Anderson Cooper, please leave the funny stuff to Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert.
I like the concept of "ridiculist". I think the criteria for this bit is that it is entertaining and, obviously, ridiculous. This particular one seemed to lack both of those. I was waiting the the "punchline" of what was so ridiculous, but was very disappointed. I don't like Mustaine (personally), but most of the bit was Anderson making ad hominem remarks about him, "i.e. linking the story with his musical career, and alluding to its quality, or lack-there-of." Personal tip: wait till Mustaine makes another comment about how the President caused the recent mass-shooting, and add that to your "ridiculist".
