Did Anderson Cooper Dominate Bears in the '70s?



OK, it's not what you think. I'm talking circus bears, not THOSE kinds of bears.

Take a look at an A-D-O-R-A-B-L-E 8 or 9-year-old Anderson Cooper in his first TV appearance. In the mid-'70s, an earnest-as-all-get-out and slightly overly serious young Anderson tries to pass himself off as a circus bear trainer in a stint on 'To Tell the Truth.'

My question is this: Did his mom, heiress Gloria Vanderbilt, give him her permission to wear her fur hat that day?

Kinda makes you want to read Dispatches from the Edge, doesn't it.

I still say OPRAH is gay. A master at it. Steadman has taken a back seat to Gayle since she came to Chichago and been under Oprah's Silver Wing.Why would she make a statment on TV that if Oprah
asked her to she " would marry her" That's an admission in my book.  I have suspected Steadman being used as a beard for 6 or more months now, and now he has gone. GOOD!Come on OPRAH  FESS UP! You love her don't you????? We'll stand by you.

I think Anderson Cooper is an awesome journalist and reporter, he has done an outstanding job reporting on Hurricane Katrina and the war in Iraq, in doesn't matter who is mother is, he has never used her, to get where he has gotten to today
