CNN’s Chris Cuomo has grilled Congressional candidate Cenk Uygur of the The Young Turks over his record of Armenian Genocide denial and the naming of his show after The Young Turks, racist mass murderers of millions of Armenians, Greeks, Assyrians, Chaldeans and other Christians.
On Nov. 14, Uygur officially announced his candidacy for the vacant congressional seat in California’s 25th district, which encompasses parts of northern Los Angeles County.
Uygur, who has never before ran for elected office, is the founder of The Young Turks, an online outlet with over 4.5 million subscribers on YouTube.
As a columnist for The Daily Pennsylvanian in the 1990s, Uygur penned divisive articles on subjects such as his disdain for “radical feminism” and his belief that the Armenian Genocide never occurred.
