And Diplo — who's somebody, but I don't need to know who — calmly asserts that he's on LSD:They’re letting Anderson Cooper drink on TV again for New Year’s Eve.

CNN is getting desperate for ratings.

How are men these days supposed to enact the meaning of New Year's Eve? It's traditionally about drinking a lot of alcohol, but they don't want to do that, so they put on a little show of finding it hard to drink just one shot, and then they talk to a guy who calmly and humorously says he's on LSD and he's "not even lying." This stuff has gone viral, so credit to CNN. Do what you must. It's not the news.Diplo trips on LSD while appearing on CNN’s New Year’s Eve special.

Meanwhile, CNN brings out a representative of the opposite sex: Whitney Cummings woodenly delivers some jokes that have — predictably — gone viral because they mock Democrats:
NEW: Anderson Cooper stands completely speechless after Whitney Cummings says Dems couldn’t hold a primary because they were too busy holding up a dead body.

The entire network just seems so gay. It's not interesting television to the 98% of people who aren't trying to get into Anderson Cooper's pants.

This Diplo?
He's been dead nearly 70 years perfect fit for cnn
Diplo was a famous Puerto Rican comic from Naguabo

This stuff has gone viral, so credit to CNN. Do what you must.
Which is yet another way to say that some people never grow up.
Somebody got up on the wrong side of the sty this morning.
Not the side... the bottom.
Remember when the crisis actors at CNN were aghast that Pete Hegseth was allegedly drinking at work?

At our house it’s about the wife and I putting a modest quantity of sparkling wine in a champagne flute and toasting each other.
I was watching yellowstone
Looks like CNN had a gay ol' time. Anderson Cooper could've been doing a "bit" but then if Cooper is your comedy relief, you're in trouble. To honest, those two are incredibly boring. Bring back crazy Kathy Griffith.
And if Cooper - seriously - had problems with the booze, I'd give him a pass based on age. We're going to have a champagne breakfast, because we couldn't finish the bottle last night. We both konked out. LOL.
A lot of these things seem to scream "Look how much FUN we're having!", but it's quite evident they aren't having any fun at all.
Drink alcohol, yes. Consuming massive amounts, no. That’s the excuse alcoholics use to get hammered.
Meh, it's CNN. Whadda expect?
CNN did a lengthy interview with a cross-dresser who won a drag show contest (I read ... I certainly didn't watch this trash) during their New Year's celebration. Then when the clock struck midnight, they cut to two drunk dudes making out.
It's just WILDLY and flamboyantly gay in a way that seems deliberately designed to push heterosexual viewers (98% of their potential audience) aside.
Warner Brothers need to get rid of the gay Mafia that have taken over their news station if they ever hope to grow their ratings beyond this very small niche of people.
Circling the Drain…
I only know Diplo from his electronic mucic shannel on SiriusXM. And even then, I've never heard him speak; the channel consistrs of 99.9% music.
I miss Guy Lombardo and Ben Grauer.
Meanwhile, over at Instapundit I see people are slowly awakening to to a pair of Biden administration scandals that the newsmedia had been burying (unfortunately with some success). The first is FEMA’s abysmal response to Hurricane Helene out in Western North Carolina. Given her not-that-long-ago interest in tiny houses, you’d think Althouse might give a shout-out to Lowe’s for building 100 tiny houses (8’ x 16’, sleeps up to four) for people in for people who lost their homes — last September! — to the flooding caused by Helene. NASCAR used its haulers to get the tiny homes to where they are needed. That may not seem like much, but it is massive next to what FEMA has done in the intervening months. In typical Democrat fashion the agency makes big promises during press conferences, but actually delivers only a fraction of what they promised. The newsmedia report the promises, not the delivery.
And if you thought it was scandalous that Pete Buttigieg’s Department of Transportation was given $7.5 billion to build a half million EV charging stations and only eight have been built, wait until you check out the Biden administration’s broadband initiative. Back in 2021 Congress gave them $42 billion to bring the Internet to every home in the US of A. 1000 days later the number of home connected: ZERO. The person Joe Biden put in charge of this initiative? Kamala Harris. Perhaps she was too busy with her responsibilities as principal point person on the border.
The corrupt lying liar who lie democrat left (pro child abuse) deserve nothing BUT mocking and derision.
Why were you wasting your time watching that? You could have watched Seth Meyer re-runs of his day drinking segments.
Ragged masculinity.
It gets better:
"this is what I said at the end of my roast set on CNN tonight that I zoomed through because I was running out of time (and scared) : Since I only have a minute left and I’m live on an establishment media, I figured I’d list some of things mainstream media will never cover:
The first trump shooter didn’t have any silverware in his house,The Crown prince of Saudi Arabia put money into Disney, why is fluoride still in our water? Monsanto paid Google to skew search results, why are so many presidents chefs dead?"
The American media is so corrupt. So so so corrupt.
Imagine if someone tried to kill Joe or Kamala - we'd never hear the end of it.
Blackrock kid attempts to kill Trump - in an obvious soft location on a roof - (ends up killing an innocent bystander in the crowd) and the prepared response by the hack-D press is "the kid was a registered republican." (strange how so many "registered republicans" want to kill Trump) The golf course shooter – the liar Soviet-Democrat Media and their heinous loyal peons said the same thing. & It was a total lie. Again.
Meanwhile - the press doesn't delve into the FBI/CIA/ paid patsy kid on a roof - because they are told not to. Again - if some kid tried to kill a democrat - we would know everything about that person.
And can we lay off the gay bashing, people? That would be a nice New Year's resolution for some of you upthread.
"Kamala was forced on us so hard you'd think she was patented by Pfitzer."
totally.
Charmingly? Not to my tastes, but some people love it.
I think most people would lay off the gay bashing if the networks stopped pretending to convince their remaining viewers that every man is gay, that every couple is bi-racial, and that the only normal people out there are fully woke and vote a certain way 100% of the time, and so forth, and so on.
You can't blame people when they criticize phonies.
"presented by LISTERINE"
Seems appropriate for some reason.
CNN could roll out Dick Clark's corpse and do better.
Glad to find another Lombardite.
You missed the other half of the FEMA story ... their other big news yesterday was renting 117,000 sq feet of office space (gee, I wonder from who?) 'to assist with disaster relief'
Look at how much we know about the guy who killed Brian Thompson
""presented by LISTERINE"
Seems appropriate for some reason."
A LOT of television "news" should promote Listerine as a body wash.
If I'm not mistaken, Diplo is CNN's diplomatic correspondent. When I knew him he was still going by the name Christiane Amanpour.
Are gays above criticism?
I'd never successfully taken a shot until last Mother's Day, when the bartender at the restaurant where we were eating in Costa Rica, having been helpfully informed by my husband that it was American Mother's Day, sent one to our table. So. My first-ever shot, in 58 years of life, downed with great difficulty in front of my three kids, one of whom has been sober for almost four years but recalled his former ways and pushed my soda closer so I'd have a chaser I didn't hate.
Because I hate tequila. I never thought I'd take the first (and God, I hope the only) shot of my life out of politeness.
Those aren't men. Those are over-the-hill homos.
Since the lgbt community has caused a tremendous amount of cultural damage and gays inaugurated its insanity, my new years resolution is to not give 2 fucks about homos and their fruity feelings.
@tcrosse, no, gays are not above criticism. A gay man who gets a job as a bookkeeper but who pitches vendor invoices into the trash (this really happened) can be criticized for taking a job he can’t be bothered to do — and fired for not doing it! — but criticizing a good, hardworking employee, just for being gay is not legitimate. Criticizing Anderson Cooper for being an assuole is legit. Criticizing him for being gay, why is that relevant?
And using “gay” as a pejorative is, as the Brits say, right out.
cooper's an entitled brat, amanpour is on bbc
Well, for starters they could involve real men, not poor simulacrums of men. A shot of alcohol at midnight ,eh, so what. It is a particular night so.
My wife was watching, "The Art of Crime" in French and I was reading "Slow Horses" and not being able to keep my eyes open. So around nine or so I went to bed.
Have to second Big Mike's comments.
@minnesota farm guy, much obliged.
"And can we lay off the gay bashing, people? That would be a nice New Year's resolution for some of you upthread."
Fuck you. Quote what you think is "Gay Bashing" - Mr. Censorship.
Jamie. Nice comment. I've never liked tequila straight. Its only good as part of a Margarita. Its odd that Cohen is drinking tequlia. The man is a multi-millionaire. Cant he afford some martini's or expensive scotch?
It's pretty boring TV to watch people get drunk. Is it any wonder CNN ratings [s]tank?
Boring troll - I'll just say outraegous things until someone responds. Pathetic.
That someone has a finger on the Delete key.
I guess it's a matter of opinion, but I didn't think Whitney's delivery was "wooden" at all. I don't know who she is, but I thought she was pretty good, in fact.
This. The notion of gay sex is revolting to me and gives an automatic gag response. I hate when gay sex is now just common place on most TV shows and movies. I have no issue with consenting adults doing what they want in private, but stop shoving it down our throats.
Tequila is not 'all the same'. Some is Drano by a different name. Some mid-grade stuff is useful for shots. Some (Don Julio was my first choice) is worthy of being enjoyed neat. Anyone putting premium tequila in a Margarita is either 'silly' or a show-off. For the bar, it's a great way to pad your tab.
For the record, I was a Martini Man. I have pictures of every perfect one ever served to me. Cold glass/swirl a few drops of vermouth and toss/fill with good gin straight from the freezer (Tanqueray is not on the OK list). If you must have an olive, order a salad. Six and a half years ago, the Doc in the ER said my over/under number for staying on the green side of the grass was 90 days. I said, "Hold my beer" and never went back to get it. No plan, no program, just a decision.
Tell me again about Pete Hegseth?
I can't believe that CNN puts on such a depraved New Year's Eve show and then tries to take the high moral ground when speaking of any GOP nominee or candidate.
CNN NYE hosted by 2 gay males. Natch.
Oh God, there must be a tequila gene. I love it. I can swish it around in my mouth. Therefore, I never drink it.
Dixcus, I was thinking that as well. Hegseth on TV drunk --- which he was not --- is ghastly. A guest on CNN being on LSD is fine.
Then again, they also platformed Richard Spencer not long ago.
You think he commented ‘woodenly’, Ann? I thought she was brilliant and funny. But then it was not my ox being gored
