The Anderson Cooper Replica Dildo Is Only Available at CNN's Adult Store

Concerned you're not going to get your sweetheart the gift she's been craving all year? Then let the cable news networks spread the joy underneath your Christmas tree this year. As TV Week's Michele Greppi reports, the landfills of swag known as online stores are billowing over with ways to worship Anderson Cooper and get in touch with your inner Shep Smith.

The range of stuff for sale is a bit scary: a nine-piece traveling gym set ($49.99), pastel T-shirts with "Anderson Cooper 360" against a heart that's filled with a globe-like grid ($16.99), T-shirts with "actual quotes" heard on "360" ($19.99) and a USB memory pen ($64.99), to name but a few.

The Fox News Shop online reads like a J. Peterman catalog (or a "Seinfeld" Peterman takeoff). It offers a lot of standard options, including twill baseball caps-the hat for business anchor Neal Cavuto's "Your World" guarantees "The owner will two-putt every green (not really)." The black T-shirt ($17.95) for "Fox Report With Shepard Smith" is "as worn in the field by Shep" (The Insider dearly hopes they've at least been rinsed out).

Among the standouts: the "Fox and Friends" BBQ grilling mitt ($9.71) that "handles hot stuff with confidence" and the "No Spit Zone" onesie for toddlers ($9.95) that comes with the promise that "No-Spin-Zoner" Bill O'Reilly "won't be offended." The motifs on ties are inventive. The O'Reilly tie has a repeating design of a big fish eating a small fish "for the pure Darwinist at heart."

And if you're the clearance sale type, there's a stained silk Brit Hume tie, a Keith Olbermann 8-ball that only gives out "All signs point to you're an asshole" answers, and Anderson Cooper leather chaps complete with "The Most Trusted Name At The Cock" emblazened on the left leg.

    Try walking inside the CNN gift shop. You'll find 10-foot Anderson Cooper posters on the walls.

    Since I'm an big Anderson fan, 10-foot posters sound good to me, but, what's up with the AC360 fitness kit umbrellas, and blankets?! Seems pretty silly, IMO.

    just more gay bashing. Aren't' you gay David? You must really dislike yourself to be constantly attacking gay men. Maybe you're just jealous since you run this rinky-dink site and can't find a real career. Get a life you self-loathing hate monger.

    I don't need any more than 10 foot posters on the wall of the CNN store to know which "personality" Klein loves bestest.

    Too bad that AC dildo doesn't really exist, it would be the perfect gift for females like me who'll never have a chance with him. :(
