CNNs Anderson Cooper Attack in Cairo
CNNs closet gay Anderson Cooper and his camera crew were attacked in Cairo yesterday after they decided to take an afternoon constitutional past a herd of angry Egyptians. I cant imagine where it all went wrong. Us Magazine says:
The news anchor, 43, and his team were besieged by an angry mob of pro-government forces supporters of Egypts controversial President Mubarak near the ancient citys Tahrir Square.
My team were set upon by the crowd, Cooper said on CNN this morning via telephone. There was no rhyme or reason to itit was just people looking for a fight, looking to make a point, and punching us.
A Twitter post reports that Anderson was punched ten times in the head. Cooper, who is reportedly alright despite the attack, added that the crowd unsuccessfully attempted to take his crews camera.
This is just my crackpot theory, but perhaps if youre the rich white poster child for the Great Satan, you might not want to traipse through an angry mob in a Middle Eastern country embroiled in political unrest. Save that for someone more equipped to deal social instability. Like Paris Hilton, for example.
