MSNBC strangely avoided covering the sexual harassment scandal plaguing its direct liberal competitor, CNN.
Veteran TV producer Shelley Ross alleged in a New York Times guest essay published Friday morning that CNN anchorgrabbed her buttock at an event in 2005 when the two of them worked at ABC News. She even included an email he sent to her at the time apologizing for the incident. Cuomo reiterated his apology to his former boss in a statement to the Times.
However, MSNBC turned a blind eye to the newly-emerged controversy, avoiding any mention of it throughout the day's programming, according to Grabien transcripts. MSNBC and CNN rarely address each other's embarrassing headlines. MSNBC offered minimal coverage of Cuomo's involvement in the scandals of his brother, former New York Gov.
The Peacock Network also completely avoided the awkward return of CNN's chief legal analyst and Zoom masturbation star Jeffrey Toobin, per Grabien. CNN, in return, almost never covers MSNBC's controversies and the outlandish commentary. More recently, CNN harped on Nicki Minaj's tweets expressing vaccine hesitancy but managed to avoid mentioning the viral spat the rapper superstar had with MSNBC host Joy Reid. Cuomo took a page from MSNBC's playbook and stayed silent during Friday night's"Cuomo Prime Time."
CNN has yet to publicly acknowledge the scandal hitting its biggest star. The only mention from any of Cuomo's colleagues was buried in Brian Stelter's"Reliable Source" newsletter.
