Ric Romero is rushing to the news desk to file a report on this shocking turn of events.

Mega Steve		2012-07-02 12:22:20 PM

I am Mega Steve's complete lack of surprise

I LOL'd.

KhamanV		2012-07-02 12:22:44 PM

To no one's surprise, a considerable amount of applause, and probably a few horrified bleatings from some backwards jackasses.

MisterLoki		2012-07-02 12:22:47 PM

No wai!

Nightsweat		2012-07-02 12:22:52 PM

CNN is reporting that Anderson Cooper is straight! Wolf Blitzer will now discuss whether he's banging Scarlett Johanson.
...

Wait, a correction is coming through...

medius		2012-07-02 12:22:57 PM

ok, winner

iheartscotch		2012-07-02 12:23:16 PM

He's a fanny bandit? Nttawwt. Well; let's begin with the general mockery of fox news and conservatives, shall we?

Jim_Tressel's_O-Face		2012-07-02 12:23:19 PM

Really? Gosh, he had everyone fooled into thinking he was straight all this time! I am shocked, shocked to hear this news!

Old_Chief_Scott		2012-07-02 12:23:35 PM

Best headline. Well done submitter.

Serious Black		2012-07-02 12:23:44 PM

I guess there's only one question for Anderson Cooper now: does hit pitch or catch?

sandbar67		2012-07-02 12:24:05 PM

Cooper has the ghey? Color me a fucsia shade of SHOCKED

thenewmissus		2012-07-02 12:24:15 PM

Good for him.

I am not sure why people feel the need to share their sexual preference. To me, it should only be discussed if we are talking about dating or getting to know each other.

/seriously, good for him
//Anderson Cooper is hawt
///wish I were a gay man at this point
////next life maybe

Kuta		2012-07-02 12:24:42 PM

I thought the individual mandate was a "free rider tax"?

rynthetyn		2012-07-02 12:25:04 PM

You can always judge the severity of a natural disaster/political uprising by the tightness of the black t-shirt Anderson Cooper is wearing. That alone should have been a hint to people.

Nightsweat		2012-07-02 12:25:13 PM

In case it comes up, I still like pale redheaded women.

Mazzic518		2012-07-02 12:25:55 PM

Bout time he came out

BronyMedic		2012-07-02 12:26:04 PM

Really? This suprises anyone?

griffer		2012-07-02 12:26:04 PM

FABULOUS HEADLINE!

Great news.

rocketpants		2012-07-02 12:26:13 PM

Fabulous headline!

Coco LaFemme		2012-07-02 12:26:14 PM

The hell you say, subby. Anderson Cooper gay? I don't believe it.

DaAlien		2012-07-02 12:26:43 PM

The timing is suspicious: Notice this happened right after Tom Cruise went back on the market.

Sticky Hands		2012-07-02 12:27:03 PM

Wait... he wasn't out?

lackadaisicalfreakshow		2012-07-02 12:27:03 PM

Bears poop in woods, Pope wears funny hat, news at 11.

rocketpants		2012-07-02 12:27:36 PM

griffer: FABULOUS HEADLINE!

*shakes tiny limp wrist*

ladyfortuna		2012-07-02 12:27:37 PM

This brings a whole new angle to my fantasies about him. Shine on, Silver Fox.

Dirtybird971		2012-07-02 12:27:42 PM

I for one, am shocked! SHOCKED!!. and to think I thought a straight man was finally leading the day time fashion race.

DubyaHater		2012-07-02 12:27:50 PM

Personally, I don't care. He is extremely talented, a great reporter and I grew up watching him (from his Channel One days). Why are people so interested in his sexual orientation? When I watch him, I don't sit there wondering "Is he gay?". He is (from what I can tell) a good person who works hard and has earned every bit of his reputation. If he's found happiness in his personal life, I am happy for him. Some people will never find peace and happiness.
/And he's a Vanderbilt, which is just badass in my book.

griffer		2012-07-02 12:28:16 PM

SUCK IT!

Anderson, buddy: You can do better.

groppet		2012-07-02 12:28:48 PM

Wernt there pictures of him and his BF on a Mardis Gras float? Good for him though. Im sure at Fox they are figuring out ways to turn this into a national outrage.

karl2025		2012-07-02 12:29:00 PM

...So, apparently I'm the only person in the world that didn't know/suspect this?

griffer		2012-07-02 12:29:02 PM

What? I was shocked.

He totally giggled like a breeder.

Sofa King Smart		2012-07-02 12:29:11 PM

Anderson Cooper 180.

Marisyana		2012-07-02 12:29:16 PM

This is about as big a shock as when Ellen DeGeneres came out. Which means it wasn't.

FROGSTOMPER		2012-07-02 12:29:32 PM

yeah, that closet never had a door on it.

Rapmaster2000		2012-07-02 12:29:54 PM

Now if only he'd admit his show is terrible. WTF? The guy used to be an A-list reporter. Now he's like Maury.

Keep in mind what the article discussed. Anti-gay legislation, bullying, condemnation. It helps to have gay people who are high profile and can spread some understanding to straights and some hope to other gays.

HOTY candidate.

+1 subby!

Good for A.C. Who cares? He's great at his job and seems like a nice guy.

FirstNationalBastard		2012-07-02 12:30:35 PM

FROGSTOMPER: yeah, that closet never had a door on it.

And the sound of Judy Garland songs emanating from it didn't help matters, either.

Bees are livestock		2012-07-02 12:30:49 PM

I thought he had already came out , why is this news??

JDAT		2012-07-02 12:30:49 PM

I for one am shocked.

imontheinternet		2012-07-02 12:31:05 PM

"I'm incredibly shocked by this news," said nobody.

Cloudchaser Sakonige the Red Wolf		2012-07-02 12:33:02 PM

One of the strangest dreams I ever had was (sometime in 2011) when I was sitting in my car, having just pulled off the road to figure something out when suddenly, he opens my passenger door, gets in, sits down and is practically begging me to drive him to Atlanta

Hyjamon		2012-07-02 12:33:07 PM

Serious Black: I guess there's only one question for Anderson Cooper now: does hit pitch or catch?

Well, he does a good job staying on top of a story and getting to the bottom of things, does that help?
