Anderson Cooper Thinks a Wii Is a Why-ee

Anderson Cooper Thinks a Wii Is a Why-ee

June 6, 2008

by POPSUGAR Tech 15

One would assume that with over 24 million Nintendo Wii's sold worldwide, CNN news anchor Anderson Cooper would be up to speed with gaming console trends. Not so much. In this clip you'll see Cooper referring to the Wii as the Why-ee. . . no word of a lie. Thankfully his partner in crime Erica Hill spoiled him for his birthday by giving him a Wii and Wii Fit (wait a minute, he's a Gemini too?!). Let's just hope that his new tech treats will be put to good use. . . and no more calling the Wii a Why-ee!

I never watch the show, but holy cow, how much does his co-host HATE him? Passive aggressiveness at its finest, eh?

Erica Hill did not give Anderson the gift. It came from his bosses. She just handed it to him. Listen to the words.

Why-ee do people dig him anyone? I don't get it. I think he's a tool.

Poor Anderson, I adore him as a newscaster but he really doesn't follow pop culture at all!

My boss used to spell it out. Hey, will you help me find a W-I-I? A Wii? Yeah, W-I-I. Sure, I'll go Wii hunting after work.

I just love, love, LOVE the chemistry between Anderson Cooper and Erica Hill. Very funny... maybe except for their caption the picture segment.

he's good looking and intelligent. so what if he mispronounces one of the most popular consoles out there?

That is hilarious! My dad called it that for about a month after I got mine, and he bought it for me.
