I am also shocked so many of the top anchors from the US are going. Anderson Cooper was not a top anchor when he covered Ed's wedding. He is CNN's biggest money maker now
In addition, ABC is sending its top anchors including David Muir himself, their actual top guy. CBS is as well.
PBS is also sending over a large team. I have posted info on other boards about the broadcasts. I can do a master post for here? Would that be allowed/ok?
