CNN fawns over Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in extended softball interview: 'Power can have red lips'
CNN's Dana Bash to Ocasio-Cortez: 'You are uncompromising in your vision, in your goals for what you want to do'

CNN ran a gushing hour-long interview of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., Monday full of softball questions that seemingly sought to highlight the far-left Squad member as a victim and hero standing against the political establishment.
"While celebrities sometimes use their stardom to go into politics, she reached fame as a politician. The 31-year-old is outspoken, uncompromising and not just navigating the political world, but trying to change it," CNN anchor Dana Bash said as she introduced Ocasio-Cortez, and praised her huge social media following.
The show ran in place of CNN host Chris Cuomo's weeknight program "Cuomo Prime Time." The anchor is on a pre-planned vacation, according to the network, as he faces call for discipline and even his firing over his private advice to his brother, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, D., on combating sexual harassment allegations.
