Kathy Griffin Feels ‘Betrayed’ by Anderson Cooper After CNN Firing
New York Post ^ | June 2, 2017 | Emily Smith

While Kathy Griffin continues her sympathy crusade after weathering a storm of criticism for her terrible Trump severed-head photo, sources say she’s seething about how Anderson Cooper dropped her from his CNN New Year’s Eve broadcast like a hot potato.

Sources said Griffin had expected CNN “golden boy” Cooper to stand by her, but the news network swiftly announced she was fired from the NYE broadcast with Cooper, which they’ve done together for 10 years.

TV insiders say respected newsman Cooper had no choice but to condemn Griffin’s disturbing photo shoot, in which she held up a faux severed and bloody head of President Trump.

Cooper’s response was key here. CNN had to act when their main guy forced it.

The image of the bromanic brothers kissing on New Years as the ball drops is nauseating.

If she keeps looking long enough, to find out who is to blame, she should run into a mirror eventually.

Of course that didn’t work with Hillary did it.

How about New Year’s Eve on Al Jezeera.. She could drop a head instead of a ball.

I don’t. The only time I ever see her or hear about her is in connection with some dumb-assed stunt she pulled to get attention. I don’t usually experience her directly — only as she is reported on here. A few years ago I had trouble sleeping and turned on the TV. She was on Comedy Central. I watched for about ten minutes. It was painfully bad, even by the lame standards of modern stand up comedy. Life is too short for me to waste any more of it on Kathy Griffin.

I can't help but notice the similarities between griffin and the hildabeast.

They both refuse to take ownership of their actions.

They both blame President Trump for their downfall.

They are both radiating the blame for their failure further out each publicity session.

They both have played the feminist victim card.

How long will it take for griffin to blame the Russians?

Someone should point out to her those death threats she is whining about are “art.” Edgy? Sure. Cross the line? Sure, but that is what art is about, right?

She should feel betrayed. The media have been covering up and protecting all the Trump haters. The only reason they aren’t protecting her is they know she went too far and produced something that can be used against the Dems in the mid-terms, something you don’t have to be a Beltway insider to understand.

I’m still trying to figure out why she had her lawyer (Lisa Bloom) there with her at the press conference. If she goes to court to sue Trump she’ll get the biggest laughs that she has ever gotten from the Court and the Judge.

So Kathy, it’s your punch bowl, your turn and your problem .... deal with it! You could probably ask Benghazi Clinton for some advice.

If you’ve ever seen her on the show, she immediately tries to take off all her clothes. She’s impossible to watch. And I’m sure Anderson is not interested in her body.

Maybe Melania has started to breathe fire about this.

Kathy Griffin, alas, has lost the adoration of Anderson Cooper, but....hope springs eternal. The mentally retarded, Ms. Griffin is welcomed with open arms by Jon “Pajama Boy” Ossoff, Democrat candidate for congress in the Georgia 6th CD. These two loving birds of a feather belong together. Griffin can hop on down to Georgia and campaign side by side with her latest adoree, “The Pajama Boy, Ossoff”!!!
