Well, That Was Awkward....

As CNN’s Chris Cuomo completely ignored the big story on his prime time show about his brother Andrew Cuomo and the calls for his resignation, he ended his show by handing off to Don Lemon.

It should also be added that the New York AG says that Chris Cuomo was involved in trying to help his brother wade firestorm of allegations

After some chit-chat Lemon said “I love ya brother”, Cuomo responded “I love ya D. Lemon.”

And then Lemon went on to cover the Cuomo’s saga, which Chris had ignored for the previous hour on his CNN show.

Can you say awkward?

Watch the handoff:

Since everyone from the President on down are calling for Andrew Cuomo’s resignation and the fact that the AG singled out Chris Cuomo as his role in her investigation, CNN should pull Chris from the air.

They can replace Chris Cuomo with someone that is going to report the big story and not ignore it like Cuomo did on his show.

If CNN boss Jeff Zucker had a clue, Chris Cuomo would have been off the air and would continue to be off the air, until the Andrew Cuomo story is not dominating the news cycle.

CNN’s media critic and Jeff Zucker mouthpiece, Brian Stelter tried to show that CNN was covering the story, despite the conflict.

Stelter said that CNN’s coverage “was scathing ALL afternoon and evening.”

Well Brian, we know one hour of CNN prime time where that was simply not true.

CNN needs to do better.

Oh! Lastly, it might be time for CNN to change the Twitter bio for Cuomo’s show.

Cleary, it’s a lie.
