Michael Cohen recorded Chris Cuomo over the phone. Some of the recordings have now ended up at Fox News at the Tucker Carlson show. Cohen says he never gave the recordings to Fox News but POTUS and friends had them so now they are out. I'm copying a lot of text from the Daily Mail which transcribed the audio that Tucker played over the air while showing footage of Cuomo working out.
'I'm always careful when I talk to media,' Cuomo says on the recording, which was released by Fox News host Tucker Carlson on Tuesday night, before launching into a tirade.
'Do you know how many f***ing phone calls I've gotten from ABC, who say that reporters are calling and lying about things they heard about me, to try and get stories about me when I was at ABC,' Cuomo said, referencing his prior stint as chief law and justice correspondent at ABC News.
'Guys calling and saying "I heard he was the Charlie Rose of ABC, used to invite women to his hotel room in a bath robe,"' the newsman goes on. 'Do I look like the kinda f***ing guy who's gotta do that?'
'Sure, why not,' Cohen replies, which Cuomo appears to ignore.
The CNN host continues: 'Like, "I already have a good source who says he forced a woman to have sex, I just want to know if you've heard anything like that?" There is no woman! There is none of this!'
'So here's the problem,' Cohen replies, upon which Cuomo immediately cuts him off to continue his rant.
Cuomo went on: 'Women who do work there, saying "Oh yeah you known, some of these men" and naming me with other guys, "you know he bumped into me once in the elevator, and he put his hand on my shoulder and he made me really uncomfortable." I mean what the f***?'
'It's a problem,' says Cohen, to which Cuomo blasts back: 'I always told you, the media is not your friend.'
