I never have far to look for my daily dose of schadenfreude.

This is bad but if your brother had obviously false allegations against him what would you do?

Then he should have recused himself from the story.

I mean he should have either way.

I guess we aren't used to journalists acting with that much integrity nowadays.

Yeah. Journalists nowadays are wanna be celebrities.

if a conservative I'd tell him he fucked up and is on his own. If a liberal media person I would collude with him and give him tips on covering it up, assuming I'd get away with it.

You are assuming he is guilty but I think the motive here was that they might find evidence the women were unreliable.

that's true i misread you and thought you said obviously guilty, my mistake

Scandals??

So this is about him knowing his brother was a serial sexual molester of ADULT women CHOOSING to stay there for their career, and not a murderer of the geriatric and infirmed??...

Unless both of those boys are tried and given a seat on a wooden chair or a firing squad, this is all just show.

Box checked, they can release him for a year or two, and rehire them both once it blows over in a year or two, a la the guy who masturbates to women on camera.

He's got a pretty good on-air presence. Most people don't know that he started out at Fox News. He got too comfortable in the culture of the MSM.

actors with good presence are a dime a dozen, just gotta be able to read lines.

Why did fox hire cuomos kid, likely a quid pro quo. quid pro cuomo lol. He probably has conservative based views in secret which is why he worked for fox. He asks women out and beats up hecklers who call him Fredo. Pretends to care about covid then goes out maskless.

besides his brother chris here is also in trouble because he was flirting with women too.

I'm sure he was hired at Fox for opportunity at access or, at the least, was a favor returned by a Fox News executive. I don't know about him being a secret conservative, but he definitely has a "rules for thee but not for me" attitude.

Yeah it's like how I think most politicians are "conservative" and I should define that as wanting to make money in a capitalist system and pay low taxes. There is money to be made pretending to be a liberal which would mean helping the poor and pretending to be woke. It's like how Pelosi gets rich on the stock market and has a mansion in florida.

You also have to factor in the God complex. Some people think they know better than most and should be able to live above the rest. Call it greed, self-preservation, or a false sense of self.

I think they know they are parasites and a detriment to society, just don't care.

Not a detriment, but that their place is above the others.
