The female producer of Chris Cuomo’s show “Cuomo Prime Time” begged to leave his show after the pair clashed over “significant differences” — with multiple TV sources saying she found the hot-headed host’s behavior threatening.

Melanie Buck was executive producer of “Cuomo Prime Time” from April 2018 but was suddenly replaced by Izzy Povich in March 2020 — shortly before Cuomo melodramatically returned to the world from his basement in the Hamptons following weeks of COVID-19 quarantine.

A CNN insider confirmed Buck went to CNN boss Jeff Zucker and asked to be taken off Cuomo’s show and moved to another department, which he agreed to. The insider denied rumors that Buck was given a significant pay-off to stay silent over her spat with the agitable anchor. ,ore than one source told us of Buck, “She felt threatened”

Fredo, Fredo, Fredo. I wish the Cuomo brothers would just go crawl under a rock in the Hamptons and leave everyone else alone. They’re a menace to society.

Color me uninformed about studio hierarchy, but isn’t an Executive Producer pretty high up? Why would they have to “beg” to leave? I thought they called the shots.

Here’s hoping that someone reveals whether or not he was covid positive back in Spring 2020. His behavior wasn’t consistent with the claim, and it seemed to be attention getting PR that no one could confirm or refute (due to medical privacy restrictions.)

Zero shmpathy from me. Liberal women know liberal men are chomos, pedos, and predators. As long as they get free abortions they will do whatever their masters command.

Well, didn’t just about everyone feel uneasy with him where he
was.

That goes for Biden too, and a lot of other Leftist people

That new governor in New York is a real gem.

She’s right out of Australia’s Central Casting.

At a former Broadcast TV Producer, I can just offer that, often, an executive producer is just a glorified title for a writer who's assigned to a particular segment or story. However, it's different from station to station or network to network. In the tv series world, you'll often see ten or more executive producer credits. Those are often handed out in lieu of money raises and are agents, writers, lawyers, or any goofball who did a favor to the show or episode.

The long knives are out for the Clinton wing of the democrat party, where they Cuomos have figured prominently.

CNN hired Fredo, knowing he was a pervert, because it would prevent him from diming out other perverts in government and irritainment.

Now that his brother is out of office, they're going to roll Fredo out the door. The sexual harassment claims are part of the script.

So why don’t they call them “script contributors” or something?
