Blogger's Commentary: The Special Edition of AC360 at 10 PM was on a roll the first two nights but lost us tonight. Giuliani's fear mongering about Gitmo was a total turn off.  
And please CNN don't dummy down a smart program by pimping your culinary reporter on a panel discussing politics and world issues.

BLOGGER'S COMMENTARY:   We've really enjoyed the Special Edition of AC360 at 10pm this week.  Ari Fleischer as the choice for the "5th chair" tonight had this blogger smacking their head against the desk going why, that is, until Ari  was schooled by Jeff Toobin, Christiane Amanpour and Col. Morris Davis. Here's hoping we see more of the Special Edition of AC360, perhaps with a new name and a little tweaking.

From the ATA Archives: Anderson Cooper in Istanbul, Turkey November 27, 2006

$

Anderson Cooper was in Istanbul Turkey on November 27th,  ahead of Pope Benedict XVI's visit.  On Monday, November 27th, Anderson anchored AC360 live from Istanbul, with John Roberts holding down the NYC anchor desk and Larry King threw to Anderson at the end of Larry King Live ~




Will the Pope Benedict XVI's first trip to Turkey go smoothly? And it -- it comes just two-and-a-half months after he made those controversial remarks about Islam. Anger over those remarks still runs very deep here. Yesterday, in downtown Istanbul, some 20,000 protesters rallied against the pontiff's visit. 

The slogans they chanted, "Go home, Pope," and "No to the pope," left no room for misunderstanding. Many people, Muslim and Christian, are going to be watching this week to see whether Benedict can mend the damage he did with less than three dozen words. ....



Well, the pope, who arrives in Turkey tomorrow, succeeded one of the most popular pontiffs in modern times, a church leader committed to building bridges with other faiths. Pope John Paul was the first pope to visit a mosque. He met dozens of times with Muslims. 
Benedict XVI, on the other hand, has clearly gotten off to a rocky start with Muslims


A background report from CNN's faiths and values correspondent,  Delia Gallagher ~



And Anderson's follow up discussion with Gallagher and Reza Aslan ~



A majority of people here in Turkey don't have a favorable opinion of the U.S. government right now. Because of its location at the crossroads between the West and the East, Turkey has had a lot of practice balancing competing cultural interests. It's been a secular democratic state since the 1920s, and wants to join the European Union. 

But there are some Muslim extremists here who have a very different idea of where the country should be headed. 






Many hear say the rise of Muslim extremism is due in part to the war in Iraq. And, of course, there are centuries of tension between Christians and Muslims. Coming up, we are going to take a look at the complex relationship between the two religions. 


A poll by the Pew Global Attitudes Project: An overwhelming majority of Turks have a negative opinion of Christians and a more positive view of Muslims, not surprising, since nearly 99 percent of the population here are Muslims. 

And now Pope Benedict XVI's visit is calling attention to the complicated relationship between Islam and Christianity, a relationship that has become more strained by events in recent history. 

CNN's Randi Kaye takes a look ~


Anderson's follow up with Delia Gallagher and Reza Aslan ~




John, thanks. Here in Istanbul the crossroads between east and west. We're going to take a look at how a city which lies literally on two continents struggles to bridge two very different cultures when this special edition of 360 "When Faiths Collide: The Pope in Turkey", continues.



The pope in Turkey. We're here in Istanbul, one of the stops of Pope Benedict XVI's controversial visit to this overwhelmingly Muslim nation. 

Istanbul is Turkey's most populated city. It's a place rich in history, the country's culture and economic center. But as we're finding out Istanbul lies like the rest of Turkey, continues to struggle to find a balance between two worlds.




That ended Anderson's anchoring/reporting for the 10pm ET hour, but he was back for the 11pm ET hour and we will have that for you next week.  We leave you with a few more photos of Anderson out and about recording stories in Istanbul ~






EXTRAS:  

Friday night we posted a couple of photos of Anderson at an event that the "Billy Farrell Agency" had tweeted out.  JustJared.com purchased more photos of the event from the agency and posted them, along with a description, to their website.  Below are three more photos of Anderson, two with Benjamin...

Anderson Cooper 360 Live in Cleveland, 5/8/13

Anderson Cooper was back on the scene of the kidnapping case in Cleveland for Wednesday night's AC360.  Because the chyron (segment titles) person was either on crack or playing roulette with the chyrons we're not even going to bother to list them.  Trust us when we say they just kept cycling them throughout the program and they made little sense when paired with the discussion on the screen.  We found this happening when AC was in Boston too.  Is it really that hard for those back in the 360 control room to pay attention and make some sense with the segment titles?  Must be.  

8:00 PM HOUR:
Reporters on tonight's program were:
Pamela Brown
Martin Savidge
Maria Santana, CNN Espanol
Randi Kaye

Guests interviewed were:
Brian Cummins, Cleveland City Council
Laura Cowan, held captive for years by her polygamous husband
Shawn Hornbeck, former kidnapping victim and his parents

The real Cleveland hero, Angel Cordero's interview with Maria Santana of CNN Espanol:



The one topic where the chyron's synced with the story:
JODI ARIAS SPEAKS OUT ABOUT GUILTY VERDICT: Anderson and Casey Wian reporting
Follow up discussion with Jeffrey Toobin and Jose Baez

Anderson's smack down of physic Sylvia Brown:



10:00 PM HOUR:
Most of the reports and interviews were a regurgitation of the 8:00 PM hour so we'll just highlight the new information:

JODI ARIAS SPEAKS OUT ABOUT GUILTY VERDICT: Ted Rollins reporting
Follow up discussion with Mark Geragos and Marsha Clark
 
Anderson's interview with  William Burgos, friend of the DeJesus family:

Jeff Zucker on How Quickly CNN Can Be No. 1: ‘Come Back to Me in Three Years’

This is not to say the traditional anchor-led programs will be going away. Zucker cited “New Day,” “The Lead,” “The Situation Room” and “AC360″ as some of CNN’s signature programs, although that doesn’t mean they can’t change. “AC360″ tested out a new panel format a few weeks ago, which Zucker champions. 

“We were very pleased with that program, very pleased,” Zucker said, adding that the 8 PM edition of “AC360″ won’t be changing.  (Please click on link for the full article. )

Today we will be focusing on Anderson and his mom, but the ATA Team would like to wish all mothers a Happy Mother's Day!


Anderson and his mom, Gloria Vanderbilt






Gloria keeps a cardboard cutout of Anderson in her apartment. Perhaps this 2003 video explains why?



In 2012 Anderson gave his mom an updated cardboard cutout of himself and presented it to her on his talk show ~


Here's the video of the segment on 'Anderson', which includes a video tribute Anderson made for his mom and the presentation of the new cardboard cutout ~
