‘A propagandist’: NYU trustee Maria Bartiromo peddles pro-Trump lies on Fox shows
Once a journalism student at NYU, Maria Bartiromo has recently turned to amplifying baseless right-wing claims about the 2020 election and Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol — all while serving as a voting member of NYU’s Board of Trustees.

OPINION: Post-Trump, Republicans don’t stand for anything

The Reprisal of Bush V. Gore Threatens Our Elections

Holding Leaders More Accountable in Crisis, Not Less
Though some of his actions have been integral to dealing with the coronavirus crisis and should be a good example for other states to follow, many of Governor Cuomo’s policies in both the past and the present have been harmful to the state’s efforts.
