Andrew Cuomo is not only an ex-governor, he's an ex-Emmy winner. The International Academy of Television Arts & Sciences has revoked the special award the former New York governor got last year for his daily, televised coronavirus pandemic briefings.

The International Academy of Television Arts & Sciences said in a statement that given Cuomo’s resignation amid a torrent of sexual harassment allegations it was taking away the prize and removing any reference to him in its official materials.Cuomo left office at 12 a.m.

In 2017, the academy reversed its decision to give the Founders Award to actor Kevin Spacey after he was accused of sexual misconduct. Other recipients of the award over the years have included former Vice President Al Gore, TV icon Oprah Winfrey, and director Steven Spielberg.

The problem is they revoked it because he's a sexual deviant. They should have revoked it because he lied day and day about the death counts during his 'Emmy Award winning press conferences'. TelevisionAcad

Just follow the herd. Please keep following the cow’s ass ahead of you.

Emmy or no Emmy those press conferences gave millions the facts and were a source of comfort in a very dark and scary Covid world. I will never forget them. Thank you Governor Cuomo for your service. Cuomo

What's worse: Sexually harassing a handful of underlings or killing thousands of elderly New Yorkers via an incompetent directive?

gapundit The inevitable result of a largely political decision to award Cuomo an Emmy in the first place (of course forgetting all of his covid19 decision blunders along the way).

that they didn't yank it before now speaks volumes - zero credibility - pointless if you have Emmy sitting on your shelf today - dust collector

What a ridiculous decision. Did Andrew Cuomo's COVID briefings suddenly change? Were they no longer good enough? Was the jury incapable? Did the criteria suddenly change? This is becoming more and more of a witchhunt. Shameless and shameful at the same time.

He got an award for that? Stupid

Does the Nobel Committee revoke awards? (Asking for Robert Zimmerman).

Pos should have never been awarded to begin with.

I’m making over $7k a month working part time. I kept hearing other people tell me how much money they can make online so I decided to look into it. Well, it was all true and has totally changed my life. This is where i started....... ____ h­o­m­e­j­o­b­1­.c­o­m

Wow...did not see that one coming

Spiteful and petty. I already have 0 respect for the Emmys, so they can't lose any worth in my book.

Remember when Lefties thought he was the greatest leader ever? Good times.

Can we get the Coumo bridge named back to Tappan Zee also.

I don’t think that should happen. He really did earn that. But I hope never to hear about him ever again. He isn’t a good person.

That’s ridiculous. He may be a creep but he did a damn good job during NYC peak Covid.

I agree ge should have resigned but I disagree with this decision. One has nothing to do with the other.

Honestly, it never should have been awarded anyway. Has nothing to do with Cuomo. Has to do with not giving awards for updates to the general public in a pandemic.

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

All these orgs doing whatever the fake-woke throngs want them to do. As long as they’re taking your money they’ll pretend to be whatever you like.

AHAHAHAHHAAAAHAHAHAHHAAAAA

Anyone remember the show “Branded” with Chuck Connors, was on before the Rifleman. He was banished from the Army in the old West, they took his sword, broke it in half and threw the handle part at him. Branded, marked with a cowards name, what do you do when your branded.

Lame..

Dumb

Canceling an Emmy for what. Was there something about those broadcasts that is no longer valuable or that makes them no longer qualified for the award?

One thing has nothing to do with the other. While I certainly don’t condone his behavior, why do this?

Kathy Hochul becomes governor of New York as Cuomo leaves in disgraceKathy Hochul was sworn in as New York's first female governor shortly after the stroke of midnight on Tuesday, replacing her disgraced predecessor, Andrew Cuomo, who resigned amid multiple scandals, including a report from the state attorney general that found he sexually harassed 11 women. Welcome Kathy Hochul. But it's also important to remember that Cuomo did a lot of good things for New York State while they allowed him to. They need something like the air Marshall’s on the subway and panic buttons for when people act out or attack others in the subway. She is white.
