CNN’s Cuomo: Being
Called ‘Fake News’ the ‘Equivalent of the ‘N-word’ for Journalists’
by Jeff Poor 9 Feb 2017
Thursday on SiriusXM POTUS’s “Smerconish,” CNN’s
“New Day” co-host Chris Cuomo bemoaned President Donald Trump’s
criticism of him for his handling of an interview with Sen. Richard
Blumenthal (D-CT).
Blumenthal alleged Trump’s nominee for Supreme Court
associate justice Neil Gorsuch had told him he was disheartened by the
president’s comments about a judge who ruled to place a stay on his
executive order.
Trump had alleged Cuomo failed to question Blumenthal
about statements leading up to his 2010 run for the U.S. Senate, apparently
misrepresenting his military service.
Cuomo pointed that he had brought up Blumenthal’s
misrepresentation and decried Trump’s critique, likening it to be called the
“n-word.”
“The only thing that’s bothersome about it is that I
see being called ‘fake news’ as the equivalent of the ‘n-word’ for journalists,
the equivalent of calling an Italian any of the ugly words that people have for
that ethnicity,” Cuomo said. “That’s what fake news is to a journalist.”
That was similar to what Cuomo said earlier on “New Day”
in a segment immediately following Trump’s post of the tweet.
“Fake news is the worst thing that you could call a
journalist,” he said. “It’s like an ethnic disparagement. We all have these
ugly words for people, and that’s the one for journalists.”
