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.

CNN is a flaming dumpster fire of sexual impropriety.

Why do I think the so-called undisclosed romantic relationship is a red herring?

Because this is XiNN.

Maybe FOX can buy their Atlanta HQ when CNN leaves the building?

My take: AT&T is using this as an excuse to get rid of Zucker so that they can try to take CNN in a different direction. Viewership is down 90% at CNN and they’ve got to do something. Plus Prez Trump at his last rally called out CNN and said that AT&T that owns CNN should be boycotted. I’m sure AT&T is feeling the heat and wants to shuffle the deck of cards over at CNN before their ratings are down 100%. As a spectacle sport, this should be very interesting to watch. I’m hopeful more dirt will come out soon so we can all enjoy the further degradation and pig wallowing over at CNN.

"Zuck has taken responsibility for what he did. He wasn’t forced, threatened or coerced. For a liberal he has acted quite honorably."

“Allison Gollust is totally not worth it.”

I guess Zucker's aim wasn't true.

What a cesspool of slime corruption perversion libtardism and fake news 🤪

Good assessment.

How about suggesting CNN change to that line to replace its worn out "CNN--The Most Trusted Name in News"?
