Place one Cuomo brother as governor of New York, and the other as a co-host on CNN’s morning show “New Day,” and you’ve a recipe for TV that even Jon Stewart can’t watch without laughing.
On Tuesday night the host of “The Daily Show” took a recent appearance of New York Gov. Cuomo (D) on “New Day” to compile all the times he has razzed his younger bother Chis Cuomo, who hosts the show.
The latest hazing was an interview about two escaped murderers from New York who broke out of prison and remain at large.
“Now you’re surely saying to yourself, it’s not like the executive of America’s fourth most populous state is gonna take time during an interview about escaped murderers to give his brother shit,” Stewart said. “Well.”
After getting through the serious stuff, Gov. Cuomo joked to co-host Alisyn Camerota that he wanted to see his brother do a “long-term journalism piece” where his brother could stay locked in prison for about a year.
CNN cut to Chris Cuomo in studio, who looked not at all amused.
“That is a face that stopped being amused by this shit at age six,” Stewart said.
The next example had Stewart bursting out laughing in spite of himself.
