This was the funniest thing ever. It was accompanied by video. Anderson was reading from a large book whilst sitting on the steps to the anchor desk and some floor crew was sitting as his feet listening:
------------
'Twas "The Nth" before Christmas, we finished our jobs. Not a creature was stirring, not even Lou Dobbs.
The Nielsens were tracked by the suits with great care. In hopes the good ratings soon would be there.
The anchors were nestled all snug in their beds while personal assistants brought rugs for their heads.
When outside the set there arose such a clatter, I clapped on my lights and said, "oh, what's the matter?"
Away to the window the camera pans, revealing a gaggle of CNN fans. "Hey Cooper, where's Gupta, where's Hemmer, that vixen, where's Woodruff, where's Carlson, where's Carville or Blitzer?"
I spoke not a word but went back to my work, and read all the copy then turned with a jerk.
And lifting a finger made clear to the mob, that stalkers are not a fun part of this job.
I sprang to my feet, to my crew gave a whistle. And the fans, they took off like a patriot missile.
But they heard me exclaim, "at least, next time, name me." Happy Christmas to all and to "The Nth Degree."
I'm Anderson Cooper. "PAULA ZAHN NOW" is next.
---He's the best.

But was very funny.
