Kathy Griffin revealed on Monday that she attempted to get herself back on the airwaves this New Year's Eve with a new co-host.

The comedian said on Twitter that she had pitched 'New Yearâ€™s Eve live with Kathy Griffin and Stormy Daniels' but 'all of the Hollywood check signers were too scared' to greenlight the telecast.

Griffin, 58, and Daniels, 39, became friends after meeting for the first time earlier this year.

Cooper's show, Anderson Cooper 360, airs 5 days a week, all year. That means he appears, counting vacations, between 200 and 250 times a year, which means that Cooper is making around $40,000 to $50,000 a night.

Lot of effing money to bring in no viewers.
