Yes, Katie Couric is set bring some celeb sparkle to the dull world of CBS. And joining her in this famous newscaster flight to CBS is CNN’s dreamboat reporter Anderson Cooper.
While it’s unconfirmed by reps as of now, Michael Starr has the exclusive on Coopster’s new gig as “occasional reporter” to 60 Minutes.
Cooper will stay at CNN as the host of “Anderson Cooper 360″ and will contribute occasional reports to “60 Minutes” - which will also air on Cooper’s show.
It will be the second time the networks have shared on-air talent. Cooper’s CNN stablemate, Christiane Amanpour, contributed to “60 Minutes” for several years.
We don’t what kind of money Les Moonves is throwing around, but he sure is pulling some price strings of late. If they ever get Couric and Cooper side by side at the anchor desk we might actually have to watch CBS.
