Larry Hearts Anderson, Even If He Does Get More Panel Time

Larry Hearts Anderson, Even If He Does Get More Panel Time
Another debate post! Whee! Today, TVNewser brings us yet another technical snafu from CNN's Sunday night Dem debate, this time featuring an ersatz off-camera moment where
Larry King
rubs his eyes (aw) and complains that
Anderson Cooper
is getting more face time than he is. Pout. TVNewser
, "Is there tension between King and Cooper?" — and ETP has the answer, which is this: Yes! But only the awkward kind that results when your avuncular and slightly doddering on-air anchormate suddenly breaks into "Happy Birthday" during what may well be the pinnacle of your career as a political journalist! Which is what Larry King did on Sunday night, in such a sweet, well-intentioned way that you just know he genuinely has a soft spot for the skinny little dimpled rookie sitting uncomfortably beside him, clearly hoping for the moment to end, end, please God make it end. Either that or Larry King is damned diabolical. Either way, we love him! And also, happy birthday, Anderson!
