…Oh, And By The Way, CNN Denies It

In response to this anonymous tip, a CNN spokesperson says: “Nothing could be further from the truth!

Angelina Jolie‘s representative approached Anderson Cooper‘s senior executive producer David Doss because Angelina is an admirer of Anderson’s work, especially his commitment to covering Africa and the plight of refugees.

CNN had no part in any negotiation with People magazine. CNN never pays for interviews, and we did not pay directly or indirectly for the interview with Angelina Jolie.

There were no limitations and we were not barred from asking any questions.”
