Jeff Zucker, the far-left extremist responsible for destroying CNN’s credibility and ratings, resigned in disgrace Wednesday after acknowledging an inappropriate relationship with a subordinate.

The resignation announcement came from CNN’s Brian Stelter, a far-left conspiracy theorist and proven liar. Here’s the pertinent part of the disgraced Zucker’s statement…

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.

Bye, Felicia.

Per CNN, Zucker’s inappropriate relationship was with Allison Gollust, CNN’s chief marketing officer. She’ll remain at CNN and released a statement of her own:

Jeff and I have been close friends and professional partners for over 20 years. 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.”

Rumors have swirled around Zucker for some time. Earlier this month, there were reports that Zucker and Gollust were “involved in a clandestine romance dating back years.”

The report added, “The alleged affair is said to have begun while the pair was both married: Zucker to wife Caryn and Gollust to husband Billy.”

Zucker took over as CNN chief in 2013 and quickly drove the once-respected cable news outlet into the ground by moving the network to the extreme, which included the embracing of countless conspiracy theories and barrels of misinformation: the Russia Collusion Hoax, the Covington Kids, “Hands Up; Don’t Shoot,” among countless others.

Even more disturbing is how Zucker twisted CNN into a corporate media outlet that openly embraced political violence against the right and encouraged riots in predominantly black neighborhoods.

In the arena of credibility, the results were catastrophic. In the arena of ratings, after an anti-Trump sugar high, CNN watched its viewership collapse as much as 90 percent to humiliating numbers that would have seemed impossible pre-Zucker. As of this writing, CNN’s primetime averages only a little more than 500,000 viewers.

This is just the latest in a litany of unsavory sex scandals to hit the basement-rated outlet. Before he was fired, Chris Cuomo admitted to grabbing a colleague’s butt. CNN legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin was caught masturbating on a work call. CNN suspended him and then, incredibly, allowed him to return. Two CNN producers are implicated in sex crimes involving children. The first, John Griffin, is charged with trolling underage girls for sex. The second was a producer for Jake Tapper’s basement-rated show.

On top of all that, CNN anchor Don Lemon has been credibly accused of a sexual assault and remains on the air, despite a viewership that regularly dips below 500,000.

The ongoing sex scandals at CNN are of no surprise to anyone who understands human nature. For years, the misinformation outlet has puffed itself up as morally pure and demonized those who it saw as falling short. Generally, people who behave in this way are covering up their own misdeed in a cloak of self-righteousness.

These are evil and dishonest people with a grotesque sense of entitlement, so CNN’s internal clock of This Many Days Without a Sex Scandal will undoubtedly need to be reset again soon.

The answer may lie in the corporate realignment where CNN will fall under the purview of John Malone, the new Boss of Bosses. Call it clearing out the deadwood at CNN. Malone recently said:
“I would like to see CNN evolve back to the kind of journalism that it started with, and actually have journalists, which would be unique and refreshing”

Perhaps Malone is going to turn CNN into a real news organization, instead of the 'fake news' joke CNN is now. Look for more fake news propaganda artists to bite the dust in the near future.

New York Magazine: Jeff Zucker’s Relationship with Allison Gollust ‘One of the Biggest Open Secrets in Media’
Joshua Caplan
2 Feb 2022

Former CNN president Jeff Zucker’s romantic relationship with the network’s chief marketing officer, Allison Gollust, was apparently well-known to some in the media, according to a report.

New York magazine reports:

Zucker and Gollust’s relationship was one of the biggest open secrets in media. CNN staffers awkwardly navigated the pairing, since every time they dealt with her, they were keenly aware that she was involved with the boss. They were rolling their eyes at Gollust’s own statement that said “recently, our relationship changed during Covid.” It had been going on for much longer: Page Six would wink at it from time to time, and the two have known each other since they worked together at NBC decades ago......

The calls to fire CNN Misinformation Maven Brian Stelter are coming from inside the house.

“The network needs to step up and fire Brian Stelter,” a CNN insider told the Daily Mail. “He is allegedly our top media reporter – yet he failed to report on the scoop that everyone in the office knew. And if he wants to say he didn’t know, he is truly terrible at his job.”

A cable news veteran, who wishes not to be named, spoke of the close relationship between Stelter and Zucker.

‘Brian Stelter should be calling his agent to start looking for another job,’ they said. ‘He’s been Jeff Zucker’s water boy for years and no one believes he didn’t know about all of this.’

‘He’s been sitting on his moral high horse doing Jeff’s bidding and ripping Fox and every other media outlet that Jeff tells him to while his ratings crash and burn. Where was he on the biggest story at his own network after chastising everyone else?’.....

Disgraced former CNN chief Jeff Zucker’s inappropriate relationship with Allison Gollust proves just how ethically compromised everyone is at the far-left outlet.

Just for starters, they all knew!

Everyone at CNN knew of what we now know was an open secret.

This isn’t about Zucker cheating on and leaving his wife for another woman. No one cares about his personal life. But in this case, his sidepiece also happened to be the very same person who worked her way up to CNN’s number two spot. Good grief, there was even serious talk of Zucker moving on at the end of 2022 and the sidepiece taking over as his replacement.

I know, right?

Apparently, we’re supposed to believe that the woman willing to take a bald, middle-aged gnome into her bed just so happens to be the best person for the job.

Come on.

What’s that, a coincidence, a merit-based promotion?

Oh, yeah, I’m sure Jeff and Allison built a Chinese wall between the bedroom and boardroom because if CNN is known for nothing else, it’s how ********* ethical everyone is.

So everyone at CNN knows Zucker’s sidepiece is not only climbing the ranks but on the verge of taking over, and … no one says a word. No one even leaks anything. This breathtaking conflict of interest is condoned by everyone at CNN through their silence.

On top of that, no one at CNN said anything — not Wolf Blitzer, not Anderson Cooper, not Jake Tapper — when CNN’s media reporter Brian Stelter smeared Radar Online, the outlet that finally broke the news of the affair. Stelter smeared a media outlet for reporting the truth, and Blitzer, Cooper, Tapper were just fine with that.

But if you want to know just how willing CNN staffers were to ***** out their credibility, to do Zucker’s bidding, it goes way beyond covering up the affair and remaining silent as those who told the truth were smeared…

Let’s connect the dots, shall we?

Allison Gollust is not just banging the boss. Allison Gollust is tight with disgraced former Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D-NY). Before she went to work for Zucker at CNN, she worked as Andrew Cuomo’s communications director.

Stay with me here…

So Gollust is tight with Andrew Cuomo. She goes to work for Zucker, and immediately upon grabbing hold of the CNN reins in early 2013, one of Zucker’s first decisions is to hire Chris Cuomo, the little brother of Gollust’s former boss.

Imagine that!

Here you are, a governor filled with presidential ambition, and now your communications director (who was already super-chummy with Zucker going back a decade wink-wink-nudge-nudge-know-what-I-mean-know-what-I-mean) is working for the top guy at a cable news network, and that top guy just happens to hire your little brother to anchor what was, at the time, supposed to be the jewel in the Zucker’s crown: the New Day morning show.

Oh, but then your little brother proves to be a total failure. New Day’s ratings are an embarrassment.

What now?

What now?

Well, in a merit-based world, Chris Cuomo would have been demoted or fired. But when you are Andrew Cuomo’s little brother, and you work for the guy banging Andrew Cuomo’s former communications director, what happens is this: Little Brother Chris is allowed to fail upwards into a primetime perch.

This is happening, and no one at CNN says a word. Not a peep. Not a sound. Everyone knew what was going on. Everyone knew about the dots that connected Zucker to Gollust to Andrew Cuomo to Chris Cuomo, and everyone at CNN allowed Chris to fail upwards into a primetime perch without so much as a tweet, a protest, or a leak to a rival news agency.

Democrats sure got it good…

Oh, and that’s not even the worst of it…

Remaining silent is one thing. Joining the Zucker-Gollust-Andrew Cuomo orgy is something else entirely…

Between 2019 and 2020, everyone at CNN, every anchor, and reporter voluntarily whored out their souls to Andrew Cuomo.

Cooper, Tapper, Blitzer, Camerota, Stelter, Keiler, Lemon, Berman… They all spent a year dismissing and covering up Andrew’s Cuomo’s pile of serial scandals — sexual and otherwise. They all spent a year mythologizing Andrew Cuomo as America’s Governor. They all spent a year positioning Andrew Cuomo as a president-in-waiting to take down Trump.

Knowing all about the Zucker-Gollust-Andrew Cuomo connection, every big name at CNN still whored out their integrity and journalistic credibility to spread truckloads of misinformation in service to this jaw-dropping corruption. And this network-wide corruption to boost Andrew Cuomo undoubtedly contributed to ruining forever the CNN brand, which is now a basement-rated punchline.

They’re all tainted by this sleazy affair, all of them, they all participated, the entire network…
