During a heated exchange with a man in New York City on Sunday, the CNN host claimed the name 'Fredo' was equivalent to the 'n-word.'

In the movie, based on a fictionalized Italian mob family, Fredo is the second son of crime boss Don Vito Corleone . Although he's more temperamental than his little brother Michael , who goes on to become the mafia don after Vito's oldest son Sonny is killed, Fredo still has the reputation of being the weakest of the Corleone kids.

He's inherently jealous of his both brothers and in a key scene in the first movie, Fredo does nothing to prevent his father from almost being fatally shot by opposing gangsters.Fredo's presumed weakness only continues to flourish when he collaborates with rival mobsters to orchestrate Michael's assassination. The ploy fails, and although Michel promises Fredo won't be harmed, his bodyguard kills his brother by the film's end.
