CNN journalist, Anderson Cooper has responded to Trump’s rebuke of CNN and its reporters. The prominent journalist spoke on Tuesday Night Live, and event known for bringing up Trump jokes.
In the latest clapback, Anderson Cooper expressed surprise that President-elect Donald Trump had the time to tweet despite the heavy burden of preparing for the presidency.
“When I first heard that he was tweeting about something that was on this broadcast … I kept thinking, ‘Doesn’t he have, like, a briefing book on ISIS to be reading last night?’ ”
Cooper, however, went on to express joking gratitude to Trump for watching the show.
There’s a huge amount of information … for him to be absorbing now,” said Cooper,
“I appreciate he is watching the show. … But what is he doing?”
Earlier in the week, American President-elect, Donald Trump attacked CNN in what he deems as unfair media coverage.
“@CNN is so embarrassed by their total (100%) support of Hillary Clinton, and yet her loss in a landslide, that they don’t know what to do.”
“@sdcritic: @HighonHillcrest @jeffzeleny @CNN There is NO QUESTION THAT #voterfraud did take place, and in favor of #CorruptHillary !”
“@JoeBowman12: @jeffzeleny just another generic CNN part time wannabe journalist !” @CNN still doesn’t get it. They will never learn!”
“@HighonHillcrest: @jeffzeleny what PROOF do u have DonaldTrump did not suffer from millions of FRAUD votes? Journalist? Do your job! @CNN”
