ZAIN VERJEE, CNN ANCHOR:Pluto is 3 billion miles from earth and is the last unexplored planet in our solar system. And Wolf, did you know that it’s actually the only planet that was discovered by a U.S. citizen? Did you know that?
BLITZER: I didn’t know that, but there’s a lot that, Zain, I don’t know. Jack Cafferty probably knew that. Let’s ask Jack.
Jack, did you know that?
JACK CAFFERTY, CNN ANCHOR: No, I didn’t actually.
VERJEE: Apparently a guy called Clyde Tombaugh. He was born in Illinois. He was an astronomer. And he discovered Pluto back in 1930, and now his wife, who is something like 93, and her two children, are going to go and watch the launch tomorrow.
CAFFERTY: How has that discovery changed their life?
VERJEE: It’s interesting. It’s interesting to learn it about other planets, and discover what’s out there.
CAFFERTY: Besides that it is interesting. I mean, has it really changed our life? It’s, how many, 3 billion miles away? I mean who cares? You know, spend millions of dollars…
VERJEE: It’s interesting, Jack.
CAFFERTY: What?
BLITZER: All right. Jack, let’s move on. We got to move on.
CAFFERTY: Hey, Zain, have you ever been in jail?
VERJEE: No, have you?
CAFFERTY: I’m not going to answer that…

I hate Jack Cafferty. He is a moron and a glorified intern. ZAIN and WOLF were having a nice converstation on Pluto, the possibilites of what lies out that far from the Sun, and Jack makes a smart ass, no, asshole comment about what good is it.
SHUT UP JACK CAFFERTY!

You should go to Pluto and report back to us.

Jack,
I care. There are possibilities out at Pluto that are NOT available close to the sun. What happens when you are THAT cold for SOOO LONG? How can something as big as Pluto even stay as a solid object with no heat? It has changed the lives of all the people involved with the probe.
I think you owe an apology to Zain. She’s a nice woman and does not deserve to be treated like that.

Give him HELL Kev.
He – Jack Cafferty – is the most shameless anchor I have ever come across who is biased to the core. He should be considered for Guiness Book of Records for having such unfathomable degrees of bias. He just wants to get barack obama elected single handedly. He is misusing his powers as an anchor to put forth his personal agendas. It is a SHAME.
Whether it is Hillary or Macain or Bill, or Palin or even Joe Biden until he was selected for VP… he would just sling mud with utmost deliberate intentions on all of them an any of them who give their opinion against Barack Obama.
I was an intern at WNBC in the late 80’s when Cafferty was on the ‘Live at Five’ show. He was the most rude person you ever met, completely full of himself and just not a nice person. What you see on the air is who he is.
Some people act like assholes sometimes, others just are. He is one.
oh my god, we should get him fired. He is no anchor. I swear, I want to be face to face with him. We should start a petition….ok…maybe not the most sophisticated idea..i hate him. did you see his last post about mccain?

I mean, to note his place in his navy class….what an asshole!
Cafferty is a TOTAL ASSHOLE of an anchor. But you know who’s worse? CNN, for employing him. The whole media thing is such a cesspool, so glad Cronkite et al don’t have to see this feces masquerading as the business they built…..
Jack Cafferty is a moron. Cant stand that guy.
Always considered CNN to be journalistic jewel of integrity ~ then I watched Jack Cafferty~ the Anti-Christ of journalism~ egocentric ..racist… biased…, filitered far left agenda …, & simply a bore~ He is an insult to intellectual integrity & journalistic honor ~
Cafferty is a complete asshole who doesn’t even have the right to open his mouth. He was an admittedly abusive alcoholic who also ran over a bicyclist in New Yoirk then fled the scene, running two red lights in the process before the cops stopped him. This is the man who so ardently stands behind Obama! NOTE TO JACK: A furrowed brow doesn’t NECESSARILY make you a hard core newsman. Cronkite had one, so did Brinkly et al…But you don’t amount to even a oimple on their asses. Go back to the bottle my boy, with your own kind.
What I find offensive is that Wolf Blitzer kisses Jack Cafferty’s ass every time they talk to one another. Sometimes Cafferty makes an offensive remark towards Blitzer’s personality and then Wolf Blitzer responds back nicely indulging Cafferty’s Books on how good they are and that people should buy them on Amazon. What a Jackass this Cafferty is !
