Because of this, CNN\u2019s reputation is now pretty much trashed. It\u2019s been apparent that the upper management at CNN\u2019s parent company has been looking to ease him out the door. Now it seems that investigation into Fredo Cuomo that led to his firing has also turned up some dirt on Zucker. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/jeff-zucker-cnn-failing-to-disclose-consensual-relationship-colleague-i-was-wrong\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>Here are the details from Fox News<\/b><\/a>:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><b>Embattled CNN boss <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/zucker-warnermedia-discovery\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jeff Zucker<\/a> walked away from the liberal network on Wednesday after failing to disclose a &#8220;consensual relationship&#8221; with a CNN staffer.\u00a0 <\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><b>&#8220;As part of the investigation into Chris Cuomo\u2019s 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\u2019t. I was wrong. As a result, I am resigning today,&#8221; Zucker wrote in a memo to staffers shared by CNN\u2019s Brian Stelter.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"&quot;Well...................Bye.&quot;\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/PVrEwCa8nSA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Walked away?

I certainly wish my tenure here had ended differently. But it was an amazing run. And I loved every minute,&#8221; Zucker continued. &#8220;I am grateful to the thousands of incredibly talented CNN and Turner Sports employees who helped make this such a joy for me, and such a success for all of us. I wish each of you nothing but the best in the years ahead.&#8221; <\/b><\/p>\n<p>Nine great years? Oh I don\u2019t think so. It was under Zucker\u2019s tenure that CNN became known as one of the biggest purveyors of Fake News out there, along with the New York Slimes and the Washington Compost. Granted, CNN has had issues going back a while, but under Zucker, things went from worse to gawd awful.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.pinimg.com\/originals\/27\/26\/67\/2726670fd3151618001c89566b688968.png?resize=450%2C369&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"450\" height=\"369\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><b>Under Zucker, CNN has recently been plagued by scandals, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/cnn-producer-minors-sex-details\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">embarrassing headlines<\/a>\u00a0and struggles to attract an audience, leading critics to wonder if he would be shown the door once a planned merger between WarnerMedia and Discovery\u00a0is finalized later this year. However, the sudden resignation before the potential deal was finalized sent shock waves across the media industry. <\/b><\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t know why people are so shocked. Never mind his boinking someone there. Frankly, as long as both parties were consenting, I don\u2019t care. Zucker\u2019s tenure at CNN has been on life support ever since AT&amp;T decided to unload the network.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><b>In February 2021, Zucker reportedly told CNN staffers he would continue to oversee the\u00a0liberal network\u00a0for the remainder of the year but expected to &#8220;move on&#8221; when his contract expires at the end of 2021.\u00a0 <\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><b>Many insiders quickly dismissed the news that Zucker would actually walk away from CNN, where he is known to be hands-on and personally allowed it to drift from a just-the-facts news operation to a hyperpartisan opinion platform. &#8220;He ain\u2019t leaving,&#8221; a CNN employee casually told Fox News Digital at the time.\u00a0 <\/b><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter \" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.pinimg.com\/originals\/24\/06\/27\/240627cc0e92dfd23f8e1161d04a29a1.png?resize=330%2C330&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"330\" height=\"330\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Once again, the ever so balanced and honest journalists at CNN got it wrong. Still, it would normally have been a good bet that Zucker would have been kept on, since his nemesis WarnerMedia CEO Jason Kilar was leaving the holding company, and that Zucker\u2019s \u201cBestest Buddy,\u201d Discovery CEO David Zaslav, was going to run the new company. Perhaps Zaslav is more interested in trying to restore CNN\u2019s credibility as a source of real news and information instead of being nothing more than a part of the Progressive Liberal Democratic Communazi Propaganda Corps. We\u2019ll find out what happens on that front down the road.<\/p>\n<p>Thatisall<\/p>\n<span id=\"post-ratings-36488\" class=\"post-ratings\" data-nonce=\"3ddc44df55\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_36488_1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/stars_crystal\/rating_on.gif?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"1 Star\" title=\"1 Star\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(36488, 1, '1 Star');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(5, 0, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" \/><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_36488_2\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/stars_crystal\/rating_on.gif?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"2 Stars\" title=\"2 Stars\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(36488, 2, '2 Stars');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(5, 0, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" \/><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_36488_3\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/stars_crystal\/rating_on.gif?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"3 Stars\" title=\"3 Stars\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(36488, 3, '3 Stars');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(5, 0, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" \/><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_36488_4\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/stars_crystal\/rating_on.gif?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"4 Stars\" title=\"4 Stars\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(36488, 4, '4 Stars');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(5, 0, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" \/><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_36488_5\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/stars_crystal\/rating_on.gif?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"5 Stars\" title=\"5 Stars\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(36488, 5, '5 Stars');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(5, 0, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" \/> (<strong>2<\/strong> votes, average: <strong>5.00<\/strong> out of 5)<br \/><span class=\"post-ratings-text\" id=\"ratings_36488_text\"><\/span><\/span><span id=\"post-ratings-36488-loading\" class=\"post-ratings-loading\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/loading.gif?resize=16%2C16&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" class=\"post-ratings-image\" \/>Loading...<\/span>\n<p><i><b>~The Angry Webmaster~<\/b><\/i><\/p>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\namzn_assoc_placement = \"adunit0\";\namzn_assoc_search_bar = \"true\";\namzn_assoc_tracking_id = \"angersentral\";\namzn_assoc_search_bar_position = \"bottom\";\namzn_assoc_ad_mode = \"search\";\namzn_assoc_ad_type = \"smart\";\namzn_assoc_marketplace = \"amazon\";\namzn_assoc_region = \"US\";\namzn_assoc_title = \"Shop Related Products\";\namzn_assoc_default_search_phrase = \"CNN\";\namzn_assoc_default_category = \"All\";\namzn_assoc_linkid = \"cdef28ef521a288da7707e6c2636e42b\";\namzn_assoc_rows = \"2\";\n<\/script><br \/>\n<script src=\"\/\/z-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/onejs?MarketPlace=US\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Good day all.
