Two separate explanations for the undercount have since emerged, with Cuomo aides either hiding the true extent of the policy\u2019s damage to avoid federal scrutiny or to clean up the governor\u2019s reputation ahead of publication of his leadership tome.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe book was published by Crown, a division of Penguin Random House, which rushed to get it into print last year,\u201d the NYT said Tuesday. \u201cThe publisher celebrated its acquisition in an announcement last summer, <a title href=\"https:\/\/www.publishersweekly.com\/pw\/by-topic\/industry-news\/book-deals\/article\/84122-crown-announces-andrew-cuomo-book.html\" target=\"_top\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">describing<\/a> how Mr. Cuomo, \u2018in his own voice,\u2019 would write about \u2018the decision-making that shaped his political policy.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"margins-h css-bwdy7f evys1bk0\">\u201cMr. Cuomo had begun working on the book by early last summer, as he received praise for his pandemic leadership and rode a wave of national popularity fueled by his daily news conferences,\u201d the outlet added.<\/p>\n<p class=\"margins-h css-bwdy7f evys1bk0\">\u201cThe decision to publish a triumphant account of the state\u2019s battle against coronavirus <a title href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/therecount\/status\/1315632205570486276?lang=en\" target=\"_top\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">was questioned by some<\/a> political observers at the time, especially considering the crushing death toll in New York and the second wave of the disease that was looming even as Mr. Cuomo did promotional events for the book,\u201d the NYT added.<\/p>\n<p>At the time, Cuomo was receiving unqualified accolades for his performance in the pandemic and he reportedly believed that he had found the key to effective pandemic management, even though the book hit shelves just as cases were spiking in New York for a second time, and New York was still boasting one of the highest COVID-19 death counts in the country, second only to its neighbor, New Jersey.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, Cuomo touted the book as a \u201cblueprint\u201d for states like Florida to follow.<\/p>\n<p>Cuomo is now facing a chorus of calls to resign or face impeachment, in part over his handling of the pandemic, but more recently, because of five sexual harassment allegations. Cuomo has flatly denied acting inappropriately around female staffers and has refused to resign, daring lawmakers to begin an impeachment process.<\/p>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
