CBSN
CNN anchor and journalist Chris Cuomo sought to help tailor former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo's responses to allegations of sexual misconduct, according to documents released Monday by the state's attorney general. Chris Cuomo has previously acknowledged involvement in his brother's response to the allegations, but the new documents shed light on his day-to-day communications with a top aide to the governor.
In one series of March 2021 text messages between Chris Cuomo, who is the former governor's younger brother, and Melissa DeRosa, the aide, Cuomo offered critical notes on a statement previously released on the governor's behalf.
"Please let me help with the prep," he texted DeRosa on March 3, two days after he sent the notes and his own version, which he told DeRosa was what the then-governor "should have said."

A week before an expected committee vote on the controversial nomination of Trump ally Emil Bove for a federal judgeship, CBS News has obtained emails and text messages shared with Congress by a whistleblower who accuses Bove of unethical actions while he was a top Justice Department official this year.
