Andrew Cuomo's Emmy has been Rescinded!

That doesn’t seem fair.

So now he has to start all over again in is quest for an EGOT?

He can be my sugar daddy

Has there ever been another Emmy ever given for giving a press conference?

Somewhat draconian in my estimation ...

You can’t take back an award after it’s earned. Can you take back Michael Phelp’s gold medals because of what he did afterwards? Can you take back Simone Biles’ gold medals because she quit this year? Can take back Glenn’s Oscars because of Hillbillly Elergy? Can you take back Ted Mosby’s math PhD because he’s the Unibomber? No, they earned it and nothing they do should negate that fact.

Gosh how many Emmy's would be rescinded if the Academy got serious about taking them away from 'sex-pests'. Pretty much any male recipient would lose their Emmy, and no doubt a few women come to think of it!

we get it

And Hollywood wonders why they’re mocked.

I didn’t realize that the award is based on your personal life.

Aw that sucks

Give me my precious back

I thought his getting an Emmy for a press conference was hilarious, but this is even more hilarious.

but my nominations are secure

Kick a guy when he's down. Way to go, Emmy!

Cuomo may be a bit of a schmuck at times but he sure knew how to give a briefing during the worst days of the pandemic. He took the lead when the Orange Menace was in denial, lying or ignoring the facts. I'll always be grateful to him for that fact.

And not a fucking moment too soon

Bill Cosby still has his 7 Emmy Awards.

So fucking stupid. But the Emmys suck anyway. The first awards show I stopped watching long ago (there are only the Tonys and especially the Oscars).

I've always found Cuomo a creepy and a blowhard. What an obvious nose job too!

There was always something smarmy and Mafia-like about this man. Men like Cuomo give decent Italian/Americans a bad name. That New Yawk tough guy schtick is such a turn-off.

Since all these sexual allegations have surfaced, and we never heard the real reasons why Sandra Lee broke up with him, you just know it had something to do with his behavior towards the women he worked with. Sandra wasted 14-15 years with Cuomo.

Sandra has moved on, with a new man and a giant diamond ring! 💍💎

So will another governor get that award instead?

Please tell me he's keeping the nipple piercings!

NIPPLE PIERCINGS?

Can't imagine this dude with his nips pierced. 🤢 🤮

Totally ridiculous of the Emmy academy or whatever it is called. SMH

Bill Cosby's were never rescinded and he went to jail for committing crimes.

Right now, everything against Cuomo is alleged and it's very iffy if any crime was committed.

This is total bullshit.

I don't yet the attraction, both gay men and straight women find this man "hot", he's so meh. I guess the bar is very low for politicians.

He's got scary buggy eyes and a Cro-Magnon face, ugh. Then there's that fake smarmy smile and those obvious capped teeth.

I despise Trump, but Cuomo is just as unattractive in his own way, except he does have his own hair and isn't a fat fetid mess like Agent Orange.

Yes, this is absolutely ridiculous

What’s an international Emmy?

Now let's change the Tappan Zee Bridge back to it's real. Enough with politicians naming public works after themselves. Most are highly fucking incompetent!

Now do Polanski's Oscar.

(Wait, what -- they gave him an Oscar AFTER he became a fugitive?)

This is so stupid. Cosby has his Emmys but they took Cuomo’s away. Of course he never should have gotten one. Fortunately, with each new woke change the awards become more meaningless.

[quote]Can you take back Ted Mosby’s math PhD because he’s the Unibomber?

Wait.

Ted Mosby from How I Met Your Mother was the Unabomber?!

Emmys patting themselves on the back and with much self-perpetuated publicity. Nobody gives a shit who has an Emmy. They give them to local news folks and casting directors. Worthless.

And, as others have pointed out, where the fuck is the outrage that Cosby has his?

Cosby’s seven Emmies should be rescinded, one for each rape.

I still don't understand how he won an Emmy.

Cynthia Nixon:

[quote]The difference between me and Andrew Cuomo? Neither of us is governor, but I still have my Emmy(s).

He's now fallen into ranks of Bonnie Franklin -- those who were snubbed by the Emmys.

Do they send him a box to return his statue? Good luck with that.

Now take back all the Emmys illegally stolen by [italic]Friends[/italic] and redistribute them to Black sitcoms.

Cynthia’s kind of a cunt for that.

R40 It reads like a comment someone would make on DL.

He was a scumbag when he won that contrived award and he is still a scumbag.

There needs to be an investigation into the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences. The whole nomination and award process is corrupt if this happened at all.

Whew. Top of the world last year at this time. Amazing how far someone can fall. And he ain't the type to come back.

Just goes to show you how much work you have to do to "win" an Emmy.

It's kinda like an honorary degree in.....stuff.

[quote]And he ain't the type to come back.

How you figure?

R45 Not kinda, this is absolutely an honorary thing. This particular Emmy was never competitive, it's one handed out by the Academy without a vote or a shortlist, etc. I was going to suggest that's why they're rescinding his, but Cosby keeps his Emmys - but Cosby was awarded the same Emmy in 1992.

Funnily enough they were going to give Spacey the same award in 2017.

Did he already get the award (the actual trophy) or was it to be presented at this year's ceremony?

It was given last Nov. That would have been after the Emmys.

(and how dumb were they to give it to him anyway? even without the sexual issues he still had the nursing home scandal.)

It was to stick it to Donald Trump, pure and simple. They hate him more than they care about anything else.

Yeah r49.

Trump hatred killed many New York nursing home residents. Yes Trump didn't handle the pandemic well at all but sending that ship up to NYC and creating space at the armory or whatever it was for the infected was one thing he got right but Cuomo didn't want to give him any credit so people died needlessly.

So you don’t even have to be a person to win this Emmy? HBO won in 2003 and MTV won in 2004.

R48 Yes it was awarded. Acceptance video, complete with congratulations from de Niro, Billy Crystal, Spike Lee, Ben Stiller, Billy Joel and Rosie Perez, linked. This is the International Emmys, not the Primetime Emmys, it was held in November

Do you think Chris is going to try to make his brother feel better?

R50, absolute nonsense.

The ship was meant for non-Covid patients, but it was so hard for hospitals to send patients to a different location, have them tested, and, if negative, they would be sent to the ship, hospitals didn’t do it—it was a waste of time an energy.

No r54. Eventually the ship was opened to covid patients. Even before the ship arrived Cuomo still screwed up by forcing nursing homes to take in covid patienst they weren't equipped to handle.

Plus he's a molester.

But he made it quite clear, r55, that if the nursing home was not able to properly care for those people, such as quarantining, they were to call the DOH and the DOH would find another place for those people.

The nur$ing home$ weren’t going to lose their patient$ like that.

He’s a piece of shit. So is his dumb ass brother.

R46 Oh he'll try, but he's not liked well enough. It won't work.

While I can see rescinding an honorary award, rescinding a merit-based award (it's hard to tell whether this is one or not) essentially tells everyone that the award was political to begin with and had nothing to do with merit.

If the award actually had something to do with the reason it was rescinded - a Nobel Peace Prize given to someone who later turns out to have committed war crimes - I might also go along with it.

Cuomo's last act as governor was to grant clemency to a terrorist cop killer who just coincidentally is the father of the San Francisco democratic DA.

Soooo glad I am a gay male.

[Quote] Eventually the ship was opened to covid patients.

Yes, in the very end, the ship was opened to Covid patients because the ship wasn’t being used to house the non-Covid patients as originally intended. The medical personnel on the ship weren’t trained to take care of ICU level patients and the ship was never meant to care for them.

Cuomo’s policies regarding nursing homes and Covid patients sent back after hospitalization killed no one. People aren’t infectious after hospitalization. It was the staff and visitors who brought in Covid. After NY, nursing homes all around the country saw huge spikes in Covid infection despite not repeating what Cuomo did. It didn’t matter. In fact, it’s happening again

[quote] People aren’t infectious after hospitalization.

They are if they are returned to the nursing home will still sick, which was done.

He's history now anyway. Why defend him? He's a molester.

[quote] He's history now anyway

History like a pebble dropped into a pond. The ripples continue even after the stone sinks forever into the muck..

Washington (CNN) Time's Up CEO Tina Tchen on Thursday announced she was resigning from her position at the women's rights organization amid backlash over its connection to former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo's sexual harassment scandal.

"Now is the time for TIME'S UP to evolve and move forward as there is so much more work to do for women. It is clear that I am not the leader who can accomplish that in this moment," Tchen said in a statement posted to her Twitter account.

"I am especially aware that my position at the helm of TIME'S UP has become a painful and divisive focal point, where those very women and other activists who should be working together to fight for change are instead battling each other in harmful ways. Therefore, it is time for me to resign and continue to work for change in other ways, and to let TIME'S UP engage in the thoughtful and meaningful process I know will occur to move forward."

Tchen's resignation came a day after The Washington Post reported that she had texted colleagues to "stand down" from a plan to release a statement in support of Cuomo's first accuser, Lindsey Boylan, after people connected to Time's Up met with Melissa DeRosa, Cuomo's top aide at the time.

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — Delivering another blow to what’s left of former Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s legacy, New York’s new governor acknowledged on her first day in office that the state has had nearly 12,000 more deaths from COVID-19 than Cuomo told the public.

“The public deserves a clear, honest picture of what’s happening. And that’s whether it’s good or bad, they need to know the truth. And that’s how we restore confidence,” Gov. Kathy Hochul said on NPR.

In its first daily update on the outbreak Tuesday evening, Hochul’s office reported that nearly 55,400 people have died of the coronavirus in New York based on death certificate data submitted to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

That’s up from about 43,400 that Cuomo reported to the public as of Monday, his last day in office. The Democrat who was once widely acclaimed for his leadership during the COVID-19 outbreak resigned in the face of an impeachment drive after being accused of sexually harassing at least 11 women, allegations he disputed.

The higher number is not entirely new. 𝑭𝒆𝒅𝒆𝒓𝒂𝒍 𝒉𝒆𝒂𝒍𝒕𝒉 𝒐𝒇𝒇𝒊𝒄𝒊𝒂𝒍𝒔 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒔𝒐𝒎𝒆 𝒂𝒄𝒂𝒅𝒆𝒎𝒊𝒄 𝒊𝒏𝒔𝒕𝒊𝒕𝒖𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒔 𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒄𝒌𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑪𝑶𝑽𝑰𝑫-19 𝒅𝒆𝒂𝒕𝒉𝒔 𝒊𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑼.𝑺. 𝒉𝒂𝒗𝒆 𝒃𝒆𝒆𝒏 𝒖𝒔𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒉𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒆𝒓 𝒕𝒂𝒍𝒍𝒚 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒎𝒂𝒏𝒚 𝒎𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒉𝒔 𝒃𝒆𝒄𝒂𝒖𝒔𝒆 𝒐𝒇 𝒌𝒏𝒐𝒘𝒏 𝒈𝒂𝒑𝒔 𝒊𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒅𝒂𝒕𝒂 𝑪𝒖𝒐𝒎𝒐 𝒉𝒂𝒅 𝒃𝒆𝒆𝒏 𝒄𝒉𝒐𝒐𝒔𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒕𝒐 𝒑𝒖𝒃𝒍𝒊𝒄𝒊𝒛𝒆.

They hid 12,000 deaths?

They should name a bridge after him. They can call it the Tappan Dat Ass bridge.

He shouldn't have gotten an Emmy in the first place. But-- the whole thing is ridiculous. He's ridiculous, the Emmy awards are ridiculous...just a bunch of degenerates patting a bunch of other degenerates on the back.

He can now retire and spend his day fucking hookers.

His Datalounge fans are left with egg on their face once again.
