Love Brooke Anderson! One of the most appealing personalities on the air. Great move!
Used to like her. Now I can’t stand her. Now she sensationalizes everything.
Example: Report from the day after the Golden Globes: “Is Ricky Gervais’s career over? Will Ricky Gervais ever work in this town again?”
Stop treating viewers like their stupid.
They’re. Stop treating viewers like they’re stupid.* Ironic.
obviously ‘ed’ is her agent…this hire is total blahsville….who even knows who Brooke Anderson is.
just another blond to be meat in the seat.
How long will Insider be on the air? Is it even getting a 1 rating?
Hey, GregJ, no, I’m not Brooke’s agent. Wish I was, dude. Just a red blooded male who thinks she’s outstanding and always have. Take off the spike strip on your soul, bro…Life ain’t that hard…
GregJ why so bitter?
Brooke’s a great choice.
To Brooke Anderson- You’re just another stupid teleprompter reader. Do yourself a favor and don’t bother having an opinion on anything. You’ll only demonstrate how intellectually empty your tiny little head is. Even Deadline readers are smarter than you!
Have a nice day, Brooke!
To Todd – your slanderous statement about Brooke Anderson clarifies your poor intellect. Brooke is a perfect choice for this job. She is very intelligent and a great person! I have known her since she was a baby. Probably should keep your simple-minded thoughts to yourself…
i think Brooke is a fabulous choice! she is fantastic at what she does, and i’ve met her once, she’s the sweetest person on earth!
I only know who Brooke is because my husband watches Showbiz Tonight. She’s grown on me. I find her to be very likeable. I hope she has a chance to show herself more on Insider. I also wish I knew where to tune in to The Insider! I don’t know that show either, but I would like to see her in her new venue.
Good riddence to Brooke. Way to go cnn. She is terrible. She is such a drama queen. She exaggerates everything. Not professional at all.
i think Brooke is doin great on the show now! i really like her better than Lara.
