Anderson Cooper And CNN Crew Attacked By Pro-Mubarak Mob In Egypt

by Mark Joyella | 9:12 am, February 2nd, 2011

CNN’s Steve Brusk reports the network’s anchor Anderson Cooper has been attacked while reporting for the network in Egypt. Brusk went to Twitter to describe the attack, saying “Anderson said he was punched 10 times in the head as pro-Mubarak mob surrounded him and his crew trying to cover demonstration.”

Just think what the Muslim Brotherhood would've done if they'd have gotten within a stone's throw of that fag.

Anderson Cooper Attacked by Mob in Egypt

Anderson Cooper was attacked in Egypt Wednesday.

CNN producer Steve Brusk Tweeted, "Anderson said he was punched 10 times in the head as pro-Mubarak mob surrounded him and his crew trying to cover demonstration."

Cooper then escaped to the roof of a nearby building, where he said on air that he and his crew were trying to get to a neutral zone between protestors and pro-Mubarak supporters when they "were set upon by pro-Mubarak supporters punching us in the head. The crowd kept growing, kept throwing punches, kicks...suddenly a young man would look at you and punch you in the face."
Pro-Mubarak? Hmmm have them tell it those type do not exist in Egypt. Interesting these pro-Mubarak are called a MOB. I so dislike MSM.

I'm thinking they had the shit knocked out of them because they (the protestors) have been watching the one-sided coverage from cnn.

People like that plus the DUmmies have what I think of as the "Noble Brown Man Syndrome."  As in, brown people can do no wrong.  You see it in those 3 American moonbats who went hiking in Iraq and ended up in an Iranian prison.  "Two guys and a girl go hiking in Iraq?  What could possibly go wrong?"

I can also point the finger at myself as a young bride.  "Marry an Arab?  What could possibly go wrong?"

You were told correctly.  A corollary to that of which I was also made aware, is that "diplomacy" lies in the same book, somewhere between "dissidence" and "dildo".  :-)

+1.  K&R.  (For the longest time I thought that might be a DUmbass reference to "Keith & Rachel", as in a comment worthy of Ãœbertard and The Muncher.  In this case, I'm hoping speshul Keef and Da Munch get a special assignment to join Anderson over there in Cairo, and - of course - get the crap pounded out of them as well.)

What a great world wide TV broadcast moment this could make. Tell the Muslims that Cooper is queer and watch them stone him to death live and on air.

That might shock a few of the DUmmies into reality.

This is reported to be Mubarak's security force driving through a crowd of protesters.

Now we may have a clue as to why they shut down the internet.
