Cuomo’s deputy secretary for public safety, Liz Glazer, has become the latest high-level departure from an administration concerned about the governor’s increasingly halting performance, insiders said.
The Post disclosed last week that several high-level departures were expected in the coming months and that two had already occurred.
After Cuomo denied the exclusive report, The Post planned a followup today about Glazer’s departure — but made the mistake of giving Cuomo’s increasingly notorious spokesman, Josh Vlasto, an opportunity to respond. Within an hour, Cuomo’s office leaked the exclusive to the Albany Times-Union.
Vlasto, considered untrustworthy by many reporters, recently claimed that another Post exclusive — that Cuomo told business leaders that he feared the Legislature’s reaction if he moved ahead with fracking — was “totally false.” But Vlasto was then directly contradicted by the Business Council of New York State’s president, Heather Briccetti, and others, who said they were there when the governor said it.
Hey, Fred, I could have told you Vlasto is full of crap.
Most p.r. people are.
So are most journalists.
But it takes special person to be able to sling Cuomo's lies.
