CNN’s worldwide president Jeff Zucker resigned on Wednesday.
Zucker resigned effective immediately, the network announced.
Mr. Zucker’s relationship with Allison Gollust, the chief marketing officer for CNN, was revealed during an investigation into Chris Cuomo’s sexual misconduct.
What a mess!
“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. 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,” Zucker wrote in a memo.
A quick recap of what the newsroom at CNN has looked like in the last year:
- CNN has fired Chris Cuomo for sexual misconduct
- Anchor Don Lemon accused of sexual assault
- Producer Rick Saleeby forced out for soliciting underage photos and is under criminal investigation
- Producer John Griffin is facing federal sex crime charges involving children
- Jeffrey “Zoomin” Toobin exposed himself during a virtual meeting with colleagues
