Cuomo Gets Blasted by Conway for Pushing Fake News on Climate Change
Somehow, CNN thought it’d be an excellent idea to give New Day co-host Chris Cuomo a week-long tryout for a possible primetime show.

Vice Says Silent Taylor Swift May Be Responsible for Trump

VIDEO: CNN’s Chris Cuomo Can't Stop Politicizing Hurricane Harvey
In the midst of the horrific devastation Texans are experiencing due to Hurricane Harvey, CNN New Day host Chris Cuomo can’t stop politicizing the situation.

Ironically, Cuomo’s most often repeated phrase? Republicans “played politics” with…

NYT Piles on, Laments Houston’s ‘Untrammeled Growth,’ ‘Laissez-Faire’
Showing the timeliness and sensitivity it’s renowned for, the political left is using the tragedy of Hurricane Harvey in Houston to excoriate it as an example of an untrammeled free market run amok, and suggests such laissez-faire policies made the damaging storm even more dangerous.
