New York Governor Andrew Cuomo was asked by a bold reporter about allegations that he “profited off the backs of dead New Yorkers” during a press conference on Thursday.
Naturally, Cuomo was not too pleased with the question.
“We know now.. the book deal was worth more than $5 million and the allegations out there that you made that money on the backs of dead people?” the reporter asked.

“That’s stupid… Next question.” Cuomo snapped.
