Title: Anderson Cooper and the Wiener dogs
Post by: Marcia from MI on July 31, 2007, 09:04:41 PM
As you all know I'm a big fan of AC360 on CNN and watch it every night.  At the end of the first hour they always present what they call The Shot, a piece of video or photo.  Well, tonight the shot was of the Wiener Dog Nationals in Kansas City and it was too cute.  And the winner was a dachsie named Corkie.

Karen use IE if you can and it should work on a Mac.  CNN redid their video section a few weeks ago and after getting all the bugs out thanks to viewers it should work.

Now that's cute - love the little dachsie guy with suspenders, green shirt and jeans!  It's supposed to be 1 minute, 30 seconds, but it cuts away to the Chinese convicts dancing to "Thriller" before that -  :scratch:

Yeah ever since they update the cnn.com website things have been a little weird on it.   I've emailed them several times to get things fixed, but they can't seem to get it right.

It switched over to the dancers, first try.  Second try, a commercial.  Third try, another commercial.  Oh well.  Our local station likes to show weiner dog races, so we may be able to catch it there.
