She said Cuomo asked her about her personal life, including whether she thought age made a difference in romantic relationships, and had said he was open to relationships with women in their 20s — comments she saw as overtures to a sexual relationship. nytimes.com/2021/02/27/nyr…
“I understood that the governor wanted to sleep with me, and felt horribly uncomfortable and scared,” Ms. Bennett said. “And was wondering how I was going to get out of it and assumed it was the end of my job.”

“The way he was repeating, ‘You were raped and abused and attacked and assaulted and betrayed,’ over and over again while looking me directly in the eyes was something out of a horror movie,” she wrote to her friend. “It was like he was testing me.”

Cuomo said today that governors were not responsible for sounding warnings about coming pandemics: “Where were all the experts? Where was The NY Times?”
Let’s look at just three of numerous examples from our coverage:
• Jan. 26: "WUHAN, China — A top Chinese health official warned on Sunday that the spread of the dangerous new coronavirus, already extraordinarily rapid, is accelerating further."

NYT Scoop: Michael Cohen, Trump's ex-lawyer, is under investigation for bank fraud in excess of $20 million. Charges could come soon. nyti.ms/2PnEiEV
Criminal charges against Cohen would deal a significant blow to Trump. Cohen worked for the president’s company, the Trump Organization, for more than a decade. He was one of Trump’s most loyal and visible aides.
nyti.ms/2PnEiEV
If Cohen cooperates with prosecutors to avoid indictment, that would likely include a provision that he provide information to the special counsel, Mueller, who is investigating possible involvement by Trump's campaign in Russia’s election meddling.

@nytimes He added: "I told the president directly that I thought that his language was not just divisive but increasingly dangerous. I told him that although the phrase ‘fake news' is untrue and harmful, I am far more concerned about his labeling journalists 'the enemy of the people.’"
