Anderson Cooper tweeted his disgust over his friend and colleague Kathy Griffin‘s controversial photo which depicted the comedian hold the severed head of President Donald Trump.
“For the record, I am appalled by the photo shoot Kathy Griffin took part in. It is clearly disgusting and completely inappropriate,” Cooper said on Twitter.

CNN is also evaluating its relationship with Griffin’s role in its annual New Year’s Eve coverage she co-hosts with Cooper:
“We found what she did disgusting and offensive,” CNN said in a statement Tuesday. “We are pleased to see she has apologized and asked that the photos be taken down. We are evaluating our New Year’s Eve coverage and have made no decisions at this point.”
Griffin earlier Tuesday apologized for the photo, noting that she had crossed a line.
