Technology run amok. Example of completely useless technology. Edward Tufte calls this stuff chart-junk.

  • LOL What was the point of that? You know it's a slow news day when they pull out pointless technology and say stupid things like "Hillary Clinton does not want to come in third place."  We're all pretty sure she wanted to come in first place, right? LOL

  • Epic video! I could not stop laughing at how ridiculous this chart was when I was watching live. The best one is later on when he sits it down right in front of someone who is talking.

  • Lol @ Anderson Cooper not listening at all from 0:26-0:50.

  • Well, I would never disagree with ET, however, I don't know if this violates all of his rules. It is a pie chart, it does use low back ground colors, he likes the Iphone so his complaint can't be techology based. I guess what the real issue is- is that it wasn't necessary to use a graphic at all to say Obama (what a dissappointment so far - no public option, endless war, no real wall street reform, cow tow to insane tea baggers - but I degress) is in 1st place and clinton & edwards tied for 3rd.

  • lol i wonder if for one day there was no real news to talk about nothing really going on in america that was worthwild and cnn had nothing to talk about. i wonder if anderson cooper would run out in the street and shoot someone then grab a camera and start reporting about the whole thing.

  • shut up you guys its cool

  • Thanks, CNN

  • useless.

  • great way to distract all attention from what the woman was saying.

    ooooh! look! floating blue pie chart! what does it say? i don't know! i don't care! it's pretty!

  • The only way this could be cool is if he held out his hand and had miniature people that he could interview.

  • I love how the same information is written on the bottom of the screen! way to go tech'ees!!!!

  • its not useless, just technology, and its users, in its infancy
