It's a word used in the Godfather and not even anywhere close to the N-word.

Dunno much about New York politics but you could say Michael Corleone was a lowlife much more than Fredo too lol

Spoilers for The Godfather series

He's a character in the series and it can have one of two meanings:

1. As mentioned before, the screwup, black sheep of the family. The worthless one.

2. More venomous is using it as a traitor to one's family. Seeing as Fredo tried to have his brother killed.


It is in no way, shape, or form a racially charged slur for Italian people. There are derogatory given names used for Italian descendants (notably the name that starts with a G) but Fredo would be a specific reference to a literary/film character.

I'm of the same generation of Italian as Chris would be and although I don't really like his analogy comparing it to the n word, I do love how the clear NY Italian IMMEDIATELY comes out of him as he gets pissed off, as I've seen it and had it happen before lol.

Still though, that guy was such a little bitch to not only immediately backtrack but try to pretend like he thought it was his name. Like come on dude, at least stand by your insult instead if bitching out once some steps up to you.

Also this somehow makes me like Chris more. CNN and he should stand by his conviction and not do a damn thing about it

Sean Hannity, of all people, is defending Cuomo here. Lmao broken clock and all that stuff

https://twitter.com/seanhannity/status/1161100636995407872?s=19

I say good for @ChrisCuomo

Hes out with his 9 year old daughter, and his wife, and this guy is being a jackass in front of his family.

Imho Chris Cuomo has zero to apologize for. He deserves the apology.

On one hand, you have the sniveling, weasel of a brother in Fredo.

On the other hand, you have one of the most important figures in jazz history who's influence change the landscape of the genre.

Unless.....you think a incredibly talented, real black man is on the same level as a weak, fictional white man? >_>

This is the moron that said it was illegal to read the Clinton leaks. Him being 50 and acting like some young dude from Bensonhurst or the Jersey Shore is rather embarrassing.

This is the brother of the shithead governor Andrew Cuomo, who continues to fuck over New Yorkers.

Lol @ anyone defending this clown.

people in America don't differentiate between the two. I always identify ethnically and don't hop onto the white-train, but that's cause I know my ethnicity. most white Americans don't

He's obviously as intelligent as Fredo.

Cuomo "I'M SMAHT! Not like everybody says...like dumb! I'm smaht and I want respect!"

Maybe his dad passed him over for his little brother for something in his childhood.

As a person who grew up in an Italian family on both sides, the comparison of Fredo to the N word is false. It's not even close. Not even remotely close. Not even on the same planet.

Fredo is the black-sheep of the family. It's sort of evolved to the point where it means the goofball of the family.

Comparing this to a word used during slavery to indicate ownership ...is a BIG TIME YIKES FROM ME. CNN should fire him, but they won't.
