Drudge: Anderson Cooper may be 'laughing stock' after Dem debate
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Matt Drudge, editor of the influential Drudge Report, said Tuesday that CNN's Anderson Cooper, who will moderate that night's Democratic presidential debate, is in danger of becoming a "laughing stock."
Drudge warned that as moderator, Cooper will have to walk a fine line.
"Anderson Cooper has very challenging job tonight," Drudge wrote on Twitter. "Too Soft: Will be laughing stock. Too Hard: Punished by liberal media circles." Cooper will moderate the debate along with his colleagues Dana Bash and Don Lemon.
