Charges? What charges?
When it came to praise for actions the governor of the nation’s fourth most populous state took in the early days of the COVID-19 crisis, some actions of which now have him in deep trouble, the broadcast and cable networks couldn’t get enough of New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo. When it came to sexual harassment charges made against him last week, the same networks were silent.
That’s how biased those networks have become.
According to transcripts, ABC, CBS nor NBC, nor CNN and MSNBC, made mention of the charges by the state’s former deputy secretary for economic development and special adviser to the governor, Lindsey Boylan, who said Cuomo went “out of his way to touch me on my lower back, arms and legs,” forcibly kiss her on the lips during a one-on-one briefing and suggest they “play strip poker” during a plane ride.
The aide said she resigned in September 2018 due to the harassment. The governor’s office denied the charges, calling them “simply false.”
