17 February 2021: Cuomo's Pandemic Leadership Book Proclaims Importance of Transparency

Andrew Cuomo, Accused of Nursing Homes COVID Cover-Up, Extolled His Transparency in Book

This article exposes Governor Cuomo's hypocrisy, as found in his book extolling his leadership during the coronavirus pandemic. In his book, he proclaimed the value of transparency in sharing information with other officials and the public. Here's an excerpt from the book, which was published in October 2020:

"The main challenge for me was to communicate this data to the public in a way that would establish my credibility for providing timely information with transparency while also instilling confidence."

As has since been confirmed, Governor Cuomo and his administration had been stonewalling data requests from elected officials and the media for the state's public data on the COVID-19 deaths of nursing home residents for months by the time of the book's publication.
