CNN President Jeff Zucker Suddenly Resigns Over Undisclosed Romantic Relationship

CNN President Jeff Zucker resigned from his position at the network Wednesday morning after failing to disclose a romantic relationship he had with another senior executive.

“As part of the investigation into Chris Cuomo’s tenure at CNN, I was asked about a consensual relationship with my closest colleague, someone I have worked with for more than 20 years,” he said, according to a statement posted to CNN Chief Media Correspondent Brian Stelter’s Twitter. “I 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 relationship was with Allison Gollust, who is the executive vice president and chief marketing officer of CNN Worldwide.

Gollust was formerly an advisor to disgraced former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D-N.Y.), according to the New York Times.

“Jeff and I have been close friends and professional partners for over 20 years,” the Times reported Gollust as saying. “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.”

Past governor Andrew Cuomo’s brother, Chris Cuomo, was fired by CNN for violating journalistic ethics by giving advice to his politician brother related to his scandals.

It goes without saying that the change of leadership could have a major impact on the future of CNN.

Former President Donald Trump made Zucker’s CNN the foil for his campaign and time in the White House, and the network has lately been struggling significantly with ratings.

"Right but the ‘affair’ was 20 years long. In other words during that marriage."

Zucker said in his tweet: “Recently, our relationship changed during Covid."

He said they worked together for 20 years, but their relationship changed during Covid. He and his wife divorced in 2019, so who knows how long they were having an "affair." Zucker isn't going to admit to it being two decades long, and obviously she isn't either.

Unfortunately, Brandon's newspuppet Fake "Resting Jake Face" Fapper is still standing at XiNN.

We can always hope he gets caught having a three-way affair with "In The Pooper" Cooper and Dumb Lemming.

She’s no beauty, especially compared to Zucker’s wife. But were Zucker not rich, he’d be dating women that look like Rosie O’Donnell.

Zucker is a fat fireplug.

His ex-wife Caryn is taller than him in heels - maybe barefoot, too.

But he has a big thick hard fat wallet, or at least he did...

Ashley Biden:

dear diary - saw a picture of Jeff Zucker today. Why does he look like Gr*ndp* Joe's b*lls*c? Would you like to buy a vowel?

"financially hung"

Yep, his ongoing affair won't help him in divorce court, or at the NY/DC cocktail parties.

God, I hope not.

It would a be a great move for WarnerMedia (owner of CNN) but ROgan would be a fool to take it.
