CNN’s propaganda director and Trump-hating President Jeff Zucker has resigned in shame from the failing network.
Brian Stelter, who struggles with the truth, and the angry Jim Acosta were tasked with delivering the shocking news.
Stelter is once again breaking the news about his boss’s resignation.
NYT’s reports – In a memo to colleagues that was obtained by The New York Times, Mr. Zucker wrote that his relationship came up during a network investigation into the conduct of Chris Cuomo, the CNN anchor who was fired in December over his involvement in the political affairs of his brother, former Governor Andrew M. Cuomo of New York.
“As part of the investigation into Chris Cuomo’s tenure at CNN, I was asked about a consensual relationship with my closest colleague, someone I have worked with for more than 20 years,” Mr. Zucker wrote. “I acknowledged the relationship evolved in recent years. I was required to disclose it when it began, but I didn’t. I was wrong.”
CNN has had a very rough six months. In addition to the firing of the former CNN host Chris Cuomo over his alleged inappropriate sexual misconduct, two CNN producers were caught in alleged acts of pedophilia, one of the accused pedophiles was Chris Cuomo’s producer.
CNN fired host Chris Cuomo in early December, citing his involvement in defending his brother Democrat Governor Andrew Cuomo’s sex scandal and the most recent sexual harassment claim against him.
A statement from a CNN spokesperson explained the flailing cable “news” network’s decision: “Based on the report we received regarding Chris’s conduct with his brother’s defense, we had cause to terminate. When new allegations came to us this week, we took them seriously and saw no reason to delay taking immediate action.”
The Daily Mail reports that former CNN anchor Chris Cuomo is preparing to sue his former employer for $18 million left on his contract, claiming that CNN President Jeff Zucker knew about his involvement in his brother’s sex pest probe.
Cuomo says CNN President Jeff Zucker knew about the cooperation, which the network called ‘patently false.’
According to the New York Post, he has now hired lawyers and is preparing to file a suit against CNN if it does not honor the remainder of the four-year contract he signed last year, under which he receives $6 million a year.
