Antifa Turkeesian posted:It’s probably humiliating to be impeached. Also there’s less of a chance people will start to forget what you did so that you can get a show on cnn like Spitzer. That, yes. He now has the last word, a parting shot at his accusers, instead of having all the survivors of his assaults giving graphic testimony about what he did to them in a televised proceeding. I’m sure the NY legislature is eager to drop all the other things he was involved with and will now bury the look into his book money, his high-casualty nursing home policy and the cover up of said policy.

https://www.cnn.com/2021/11/30/media/chris-cuomo-suspended/index.html Chris Cuomo suspended indefinitely today, per CNN, who put it on the top of their page. Usually this sort of news gets buried or ignored on the media outlet it happened on and it's the competing outlets who run with it. And it was a surprise to Cuomo, and to Anderson Cooper, who had to fill in for him at the last minute.

A big flaming stink posted:yeah uh, bad news about that "indefinitely" part Firing a prominent television personality seems like a tricky process. Dan Rather remained on the CBS Evening News for six months after running the fake Bush memo story even as they fired some of the behind the scenes people, and he still sued CBS for being fired. Since they're very public figures, there could be libel concerns that you don't see in other jobs from an immediate and splashy firing. It'd hurt their brand too. Cuomo may even go back on the air and then "leave the network" shortly after that, for totally unrelated reasons, honest.

Could be CNN wanted to have an ironclad legal reason to fire him to avoid a lawsuit, could be they just waited till the weekend to reduce the coverage of it some.

500 good dogs posted:Maybe, but this may indicate that's not what happened https://www.cnn.com/2021/12/04/media/cnn-fires-chris-cuomo/index.html Though CNN also said: quote:"CNN said Saturday that anchor Chris Cuomo has been "terminated" by the network, "effective immediately." I'm a little impressed I read it ON CNN instead of them just keeping it quiet and letting competitors run the story. Also, Cuomo has left or "left" his Sirius XM Radio gig. In any case, good riddance to bad rubbish.
