Anderson Cooper is Black?

No, Anderson Cooper is the *new * black. 
Ed Bradley I knew. Wayne Brady shocked me though.

If I am not being whooshed, I suspect the reference is to the fact that Anderson Cooper is gay - and (drum roll) can be mistaken for straight!!
Although I suspect this isn’t a phenotype thing…
I don’t know if anyone looked at my links, but a couple people have said that everyone mentioned so far in this thread looked black to them…I’m pretty sure Lacey Chabert is white.

Uh… aren’t you glad that people didn’t realize? Colorblind and all that?

Didn’t see her. I agree she looks white. Stacy Dash and Rashida don’t look white to me.
Can I just say that, as a non-American this thread makes for truly bizarre reading! Those are some weird hang-ups about race y’all got there

No. It is entirely possible that he is the whitest man in broadcast journalism.
And, that’s saying a lot. 
What I meant was this: He made his bones by going to war, like Bradley, like Rather, like Murrow.
