He’s still no Piers Morgan, but he’s getting there.
Take, for instance, Cooper’s recent TwitPic (yup, he’s really getting into the behind-the-scenes pics) of his new Columbus Circle studio for his upcoming daily talk show, Anderson. Cooper tweeted a photo of himself on the set, showing off a huge wall of glass overlooking Central Park.
