Anderson Cooper Attacked By Pro-Mubarak Mob In Egypt
CNN anchor Anderson Cooper was attacked by a mob of President Hosni Mubarak’s supporters in Cairo, Egypt earlier today, Wednesday (February 2). According to CNN producer Steve Brusk, Anderson was “punched 10 times in the head as pro-Mubarak mob surrounded him and his crew trying to cover demonstration.”
The 43 year-old journalist still had the time to cover all the events for CNN’s live blog, describing the attack and their escape to a roof of a nearby building. Anderson claims the mob pushed, shoved and punched the CNN crew in the head, but, fortunately, no one was seriously hurt.
