2019.08.12 Fredogate
From iGeek
Chris Cuoma threatened someone and said calling him Fredo was the N-word to Italians. It isn't. And he is a Fredo.

Facts[edit | edit source]
- Chris Cuomo, CNN's FakeNews reporter and socialist in chief
- He got his job for being the Son of Mario Cuomo, and Brother of Andrew Cuomo (failed Governors of NY)
- He got mad because someone called him "Fredo" after the "black sheep" in the fictional Corleone family fuckup (in the Godfather).
- Chris was outraged and was caught on video threatening to throw the guy down the stairs if he called him that again, and raged later that when this went viral, it was like the N-word to dagoes like him.
- Only it wasn't a slur against all Italians.... it is a targeted slight against just the failure of a family (not at all alike).
- Trump Jr. mocked Chris for anger management issues and pointing out that RedFlag laws meant his guns should be taken away for his violence outburst, so the media defended Fredo.
- For the record: Chris had allowed the slur be used on his show without complaining about its severity, and he referred to himself as it on a radio show in the past, so it most definitely wasn't about the severity of the term.
- While CNN defended him and the outburst, everyone who can fog a mirror knows that if they were a real Journalistic institution, a reporter that makes the story about himself, isn't a good journalist... and if it had been a conservative that made the outburst, CNN would have attacked them relentless for weeks.
So FakeNews doubled down with a side of hypocrisy.
