CNN's Anderson Cooper reveals who was eager to grab Chris Cuomo’s time slot
Fox News
CNN’s Anderson Cooper addressed this month’s firing of colleague Chris Cuomo during a late-night conversation with Stephen Colbert last week – and also revealed who was eager to claim Cuomo’s coveted 9 p.m. time slot.
Soon after, Cooper said, he received a call from Andy Cohen, the talk show host who also co-anchors CNN’s annual New Year’s Eve broadcasts with Cooper.
"Do you think I could get that show?" Cooper recalled Cohen asking him about the post-Cuomo CNN vacancy.
"I was like, ‘Andy, you’ve got enough real estate in television,’" Cooper responded, he told Colbert. Cohen’s other media ventures include hosting "Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen," on the Bravo network and serving as executive producer of the "Real Housewives" shows.
