CNN personality Chris Cuomo is in hot water after some leaked audio tape surfaced last night. Cuomo supposedly speaking with attorney Michael Cohen, former fixer for President Donald Trump. The clip was featured Tuesday on Fox News’ hit show “Tucker Carlson Tonight.”
Cuomo reportedly said, “You know, I’m always careful when I talk to media, you know? … You know many f***ing phone calls I’ve gotten from people at ABC who say that reporters are calling and lying about things they heard about me to try to get stories about me when I was at ABC? Guys calling and saying, “I heard he was the Charlie Rose of ABC. He used to invite women to the hotel and open his bathrobe.” Do I look like the kind of f***ing guy who’s gotta do that?”
As Cohen replied, “Sure. Why not?”
Then Cuomo continued, “lying saying, “I have a good source that says he forced one woman to have sex. I just want to know if you’ve ever heard anything like that.” There is no woman. There is none of that.”
Cohen chimed in, “So, here’s the problem…” With Cuomo telling, “Women who do work there, saying, ‘oh, yeah, you know, some of these of men,’ and naming me with other guys. “You know, we bumped into each other once in the elevator and he put his hand on my shoulder and he made me really uncomfortable.” I mean, what the f***?”
Plus he added, “I’m careful with the media always. I’ve always told you, the media is not your friend.” That is confirmed by Cohen saying, “No.”
And Carlson announced, “Whoa…there’s a lot to unpack here, but the first thing you notice is that Chris Cuomo was agitated. He’s mad. Really mad. And you know what makes him maddest of all? The suggestion that he’s gotta act like some old guy, Charlie Rose, to get the ladies.”
He stated, “Sandbagging women in hotel rooms with an open bathrobe, ‘do I look like kind of f***ing guy whose gotta do that?’ he asked his pal, Michael Cohen, Cohen’s response? ‘Sure, why not?’ Open bathrobes seem normal to Michael Cohen.”
