Chris Cuomo is a US former CNN journalist who has been named by a range of people as a purveyor of "fake news".

Background

Chris Cuomo is brother of New York Governor Andrew Cuomo and son of former New York Governor Mario Cuomo.

"Fake News"

In 2015 Cuomo claimed on Twitter that "hate speech" is unprotected by the First Amendment, which led to some media reports stating that he was in error.[1][2][3]

In a 2016 CNN segment about the political fallout surrounding Hillary Clinton and the ongoing leaks of the Podesta emails, Cuomo said: "Also interesting is, remember, it's illegal to possess these stolen documents. It’s different for the media, so everything you're learning about this, you’re learning from us." Some legal experts contested his assertions.[4][5]

In March 2017 he was shortlisted by 21st Century Wire for the 2017 Horace Greeley Award for Best Fake News Journalist, but did not win. 21st Century Wire wrote that: "Cuomo claimed that a 'Schweppes Bomb' brought down the airliner in Egypt. In 2016, he out did himself (not an easy feat) by announcing that the public should NOT look at Wikileaks' Podesta emails online, declaring, 'it’s illegal to possess, ah, the stolen documents — it’s different for the media. So everything you’re learning about this, you’re learning from us.' In other words, 'let CNN look at them and CNN will tell you what’s worth commenting on. On this point alone, Cuomo, who missed his natural calling a sports broadcaster, has reserved his place in the Fake News Hall of Fame."[6]

He was fired from CNN in December 2021 for using his influence to help his brother, in a clear conflict of interest.[7] He started his own online show afterwards.[8]

He pushed the Covid jabs hard in 2021, accusing people who refused of being "ignorant" and "scared." In 2024, he admitted being jab injured, including himself in the category of people "having weird stuff with their blood work and their lives and their feelings – you know, physically – are not going away.", and called for a "9/11 style commission to answer questions about the vaccine rollout and why millions of people are suffering health consequences after mRNA injections.[9]
