CNN’s Anderson Cooper: I ‘Muted’ ‘Annoying’ Trump on Twitter

[See NewsBusters for more.] CNN anchor Anderson Cooper on Monday night admitted that he “muted” the President of the United States on Twitter because Donald Trump represents “annoying people” you don’t want to hear. Talking to Stephen Colbert on the Late Show, the journalist allowed, “I have actually muted the President on Twitter. Don't tell him.” Cooper elaborated, “You know when you get annoying people tweeting you, you don't want to delete because that tells them you deleted them. So, if you just mute them, they think you're still following them and you don't actually see their tweets.”
