Mr. Anderson, (Cooper? Why do you guys always go by two last names? How's Tucker Carleton doin'? You guys ever give a listen to Wilson Phillips?)
I dare you to interview Nader and ask him what he thinks about George W. Bush. Or the Iraq War. Or the impeachment of the Thief In Chief. Or the destruction of Habeus Corpus and the rest of the Constitution. And the Project for the Next American Century. I triple-dog dare you to interview Noam Chomsky on these same items. Are you even allowed to? I have my doubts. I’m sure you understand. 360 degrees of bullshit is still bullshit, Anderson, and now's as good a time as any to pick up on that little gem.
Got balls, kiddo? Or not? Makes no difference to me. One of you guys is gonna crack and start telling the Real Story. Just lose it out there. Become Big Media’s Hamlet, go all post-modern on the set and find out that rather than getting fired the ratings shoot through the freaking roof, man! They try to cancel the dude and a huge audience that’s been starving for the Real Story actually backs his play. Brings dude back like Family Guy. We’re that hungry for Truth, man! We’d actually watch CNN for it! And you too, Andy!
Yes sir, one of you guys is gonna crack and start tellin’ the Real Story and the rest of you’ll be considering yourself lucky to be judging wet t-shirt contests for a quick buck in Ft. Lauderdale outside of fifteen years, way things are shaping up in America today. People are pissed and there’s all sorts of culpable jackals for people to blame but the one thing just about anybody can agree on, Lefty or Righty, is that the Media is full of shit. And you, friend, are the Media, as much as anybody on earth. And most have an inkling that you and guys like you totally shit the bed on Doing Your Job during the Gulf Deux lead-up lies, leading to Iraq, aka the big, deadly, expensive and stinking mess that every single one of your america citizens has to now find a way to deal with.
Not to mention the whole neoconservative thing? How exactly did you guys miss that? Things like PNAC, so you know, are classified as one of those things people like to know about during things like, for example THE 2000 ELECTIONS before these HIDEOUS FREAKS TOOK OFFICE! People like to know that the running VP is a sick and weird man with sick and weird fiend-buddies that share sick, weird dreams of world domination. People like to know about these things, Andy. It’s called the Real Story. And people want to hear it. All of it.
So do it. Save your soul. Start telling the Real Story, Andersen. Be That Guy. Better you than that chowderhead Zahn, I think we can all agree on that, right? Right. So, do it!
I dare you.
Sincerely,
Manny Duke
p.s. Got another one for you. I dare you to interview the protestors, Andy. Go out there on the street and grab a few of them. They’d love to talk to you. I promise. Be the easiest thing you could ever do, and yet it’s barely ever done. You know how many years I read about Cindy Sheehan before I actually heard her voice on your network? Thanks CNN! You’re the “Most Trusted Name in News!”

Thanks for your email. Here’s our problem. We want you to know that we really do read every single email you viewers send us. No, honestly. But reading your email is one thing, and composing individual answers to each one is another. That would be a full-time enterprise. In which case, there’d be no AC 360. In which case, there’d be no emails. You see where we’re headed.
Anyway, the best we can do is to acknowledge that we have indeed received and will read your message, and this little note is to let you know that. It’s automatic, yes; fails to take into account whether you’ve patted us on the back or slapped us across the face; does not differentiate between praise, correction, fury, proposals of marriage, or invitations to get lost. But rest assured we’ll know that part when we read it!
Thanks again for your interest. Go to CNN.com and click "Watch" for instant access to FREE Video!
