In the video, viewers see the Democratic Governor telling the reporter from News Channel 9, “I want to see you eat the whole sausage.” During the video, the camera catches the expressions of the reporter Beth Cefalu as well as Cuomo’s own daughter who sits quietly during the awkward encounter.
The video which is now making viral rounds was shared by a fellow journalist by the name of Matt Binder.
In response to the governor’s abrupt message, Beth exclaims, “I don’t know if I should eat the whole sausage in front of you, but I’m definitely going to eat it,” she responds. Today, Beth works as a reporter as well as a news anchor for News 12 Westchester.
Soon, Cuomo invites Cefalu to sit at his table, who even snapped a selfie with him while holding her plate. But the cringe-worthy exchange doesn’t end there. Cuomo continues the bizarre conversation with, “There is too much sausage in that picture,” which causes other fellow diners nearby to begin laughing.
In light of the governor’s recent sexual harassment allegations, internet users were quick to slam Cuomo for his rather ‘creepy’ as well as ‘cringy’ behavior.
