Top Media Critic Blasts CNN While On CNN Over Cuomo Scandal: ‘A Major Black Eye For CNN’

A top media critic from The Washington Post appeared on CNN’s “Reliable Sources” on Sunday where he blasted the network for its handling of Chris Cuomo’s interviews with his brother, New York Democratic Governor Andrew Cuomo.

Washington Post media critic Erik Wemple called out CNN for allowing host Chris Cuomo to interview his own brother during the middle of the pandemic in segments that were often panned as silly by critics, and then later banning Chris Cuomo from interviewing his brother after the governor started to face a nursing home scandal and allegations of sexual misconduct.
