Chris Cuomo Suspended Indefinitely from CNN. Your thoughts?

Question

PeterQuillsAlive · Accepted Answer

Honestly? It is uplifting to see such a change implemented... However, I doubt it will bring about any positive results. The truth is that the major news outlets are so lost in their own narratives, that only a foundational rework can bring about any positive results.
There is no doubt to why public trust in major media is at an all time low. The fact is that these companies tend to service narratives counter to the truth. They are more interested in making money, servicing political ends, and enriching themselves and partners. Chris Cuomo is just one of many of these types of figures, and likely not even the worst perpetrator (though clearly one of the more visible).
We live in a strange age where these types of figures can play the victim, act as if they are under attack, or that their freedom of press is being beaten to death
while at the same time knowingly lying about major news stories, covering up for their allies, pushing narratives that only enrich their own stations.. etc.
Though I was never a supporter of Trump, he was right about "Fake News"

However, like I said...
I doubt this will bring about any real change
He will just be replaced by another

Wait, really? What did he do? Did he get MeToo'ed? Cause I wouldn't be surprised.

https://www.nytimes.com/2021/11/30/business/media/chris-cuomo-suspended-cnn.html

Well, it's close. He aided his brother during HIS MeToo scandal, and so they threw Fredo under the bus.

However, the surprising thing is that CNN did anything at all. Since when do they even PRETEND to have ethics and morals? I mean, every article is saying "suspended" and not outright FIRED like they would to any conservative, so maybe this is protecting him and they're going to pull a James Gunn and just wait for the heat to die down and quietly reintroduce him back on TV by February or something.

But the fact like, 40-50 articles came up with the same headline also makes me think this is a giant distraction for something bigger, because who TF cares about Fredo, anyway?

And most importantly, WHEN will Andrew Cuomo be sued or prosecuted for all the old people he killed by forcing them into retirement homes with COVID? His bullsh*t "misconduct around women" is being overhyped and his actual DEATHS he directly caused, are being swept under the rug. Seriously, I hate our society.

He’ll jus my be replaced by someone else who will push left leaning talking points.

My thought is MSNBC, Fox News, CNN, and all fringe networks should go off air and return to the good ol’ days of the 6 o’clock news. Bam, news done, no spin, move on with your evening and spend time with your family not being angry or scared.

What took them so long to get rid of him? Their parents raised two son's that are sexual perverts. Humm... makes you wonder what went on in their house growing up.

globetrotter22 · Answer

He’s fired now. Personally I never liked him and thought it was disgusting nepotism and typical blatant CNN partisan bullshit that he was covering his brother. However it turns out he went further than that to downplay his brothers sexual misconduct charges despite saying he was “hands off” about that crap earlier.

HOWEVER there was one “allegation” against him that really irked me. His old boss Shelley Ross came out and said he once grabbed her butt back in 2005. The thing is Cuomo owned up to that and apologized to her back then. Yes it was a douche bag thing to do (and was it worth it Chris? She’s much older than you and not very attractive). But why the fuck does she need to come out 16 years later and play #metoo bullshit when 1) although douchey it’s not “traumatizing”. It’s not like he grabbed her lady parts or did something worse. 2) he owned up to it immediately back then and apologized 3) it was a one time isolated incident. 4) last but least again it was 16 fucking years ago.

While Chris is the “Fredo” of the family i still though Shelley Ross is a real cunt for coming after him and embarrassing him with that crap. Fuck you Shelley Ross. Going public with that crap is typical feminine toxicity bs. With all considered that was completely unnecessary.

AviatorTom · Answer

I never fully understood what he did to "help" his brother during the sex scandal.

In general, I try to ignore what people do in their private lives so long as they are doing a good job. However, society has different rules for celebrities, which always seem to be under a microscope.

Everyone has skeletons in their closet, and if people were fired because a skeleton was revealed, we'd have an awful lot of out-of-work people.

CNN found it justified to suspend, and then fire, him. I support that decision.

CaptainRonnie · Answer

Did they even stop paying him? He's basically on paid vacation for a few months until this gets forgotten about in the news cycle and he'll make a vague apology then it'll be back to business as usual. If CNN brought back they guy who was jacking off on camera they'll bring back Cuomo after a short "suspension". He will remain a joke though

TrueConfection · Answer

He's finally "The Story" which is what I think he always wanted (good or bad). It's better to ignore and pretend he doesn't exist than give him that satisfaction. 👿

ODC2112 · Answer

Those who consider themselves revolutionaries who believe themselves good and just all end up on the guillotine, Robespierre is the greatest evidence. Cuomo is a good journalist, despite not being aligned with my views, yet he will now pay the price for betraying the "true truth" of the American left. However, I have no mercy for him, as he would have done the same with others who deviated from the doctrine. Now he will have to look for a new job, I hope the burning pain in his ass makes him regret.

FunkyMonkee · Answer

GOOD!!! Who the fuck needs that ugly lying fuck OR CNN? NOBODY with a brain listens to them, other than for a good laugh!! Their ratings are already much lower than re-runs of Green Acres or I Dream Of Jeanie!!

sawno · Answer

I guess i am. the only one that will miss him. To me is the most steriotypical douchebag tv presenter ever and he comes across so insanely bad he is meme worthy and not effective. To me he will always be the face of the corporate media.

Loveleigh · Answer

I'm actually sad to see him go. Apart from being pleasant to look at, he was an excellent journalist who did his research and was damn good at his job.

ShadezMcgee · Answer

One less unpleasant turd to look at and have air time. Now if Stelter goes, CNN may actually start getting a hair of respect.

BCRanger10 · Answer

Well, being a comedian is a full-time gig. He'll (presumably) get better... right? C'mon, gimme some... Wait, what? He really though he was an actual journalist?

normalice · Answer

CNN is just a whole media empire made out of the role Colmes had on 'Hannity amd Colmes'. They strive to be the right's straw man and practice dummy so that no one in the national media is saying anything the left actually thinks, lest the right discover they agree with the left on nearly everything.

Anonymous · Answer

Who cares in the grand scheme of things? They’ll just replace him with another talking head and life will go on.

Petermorgan34 · Answer

Purely political, The dems want to save face they will find another person to spew bs as would republicans/fox if they were in the same place. If anything It is uplifting that he gave up his career to try to help his brother get in less trouble when he (former GOV) was clearly in the wrong. Its called being a good brother, not necessarily good but not necessarily bad either. How many of us would not try to help our own who had made questionable choices?

beernbacon69 · Answer

It's about time, he's a jackass just like his brother. CNN is a joke anymore anyways and I would bet in a few months he will be back on the air.

Chillerbeee25 · Answer

Warranted. Obviously understand why he would want to get involved as it concerned his family but from a journalistic/career standpoint he majorly crossed a line. He chose to put family first (which honestly I probably would too if I genuinely believed that my family member was innocent) and the consequence of that was just.

007kingifrit · Answer

sounds like cnn is after new fans lately. their ratings are way down right? i won't trust them ever though

OddBeMe · Answer

Did he actually do anything other than being brother to a millionaire molester? I mean he got his job because of his brother. Poetic justice.

andreasderjuengere · Answer

My thoooooought: The world will never be the same without him :D Let's create a public holiday day for him; set up a few memorial monuments - and boycott CNN for seven generations?

DryGermanGuy · Answer

CNN is cleaning house, I would say? If he inappropriately tried to help his brother, then he deserves to be punished.

Xtcy2083 · Answer

Just one of many who will fall... We're talking roughly 400K commies being taken down just in the USA. Like I said they've lost way more than they know, they're just too stupid to see it. They all go, no deals.

It was a good thing for CNN to do. Now that Chris has earned his untrustworthy credentials, he can get a job at Fox, OAN or Newsmax !

FilmGuy93 · Answer

I think it's good that he got suspended, but I wish it had happened sooner. Both of the Cuomo brothers are incredibly unethical people.

This is absolutely outrageous. All the man did was attempt to help his brother, Andrew, who was and still is the target of completely unsubstantiated allegations of sexual misconduct. Are women's allegations so untouchable now that people cannot even question them?
