1. Bill Hammond:

   Cuomo does get kid-glove treatment from some in the media (especially when he does quick-hit appearances on national TV) but not from the Capitol press corps reporters who cover him on a daily basis. He and his P.R. staff are generally awful to deal with, so there is little love lost. If they dont ask about the nursing home issue more often, its probably because they know they wont get straight answers and they have dozens of other issues to cover. They might be pushing behind the scenes, and many reporters have filed FOIL requests similar to mine.

2. Chuck Grassley:

   They see a story of kid glove treatment for one side and bare-knuckle tactics for the other.
