CNN's Fredo does his version of "You ain't Black" like he is

Is Chris "Fredo" Cuomo racist? Probably not, but there is ample proof that the Compromised News Network's village idiot is a total jerk and his latest statement was deemed "f**king offensive."

The 50-year-old overachieving brother of embattled Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D-NY) was immediately blasted after a clip was shared Friday showing him hand over to CNN colleague Don LeMon by singing the theme to 1970s’ TV show "Good Times."

Laughing awkwardly like a southern belle, his eyes shyly lowered, LeMon asked his fellow bubble-brain how he knew the words to the TV series about a black family living in a public housing project in Chicago.

"You know I’m Black on the inside," Cuomo responded. And if you don't believe Fredo, you ain't Black.

Although LeMon ignored the comment, it was quickly picked up on Twitter where it was discussed with all the venom the social media website could offer on the spur of the moment.

"It’s f–ing offensive," tweeted Sister2Sister magazine managing editor Aisha Staggers, who said that "Black is not a costume."

After that post, Staggers' mother washed her fingers out with soap.

But Staggers is correct--black is not a costume--it's a skin color resulting from a higher level of melanin than other skin colors. Anything else about black being other than a skin color is based on learned behavior and is often racist.

Many commentators compared Fredo to his embattled brother, [aka "Handy Andy"] who now faces myriad calls for his resignation, not because he is responsible for 15,000 deaths of helpless nursing home residents from COVID-19, but from acting inappropriately with 5 (so far) women. 

The governor's sexual misconduct is merely a distraction used to turn your attention away from how Andy was covered by the media and his political buddies. They would be hopelessly embarrassed if he was impeached over his handling of the coronavirus.

Other Twitter users also had something to say about Fredo's comment:

In the "black on the inside"
"Maybe his heart," @docsamson829 joked.

Rev. Mary Dande said she "had to turn off the television because I’m not here for that nonsense." She tweeted:

CNN needs to have some sensitivity training with their on-air personalities

Another good idea would be to have CNN actually cover the news on both sides of the aisle. Why is it that Fredo could do a comedy routine with Handy Andy when everyone thought the governor was doing a good job, but as soon as he got outed as a sexual predator who kills old folks, he no longer could cover him because "he's my brother." 

It's truly amazing how people on the left don't see the media for what it is.
