Anderson Cooper 360°

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.

I used to love Anderson Cooper and his 360 show. But the election coverage has brought out the worst in him. He's getting as bad as Nancy Grace, arguing with guests, talking over people he disagrees with, etc. He is transparently a Hillary fan which is his prerogative. But, he should be reporting the news, not trying to make the news by trying to shove his opinions down people's throats.

I certainly hope he returns to the Anderson that I've always loved after this miserable election is over.

I just read that his daytime show is being canceled. I hope they do not cancel the "360" show. He's usually a very talented host. I think he has let this election change him into an opinionated ogre!!

Anderson Cooper is definitely not a radical leftist - greetings from Europe. Instead of dealing with such an analysis-free "thesis", one should just take a look at how Cooper deals with topics in a journalistic way: Sometimes he deals astutely with topics that either nobody else takes up or he questions circulating media discourses quite well. On the other hand, Cooper quickly jumps on a moving train when it comes to certain issues without questioning whether he should even take any of the train connections for this issue. So it is understandable that supporters of the former President of the USA Donald Trump are not too happy with Cooper, but that all of his reporting with the reckless mistakes and / or deliberate misjudgments regarding the Trump issue is unreflected and at least just as negligent. Anderson Cooper was also working journalistically with a hit and miss mission at Trump, but he should be credited with the fact that he was most likely to be able to question mistakes that he himself made in his journalistic work.

This show constantly tries to create hate against the POTUS. This show is biased and unfortunately radically left.

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.
