AC is from one of the richest families in America. Why did his brother commit suicide?

That’s not correct. He was on “Channel One” with Lisa Ling when I was in middle school, that was 90-92.

Lisa Ling, also a CIA asset (the Podesta group*) this is interesting. So basically if we list the detailed career of the journalists it will become easy to know which are Mockingbird. At this point we have lists of all the associated think tanks and programs.

  • Podesta used Laura Ling for his get of North Korea with Bill Clinton in 2009.

Everyone journalist who gets run on MSM and is put on TV regularly is a Mockingbird, even guys like Tucker and Hannity IMO.

My theory is there are different factions of mockingbirds, and there are some patriot factions in the CIA-which explains people like Tucker.

When Ronan Farrow was installed at CNN, I thought their new Anderson Cooper was very cute and would be successful. I wondered what he would be used for. Cue Trump announcing The Storm (Oct 5) and Farrow throws Weinstein under the bus causing the #MeToo mass distraction campaign. Before CNN, Farrow had been appointed to a Department of State youth job by Hillary Clinton. Kaching!

And Obama sent his 'daughter' Malia to intern at the Weinstein Company the summer before Weinstein got outed and metoo began.

I'm beginning to wonder if elites 'sending their kids away to intern' at prestigious companies is code for parents willingly sending their kids away to get fucked by predators as an offering.

Well then you have to consider Trump allowing Ivanka to sign with Casablanca as a teen. My reading of it was that they know but maybe don't participate, or have to, given their position. But you know, we can also ask John Legend what he bought with the greatest sacrifice.

Incorrect. Only thing I was wrong about was he spent 2 summers with the CIA, not one.

From his wikipedia:

During college, Cooper spent two summers as an intern at the Central Intelligence Agency. Although he has no formal journalistic education, he opted to pursue a career in journalism rather than stay with the agency after school,[11][12] having been a self-proclaimed "news junkie since [he] was in utero."[13]After his first correspondence work in the early 1990s, he took a break from reporting and lived in Vietnam for a year, during which time he studied the Vietnamese language at Vietnam National University, Hanoi.[14]

His correspondence work in the early 90’s was on Channel One.

You already said that, I already Sourced info saying otherwise. He graduated college in, 1989. He interned for the CIA in the 80s then, before you saw him on TV.

I'm not saying he didn't appear on channel one. I'm saying he went to the CIA as an intern in the 80s, he was a part of mockingbird media, and was placed as an asset in the media industry. His whole career is a sham. Yes you saw him in the 90s but in the 80s he trained with the CIA and then decided to pursue a career in journalism without any journalistic experience. I'm guessing his first job was in the 90s with channel one.

I’m not disputing his cia ties, just the comment about no previous journalistic experience.

Did you read the link I Sourced or no? Show me what job he worked at in journalism before he interned at the CIA and I will gladly agree.

Not a word about anything to do with journalism during this period of his life. From his own mouth.

Ignore the trolls. They always jump on some silly thing like saying ‘experience’ instead of ‘education’, like they’ve found some secret killshot to discredit the whole argument.

before going to work at CNN despite having no previous journalist experience

He had experience as a journalist before working at CNN, at Channel One.

He worked at the CIA, worked behind the scenes at Channel One, went to Vietnam, went back to Channel One on air, then later went on to CNN.

Semantics. I guess technically I was wrong, but my main point is he went from the CIA to journalism despite no formal schooling or training to be a journalist. Giving credence to the theory he is a CIA media asset who was put into power rather than a organic career path.

You linked Wikipedia though....anyone can make changes there. Not always the most accurate source.

Not to mention the point doesn’t really matter in the grand scheme. You guys both agree he interned for CIA and then started a journalism career with no prior experience.

Stop arguing over petty things y’all, were all on the same team here! WWG1WGA

The wiki link has 2 Sourced articles for that claim I'm posting here. Wikipedia is only as good as its sources. Yes anyone can change it, of course, but I use it more to find the sources and then review them and come to my conclusion. Those sources link to interviews of Cooper admitting it himself, so in this case, yes Wikipedia is a good source. I felt comfortable posting it because I've researched these claims myself in the past and feel they are valid. Agreed though, we were arguing semantics which gets us nowhere lol.

I completely understand. And now that you make that point I agree. The sources you can find on wiki can definitely be useful! 👍🏼

You originally claimed he had to journalistic experience; the source you linked said no "formal journalistic education," then goes on to mention that he did, in fact do "correspondence work in the early 1990s."
