New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) is at long last getting the level of scrutiny he deserves on the nursing home scandals conservative media outlets drew attention to months ago. That is a great thing – for victims of his disastrous COVID nursing home policy, their families, and for anyone interested in holding government officials accountable when they set bad policy that has deadly consequences.
As we’ve previously noted, however, one group that is not overly enthused about Cuomo finally facing the music in the court of public opinion are the Cuomo apologists at CNN, which gave the story of NY Attorney General Letitia James (D) dropping some inconvenient truths about the state’s coronavirus death toll in nursing homes the obligatory coverage before quickly rushing to move on.
