In Wake of Revelations, CNN "Reviewing" Chris Cuomo's Role in Digging Up Dirt on Andrew Cuomo's Accusers and Writing Press Releases For Him, and Then Lying to Viewers About His Role In Andrew's DefenseI believe they misspelled "whitewash." CNN says it will conduct a "thorough review" of documents showing the role prime-time anchor Chris Cuomo played in advising his brother Andrew Cuomo, the former governor of New York, as the Democrat defended himself from accusations of sexual misconduct. Conversations about clarity? Giving him both barrels, huh? The documents released by the AG show Fredo using his journalistic contacts to collect "intel" for his ass-grabbing brother. Chris Cuomo also appeared to use his journalistic connections to gather information for the governor's team. He fielded requests from DeRosa for "intel" on a then-unpublished investigative story by New Yorker writer Ronan Farrow and information about a rumor that more accusers were about to come forward on March 7. Fredo was also using his "journalistic" resources to trash the reputation of an accuser referred to as "the wedding girl," sliming her as a fabulist and liar. A transcript of an interview with the younger Cuomo showed that at one point the TV host texted Melissa DeRosa, his brother's top aide, to say "I have a lead on the wedding girl". It was a reference to Anna Ruch, a woman who accused Andrew Cuomo of attempting to kiss her at a wedding. Fredo pleaded to Andrew to let him help -- and then wrote a statement for the Luv Guv to read, which he read publicly, nearly verbatim. On another occasion Cuomo reached out to DeRosa to ask if he could help prepare his brother to deliver a public statement addressing the allegations.
That's a lie; he called a lot of media people, we now know, to collect "intel" about upcoming stories. And that's just what we know about.
Fredo will claim he meant that he never tried to bully reporters out of reporting on his brother, but that's not what he said. He was denying using any of his journalistic power (to the extent he had it) on behalf of his brother, in any way. In testimony to the AG, Fredo sought to downplay his role in digging up dirt and strategizing for Andrew -- and claimed convenient losses of memory, claiming his bout with covid must have deleted parts of his brain. At times, Chris Cuomo appeared to downplay his involvement in his brother's response to the scandal, testifying that he did not pay close attention to some of the discussions he was copied on or that he was not a participant in others. Fredo made these specific representations to his viewers when he was last caught playing PR head to Andrew: "I never misled anyone about the information I was delivering or not delivering on this program. I never attacked nor encouraged anyone to attack any woman who came forward. I never made calls to the press about my brother's situation." We know the second and third statement are false. He definitely reached out to DeRosa about "the wedding girl" possibly having "made it up," and he was making calls to Ronan Farrow's staffers trying to get information about what Farrow knew. Does CNN care about lying? Um no they don't. They don't even care about being caught lying, repeatedly, so what are we all pretending for? Perhaps Don Lemon is already previewing the conclusions of CNN's "review:" He says this only proves that Fredo Cuomo is one of the kindest men in the world. Well he didn't mention the revelations -- but he said that, out of the blue, in the wake of the revelations. So connect the dots. One more bit: You know Katy Tur, the MSNBC dum-dum who voluntarily allowed Keith Olbermann to mount her not once but many times? The Democrat operative mentioned above, Liz Smith, said in texts how delighted she was that Katy Tur was repeating Liz Smith's Cuomo Spin almost verbatim. Josefa Velasquez @J___Velasquez From a Democrat operative's texts to NBC's airwaves with absolutely no editing or fact-checking or calibrating. Just transmitted through the dumb mouth of a former Keith Olbermann slam-piece. And note-- the Democrat operative considered defending Andrew Cuomo so toxic that she wanted her role defending him to be kept secret. She thought it would hurt her "credibility." Her credibility as an out-and-proud, openly-partisan political spin merchant. MSNBC and CNN personnel, on the other hand, had no such qualms. "Journalists" Doing the dirty, reputation-shredding jobs that even Democrat operatives don't want to be caught doing. | Recent Comments
