After receiving his law degree from Fordham University in 1995, Cuomo went on to a lucrative career as a Wall Street lawyer, while becoming one of the most sought-after bachelors in New York. In 1997, People magazine included him on its "Most Beautiful People" list. W magazine then named him "New York's most eligible bachelor" after John F. Kennedy Jr. (who later advised Cuomo, "Don't worry, they'll always consider you to be the poor man's me, anyway." )
Move to Journalism
Inside the family, Cuomo's new choice of profession was greeted with some skepticism. To his father, journalism was a lesser form of public service. "My pop didn't want me to go into journalism," Cuomo recalled. "He used to say, 'Why do you just cover these things? Why don't you go out and do them?'" His brother Andrew was also skeptical, counseling his brother, "You got to decide what's more important: your personal celebrity or what you're able to do for other people."
Fredo clearly has some inferiority issues about daddy and his older brother. The JFK Jr. quote made me laugh.

From the clip, to Cuomo while he is dropping f-bombs and threatening to throw people down steps-
“You’re a much more reasonable in person than you are on tv”.
Right to Cuomo’s face, hahaha!
Predictably, CNN “stands by” Cuomo in the incident. He will be forever known as Fredo. Forever

Where's the photoshop of Cuomo with the Fredo haircut?

You Tube has taken down the video... Can still be seen on mediaite:
CNN’s Chris Cuomo Filmed Erupting at Heckler Who Called Him ‘Fredo’: ‘I’ll F*cking Ruin Your Sh*t’
"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown

What an asshat POS Cuomo is. The guy should have punched his pussy ass out! Any credible news organization would fire his whiny ass after a demonstration like this. He'll probably get a raise from CNN.

The guy Fredo was yelling at stayed very cool.
I think he was waiting for Fredo to throw a punch, but the guy was not going to hit first.
Cuomo: "stand up like a man"
Guy: "I'm standing up"
takes his glasses off
Fredo: "You're going to have a fking problem"
Guy: "Why? What are you going to do about it"
Fredo: "I'll throw you down the stairs"
Guy: "Please do"

Maybe he's just trying to raise his and CNN's ratings. They sure need a boost and this has created more buzz than they've had in years.
