Yeah, but I gotta admit, I laughed when he said "North shore animal". Old, to be sure, but I can't help but laugh (well, point and laugh) when I consider that CNN fell for that old gag.

I always give thanks to Baba Booey's Monkey Nuts when I shop at Wal Mart..

WHY he hung up and didn't go through with it is beyond me.. hell, the woman didn't even know or wasn't paying attention. (unless someone cut the call which could have happened)

I think someone cut the call. She seemed fairly perplexed but kept trying to go on with the interview anyway.

She's either way stupid or doesn't listen to a word of the interviewee.

She's the Handsome Dan of CNN. (new window)

I only got to watch it once this morning.. watched it again (while playing it for someone else) and it does appear she was reading a prompter telling her she'd been had. The confusion on her face pretty much sums up she wasn't listening to a thing the guy said.

Was amazed to see just how many pranks are on YouTube with calls like this - would think they would all be pulled for some copyright BS or whatever to keep the embarrassment down lol

Are you referring to the prankster, or CNN itself?
