Anderson Cooper is most definitely in the bag for the Republicans,

47. Would you say, eg, that Democrats do what Breitbart/O'Keefe do to destroy a political figure?

And if you agree with AC on that, could you give us some examples of any Democratic group that can be compared to those rightwing liars and smear merchants? I asked Anderson Cooper for examples, as did a lot of people, after he made that claim, but he never answered. And that is just one incident.

If he is a Democrat, then he is a Democrat who is so afraid of what the Right might think of Democrats that he bends over backwards to prove how 'even-handed' he is. Either way, his 'moral equivalency' tactic is disgusting and totally unprofessional.

I said, and I will repeat, he is not a rabid right wing by any means and sometimes he does go after Republicans when there is really no way not to. But he tries to 'balance' it whenever he does.

It reminds of Katie Couric during the Abramoff affairs. That was a totally Republican operation, and it was on purpose, they wanted to get rid of Democratic lobbyists so there was no doubt. Yet, Katie Couric, like Anderson Cooper, tried to claim that 'both parties' are responsible. I wrote about that at the time, listing for her, the names of every perp involved in that scandal and their party affiliation. There was not a single Democrat.

We don't need apologists when we finally catch Republicans red-handed who attempt to diminish their guilt by claiming 'both sides do it'. Maybe it's the media, maybe he is required to do it, but it's a pretty weak person who would go along with that kind of deception imo.
