I really like Anderson Cooper more than any interviewer, I think he is a very thoughtful man and it comes across in his interviews. I think some of his past personal life has made him sensitive to others feelings, but like we saw during Katrina, he can kick behinds on air when he needs to!! That said, I am getting a bit weary of the "boo hoo" stories on his show, it is always a disaster somewhere and I have grown rather weary of seeing it all the time. That is the only reason I am not giving his show a 5 stars.
