Overview

  • Sen. John Kennedy canceled a live NewsNation interview with Chris Cuomo minutes before airtime without explanation or apology.
  • Cuomo condemned the move as a 'cowardly' and 'punk-ass' decision, accusing Kennedy of avoiding tough questions about Trump and election denial.
  • The interview was expected to address Trump's call to free Tina Peters, a Colorado clerk convicted of election tampering.
  • Cuomo mocked Kennedy's self-styled image as a 'straight shooter' and criticized his reliance on pro-Trump media for favorable coverage.
  • Kennedy has not responded to Cuomo's on-air rebuke, which has sparked broader discussions about political accountability and partisanship.
