Chris Cuomo FIRED by CNN

I don’t know her.

I'm Anderson, giggling.

I bet his severance package is bigger than his actual package.

I spoke to Sen. Susan Collins about this and she’s concerned.

I wonder what the new information is?

What is this sad?

R6 why? Because he’s a hot piece of ass.

A "respected law firm" conducted the review?

Translation: they found something legally actionable we'll never hear about.

Now do Fox News.

As my partner (who is a TV news industry vet) opined: all they needed to do was read the transcript. What Cuomo did was unacceptable for a journalist.

Now he can go back to his basement.

He deserved it. Unethical behavior.

Now do Fox News.

Can we only have one thread about this?

Here's the link to the first thread

I’d like to console him. If he’d like some anonymous attention he should go to the glory hole and I’ll swing by to make it all better (for a few seconds).

I wanna see him naked.

Who's going to show love to D now?

[quote]Because he’s a hot piece of ass.

He's a 5'2" hot piece of ass

Bye, Bye Fredo. You and greaseball brother got the Christmas present you deserve. I feel sorry for their mother, Matilda.

Ha ha!

r18 = DJT

Will the docs leak??

I honestly don't understand how they can fire him before an investigation is complete.

Even NY state didn't fire/impeach Cuomo, before the end of the investigation.

Granted, he resigned. But they didn't fire him.

So why in the fuck is CNN firing him? Fucking cowards.

I hope he sues them for millions. And then MSNBC picks him up.

That would be so sweet.

Whatever happened to due process?

I guess the court of public opinion is the only one that matters nowdays.

Bye bye! He's officially off the Hamptons list.

Congrats CNN, for doing the bidding of FOX News.

They're absolutely loving this.

R24 = Matilda Cuomo

He will have to use his other assets to make a buck ;)

Too bad Only Fans is defunct ;)

Based on what the AG’s office released, there was no need for further investigation. He did something wildly unethical.

His wife must be on her second bottle of After Shock at the thought of him home all the time, enraged.

He might as well just move in with Matt Lauer and Charlie Rose. They can call it the Manhattan/East Hampton Home for Wayward News Anchors.

NO! NO! A thousand times no!

Weird that it was MSNBC that first reported Cuomo's suspension and this guy from CNN who's been reporting non stop on it.

Everyone keeps ragging on Fox, but they did fire O’Reilly (their highest rated host) for sexual harassment accusations. They also fired Guilfoyle for being a sex pest.

[quote] Based on what the AG’s office released, there was no need for further investigation. He did something wildly unethical.

That's what they said about Andrew Cuomo too.

Yet they couldn't fire him.

Fucking bullshit.

Republicans didn't even have to do anything on this take down.

Democrats did all the dirty work for them, and took down another Democratic Loyalist.

Democrats are the dumbest, most disloyal motherfuckers on the planet. Goddamned idiots.

Did management find him irritating?

"Sex pest" is my new favorite description. Thanks R32.

For all the nitwits saying the investigation has to be completed, Zucker is not an idiot. He won't fire one of the most profitable anchors at CNN. He knows something he hasn't released, or that hasn't been released yet. This being said, whatever it was found out about Cuomo, it would've been more hurtful to the network than keeping him suspended until the hurricane passed. No matter how much someone might've offered to have him fired, I doubt it was more than what Cuomo made the network earn. It's over. Get over it or go to his Hamptons house to mourn with him under the covers.

Stelter is such a little weasle shit. Two days ago he was speculating Cuomo could be back after Christmas.

He's one of those fat little he did it, teacher, he did it types.

[quote] go to his Hamptons house to mourn with him under the covers.

R36 Gladly. Please send me his address. 😈😉

(Also, I agree 100% with the rest of your post.)

I'd like to know what "continual headaches" Cuomo was causing for management?

I’m waiting for all the dirt to come spilling out.

You still can't fire Chris without actual EVIDENCE of wrong-doing.

Chris has a contract. And CNN violated that contract, by terminating him.

Chris will win tens of millions of dollars in court.

And CNN can go fuck itself. I'll never watch that shit right-wing network again.

MARY!

I'm still trying to square if they did this on a Saturday to spare him the news cycle or whether it was so bad this New York law firm said get rid of him now.

I cannot stand the guy - I am delighted the network is free of this egotistical asshole - but I have a hard time imagining he did anything criminal. He probably just went way too far over the line of professional standards. It may be he went too far in something pertaining to one of the women making the accusations? Again, nothing criminal or illegal, but so appearing badly they just cut their losses. Journalism is a petty, nasty business with a huge competitive streak and tons of rivalries. If Cuomo made them all look bad in the process of blowing up his own reputation, that's enough to sink the ship.

But it sure went down fast.

R41 - Chris Cuomo.

[quote]You still can't fire Chris without actual EVIDENCE of wrong-doing.

They obviously have EVIDENCE.

R41's knowledge of contract law is breathtaking.

R41 thinks CNN is right-wing. I-

Yes, R41, I'm sure CNN didn't consult their own lawyers and decided to fire him for no reason.

R41's RAGE is without BOUNDARIES!

R41 = Cuomo's PR team or Andrew.

Chris Cuomo has fanilows?

I did not know that.

[quote] You still can't fire Chris without actual EVIDENCE of wrong-doing.

R41, In addition to what's already been released by the NY AG's office, CNN's statement suggests additional information about Chris' conduct. The evidence is mounting.

[quote] Chris has a contract. And CNN violated that contract, by terminating him.

R41, Funny thing about contracts, they tend to stipulate all sorts of terms that BOTH parties to said contracts are expected to abide. You can bet that Chris' had all sorts of the usual boilerplate terms about behavior, morals, and so forth that are commonplace for those offered to national broadcasting personalities. We'll see before long if Chris files any sort of wrongful termination action. If he doesn't, given his ego and his own law background it'll be because he knows they caught him in violation of his contract.

But boy, you sure come on strong in your assertions. How is that you, a mere keyboard commando DL poster, knows so much more about contract law than, say, a multi-billion dollar global news enterprise? 🙄

CNN is going to cover the story in the next hour.

Juicy!

Will his brother pay him off?

Holy Mary... the lasagna or the cacciatore? Oh, la famiglia! O, mi bambino! Oh, he looks hungry! Oh, he looks sad! Bastardi! Li prenderemo prima di passare. Non è finita!

I believe R41 is Chris Cuomo himself!!

His show on FOX in 5...4...3.. 2....

Don Lemon - bring me the ax!

That would be delicious, R58!

translation: his ratings are down, family has no power anymore, and there is a creeper brother.

Why in the world would he use his sources to dig up dirt on the victims? And he thought no one would find out? Damn, Trump was right. He is dumb.

On CNN NOW.

Randy Rainbow and his fellow DL Cuomosexuals like the Gay Playlist Troll must be devastated upon hearing this news.

*Gap Playlist Troll

I sure wish he’d force fuck my mouth n ass

Michael Smerconish to fill in this week.

Which POC du Jour will get his spot?

Wonder what that “additional information that will continue to be investigated” is??

What a mess. I feel slightly sorry for both Cuomos. But I did stop watching CN a after the 2016 election, and I felt Chris Cuomo had an irritating way of dialing up conflict and asking patently loaded questions. It felt cheap, like a tabloid. Seeing his evening program only rarely (usually on the road on a hotel television set), I did feel like Cuomo did a lot of mansplaining and puffy oration at the close of his show (“ok here’s the thing…”). I also thought his transition between hosts was flirty and a little yucky (“I love you, brother..”). He will probably fall upward, but could use a reshaping of his media persona. Let’s dude-bro from around the way and maybe more smarts and sincerity would help. He is a good looking fellow, and fit. Those are veneers, right? And a toupee?

Shit, that’s meant to spell “less dude-bro”

The repigs rejoice

Meghan McCain is furiously flicking her bean at this news.

Chris Cuomo ‘s Twitter Post

This is not how I want my time at CNN to end but I have already told you why and how I helped my brother. So let me now say as disappointing as this is, I could not be more proud of the team at Cuomo Prime Time and the work we did as CNN's #1 show in the most competitive time slot. I owe them all and will miss that group of special people who did really important work.

"Now he can go back to his basement."

I'd follow him down.

Fool.

Many twitter folks are actually praising him for being such a dedicated family man. Fool.

Anyone else think Trump has operatives everywhere, doing his bidding? That he sits down there at Maga-Lardo and checks people off his hit list, thinking if he gets them out of the way it's a clear shot back to the White House?

A NOVEL?? My sister wrote a NOVEL??!!!!

[quote] Everyone keeps ragging on Fox, but they did fire O’Reilly (their highest rated host) for sexual harassment accusations. They also fired Guilfoyle for being a sex pest.

Fox renewed its contract with O'Reilly, with knowledge that he had settled a sexual harassment suit (personally) with Lis Wiehl. The settlement amount was $32 million. Not sure if Fox knew the amount, but that's nothing to sneeze at. Sounds like more than a nuisance payoff.

[quote] I cannot stand the guy - I am delighted the network is free of this egotistical asshole - but I have a hard time imagining he did anything criminal.

It's a matter of journalism ethics and standards, too. You have access to information about these women who are accusing a family member of sexual harassment. You exploit CNN sources and feed that info to Andrew's team, a team gathered to fight and neutralize these claims.

A statement from CNN

r2 Did Anderson not get on with Chris? I thought they were all quite matey with each other at CNN?

He be the best friends with benefits ever.

*He’d

R84 The few times CC attempted handoff banter with AC, his (AC’s) contempt and distaste was palpable.

[quote]I did feel like Cuomo did a lot of mansplaining and puffy oration at the close of his show (“ok here’s the thing…”). I also thought his transition between hosts was flirty and a little yucky (“I love you, brother..”).

Chris Cuomo is a New Yorker, and New Yorkers never understand that what goes over well on Long Island and in New Jersey doesn't go over so well in the rest of the country.

Meanwhile, Trump is also a New Yorker and my guess is that of all the CNN anchors, Chris Cuomo is the one he disliked the least. Trump can relate to guido blowhards who act like walking talking tabloids. So I think R79 is way off the mark.

r87 gosh thanks.I hadnt realised that. Do Anderson and Don Lemon get on ok?

I still want him to sit on my face.

Well, R90, he's sure got the time for that now.

I liked Chris' show much of the time. It depended on the topics of the day and who were the guests.

Who will now say "I love you" to me?

I don't love Michael Smerconish.

Don's about to find out what life is like without Heather.

No Worries ---CNN still have alleged groper Don Lemon and Whore Bottom Anderson Cooper..I wouldn't be surprised if Anderson gets his whore eskimo brother a job replacing Cuomo. Somewhere Kelly Ripa is nagging AC for a primetime gig...

I bet Don jerks off thinking about getting topped by CC.

Hurricane season will no longer be the same without Anderson Cooper saying that Chris Cuomo is getting pounded in Florida.

Just for once, JUST ONCE, I wish Chris could show his hard dick all over the internet

Let's get after it!

On second thought...let's not -

What are the three way texts between Chris, Anderson, and Don saying right now?

[quote]You still can't fire Chris without actual EVIDENCE of wrong-doing.

They definitely had something even if they haven't revealed it yet.

As they said in their statement, they found out something additional, that left them no choice.

I'm available.

We're available.

Cuomo ‘Livid’ After Shock Firing by CNN

[quote]You still can't fire Chris without actual EVIDENCE of wrong-doing.

CNN can do whatever the fuck they want to do, you idiot.

Are some of your SO STUPID that you don't understand that Cuomo's firing is not a legal trial? Do you not understand that "evidence" is not needed? Have any of you ever had a JOB?

I’m sure he’s livid.

R106, the posters here arguing that CNN can't fire Cuomo are just as dumb as the anti-vaxxers claiming they can't be fired for not taking the vaccine.

Diamond & Silk to replace him.

He’s so hot

LOL - did it ever occur to you guys defending him that they didn't need to conclude the investigation because they discovered something so damning quickly that it was all they needed?

Or, even more interestingly, they discovered something so criminal that they chose to fire him without continuing to investigate for HIS benefit (or that or Andrew?).

By firing him without finishing, they don't need to finish the investigation which may actually be to his benefit...

I wonder if he saved his money.

I’m still unsure of what exactly he did wrong

[Quote] LOL - did it ever occur to you guys defending him that they didn't need to conclude the investigation because they discovered something so damning quickly that it was all they needed?

They fired him because of public relations.

Sounds like they had been looking for a reason to get rid of him for a while.

I would like to know what the other questionable acts Chris also committed. Based upon the verbiage of CNN the investigation team might have unearthed other no no’s.

Bye dickhead! A year and a half ago the big heroes on this board were Andrew and Chris Cuomo and Michael Avenatti. Hilarious to see where this trio are now .

The only ones cheering Cuomo's firing are right-wing Republicans and Feminazis #metoo CUNTS.

Otherwise, real Democrats should not be seeing this as a good thing.

The more Democratic-leaning journalists they get rid of, the happier the MAGATS and Deplorable types will be.

R118 ok, sure, whatever you say. You have no idea what you are even talking about or who is Republican versus Democrats. We can all be happy the worm is gone and remain democrats.

^Agree. I wish we had a counter button for wit & wisdom. Something like simple and stupid?

Now do Hannity, Carlson and all the Trump enablers at FOX.

While what Cuomo did was unethical, what FOX did was treasonous.

Victor Newman says shut the hell up, punk!

R67 - “ Michael Smerconish to fill in this week.”

Thanks for the heads up R67. Watching the preachy, douche-bro-frat-boy, Cuomo is unnerving enough, let alone the equally insufferable (but in a different way,) just a- Schmearconish.

Uh, no..

Did he do unethical things - as in journalistically unethical? Or was it breaking company policy? Well, whatever. It's nice to be loyal and supportive of family, even it one pay the price. I think Cuomo sucks as a journalist. I liked him a little bit as an entertaining pundit and DILF.

Pity Anthony Scaramucci doesn't want a job like this. I'd watch him occasionally for a year or two.

R116, I did notice this paragraph in the Daily Beast article posted at R104:

[quote]It was not immediately clear what new information prompted the decision. But The New York Times reports that CNN was made aware earlier this week of a sexual misconduct allegation against Chris Cuomo that was said to be “unrelated to the Gov. Andrew Cuomo matter.” The allegation reportedly came from a former junior colleague at a different network.

Perhaps this is what did it?

To R3, Massive settlement does not cover what kind of settlement it is going to be!! He was cooperating with the "higher ups at CNN" They knew he was consulting with his brother, the Governor! He told them; the AG is full of shit!! She did "nothing about dtrump". I know too many people who know the Cuomo brothers! CNN knew about them...Liar, liar pants on fire!1

Nowadays there are probably sexual misconduct charges against every successful straight male in media and entertainment.

R24 and so is the Donald. With the Cuomo named tarnished, Kathy Griffith getting cancer, Stormy Daniels' mouthpiece Avennati disbarred and jailed and Biden's low approval ratings . . .

He’s going to hit the gym even harder to prove himself.

I predict shirtless pics of increasing jerky-like veininess appearing in quick succession.

To DL. Chris Cuomo was banging more bitches at CNN than the Governor was in Albany. Alot of women disliked him, however. Chris never lied to CNN about his involvement with his brother.

CNN is obviously making a play for Fox viewers with this. Cuomo had a great show, who cares what did concerning his bother. I'm done with CNN!

Why were his ratings so low?

Interesting timing, because isn't Zucker leaving CNN effective the end of this year? I think CNN really wants -- needs, really -- to pull back a little bit more towards earth and reality in its "news" casting and coverage. If FOX isn't doing that coming in from the other direction, at least a "new" CNN could come in from the left and be the first to become actually, truly more neutral, fair and balanced. I think with the likes of Cuomo, they couldn't have ever started doing that come 2022.

[quote] CNN was made aware earlier this week of a sexual misconduct allegation

This is what I fucking hate about what has happened to America.

Fucking #metoo #timesup and all these other cunting slogans have made men a fucking target for any Karen, Debbie, or Susie who has a vendetta against a man.

And instead of doing the responsible thing, corporations and politicians just accept these ALLEGATIONS as fact.

They don't wait for an investigation to be concluded. They don't wait for all the facts to come out. They don't do their due diligence.

They just hear the accusations and allegations, and then say "GUILTY."

Fuck this shit. I will never take #metoo seriously, nor will I ever believe these lying women. It has proven to be a complete and total farce.

And this is a direct result of the irresponsibility of the powers-that-be, turning these men into victims.

He has always been a babe and will likely land on his feet.

Shame on every despicable person on DL who supported him.

FUCK CNN!

R133 Maybe if he had better ratings, they wouldn't be getting rid of him

The only thing that makes me happy about this is it’ll finally take his bitch social climbing wife down a peg or 10. Between her “socialite” background, marrying into a famous family, and helming vanity project after vanity project of failed magazines, she always thought she was the shit. So much for that.

I'm seriously thinking some of his PR team is on his thread. Normal people can't be that butthurt that their favorite anchor got fired. He is guilty, there's evidence, and he got caught red-handed. Pointing this out is not a "right-wing" move, you dumb cunts. Just like GOP, Democrats can also be crooks.

MSNBC would be the perfect place for Cuomo. Since they have no qualms about employing black bigots, an unethical sex pest should fit right in.

R142 Didn't they fire Matt Lauer for sexual misconduct?

how much was he making a year?

Now the two jobless bros can down their sorrows together.

R143 NBC fired Lauer.

Chris can piece his nips.

Tossing R146 an 'r'.

R145 It's the same network, genius. Just a different branch.

What types of people even watched him?

Nice piece of ass but a vile cunt

R113 he sank in the ratings. Ever see the movie Network?

[quote]Everyone keeps ragging on Fox, but they did fire O’Reilly (their highest rated host) for sexual harassment accusations. They also fired Guilfoyle for being a sex pest.

The big difference is that they did things that were illegal, lawsuits costing millions of dollars. Cuomo is only being accused of breaking "ethical standards". Show me where Faux News ever fired their top money maker just on breaking journalistic ethics.

Guilfoyles was a nobody, so being sex pest was not that big of a deal but still probably violated HR rules about sexual harassment.

R148 Same parent company, two different subsidiaries. Which is completely irrelevant to the fact that there's nothing to stop MSNBC hiring Cuomo.

R70: I also thought his transition between hosts was flirty and a little yucky (“I love you, brother..”).

OMG, that was SO phony and just came off as patronizing to the extreme.

[quote] He is guilty, there's evidence, and he got caught red-handed.

Link, please.

You lying sack of shit right-wing CUNTFACE!!!!

You and those cunts who took him down (and that includes CNN CUNTS) have absolutely no proof. Just accusations.

But by all means, feel free to post some actual proof of some sort of wrong doing.

Oh yeah, and good luck with that.

You dumb fucking twat cunts can't even tell us what he did wrong in the first place.

Exactly R141. And R132 is the perfect example. It's almost laughable.

The Cuomo brothers are corrupt. Stop having blind allegiance to anything left and screeching at anyone who suggests otherwise. Drain the fucking swamp.

Shut up Chris/R155.

[quote] The Cuomo brothers are corrupt. Stop having blind allegiance to anything left and screeching at anyone who suggests otherwise. Drain the fucking swamp.

In your three sentences, you posted two right-wing slogans.

And you have the fucking nerve to talk about "blind allegiance."

STFU asshole.

[quote]Drain the fucking swamp.

Just don't drain the fucking pasta!

Read the fucking TITLE of the piece of shit link you posted from the New York Post (of all places), you idiotic CUNT at R158:

[quote] Sexual misconduct allegation leveled against fired CNN anchor Chris Cuomo

There's the word ALLEGATION. In the motherfucking title. ALLEGATION.

Do you know what ALLEGATION means?

Here, let me tell you:

[quote] al·le·ga·tion /ˌaləˈɡāSH(ə)n/ noun

[quote] a claim or assertion that someone has done something illegal or wrong, typically one made without proof

Did you catch that last part? TYPICALLY MADE WITHOUT PROOF.

Once again, until you can provide some actual EVIDENCE, kindly SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!!

You stupid fucking cunt.

[quote] Just don't drain the fucking pasta!

That made me laugh

Enough of this arguing about worthless corrupt entitled wealthy people! I'll go heat up the lasagna

R161 needs a prozac the size of a BASKETBALL. Sheesh...get a grip.

[quote]Just don't drain the fucking pasta!

You idiot, you cant even get the joke right. It's don't RINSE the pasta.

You have to drain pasta to get it out of the water fool. What a lot of idiots who dont know how to cook do is wash or rinse the pasta after its cooked to get the starch off. But that's bad because the sauce wont stick to it then, slides right off in a watery mess. You want the starch.

Don't tell me he's also a sex pest!!

R153 You know both MSNBC and NBC are under the same CEO, right?

Lmfao, R155/R159/R161is having a major mental breakdown. Mama Cuomo, is that you? Did you forget to take your meds today? Go to sleep, girl. It's way past your bedtime.

[quote]You idiot, you cant even get the joke right. It's don't RINSE the pasta.

You don't know what you're talking about, R165. The DL running gag was always about the advice that one should never drain pasta in a colander, but instead lift it out with tongs. No one who knows anything about cooking pasta would ever suggest rinsing it. But you go right ahead and call other people fools, if it makes you feel smarter.

R161 must have been the leader of the Michael Avenatti bandwagon

Chris could not land an exclusive interview with Miss Lindzey while Fox has her on daily. Even Newsmax gets Miss Lindzey interviews.

CNN showed their frustration.

R167 You know that MSNBC and NBC are SEPARATE entities with separate leadership?

poor Fredo!

guidos are pretty to look at, but they're all retarded

Retarded? Pot meet Kettle.

[quote]He's a 5'2" hot piece of ass

He claims he's 6'2". A great example of celebrities, including tiny Brad Pitt lying about their height.

If you applied the same standards to the Fox anchors they'd have no one left.

We’re the coworker allegations made by a male or female?

"Just like GOP, Democrats can also be crooks."

But the GOP doesn't sacrifice their crooks at the altar of political correctness, nimrod.

Pussy grabber in chief Trump, underaged molester Goetz, and all around perv Gym Jordan are all alive and kicking despite sexual allegations against them. But more importantly, there are no Republicans demanding they be reprimanded either, nor are there any backstabbing cunts like Letitia James or Kirsten Gillibrand calling for their heads to be cut off.

The contract presumably would have had an escape clause if someone's conduct got so egregious it was deemed harmful to the reputation of the enterprise. Since one new wrinkle has already emerged, it seems like CNN just threw in the towel and decided the drama wasn't worth the fall out.

[quote] We’re the coworker allegations made by a male or female?

Oh, DEAR!

Republicans are now gloating over this.

But yeah, you so-called "Democrats" keep on cheering for Chris' firing.

Dumb cunts.

R182. Chris Cuomo deserved to lose his job, because he violate the ethics of his profession when he used his contacts to help his brother evade responsibility for what he had done -- harass women and abuse his office as governor.

I watch CNN. I applaud them for holding Cuomo to the standards of a journalist.

You ought to be angry at Andrew Cuomo for using hs brother for selfish and perhaps criminal ends.

Meanwhile, Republicans are still grabbing pussies, threatening fellow lawmakers with death, and inciting the overthrow of the US government.

But yeah, you Democrats go right on "applauding" CNN for being soooooooo brave.

*rolling my fucking eyes in disgust*

You people have no balls.

Bye Bye Freddo, Don't let door hit your ass on the way out...You'll need to keep it up for all the loads you'll be having to take..

Now that could get him some ratings. Imagine how his racist pig father would be swirling round in the hell fires he's in watching his darling suono getting speared by some BBD

[quote] Bye Bye Freddo, Don't let door hit your ass on the way out...You'll need to keep it up for all the loads you'll be having to take..

"Fredo" would still beat your cowardly Deplorable MAGAT ass in two seconds flat.

Just look at this whimpering, simpering, sniveling little cunt back down like a pussy.

I truly agree with you, R184.

The reason the Democrats can't get anybody to run for office is because of puritanical, morality police pricks like BonniePrinceCharlie who insist potential Democratic candidates must pass the "better and holier than Jesus Christ test," and if they're found lacking in even one area, they're crucified. Who needs that shit in their life.

At a time when the Democrats need strong spokespeople, we have Bill and Hillary Clinton, Al Franken, the Cuomos, and Barack Obama sitting on the sidelines, lest their alleged "criminal and immoral" activities past and present be exposed by SJWs and Wokesters of the Democratic Party. Who needs Republicans when you have Democrats ready, willing and more than able to stab other Democrats in the back?

[quote] Meanwhile, Republicans are still grabbing pussies, threatening fellow lawmakers with death, and inciting the overthrow of the US government.

Don't forget the underage sex trafficking and drugs!

R182/R184: "But the GOP doesn't sacrifice their crooks at the altar of political correctness, nimrod."

Perhaps because those you mentioned don't claim to be virtuous, like Cuoma, etc..

But MOI is the moral spine of our great party and MOI will bring all your important social justice concerns to full fruition.

R187, More than a dozen women have accused Andrew Cuomo of sexual harassment. That's wrong. It's not being puritanical. It's holding him to account for the abuse of his power.

I put 20 dollars that not a single charge finally sticks on Andrew.

R186 that guy isn't backing down he's standing his ground as little Chrissy goes ballistic. And that 'fat biker' who questioned why Chrissy was out and about in the Hamptons when he was supposedly quarantining Hamptons didn't back down either when Chrissy's steroidal rage went into overdrive.

One stupid ass host of a stupid ass TV show gets rightfully fired, and we have posts attacking POC, attacking Gillibrand for no goddamned reason (she wasn't even involved, you retarded trolls), and posts endorsing moral bankruptcy. Just a regular Sunday morning at DL. Kudos to all the decent posters here speaking the truth about this nitwit to the bigots and the cock hungry psychos still defending him.

"Perhaps because those you mentioned don't claim to be virtuous, like Cuoma, etc.."

Where the fuck have you been for the last 40 years, R189. The Republican Party has been hiding behind their facade of fake religious piety and faux patriotism for decades. And let's not forget their "sanctity of life" and "sanctity of marriage" bullshit they've been shoving down our throats since Ronnie Raygun and Jerry Falwell Sr. decided to lick each other's assholes. JFC, R189, Newt Gingrich was claiming to be a saint the whole time he was accusing Bill Clinton of moral turpitude.

"It's holding him to account for the abuse of his power."

And when will you get on your moral high horse and demand Trump, Goetz, Jordan, et al be held to account for their tremendous abuses of power that has been going on for decades?

"we have posts attacking POC, attacking Gillibrand"

She was instrumental in getting rid of Al Franken. Oh, what short memories we have.

Cuomo's father was racist, R185?

[quote] I put 20 dollars that not a single charge finally sticks on Andrew.

What charges? His employer didn’t like how he was doing his job, and fired him. End of story.

There is evidence, you dope! Ample! Just what the AG’s office released is more than sufficient.

R197 I TYPED: A* N* D* R* E* W. The former Governor, Andrew Cuomo, who is under Federal investigation. Twat.

Al Frankenstein was a weak sister and folded which made him seem guilty. He's fug! Who cares?

Isn't forcing out of jobs white male Democrats per sexual behavior, and leaving Republicans alone, is what pleases Kirsten Gillibrand?

Franken, also a sex pest. Heard he resigned cause there were scores of other women who would be coming forward regarding his nastiness.

Also should have cancelled for just how unfunny & pretentious he was.

Also how he rode the pony of his wife's alcoholism into public office.

Man oh man was she a doormat or what? Talk about having your spouse publicly hang the shit shame bag around your neck. Then add the icing of his sex shit for all the world to see. Wifey needs to grow a set.

Just like charges didn't stick on Mattress Girl's supposed rapist. And those hunky trainers didn't lying Lynch Jesse Smollet. Maybe democratic leaders shouldn't immediately champion every SJW tale of sexual assault.

R202 I heard all that too! And I heard Hillary Clinton sucks the blood out of babies, then orders her Palestinian lesbian slave girls to roast the babies and serve them to her Bilderberg friends, Bill Gates, The Pope, and Soros.

Only on DL would a thread about Chris Cuomo turn into a flame war.

If his last name were Johnson, he'd be a mechanic.

R204 Hey Al: Could you do your Stuart Smalley, I'm bulimic & its always nice to be able to puke up lunch without my finger.

Actually just post a pic. of your face, that might do it as well.

Journalism - good journalism - works on behalf of the public, holding people to account. How do you hold them to account when they're your brother? How do you hold them to account when you're working on behalf of them? How do you do your job if you don't declare a conflict? How do you do your job when your show can't cover certain stories?

Cuomo failed to be fully forthcoming about the extent of his involvement - which was aimed at preventing damage to his brother - the sitting governor of a state. That's pretty messy. When somebody shows you who they are, believe them. What he showed is that he puts his family first - which you can't do in a position of public trust. There are more than enough qualified journalists do hold people to account as Chris Cuomo did, for those mourning his loss on that basis. He is not that talented or gifted, although that may be news to him.

CNN failed to say we can't sacrifice your show to your family, so the night's it needs coverage, you're on the bench.

I feel the same level of discomfort when they flit around the Vanity Fair Oscar party. That's not about cultivating sources, that's about hanging out with the cool kids. And the minute you do, you're compromised. Elites covering elites - and sometimes they party together. Not a successful formula for real journalists, which Cuomo and most of CNN would probably lay claim to being.

I would still take every inch of that gorgeous cock if it was presented to me!

Get some decent, sincere people as the public face, not these showboating clowns.

I don't really care do U?

Cuomo was really terrible on that show, which is why it’s sad that it did so well.

Wonder what Alyson Camerotta (sp?) thinks. When she co-anchored the morning show with him, he was the alpha.

Was Andrew ever as hot as Chris?

I’ve always hated him and thought he was a huge detriment to democrats. Who wants the loudmouth brother of a politician hosting a tv show where he complains & complains & complains all the time LOUDLY like a spoiled brat. My husband was a big admirer of Mario Cuomo. but based on his sons’ behavior, he wasn’t all that.

What I don't get is journalism and broadcasting are supposed to be competitive fields, yet they can't seem to find anyone who has basic decency. And they cling on to them as if they can't find replacements .

And these awful people ie Toobin, keep coming back. There really is no one nationwide who is capable of being a decent coworker and professional broadcaster? You can't find experts who are able to conduct themselves appropriately? Like there's only five lawyers available?

R214 I wonder about that, too. I remember when they were paired on the CNN morning program, and I felt like she was eclipsed by Cuomo.

I like Jim Sciutto a lot, but I don’t have the patience or appetite for morning news programming. There is way too much “teasing” of headlines and way too many advertisements for hearing aids, denture cream, predatory health and insurance plans and products. It’s all just pretty awful.

I just find this so funny. It wasn't all that long ago that certain democrats were wishing that Andrew could run for president based on his Covid response and now he's the worst thing since ptomaine poisoning. I just shake my head at all of this. No one cares what Andrew did and no one cares what Chris did. Democrats continue to fuck themselves over by holding themselves to standards that no one gives two fucks about.

Character counts. If only for oppo research. Hillary Clinton couldn't get elected and she didn't actually do anything wrong, People don't care until you're the candidate. (And you conveniently overlook the part of Cuomo's COVID triumph where he loaded nursing homes with... COVID patients.)

La-la-la-I-can't-hear-you isn't really a good strategy.

As we've learned, the American voting public can overlook a lot.

[quote] wishing that Andrew could run for president based on his Covid response

You're joking, right?

[quote]"It's holding him to account for the abuse of his power." And when will you get on your moral high horse and demand Trump, Goetz, Jordan, et al be held to account for their tremendous abuses of power that has been going on for decades?

I've been demanding it for a long time, R195!

Think about joyful holiday moments.

R172 You clearly have no idea how news companies work.

Not to add an extra element of politics in this thread, R217, but that was a partial gripe of the racial protests last year.

It’s a big club, and we’re NOT in it. Promotion based on merit? In America???? HAH!

[quote] Chris Cuomo deserved to lose his job, because he violate the ethics

But calling Dr. Anthony Fauci as Nazi doctor Josef Mengele on TV by Fox New Reporter is ethical?

What will Fox do? Oh right, nothing. Not even an apology.

R219 wins the thread.

The only one here who is actually living in reality.

[quote] More than a dozen women have accused Andrew Cuomo of sexual harassment

A.C.C.U.S.E.D.

And yet not one has produced a single shred of evidence, out of that dozen.

Sad, how women can do this to men.

[quote] R186 that guy isn't backing down he's standing his ground as little Chrissy goes ballistic

Proof yet again that Deplorable MAGATS live in an alternate reality.

Their own reality, where truth doesn't exist.

So CNN should do nothing about its problem talent because Fox does nothing about its problem talent?

That doesn't make any sense to me, R227. Help me along here.

[quote]So CNN should do nothing about its problem talent because Fox does nothing about its problem talent?

You need to define what a problem is. I'm not who you addressed your question to, but the reason given for Chris' firing is not what I, and most people, would consider a problem. Even if the real reason was because Chris was a douche off camera and his colleagues didn't like him is still not a good enough reason to fire him. How long did these fuckers keep RIck Santorum on the air?

R230: see R207, R208, R209. That's how I define the problem. Most people would consider all that a problem. That you don't leaves me wondering who has your power of attorney for care.

[quote]Most people would consider all that a problem.

I don't agree. Not even a little bit. And just so we're clear, there is a difference between journalism and what CNN, MSNBC, and Fox does everyday, 24/7.

I think you'd have a hard time selling that distinction to St. Cuomo.

[quote]I don't agree. Not even a little bit.

Careful, Zuzu, you might shatter your glass slipper if you stomp your little foot that hard.

Think of it this way.

Let’s assume you’re some political aide or White House lackey or something like that. Ya know, those “people familiar with the matter” or “sources close to the governor.” And assume the Cuomo scandal never blew up publicly.

If you’re the one giving Chris Cuomo gossip for him to report on his 9PM—highly rated—show, and you report something that offends him/his brother the Gov, and they retaliate against you, are you going to want to share information ever again??? Will your colleagues??

Staff was aware of Zuker’s conversations with Trump, and remember the DOJ hacked phones under Trump looking for leaks.

If you’re CNN, and you let that behavior stand, you lose your access and your news exclusives to Fox & MSNBC. It really is about maintaining the brand…

Chris will not be able to wipe the stench off of him about this, coupled with his Fredo behavior that apparently extends to the workplace. CNN had to act—to protect their reputation, their sources.

But Fox!

R227 And last year on MSNBC, Donny Deutsch compared Trump to Adolf Hitler.

Irony = Chris Cuomo got fired. Andy Cohen still has a job. Don Lemon still has a job. Tom Daley still has a job.....Just sayin'

Chris Cuomo's attorney speaks out.

How long until Gloria Allred surfaces?

[quote][R227] And last year on MSNBC, Donny Deutsch compared Trump to Adolf Hitler.

Donny Deutsch is just a guest commentator with his own business who personally knew Trump. Lara Logan is a full time employee of FOX and is one of their journalist. There's a bid difference here. If you are going to wring your hands about Cuomo's journalistic ethics, you have to compare apples with apples. So has Laur Logan apologized? Has Fox fired her? NOPE.

Bye, douche-bro-Cuomo. Time to hire another liberal leaning anchor who is not loud, boisterous, preachy, smarmy, and well, you know…. not douchey..

He's looking to sue CNN over this!

[quote]He's looking to sue CNN over this!

Who does he think he is, Donald Trump?

To R244, but Chris Cuomo will get PAID!! Already interviewing Attorneys (KILLERS).

Chris Cuomo forced out of SiriusXM after sexual misconduct claim, CNN firing: sources

Fired CNN host Chris Cuomo announced Monday that he quit his SiriusXM radio show — with a source saying he was forced out of the side gig after a former female colleague at ABC News accused him of sexual misconduct.

Cuomo “really wanted” to stay on Sirius but was told he needed to leave, sources said.

In a tweet posted after scandal-scarred ex-ABC journalist Brian Ross filled in for him on Sirius earlier in the day, Cuomo made no reference to the anonymous accusation that CNN received last week but wrote, “The way my time ended at CNN was hard.

“While I have a thick skin, I also have a family, for whom the past week has been extraordinarily difficult,” Cuomo said.

“So, right now, I have to take a step back and focus on what comes next. That means I will no longer be doing my SiriusXM radio show.”

A source familiar with the matter said of Cuomo, “He was asked to resign, which he did.”

Another source said Cuomo — who continued hosting his “Let’s Get After It” radio program after CNN fired him on Tuesday — “really wanted to keep his SiriusXM show.

“He thought he would be able to keep it,” the source added.

In a prepared response, the radio network said, “Following Chris Cuomo’s statement that he is leaving his SiriusXM show, ‘Let’s Get After It’ will no longer air. We thank Chris for his work at SiriusXM.”

In his tweet, Cuomo added a cryptic message to his “loyal listeners” that said, “I will miss our conversations a great deal — but I look forward to being back in touch with you all in the future.

“The former “Cuomo Prime Time” star was fired by CNN on Saturday, four days after being suspended over revelations that he secretly tried to help his older brother, former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, fight the sexual harassment allegations that forced him from office in August.

Documents released by state Attorney General Letitia James, who commissioned an outside probe of the claims, showed that Chris Cuomo contacted news industry “sources” about planned reports amid the spiraling scandal and also tried to dig up dirt on at least one accuser.

In announcing his firing, CNN said, “Additional information has come to light” — which was later revealed to be an unspecified allegation of sexual misconduct dating to Chris Cuomo’s time at ABC.

Chris Cuomo’s spokesman has insisted, “These apparently anonymous allegations are not true.”

Chris Cuomo prepping to sue CNN for more than $18M over contract: sources

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.

His contract was reportedly worth $6 million annually, leaving between $18 million and $20 million that he would be owed, sources said, adding that Chris Cuomo would also likely seek damages.

But CNN has “no intention of paying [Chris] Cuomo a penny,” an insider said.

“If he gets a settlement, there would be uproar,” the source added.

nother source said, “CNN has a standard morality clause in their contract that says if the employee does anything of disrepute, they can be immediately fired.”

Chris Cuomo was canned Saturday, four days after being suspended over information contained in a trove of documents released by state Attorney General Letitia James from her investigation into the sexual harassment allegations that forced Andrew Cuomo to resign in August.

Lawyers from the white-shoe firm of Cravath, Swaine & Moore told CNN that the documents gave the network legal grounds to fire the “Cuomo Prime Time” star for contacting “sources” about planned news reports regarding his brother, as well as trying to dig up dirt on at least one of Andrew’s accusers, sources said.

The lawyers’ stance even came ahead of a planned internal CNN probe into an unspecified sexual misconduct allegation against Chris Cuomo that the network received last week and which dates to his time working for ABC News, sources said.

Chris Cuomo’s spokesman has insisted, “These apparently anonymous allegations are not true.”

On Sunday, a spokesman for Chris Cuomo told the Wall Street Journal that CNN President Jeff Zucker knew “about the details of Mr. Cuomo’s support for his brother,” adding, “There were no secrets about this, as other individuals besides Mr. Cuomo can attest.”

In response, CNN blasted its former 9 p.m. weekday host, saying, “He has made a number of accusations that are patently false.”

“This reinforces why he was terminated for violating our standards and practices, as well as his lack of candor,” the network added.

A CNN insider on Monday also called Cuomo’s claims “absurd” and “patently untrue.”

“If Jeff had known all along, Chris would have been fired earlier, not suspended,” the source added.

“He lied to us.”

Both CNN and Chris Cuomo’s spokesman declined to comment.

I guess that ego can't let him do anything but sue.

This is getting fabulously ugly.

I don't trust that Letitia James bitch. She's got an agenda, that seems to be primarily about taking down Democrats.

There's nothing I like more than a bare knuckles brawl between fake news organizations and the hired help. It gives such credibility to my ridiculous claims. Keep up the good work, Dems. You just keep making it easier and easier to be reelected in a landslide.

She can't make up documents. The probe was external.

Since they brought Jeffrey Toobin back after some time in the wilderness, I wouldn’t be surprised if Chris Cuomo returns eventually. Well, depending on ratings.

Wasn’t this sexual harassment claim from ABC old debunked news from a few months ago? How can - another network - rehash that and use THAT as the final straw for firing him?

Let’s face it, both Cuomos are arrogant assholes who made a lot of enemies, who were looking for any good reason to take them down.

If they were better liked this wouldn’t have happened. Behind the scenes politics - he was hated pretty much.

They've called him a liar in print. He's not coming back and it doesn't sound like many people want him back anyway.

Back in the early Covid days I remember wondering if having his brother on his show was such a great idea. There was even a thread on it at the time. I didn't think there was anything wrong with their inane banter but I can also see how it could easily become inappropriate, especially since it was around the time of the nursing home deaths.

R255 in about two years he’ll get hired by FOX - mark my words. It’ll be under the guise of hiring someone from the left for more “fair and balanced” reporting but in reality he’ll end up veering center right.

And of course he’ll get a $$$ book deal.

It's weird how a hand full of haters on here are totally obsessed with this guy. It got fired, bid deal. Move along. Form the outside it looks like a lot of you haters on here have a secret crush.

Then broads are coming out now claiming he sexually harassed them. I bet his marriage is shit and his wife was hanging on for the money and prestige. I bet she files for divorce before Santa comes down the chimney.

R258, all of the allegations against him and his brother are EXTREMELY flimsy. And the whole thing seems like an organized plot to take them down.

R258 SECRET crush? We all have a crush on Chris Cuomo, who wouldn't?

But that doesn't negate the fact that he's an asshole.

[quote]Move along.

The one who should move along on is you.

^move along is you.

The goose flies at night!

So you admit it? Well at least you own your obsession. Enjoy your hate JO session on the DL then.

R264 needs to get his dry mussy lubricated.

You seem a little invested there, R264. Please explain why you are upset.

We won't care but it may be amusing and fun to mock.

Well, listen to her at R264!

R264 Welcome to the DataLounge, Matilda!

The ratings went up by 30% without him...what does that tell you?!

[quote]How long until Gloria Allred surfaces?

It takes a lot of time now. She's 80 years old.

I didn't realize Gloria was that old, R270.

Wow, I dont want to know what an 80 something Gloria Allred looks like. Can you imagine how bitchy she is in her old age? She was cunty way back when she was in her 40's.

[quote]Wow, I dont want to know what an 80 something Gloria Allred looks like.

Not that different, R272.
