"FROM BROWN TO DOWN: Newscaster Aaron Brown's contract at CNN expired at the end of last month, a mere 610 days after his last CNN newscast. The network wanted to go with Anderson Cooper. An average of 62,000 viewers apparently didn't.

Since taking over for Brown, Cooper's audience in the 9 p.m. hour is off 7 percent in total viewers and 10 percent in the advertiser-friendly 25-to-54 demographic from Brown's average over the previous four years."

I wouldn't listen to retards like the Andersphere Quick Topics morons who populate "Unanchored" who try to say the numbers are better with Cooper. They are a "fanatic" group who will skew the numbers to suit themselves. They can't look at things objectively or from reality because they all think that the next time they see Anderson he will fall in love with them, it didn't happen the first, second or eighth time but next time it will. The same as the retard at PeterGay's group Anderson Cooper Effects. He has compiled an entire list of "meeting and marrying Anderson Cooper" things that are beyond creepy, compiled by a fag.

I think everyone should listen to Variety, Huffington and Chicago Tribune. They have no ulterior motive like the crack-head fans.
