Chris Cuomo, CNN News anchor and brother of New York Governor Andrew Cuomo , was criticized on Twitter this weekend after he joked that he's "black on the inside" while talking to journalist and CNN colleague Don Lemon. The comment came after he was singing the theme song to Good Times , a television show popular in the 1970s about a black family living in Chicago. Laughing, Lemon asked Chris Cuomo how he knew the words to the song, to which Christ Cuomo responded, "You know, I'm black on the inside." The comment sparked backlash on Twitter after USA Today sports reporter Mike Freeman pointed to the statement alongside a perplexed image of Tom from the cartoon Tom and Jerry on Friday. "It's fucking offensive," tweeted Sister2Sister Magazine Managing Editor Aisha K. Staggers on Saturday, responding to another commenter to Freeman's post.

close Video Minneapolis braces for more potential unrest before Derek Chauvin trial Former police officer's trial in George Floyd death is days away. As the Derek Chauvin trial is set to begin with jury selection on Monday, some Minneapolis business owners are cautiously bracing for potentially another round of unrest and mayhem after recently getting back on their feet from the criminal rioting last June that resulted in an estimated $500 million in damage in Minneapolis alone. "The word I use is opportunist," business manager Jay Chau told Fox News. "They just found opportunity and they just took what they want." Chau is a manager of a family-owned hair salon across the street from Minneapolis’ fifth police precinct. The salon was looted and flooded during the George Floyd riots and over the course of several months was replaced with all new materials. It just reopened in recent weeks. "A lot of the suffering were minority business owners … [Read more...] about Derek Chauvin trial: Minneapolis businesses prepare for new round of potential riots

CHICAGO: Harley-Davidson Inc has decided the best way to get younger customers to buy a new motorcycle is to sell them a used one first. The Milwaukee-based company plans to roll out a certified pre-owned bike program, known as H-D Certified, adapting a strategy carmakers have been following for years to position well-tended used vehicles as a substitute for low-margin, "entry-level" new models. Harley 's embrace of used bikes is part of a new five-year turnaround strategy under Chief Executive Jochen Zeitz, and is the latest effort to expand the brand's appeal beyond middle-aged and affluent riders. The 118-year-old American brand has been steadily losing U.S. market share amid declining retail sales for six years. But the demand for used Harleys, which are less expensive, has remained strong. Some dealers told Reuters that pre-owned bikes last year outsold new ones by three-to-one. Melissa Walters, owner of a Harley dealership in Fresno, California, says the … [Read more...] about Harley borrows Detroit’s used-car playbook to pursue younger riders
