WHAM in Rochester, NY canceled an interview with NY Governor Andrew Cuomo after the Gov's staff tried to lay down some ground rules.

It appears that the Gov. was more than happy to discuss his new book, but no anything of you know, substance. 

Five minutes before the scheduled 4 p.m. interview, a Cuomo campaign aide relayed the message that only questions about the memoir, “All Things Possible,” would be permitted.

“We said, ‘No. That’s unacceptable. We have to ask relevant questions beyond the book,’ ” said WHAM news director Matt Malyn.

The interview was canceled.

Props to the station for doing the right thing.
