7 POINTS FOR COOPER AND THE FILIPINO PEOPLE

This is in response to comments and attention the Filipino people are giving to American reporter Anderson Cooper of CNN. My personal outlook about the issue... 

1- Anderson Cooper is way behind in Cable News Ratings. The Philippines and the tragedy are a good stepping stone for him to get the world's attention. The almost 100 million Filipinos in the Philippines aside from those who are living overseas could help boost his ratings.

2- In fairness to Mr. Anderson; he may have been talking about a certain areas that was affected by the typhoon.
3- Mr. Cooper did not know that some of the roads are not passable.
4- Mr. Cooper did not get to read or check on the internet of what president Pnoy have been doing before he even touched down the Philippine airport. He is in the Philippines, not in Japan, not in the USA or Europe. Different scenario, different culture, different tragedy, and he is in a third world country.
5- Why would we let Anderson Cooper divide us and keep our attention on him when he may never lift a finger to help the Filipino people anyways. He is there for his job and not to help. Now the Philippine media are helping him to be popular not only in the Philippines, but all over the world.
6- Let us stop talking about him and concentrate on our people.
7- My personal suggestion- Ban CNN and cooper's program if you're not happy of his reporting.
