She's Back! Kathy Griffin Returns for More New Years Eve Fun on CNN
Kathy Griffin is back for another round on CNN's New Years Eve coverage. As Mediaite reported today, CNN is bringing back anchor Anderson Cooper and the left-wing comedienne as the network's New Years Eve team.
Griffin has ginned up her share of controversy in 2010, including this past summer when she called Sen. Scott Brown's daughters "prostitutes" on her Bravo show. During last year's CNN New Years Eve coverage, as the show's co-host, she dropped the F-bomb on-air.
But wait, there's more. Joining Cooper and Griffin during the program will be CNN anchors Kathleen Parker and Client #9, former New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer, co-hosts of CNN's ratings disaster "Parker-Spitzer."

I have no wish to revisit ANY of the deplorable Griffin's attempts at humor, relevance, or anything else. She has never been funny, and her increasingly desperate tactics to garner attention are looking more and more like the unfunny character she played on Seinfeld. She might as well do her "Jerry Seinfeld is the devil!!" act. Only they won't have audience laughter written into the script.
Client #9 is only slightly less repulsive.
What the H are these people thinking?

They aren't thinking, at least not with common sense. When I heard of this, I figured they might as well just do some reruns of previous years and just use computer graphics to change the numbers.

One of many reasons I haven't watched CNN in some time...and apparently millions of other viewers as well if their ratings are any indication.

So Anderson Cooper, aspiring "journalist" and royal dungree bloodlines....feigns disgust over the antics of the unfunny b&^%h Miss Griffin and now they are seeing an addition of Client Number 9 and RINO Parker....although I have yet to read anything conservative or rupublican like in anything she has said...Proudly, I have never watched their show.

Is it true that Griffin's father was gay? He was in a marriage of "convenience" and was not actually her father?

With Anderson Cooper and Kathy Griffin hosting, CNN should title this "A Gay New Years Eve". That's the only audience I can figure they're going after with the genius selection of this team. No matter what audience CNN seeks, I take heart in the fact that it will be a small one. Imagine ringing in the new year with this harpy's voice screeching in your ears.

CNN and Cooper/Griffin

So it's Griffin and Cooper again for New Years Eve, huh? Yawn. He's not a journalist and she not a comedienne. I quit watching CNN, HLN, TBS, and TNT years ago. HLN is just as bad as TMZ, Access Hollywood, and Extra. It's just Hollyweird gossip. TBS blew it when they hired Conan O'Brian.
