Title: Jeff Zucker resigns from CNN
Post by: Bronx on February 02, 2022, 09:58:12 AM
The reason he states sounds good but we all know it was the direction he has taken an once journalistic news organization to toilet reading trash.

IMO...we will start to see more and more of CNN top talking heads leave the once beloved CNN

CNN President Jeff Zucker resigns over romantic relationship with Allison Gollust

CNN's top boss Jeff Zucker resigned from the network Wednesday after he didn't disclose a romantic relationship with another senior executive at the company.

Zucker, who has helmed the cable network for nine years, told colleagues in a memo that his relationship with CNN's Executive Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer Allison Gollust came up during a probe into Chris Cuomo's alleged sexual misconduct.

"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," Zucker wrote in the memo, shared on Twitter by CNN's Chief Media Correspondent Brian Stelter.

OK, why?
Seriously, the left never gave a shit about morals in the first place, so why all of a sudden is this an issue?

Last gasp? Rating can't go much lower, this might get the creditors to give them a little time to see what the new guy can do.

Hmmm. Interesting take.
What's sad is, our side is making a huge deal out of this, when there is sooo much more we need to focus on.

Agree with Solar. Ratings are everything in TV. It has nothing to do with morals, but it gives them a nice spin.

No one said a word when Couric exposed the affair a long time ago.
Shock, shocked, I tell ya.  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:


Katie Couric dished on Jeff Zucker and Allison Gollust's relationship in her tell-all memoir last fall, saying it struck staffers as "super strange" when the pair worked together at NBC more than a decade ago.

Zucker announced his resignation on Wednesday as CNN president after he acknowledged a "consensual relationship" with his chief marketing officer, Gollust, that he failed to disclose to his superiors at the network.

Couric, the former "Today" show star who worked under Zucker when he helmed the NBC morning ratings juggernaut in the early 2000s, once observed in her memoir "Going There" that he and Gollust were "joined at the hip."

She noted that Zucker and Gollust not only worked together but their families lived a floor away from each other in the same apartment building while they were both married to their spouses.

"Joined at the hip?" Joined at the groin is perhaps a bit closer.

I think it's pretty obvious, as others have already noted, that Zucker had to go because he has presided over a stunning slide in CNN's ratings, which is the direct outcome of his steering the network into 24/7 anti-Trump demagoguery. As for him voluntarily leaving with his head hung in shame.... bullshit. He was escorted out.

I'm not so sure, I think there is far more that's being hidden and they needed a distraction.
Watch come Friday when the left hides it in a file dump at the last minute.

It appears he wanted out before the ship goes down.
