Moron of the Month - January 2024

Happy 2024 when stupidity still promises to reign supreme.

Here's our latest monthly moronic entry.  You see above Andy Cohen and Anderson Cooper doing CNN's coverage of New Year's Eve in Times Square.  Why anybody would tune into this is beyond me.   Why anybody bothers to even know what channel CNN is would be also beyond me.  Nevertheless, they continue the tradition of trotting these two idiots to watch the ball drop.

Now to say Andy Cohen is a moron would be a redundant factor.  This guy has parlayed a media career without having an ounce of talent except to appeal to the low IQ audience that watches his Real Housewives shit.  Being a deputy in Kelly Ripa's gay entourage is also not a discernable talent.  

But Anderson Cooper?   He is allegedly a "journalist."  You notice the air quotes there?  Trust me, Walter Cronkite's legacy doesn't have to worry about a thing with Cooper now sitting behind an anchor's desk.  He wouldn't have a career except for the money inherited from his mom selling jeans made by 10 year-olds in Malaysia.

At the same time, even with a lack of discernible journalistic credibility, Cooper needs to display some level of decorum.   Well, it went out the window one more time this past New Year's Eve as the two clowns resumed their annual on-air party of doing tequila shots on the air.  First off, it is a complete "fuck you" to anybody with alcohol addiction issues.  But, after a few "sips" the other night, Anderson started to laugh uncontrollably like somebody was tickling his scrotum.  It was a clear and present embarrassment.  In sheer desperation, I switched over to...gasp...Ryan Seacrest and his monopoly over TV air waves.

Again, we don't expect any civility from Andy Cohen.   But let's get a thimble of some from a person who we are supposed to revere and trust.

I know how that sounds.  Trusted authority Anderson Cooper.  It's a comic scenario.  But, at the very least, Anderson should put out a little effort at least.

Dinner last night:  Leftover pork tenderloin.
