As we mentioned this summer, Anderson Cooper briefly left CNN for GNN! That's the Grouch News Network for those not Sesame Street-savvy. Here's his hard hitting interview from a trash can (if anyone has a better quality video let us know!)...
That Dan Rather-not sure seems tough to work with! Throughout the years the Street has had a lot of A-list visitors, the list even rivals that of SNL guests hosts -- check it out here.





I saw that on Sesame Street the other day (I have a two-year-old). Definitely the best thing Anderson Cooper has ever done on television. My respect for him went up tremendously (it was at zero to begin with).
Dan Rather-Not was a hoot.
And I haven't seen Sesame Street in ages, so the new version of the theme song always throws me.
Gothamist really thinks this is worthy as 'Video of the Day?' Man, you guys are really reaching.
I actually like his work here... grrr.
G is also a Gay letter. Love Anderson.
Excellent video quality (and coverage) can be found here:
