“Beaten to death with a farm hoe.”

“That’s amazing.  I’m blown away.”

“You think he deserved it?”

“Yeah.  I have no doubt.”

“That’s a horrible way to die, Anderson!”
“He had 12 slaves! I don’t feel bad for him.”

Anderson Cooper is my most non-problematic fave

The speed and the assurance with which Anderson answered that he absolutely believed his ancestor deserved to die was astounding to me. I’ve never seen a mainstream public figure do that before. 

I wish we could have known the name of that slave, I’d like to see Anderson meeting that guy’s descendant and just high fiving him.

Anderson: “Your ancestor was awesome!”

Descendant: “Yeah, I know right!”
