CNN's Chris Cuomo accused of sexually harassing female producer while at ABC News (All in the Family!!)
Fox News ^ | 9/24/2021 | David Rutz/Brian Flood

A veteran television journalist accused CNN's Chris Cuomo on Friday of once sexually harassing her when they worked together at ABC News and she feels the "Cuomo Prime Time" namesake needs to "journalistically repent" for his behavior.

In a guest essay for the New York Times, former executive producer Shelley Ross outlined an incident where Cuomo, who came under fire this year for giving private advice to his brother New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo during his sexual harassment scandal, squeezed the cheek of her buttock without her permission in 2005. She also produced an email where Chris Cuomo appeared to admit to the incident and apologize for his behavior.

"At the time, I was the executive producer of an ABC entertainment special, but I was Mr. Cuomo’s executive producer at 'Primetime Live' just before that," she wrote. "I was at the party with my husband, who sat behind me on an ottoman sipping his Diet Coke as I spoke with work friends. When Mr. Cuomo entered the Upper West Side bar, he walked toward me and greeted me with a strong bear hug while lowering one hand to firmly grab and squeeze the cheek of my buttock."

What a ‘roid laden POS. Bet his kids are being raised to carry on those traditions. Like Andy said, they are really “friendly” to others.

They said it was a Million Dollar wound/grope. but the Lawyers must keep that money, ‘cause I still ain’t seen a nickel of that million dollars.

Fredo will double down on the deniles. Remember he advised his brother, Gov Groper.

Way to run interference for Cuomo. Let him get himself out of the mess instead of helping him.

Note to self. Always ask and receive permission preferably witnesses before squeezing the buttock of another person.

What is it with people nowadays?

If my boss grabbed my ass, I would have pulled back and slapped his face. If he took offense, I would have stated in no uncertain terms that only my husband has permission to touch me there.

Was she married to a cuck?

If any man touched me inappropriately infront of my husband, he would have immediately moved in and demanded an apology. If one was not instantly given, he would have asked, in a tone that could freeze blood, for that man to meet him outside. He would not want to ruin the party or accidentally break something while he was bashing the guy’s face in.

Boss or not, it would not matter. He has never tolerated any disrespect towards me.

My husband and I are huggers. We hug family, friends, our children, co-workers, and each other. That is never a problem and no one ever crossed the line.

Then again, we don’t work for creeps.
