His commentary resonated with me, and I find his candor reinvigorating and relatable. Keep in mind that Krystal and Saagar are only discussing a part of the interview excised from its context, and yet as they expound on what he said in that part, even they acknowledge his frustration.

The title of the article and the way this was created into a clickbait drama reenforces precisely what Cuomo was speaking about, and it makes me sigh and feel older in my bones. If you listen to the entirely of the interview where he talks about how getting coronavirus shaped his outlook on the pandemic and caused existential reflection, that changes the light of the comments focused on. He did not say he hated his job.

I think many jobs worth having entail aspects you passionately dislike and make you question yourself for it, especially when emotionally and physically depleted. Being honest about that doesn't equate to not liking your job. Examining your emotions and expressing them can be cathartic and clarifying. Many have said they hate the very job they love, out of frustration that billows up to the point where they vent it out. It feels so shallow to me that there's this lack of acknowledgement of that, especially given the circumstances.

Bicyclist who was 'verbally attacked' by CNN's Chris Cuomo has slammed the host for being a 'bully' | Daily Mail Online

Even when read from the bicyclist's perspective it's obvious it is he who deliberately harassed Chris Cuomo and his wife and children while they were peacefully enjoying their Easter, but it's typical that when someone has been a bully they DARVO (deny, attack, reverse victim and offender). Cuomo, his wife, a friend, and three children were on private property, not biking themselves or traipsing about.
He'd been isolated from them for weeks, working in quarantine from his basement while being afflicted by coronavirus. It's now safe for him to reemerge and reunite with them, and it's outraging and shameful this bicyclist tried to rob them of that joy out of ignorant and petty spitefulness. The bicyclist, out enjoying the day himself, decided to wreck their peace. I did not get to celebrate my stepmom's birthday or spend Easter as a whole family, as we always do, because she's a physician treating patients with COVID-19 and is living isolated from us for our protection. This biker's despicable actions infuriate me. I'm shaking in anger at what he did. It's shameful.

Personally I like Chris' show. I also do think.he has a bit of a temper after seeing a heated discourse with a stranger on the street and I'm sure his job wears on him and the $ reigned him back in. Heck people working in customer service jobs put up with a lot more abuse for a lot less money so I'll not feel sorry for him.

He makes a huge salary so he is paid well for his frustrations. I think a lot of trouble could be saved across the board if reporters just went back to reporting without the biased commentary. And it is biased. It will illicit reactions from people. What’s sad is their families are the casualties. Nobody should be surprised as long as reporters continue to try to school everyone on how they should think.

I did not notice his temper really until he got sick and was being filmed in his basement. I felt sorry for him then.

The bicyclist antagonized his family, including his children, on Easter Day, out of ignorance and vindictiveness, then had the audacity to call him the bully. Having grown up in LA I am friends with several kids of celebrities, and know how it impacts them when random people decide that fame invalidates a person's humanity. That the public is therefore entitled to intrude upon their privacy, to insult or confront them even with their children present. This is frequently shrugged off with the sentiment that they're well compensated for their frustrations, but yet their children didn't choose their occupations for them and also bear the brunt of such antics.

In the video in post 2 it's not just CNN that is called out, but Fox News and other networks. The bias is tailored by the audiences. There are analysts who work for these networks, looking specifically at what their viewers are attracted to, and present that material to producers. The frustration Cuomo felt is one many others have, but just haven't expressed it. The viewers need to push for changes. Bias is very palpable on forums as well, shaped by analytics and personal attitudes impacting moderating decisions. Look at the featured threads here, and you can easily figure out patterns like what you see on news channels. If you want to see different content - anywhere - advocate for it.

I agree with Cimorene's comment and share in her dismay and confusion.

I don’t disagree. This is being discussed on the news. My point in posting was for discussion. I think it’s quite clear why he is frustrated. Posting topics to discuss is not an attack. It is a topic to discuss. Posting various viewpoints to the topic only adds to it. This was not an attack against a Cuomo. I’m sorry if this has left you confused. It was not my intention.

I started with the first two articles and ended it with the Vanity Fair piece. I do not understand the confusion to be honest. I thought it was pretty clear. The first two links were what we are fed daily. I mean, did anyone read the Vanity Fair article I ended it with?? I thought it was pretty obvious this was not an attack on Cuomo.

He had the virus, and was suppose to be in the basement away from everyone. NOT in his front yard with his wife and kids. She now has the virus.

I feel bad for him, and now his wife. Yet, you are suppose to stay away from your family during this time. Sadly, you have to wonder if his kids will get it next.

He'd been isolated from them for weeks, working in quarantine from his basement while being afflicted by coronavirus. It's now safe for him to reemerge and reunite with them, . . .

No comment on Cuomo's comments, the Biker, the Baker or the Candlestick maker.

Regarding Cuomo coming out of quarantine.. and I'm sure he followed the guidelines as well as his doctors recommendations. But this is as good a place as any to post a CDC guideline link for others.

If his wife tested positive now, it means she was exposed up to 2 weeks ago. Probably possibly when she was helping him to set up for isolation or she was maybe bringing him meals or taking the dishes away from him to wash, etc... It doesn't mean she got it after he came out from isolation at Easter weekend. He didn't give it to his wife by reuniting with her , it may have happened before that. It would be hard to not spread it even if you were in isolation , if there are others living in the same home as you and they must bring you meals and wash up after things a sick person has touched. She may have had to go to the store and caught it from someone there.
Sandy Patti and her husband had it and were in isolation together in their home. When they did not have a fever for over 72 hours, only then did they go out in their yard as they were following their doctors guidelines because they missed the sun.

I hope their children are spared from catching it.

Me too. I doubt Cuomo wanted his wife to get it nor does he want his children to get it; I read he was heartbroken. Even if a family member isolates, it's still possible for a family member to get it when they all live together and some has to wash clothes or dishes from an infected person or if the well person has to get food or meds from a store and has to go out. We are all at risk of that if a member of our household gets sick even with strict precautions and cleaning. It's just reality of living with our family in a home together.

All good possibilities on her exposure, but he still broke the isolation and came outside. You would hope people wouldn't take that chance, and he did to watch his kids play...which exposed them too.

I would be going stir crazy myself, but his breaking the isolation could have indeed spread it to his family as well.

If he had been a certain number of days without a fever his doctor may have advised him it was okay to come out into his own yard and be out of isolation after 2 weeks. Sandi Patti (a Christian singer)is another that did the same thing with her doctor's approval . Being around his wife last weekend did not give her the virus. She would have already been exposed up to two weeks prior before she tested positive this week.
