Anderson Cooper - former intern for CIA |

Anderson Cooper's CIA Secret
Anderson Cooper has long traded on his biography, carving a niche for
himself as the most human of news anchors. But there's one aspect of
his past that the silver-haired CNN star has never made public: the
months he spent training for a career with the Central Intelligence
Agency.
Following his sophomore and junior years at Yale—a well-known
recruiting ground for the CIA—Cooper spent his summers interning at
the agency's monolithic headquarters in Langley, Virginia, in a
program for students interested in intelligence work. His involvement
with the agency ended there, and he chose not to pursue a job with the
agency after graduation, according to a CNN spokeswoman, who confirmed
details of Cooper's CIA involvement to Radar.
"Whatever summer jobs or internships our anchors had in college
couldn't be less consequential," she added. He has kept the experience
a secret, sources say, out of concern that, if widely known, it might
compromise his ability to travel in foreign countries and even
possibly put him at greater risk from terrorists.
"He doesn't want to be any more of a target than he already is," says
one Anderson confidante. On the other hand, as Bob Woodruff and others
have learned, American journalists are already prime targets in the
world's conflict zones, and are typically accused of having CIA ties
even where none exist. And by not disclosing his training before now,
Cooper has arguably made it into a potential issue. "It creates the
appearance of something smelly there," says a former CNN official who
knows Cooper. (Particularly in light of the period Anderson spent
studying Vietnamese at the University of Hanoi after college. Soon
after, Cooper apparently gave up his Bond fantasy to pursue a career
in journalism—except for a brief period when he starred as host of
ABC's reality show, The Mole.)
According to the spokeswoman, Cooper told his bosses at CNN about his
time with the agency. But even if he hadn't, says Walter Isaacson, who
headed the network from 2001 to 2003 and is now president of the Aspen
Institute, it's not the sort of thing that would automatically require
disclosure, since the stint was brief and far in the past. "I think
what he did was probably fine and cool, and I've got no problems with
it," he added.

Cool. Anyone know Speeders and Drunk's address - in case anyone wants

Geez, and I wanted your company name in order to compete with

business, you're a mob hitman!

It's odd to publish that article about Cooper Anderson because it's
not newsworthy. Who cares what his summer job once was? But it does
increase the chance he will get killed, a bit.
Seems we need to send a signal of our disapproval of such stuff.

I prefer the "Bad doggy!" approach. Suggesting assassination is too
rightwing for my taste.

JFK tried to kill Castro over and over.
Clinton probably tried to kill Saddam.

I have no interest in taking you.
I have an interest in pointing out that the information released
wasn't newsworthy - it doesn't make any difference to anything to know
his summer job - but it does increase the odds he will get killed, a
bit.
I guess I really should have directed that to the original publisher,
and not you. Once the cat is out of the bag, it's out.
I pardon you.
