CNN fired veteran anchor and correspondent Chris Cuomo, the cable news channel said.
CNN's termination of Chris Cuomo comes after documents surfaced showing that Cuomo, who anchored the 9 pm news slot, offered advice to his politician brother that was deemed too close for comfort by his employerWASHINGTON - CNN fired veteran anchor and correspondent Chris Cuomo, the cable news channel said Saturday, amid an investigation into his involvement with helping defend brother Andrew Cuomo, the former New York governor, against sexual misconduct allegations.
CNN on Saturday found itself in the awkward position of reporting on the firing of one of its own anchors. "So let me now say as disappointing as this is, I could not be more proud of the team at 'Cuomo Prime Time,'" Cuomo added."I owe them all and will miss that group of special people who did really important work.""He's my brother. And if I can help my brother, I do. If he wants me to hear something, I will. If he wants me to weigh in on something, I'll try," he told investigators in July when asked about the counsel he had offered.
