NY Dem blasts reporter who asked why she appeared with Andrew Cuomo after demanding he resign
Fox News
New York Assemblywoman Diana Richardson snapped at a reporter Wednesday after being asked whether or not it was hypocritical of her to appear at a press conference with Gov. Andrew Cuomo a couple of months after demanding he resign over sexual misconduct allegations.
"With all due respect ma'am, that question is inappropriate for the topic of this press conference," Richardson explained. "As you have heard eloquently put from my partners as well as the governor, we are in a state of emergency. This is not the time for us to be in our emotions or in people’s personal endeavors. This is a time to be solution-oriented and focused." Cuomo, who was standing behind Richardson at the time, began to clap and smile as she finished speaking and was joined in doing so by several other lawmakers on the stage.More Related News
