"That's Bullshit" On 360

Anderson Cooper hosted 360 from St. Bernard's Parish in Louisiana last night. (I wish he'd anchor from the Gulf Coast full-time -- someone needs to.) During the "Keeping Them Honest" segment, Henry "Junior" Rodriguez, president of St. Bernard Parish, uttered an expletive:

 COOPER: Appreciate you being with us. You've heard FEMA's statement that it is basically you guys, it is local officials, it is state red tape that's holding up these trailers.

RODRIGUEZ: FEMA's a damn lie. They can't tell the truth.

COOPER: Absolutely that there's --

RODRIGUEZ: We have no restrictions in St. Bernard Parish. I can't speak about any other parish. We have no restrictions, we have everything.

COOPER: They say there are problems with the local energy company, that the sites, that the state has to approve the sites.

RODRIGUEZ: That's bullshit.

COOPER: We're on the air, sir.

Here's the transcript...

> Update: 9:53am: "Maybe you should give up cable watching and try NBC once in awhile," a Louisiana e-mailer says. "They have a permanent bureau here and Martin Savidge is on almost every night with reports. We certainly don't need an alarmist, rabbble rouser type reporter like Anderson Cooper down here. He obviously didn't do his homework before his interview with Junior Rodriguez last night; he would have realized that Junior is prone to cussing and he doesn't care if he's on TV or not."
