CNN's 'New Day' Brings Back Humble-bragging Chris Cuomo to Blast Barr
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 04/18/2019 6:21:46 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

To prepare my blog items, I typically read a show's transcript before watching the video. And so it was, when checking out CNN's New Day this morning, that I didn't know who had so unequivocally supported the highly-contentious, partisan claim by Dem committee chairmen that Attorney General Barr is trying to "shield the President and color Mueller's findings for the public."

I figured it must have been one of CNN's countless political "analysts" or "commentators" who so flatly sided with the Dem chairmen. But no, turns out it was Chris Cuomo, whom CNN brought in to guest-host on his former New Day stomping grounds, in the absence of regular co-host John Berman.

Alisyn Camerota teed up Cuomo by reporting that "Barr's rollout plan is already igniting a firestorm. Several House chairs are calling on the AG to cancel that press conference, accusing Barr of trying to shield the president and color Mueller's findings for the public."

Retorted Cuomo: "And that's because, he is."

Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

New Day brings back Chris Cuomo to guest host and blast Bill Barr. Cuomo also does a humble-brag about his looks.

Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

I’m not going to watch any of the cable news show antics in real time, but it appears that they are together coordinating a full-court, flood-the-zone attempt to do what Professor George Lakoff (rhymes with) called “framing,” attempting to preempt the Barr press conference with as much outrage, histrionics and flakery as possible in order to blunt its effect.

I remember when left-wing nutjobs linked hands in a giant human chain to surround the Pentagon and levitate it, back in about 1972 or so. This nonsense reminds me of that.

The spin continues. Next CNN will be telling us they never predicted Trump would be charged and impeached. They create their own reality. Fake news on steroids.

That was 1967. My dad was in the pentagon at the time. he’d fought in ww2. the very idea that people were not on the side of the military was alien to him. he came home a changed man.

imho those levitators were successful. DC and the surrounding subburbs are now several different countries filled with people from around the world. americans have left or are leaving.

Fredo should bring some cooking recipes to share. Maybe he can get CNN’s ratings higher than the Food Channel.

One thing can be said with certainty about Cuomo - he’s always campaigning for his brother. I wonder if that violates campaign finance laws?
