Woman Whose Mother Died in a NY Nursing Home Accuses NBC News of Blocking Her From Saying ‘Cuomo Failed Us’

A woman whose mother passed away in a New York nursing home has accused NBC News and other media outlets of pressuring her into not saying “Cuomo failed us.”

Dawn Best, whose mother died in April of this past year, told ‘Fox & Friends’ that NBC specifically asked her to say “New York failed us” rather than naming New York Governor Andrew Cuomo.

“‘Can you say that a different way without Governor Cuomo’s name, and just say New York failed you?'” Best claimed were the instructions from an NBC reporter.

“So I had no choice,” she continued. “So I had to say, ‘New York failed me.'”

Best said that NBC wasn’t the only outlet to sway her on avoiding mentioning Cuomo by name.

“Well, I kinda got used to it because the media was never letting me say ‘Governor Cuomo’ all along, and it was being cut out of every interview that I was in,” she claimed.

Best stated that she began to add “Governor Cuomo” to the beginning of her sentences so the media outlets would be forced to keep his name in their clips.

Of course they did. And they’ll make her look like a Trump loving idiot.

It’s what they do. It’s where we are in the downfall of America.

“Believe me plenty of democrats parents died in N.Y. nursing homes.”

Doesn’t matter. A party member wouldn’t raise a stink. Therefore, if you complain, if you try to make Herr Cuomo look bad, you are not a party member in good standing. I guess that makes you a Trump loving idiot, right?

According to St. Fauci, NY “did it right” in its handling of COVID. At the moment he proclaimed that, Fauci removed any doubt he was a Deep State stooge.

Reminds me of an old joke from the USSR:

A man was in Red Square shouting, “Brezhnev is an idiot!”

He was arrested and imprisoned for revealing a state secret.

What these sycophant liberals don’t understand is that if government can do it to one group of people sure as hell they can do it to another group which you may be part of. So much for truth to power.

And of course Dahlgren's people at NBC had the receipts.

"A Mediaite review of the full video of the interview, provided by an NBC source, shows that it was Best – not the NBC reporter, Kristen Dahlgren – who asked to re-do her answer"
