New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s leadership has been unwavering and the most effective of any governors’ in the nation — just ask him. As a result, he’s getting another accolade:
Inbox: Gov. Andrew Cuomo will receive an international Emmy award, “in recognition of his leadership during the Covid-19 pandemic and his masterful use of television to inform and calm people around the world.”

Maybe Cuomo will even be able to get another self-congratulatory book out of this:

Wow.
Andrew Cuomo deserves to be on trial for the elderly people his nursing home order directly murdered. Instead, he's getting an Emmy. https://t.co/06wlXtP2pq

And the Emmy for botching the coronavirus response and killing granny in the nursing home goes to New York Democrat Governor Andrew Cuomo. https://t.co/0wwzDqkjHz

Cuomo is getting an Emmy.
Good God.
Just give him that Nobel peace prize already, and maybe a purple heart for braving the worst of the nursing home disaster

Andrew Cuomo gets an emmy award for making a mockery of a pandemic and lying about killing 1000s in his nursing homes.
30,000+ have died thanks to his actions.
Sickening. https://t.co/3KRQid6ZRs pic.twitter.com/wJyISrnhkE— Mayor Mike⚡️ (@MayorTarantino) November 20, 2020

I am beginning to think most of our society's "awards" aren't really offered in recognition of specific acts of excellence anymore. https://t.co/FcFsSYyY7T

Clearly not.
