Appearing on CNN Thursday night, liberal journalist Anderson Cooper surprised audiences by defending the “greater variety” of news outlets available to Americans in 2017.

While most can agree that a large majority of the mainstream media is Left-leaning, Cooper said he loves that there is a wider range of viewpoints for Americans today: “I love that there is ‘The Daily Caller’ and ‘The Daily Beast’ and Fox News. I think it’s good. I like the fact that we have more information at our finger tips than ever before.”
