back.
I'm not as much of a fan of CNN now that they have opted to go with a bunch of new people giving the news and even commentary as opposed to just news.
I'm not sure that I blame Anderson Cooper in person for this negative effect on the CNN franchise, but he is one of those that I would rather not see unless he's just giving news.
I think it's because I always saw CNN as a means to just news without commentary, without lots of color or modification. News in the raw as it happens.
Lately they have brought on a group of people that do commentary, discussion, and fluff and regretfully this show by Anderson Cooper is one of them.
Bring back the news as it is, raw and unscripted.

Back in the day, my first impression of Anderson was he had no idea how to structure an interview or how to ask questions.
He always seemed reluctant to ask follow up questions and push the conversation.
His speech also trails off as he approaches the end of a sentence or question.
Questions should NOT be speeches. You will lose your audience and cause the interviewee to become more defensive and cautious Speaking, whether in front of a live audience or a live microphone is ALL about maintaining tone, sound modulation and breathing. Anderson has yet to learn that. He mumbles ALOT. Voiceis a problem with most of the talking heads on TV. They ALL need voice coaches, and off screen practice.
