Journalism on CNN: DEMOCRAT Cuomo Talks to DEMOCRAT Cuomo

[See NewsBusters for more.] Does it make sense for liberal CNN host Chris Cuomo to interview his liberal Democrat brother, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, on the network’s prime time line-up? According to the network, it’s the perfect place for two members of a prominent Democrat family to bash the Republican president. That's exactly what happened on Monday night. Despite proclaiming, “I don’t want to talk politics” on the Coronavirus, Chris Cuomo highlighted the Twitter battle between Donald Trump and the governor: “You and the President go back and forth a little bit. He cleans it up later on in a press conference. But the substance of the back-and-forth was about what needs to happen and who needs to do it. And in a rejoinder tweet that you sent to the President, you said you'd love to be doing more. 'Give me the control of the Army Corps of Engineers and I'll take it from there.' First of all, do you have any reason to believe that you will get that kind of assistance?”
