CNN's top talents slammed the top boss of the network's parent company over the ousting of president Jeff Zucker during an explosive meeting Wednesday and demanded to know whether or not he'd consulted anyone in the decision.
Anchor Jake Tapper demanded WarnerMedia CEO Jason Kilar address the 'perception' that Zucker lost his job by refusing to pay 'terrorist' Chris Cuomo the $18million remaining on his contract.
'The perception that Chris Cuomo gets fired by CNN. Chris Cuomo hires a high-powered lawyer who has a scorched-earth policy, who then makes it very clear to the world that unless Jeff gives Chris Cuomo his money, they're going to blow the place up,' Tapper said, according to an audio recording of the meeting leaked by Business Insider.
Zucker was cast out of the company with immediate effect on Wednesday after bosses at WarnerMedia and AT&T, which owns WarnerMedia, were told of the affair by Chris Cuomo's lawyers.
He wanted to keep his job until AT&T's $43billion deal with Discovery was completed, but Kilar - with whom Zucker has had a frosty relationship before - insisted that he resign immediately.
The affair surfaced as part of the investigation into whether or not Chris Cuomo, who Zucker fired in December, should be paid the $18million left on his contract. He insists he is entitled to it but Zucker was refusing to pay up, citing his inappropriate work relationship with his brother as cause for the firing.
Cuomo, determined to get his money, is still threatening a lawsuit against the network that is rooted in allegations Gollust and Zucker were inappropriately close with his brother Andrew as well.
To stave off that lawsuit - and more potential scandal - CNN is now reportedly considering giving him half - $9million.
It has also been claimed that...

New Jersey. Last week. Ketchup packets left out of meal order. Police ruled it justified.
“Jeff’s girl a tranny? Very un-feminine”
Jeff has those Harvey Weinstein good looks.
Driving Miss Daisy. Just after the McDonald's drive thru scene.
Oh, wait. I think it wasn't after all.
Will the CNN pedophiles and co-worker adulterer Zucker get the same treatment?
LOL...the McDonald’s drive through scene would have 300 pound L’atisha crawling through the window.
They were all in bed with Andrew Cuomo covering up the deaths in the nursing home. Now they are ratting out each other over being in bed with Cuomo. The rest of them are in bed with Biden and want to be allowed to keep it that way. The almost 50 year old female executive, who wears mini skirts and had a long affair with the boss, still keeps her cushy job for now. Toobin pleasures himself during a conference call still has a job. Degenerates, all of them.
They were also touting Andrew Cuomo as the real leader over Trump during the early days of COVID.
No daddy to protect them and tell them what to say and when, the puppet show goes silent and their empty heads cannot be filled
Wish they had included a line like this: I hear your complaint, see that door, if you don’t like what is going on, take it.
There was no need to push ‘em out now...they’ll be out soon after merger.....although it may have saved some compensation $$ had they quit.
Overview from 30K feet.:
I can not begin to express the joy at seeing the shiiitehole CNN come crumbling down. For years and years I’ve wondered how long the fraud could continue.
It’s a long awaited wish come true; WE TOLD YOU SO !!
I love the scene of Hitler in the background while the battle rages on since they’re the biggest media Fascists there are
Maybe, just maybe, CNN should concentrate on doing hard news straight down the middle instead of treating the place like it’s a frigging bordello.

Kaitlyn Collins is a moron. She wouldn’t get hired anywhere else.
Malone has made no secret of his disdain for how left-wing CNN has become and how he wanted to 'restore' it to its old style of journalism before Discovery inherited it.
Burn it down. Bulldoze the ruins. Spread salt over the ground.
“Inside the explosive meeting with CNN stars angry over Jeff Zucker’s resignation: Jake Tapper called Chris Cuomo a ‘terrorist’, Jim Acosta said network would now become ‘Fox News Light’ and Kaitlan Collins unleashed fury on WarnerMedia CEO”
most likely, this so-called anger is really fear that the whole lot of talking heads are at risk of being fired if the biggest single shareholder of the combined new company, John Malone, has a major impact on the future of CNN ... Malone is a MAJOR Trump supporter and frequent public critic of CNN’s far left propaganda who has stated he like to see CNN evolve back to a straight news outfit ...
It’s been my experience that teams with “top talent” and “stars” on it, usually enjoy a modicum of success - so what’s CNN’s excuse for it’s notoriously poor viewership? - not enough shrill, Sanpaku eyed, hysterical leftist women? Not enough gay men?
Nothing like a 60 year old woman that buys her outfits at Hot Topic. Ewwwwwww.
