This has surpassed a reaction to a knucklehead officer killing Floyd whom no one has defended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad_ATX 13,654 Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 The video loses credibility the moment is labeled Cuomo a journalist. He's not paid to be an unbiased journalist on his show and the show isn't presented as straight news. He's in the vein of Hannity or Carlson: people with opinions that get a platform. Nothing more.

I can write that Chris Cuomo is the President of China right now on there. As for their respective shows (Cuomo, Carlson, etc), they are not presented as journalism. To say otherwise shows you don't know the difference. Cuomo will tell you that flat out. He's said as much on his SiriusXM show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is hardly any straight news these days. Only opinions. Unfortunate. Furthers America's divide and it appears they are content with doing so. Sad.
