Execs who helped Cuomo smear accuser work at firm making millions from state contracts, AG report finds

Two former Cuomo staffers who helped their old boss smear sexual harassment accuser Lindsey Boylan work for a politically connected public relations firm that is raking in millions from state contracts, according to government records and the attorney general’s investigation.

The PR firm Kivvit says its managing directors Josh Vlasto and Rich Bamberger — who are accused of helping Cuomo’s office “discredit and disparage” Boylan — were working for the governor in a “personal capacity” at the time. But the firm also does extensive business with the state of New York and is responsible for distributing about $88 million in taxpayer money, public records show.
