Janice Dean: Media encouraged Cuomo to 'promote himself,' didn't hold him accountable for nursing home deaths

Fox News senior meteorologist Janice Dean says the media is complicit in New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo's cover-up of the ballooning death count in New York nursing homes due to the coronavirus, and has failed to hold him accountable for his fatal policies that caused more than 15,000 elderly people in assisted living to die. 

"It was infuriating because not only did they [the media] protect Cuomo, but they encouraged him to promote himself," Dean said of the lack of media coverage following the bombshell admission this week by a top Cuomo aide that the administration purposely withheld COVID-19 data amid a Justice Department probe of nursing home fatalities in four states, including New York.  "All of the major news networks were showing fluff pieces of him and his family, his book. He sold a poster showing that COVID mountain and the fact that he had flattened the curve. He was promoting himself and making money off of the deaths of 40,000 New Yorkers," Fox News' senior meteorologist said.
