The few I can actually picture....(out of 15)
Anderson Cooper

Anderson Cooper should be playing Jeopardy with his two favorite Ridiculist subjects: Gerard Depardieu and William Tapley, a.k.a. the Third Eagle of the Apocalypse, or the Co-Prophet of the End Times.

...considering Lewis Black's news-related commentaries on The Daily Show, I'd put him in the category as well. Previous news-related participants have included Robin Quivers, Harry Shearer (his Public radio series Le Show is mostly news-driven), Wolf Blitzer, Harry Smith, Soledad O'Brien, Keith Olbermann and the late Tim Russert...

I could imagine Chris Berman and Jim Cantore cleaning house.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar & Dr. Oz aren't news people. That said, it would be fun to see Chris Matthews try to answer a sports question (Chuck Todd seems to Tweet sports all the time so it wouldn't be much of a challenge for him though) ;D

Cheers

CNN management has to really hope that Anderson Cooper can outperform
Wolf Blitzer from the last round. That was an all-time low water mark for
celebrities on Jeopardy.

Seeing the list, the first answer will probably be.....you feel drops of water falling on you
HOW DO YOU KNOW IT'S RAINING?
