Chris Cuomo apologizes to CNN, admits he advised Andrew Cuomo on scandal

CNN host Chris Cuomo apologized on air Thursday night for advising his older brother Gov. Andrew Cuomo on handling his sexual harassment scandal.

Cuomo, who infamously interviewed the governor about New York’s COVID-19 response throughout the pandemic, emphasized on his primetime program that he never covered his brother’s scandals in Albany. “Now today there are stories out there about me offering my brother advice,” Cuomo told viewers at the start of his show, “Cuomo Prime Time.”
