‘You Guys Are Pravda’ — CNN stages Chris Cuomo Emerging From Quarantine, but He Previously Went Out

Legal Insurrection

When CNN’s critics say it isn’t a news network, they are not exaggerating. Chris Cuomo has been broadcasting from his basement for weeks while quarantining after he came down with Coronavirus.Yesterday, they made a huge show of Cuomo emerging from his basement after being cleared by health officials.

. . . "This is literally fake news.

"On April 14th, Kate Sheehy of the New York Post reported on an incident involving Cuomo and a man on a bicycle who was questioning why Cuomo was breaking quarantine:

‘I hate bullies’: Bicyclist verbally attacked by Chris Cuomo fires back

The Long Island resident blasted as a “jackass loser fat-tire biker” by Chris Cuomo in a radio rant told The Post on Tuesday that the CNN host is nothing but a bully — and he has even filed a complaint with cops against him.

“Sometimes he’s scary stupid,” the East Hampton man, who asked to only be identified by his first name, David, said of Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s little brother.

Chris Cuomo launched into a tirade on his SiriusXM show Monday night about how he didn’t like what he did for a living anymore — and ranted about a confrontation he had with a bike rider outside his property Easter Sunday, when the coronavirus-infected TV star was hanging out with his family.  . . .

Thomas Lifson at American Thinker commented at length: ...CNN and Chris Cuomo stage an utterly fake event to dramatize a phony re-emergence from quarantine

. . . "CNN obviously thinks its audience is so stupid that the network can get away with this.  Only the idiotic, ignorant, or amnesiac among its audience (admittedly, a sizable portion) would be taken in, but it is so blatant that even lefty outfits like NBC ("Chris Cuomo 'Finally' Leaves His Basement, Reunites With Family After Coronavirus Quarantine") and New York Magazine ("Chris Cuomo Airs Moment He Could 'Finally Emerge' From Basement, a Week After Leaving Basement") raised skeptical eyebrows.

"Conservative media were less restrained.  Breitbart's John Nolte called it the "fake newsiest fake news in all of Fakenewsdom," and the New York Post's Maureen Callahan went biblical: "Not since Lazarus has the world heard of such an unbelievable rise."

"Chris Cuomo is the Rosie Ruiz of network anchors and ought to be known by that title from now on."
