3. Already did
I simply said it was some of the finest reporting I'd ever witnessed and he is both a brave and compassionate man.

6. Thanks for the link. I said Thank you, and Ben Franklin would be
proud (referencing Ben's statement that a Free Press is required for true democracy).

I added a note for his business managers as well: a news man with 'cajones' is good tv, good for ratings!

I read at DU that Cooper was trying to bait Mary Landrieu
and I read that she didn't take the bait. Go Mary!

26. Read the threads about Cooper for the last couple of days ...
I don't knopw what your impression is but cooper did his show with tremendous humanity and highlighted the horror of those suffering ... He won't accept 'talking points" as answers.

19. Hard to summarize really.
He just did a great job today. There are a few links to his coverage today.

Take a look. It's worth it.

21. Done and a kick for Anderson. I mentioned in my email that a few
of the CNN reporters are showing what's so needed in news reporting - real, raw emotion.
