It was a historic week for New York politics: Governor Andrew Cuomo announced his resignation a week after a report by State Attorney General Letitia James found he sexually harassed 11 women and created a toxic work environment. Casey Seiler, editor-in-chief of The Albany Times Union, joined Errol to analyze Cuomo’s fall from grace and discuss whether he’ll be impeached. He also talked about his newspaper turning into an investigative powerhouse and being responsible for breaking multiple stories about the alleged misconduct within the Cuomo administration.

Casey Seiler: The journalist who took on Team Cuomo

Two days before his newspaper ran a surprising editorial calling for New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo's resignation, Albany Times Union editor Casey Seiler sat down with host Adam Klasfeld for a lengthy interview identifying a through line of the governor's three-term tenure: an aversion to independent investigations. "You can call it a Shakespearean flaw because, as in so many Shakespeare characters, his virtues are so close to his faults, right?" Seiler noted. "In Cuomo’s case, it is control. When there is a flood, the governor wants to be there wading through the water. When there is a snowstorm, he wants to be helping drag your truck out of the snowy ditch, right? He wants his hands in everything." "The flip side of that, the flaw, is the pathological horror at any independent investigation that has anything to do with him," he added. In an article titled "The Andrew Cuomo Show Has Lost the Plot," New Republic reporter Alex Pareene contrasted "TV Cuomo" with "newspaper Cuomo," and the author argued that the nursing home and sexual harassment stories have introduced a nation previously familiar with the television character to the print subject. No news outlet has covered the latter subject more closely than Cuomo's hometown paper, the Times Union, which endorsed him three times for governor before calling upon him to resign this past weekend. In this episode, Seiler traces the trajectory of Cuomo's career, how the governor wriggled out of past scandals by pulling the levers of power—and what changed with the latest round of controversies.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

'The Cuomo Show' (Feat. Albany Times Union editor Casey Seiler)

Outrage over the deaths of Black people by police officers has spread since video emerged of the killing of George Floyd. Times Union Editor Casey Seiler reminds us in his column, Darkness Closer To Home, to save some outrage for the ongoing injustices in the Capital Region. Hudson Mohawk Magazine producer Elizabeth Press spoke to Casey Seiler about his column and specifically about the case of now-retired Cohoes police officer Sean McKown and this week's trial of former Rensselaer County District Attorney Joel Abelove.
