"I Was Wrong": Jeff Zucker Suddenly Resigns From CNN Over Inappropriate Workplace Relationship



CEO head honcho Jeff Zucker announced his unexpected departure from the network after nine years, after investigators looking into the Chris Cuomo scandal uncovered a 'consensual relationship' with a colleague.

In a Wednesday statement, Zucker said that during the Cuomo investigation, "I was asked about a consensual relationship with my closest colleague, someone I have worked with for more than 20 years. I have acknowledged the relationship evolved in recent years. I was required to disclose it when it began but I didn't. I was wrong.

"As a result, I am resigning today," the letter reads.

Shedding more light is the NYT, which notes that Zucker "among the most powerful leaders in the American media," was referring to Allison Gollust - executive VP and chief marketing officer.

"Jeff and I have been close friends and professional partners for over 20 years," wrote Gollust. "Recently, our relationship changed during Covid. I regret that we didn’t disclose it at the right time. I’m incredibly proud of my time at CNN and look forward to continuing the great work we do everyday."

Gollust will remain at the network in her current role, just not 'under' Zucker. She came to CNN in 2013 after leaving NBC, where she and Zucker had previously worked together for 15 years.

Maybe this explains a few things... or maybe not?

In 2017, the pair was seen arguing at a NY Media party that included Harvey Weinstein and others. According to one baffled rival exec reported by Page Six, "It looked like she was reprimanding her husband or something."

To recap, over the last 12 months CNN has lost, or suspended, several key anchors and commentators over various scandals while their ratings have plummeted to embarrassing lows.

Who could be behind this?

So let me get this straight... some dude banged some chick he wasn't supposed to unless he told everyone he was banging her, but he didn't so he resigned so he could keep bangin' her?

And... I'm supposed to be mad about this?

Why in the world would I ever give a f*ck about this?

Dmv nailed it.
Consensual sex wasn't the problem.
His love interest was working for Cuomo
Fredo made a deal. Now he's telling everyone
More heads will role as woke eats itself.

Jury Trial Ordered For CNN's Don Lemon Sexual Assault Case



Looks like the CNN 'days without a sex scandal' counter just got reset again.

A jury trial has been ordered in a 2019 lawsuit against CNN's Don Lemon, who is accused of rubbing his balls in a Hamptons bar and forcing another man to smell his fingers.


After two years of delays in which Lemon repeatedly opposed a jury trial (instead, asking for a 'bench' trial in front of just a judge), Lemon will face judgement for his alleged actions.

"[Lemon] put his hand down the front of his own shorts, and vigorously rubbed his genitalia, removed his hand and shoved his index and middle fingers into Plaintiff’s mustache and under Plaintiff’s nose," reads the complaint filed by plaintiff Dustin Hice in Suffolk County Court.

"Lemon intensely pushed his fingers against Plaintiff’s face under Plaintiff’s nose," the lawsuit continues, "forcing Plaintiff’s head thrust backward as Defendant repeatedly asked Plaintiff ‘Do you like p—y or d–k?’ While saying this, Mr. Lemon continued to shove his fingers into Plaintiff’s face with aggression and hostility."

As PJ Media notes, while Lemon has denied wrongdoing, a witness says he saw the incident go down.

This.... is CNN.

There are stories out that Cuomo plans on suing CNN for 60M. Part of the basis is that Zucker helped Andrew Cuomo during the Trump Cuomo fight about SARS-COVID2. So far as even giving him specific talking points.

See, now I know that you believe that.

I think I'm more close than that with the...Fredo is butthurt still he's not in PrimeTime...Hurt so much that he vowed to take down Zucker. Zucker was the shot caller there at CNN and he loved him some controversy...even if it's not true...Remember "Russia, Russia, Russia"? CNN, what's left of it thinks by firing Zucker that they've rid themselves of retribution lawsuits and the bad operatives. Chrissy Wallace got played. There's going to be more fireworks and like I've already stated on this thread...Anderson Cooper will be the last man standing. They're going to come gunning for him so just wait for some salacious headlines about him soon.

As for the Covid talking points...that's a gimmie. As much as Pope Fauci was on there, he was spoonfeeding them all their lines. "Here comes the airplane...vrooom....vrooom...into the airport...vroom vrroom...who's a good little science airplane?

Now, what's really funny...are all the minions that still drink from their trough and soak in it...they've been had all along and well, most aren't smart enough to see that they got played like the chumps they really are.

Prolly because he has stories to tell about others there at CNN, but he's overextended any usefulness and Zucker isn't there to provide cover.

"Nearly 6 in 10 Americans disapprove of how Joe Biden is handling his presidency, with most of that group saying there's literally nothing Biden has done since taking office that they approve of. The finding, from a CNN Poll conducted by SSRS in January and February, highlights the entrenched politics driving the nation at the start of the midterm year, with little agreement across party lines on priorities for the government or how to handle the coronavirus pandemic.

The President's ratings have fallen across the board, the survey found. Just 41% approved of the way he's handling his job while 58% disapproved, a significant drop from his approval numbers in CNN polling last year. Just 36% of independents and 9% of Republicans approved. Although his approval rating still stood at 83% among Democrats, that was down from 94% late last summer. Biden also continues to have more strong detractors than he does fervent supporters: 41% of Americans disapproved strongly of his performance as President versus 15% who strongly approved. Some of the shift in Biden's numbers comes from a change in Americans' partisan tilt: Republicans and Democrats were about at parity in the new poll, with fewer identifying as Democrats than in other recent CNN polling."

Seems like all the CNN haters forgot about Fox's sex problems. It's nice that two of the decent former Fox reporters matriculated to CNN.
