Sandy Puts a Crimp in NYC-Based Shows
October 30, 2012
On Oct 29, three people showed up to watch a taping of Telepictures’ Anderson Live – about 207 fewer than sit in Anderson Cooper’s studio audience most days. Two of those guests lived nearby and tweeted the New York-based show to ask if they needed people in the audience. They did. Despite the then-looming Hurricane Sandy, Cooper and guest co-host Ashleigh Banfield went on with the show, including giving viewers advice to stay safe. In New York, only Anderson Live, CBS Television Distribution’s Inside Edition and Disney-ABC’s Live with Kelly and Michael were in production as planned.
