The "Coop"

April 11, 2007 -- CNN must love to reward underachievers. Not only did the sagging news network throw tens of millions of bucks into an ad campaign that failed to boost Anderson Cooper's ratings, now an insider says it's set to pay the man Fox News dubbed the "Paris Hilton of anchors" a deal worth $50 million over five years. Cooper "just got an incremental amount added on to his original contract to keep him happy for the next two years and then will make a much larger amount for the following three years - all of which will be worth $50 million," a Cooper spy told us. A rep for CNN declined to comment.

Faux needs to get over it. If they're so confident about their status at number one, why do they have to take hits at Anderson Cooper every chance they get? Good for Anderson if he's getting that kind of money. He deserves it far more than anyone on Faux.
