Anderson Cooper, a CNN reporter, was struck by debris while covering Hurricane Milton, and fans rallied behind him on social media.
Many fans called for CNN to allow Anderson to drink on their New Year's Eve special as a way to make it up to him.
Andy Cohen, a friend of Anderson and co-host of the New Year's Eve special, agreed with the fans, reposting their messages on social media.
Anderson and Andy's friendship has grown stronger over the years, with their children becoming close friends as well.
