Quote Unquote: Corporate Decency
CNN commentator and former federal prosecutor Sunny Hostin, on Anderson Cooper 360 last night, in response to Reddit exercising its First Amendment rights and not shutting down some user-generated "potentially illegal" (read as: "legal") corners of its website — such as r/jailbait and r/asianjailbait — that many may deem as being in poor taste…
"Even if they aren't [technically in violation of any actual laws], don't we want them to be good corporate citizens? What happened to decency? What happened to corporations doing the right thing?"
I should point out that she was not saying that in jest.
Also, time spent on Anderson Cooper's show last night wringing hands over "the possibility that somebody somewhere might be looking at sexually suggestive photos of your teenage child" on the Internet: 8 minutes.
Time spent on Anderson Cooper's show all told covering the Occupy Wall Street demonstrations – protesting "negative corporate influence over U.S. politics" — that have been happening 5 miles from the CNN studios in New York City for the past two weeks: 0 minutes.

Anderson Cooper Puts Stephen Colbert on The RidicuList
From The CC Insider…
As you may have seen, a couple weeks ago, Stephen Colbert responded to one of Anderson Cooper's RidicuList segments by putting the CNN host on The Colbert Report's Absurd-U-Chart. And on last night's Anderson Cooper 360, the feud continued with Stephen being named to the latest RidicuList. Hilarity ensued, and now this whole affair is going at the top of my Delight-U-Rankings.
Watch the offending Colbert Report segment as well as Anderson Cooper's most recent appearance on the show.
The Colbert Report airs Monday through Thursday at 11:30/10:30c.

Bill O'Reilly Is This Generation's St. Thomas Aquinas
Look! There are some things that we will just never know for sure, and we're gonna have to make our peace with that. Like, what is the root cause of all the strife in the Middle East? And why do Egyptians like beating up on Anderson Cooper so much? And just who was it that put that there moon way up there so high in the sky?
The Colbert Report airs Monday through Thursday at 11:30/10:30c.

The Daily Show and Colbert on the Assault of Anderson Cooper in Egypt
You've no doubt heard by now that the situation in Egypt has gone from relatively peaceful to violent and even deadly this week. As both The Daily Show and Colbert Report discussed last night, even CNN's Anderson Cooper was punched ten times by supporters of Autocratic President Hosni Mubarek. As I understand it, that registers right between Christiane Amanpour's car getting rocked back and forth and Brian Williams getting kneed in the sweets on the State Department's Political Unrest Scale.
More Egypt coverage can be found after the jump.
The Daily Show and Colbert Report air Monday through Thursday starting at 11/10c.
