"CNN terminates Chris Cuomo 'effective immediately'
Chris Cuomo was suspended earlier this week pending further evaluation of new information that came to light about his involvement with his brother's defense," CNN said in a statement.
Transcripts from his interview with state investigators revealed CNN star admitting he would reach out to media sources to find out about new accusers who had yet to come forward publicly.
The documents, which we were not privy to before their public release, raise serious questions. When Chris admitted to us he had offered advice to his brother's staff, he broke our rules and we acknowledged that publicly. But we also appreciated the unique position he was in and understood his need to put family first and job second," the statement added.
"However, these documents point to a greater level of involvement in his brother's efforts than we previously knew. As a result, we have suspended Chris indefinitely, pending further evaluation," CNN added." --------------------------------------
CNN - the network that once suggested that a missing Malasian airliner was sucked into a black hole - is now so completely partisan (not to mention bat shit crazy) that is has rendered itself utterly unreliable, a fact reflected in the lowest ratings in the companies history.
The fact that they let Fredo ever bring his brother on the show was a fireable offense, much less him trying to snuff out negative reports about his criminal, incompetent, brother.

I'll pop the popcorn: "Report: Chris Cuomo preparing to sue CNN for at least $18 million to cover the rest of his four-year contract Fired CNN host Chris Cuomo is set to sue the network if it balks at paying him at least $18 million to cover what’s left on his contract, sources told The Post on Monday. Cuomo, 51, has hired lawyers and is preparing to file the lawsuit over the remainder of the four-year contract he signed last year — after a bitter back-and-forth about what the network knew of his secret efforts to aid his embattled brother, then-Gov. Andrew Cuomo, said sources familiar with the matter." -------------------------- Believe it or not, Fredo might have a chance at winning simply by arguing what many people have known for a long time - CNN is not a true news organization, thus his un-professional protection of his brother (and maybe even his attempts at hugging and kissing) is acceptable. That argument will be further buoyed by the near certainty that CNN knew all about his proclivities the entire time. No matter who loses, we win.
As a side note, how insane are the people at CNN to pay bottom of the ratings dweller $4,200,000 a year?

They've been letting it leak that Zucker knew EXACTLY what was going on basically the whole time, so whatever Cuomo was doing on CNN, he was doing it with the tacit approval of CNN brass. So, you're right, he has a great chance of burning CNN on the way out, and then CNN is now on the hook for the person Cuomo harassed (assuming only one?) and she can sue them as well.
Oh, one loves to see it. Truly a summer with a thousand Julys.
