That's not what this is about. If Chris Cuomo goes down, he's going to take a ton of other media "sources" who wanted favors with him and CNN knows it. See Katy Tur.
As I've said, Cuomo knows where the bodies are buried inside CNN and CNN knows it. Main theme of podcast today.
He still might get fired but then comes wrongful termination lawsuit saying "my producers and CNN leadership Jeff Zucker all knew about this and instructed me to do it." So only question is how much does CNN pay him for the NDA. He will fleece them dry.
This isn't like Chris Hayes here. This is the brother of the most powerful Democrat Governor in the country and you're nuts if you think Fredo doesn't have a laundry list of journalists who all asked him for access and favors. That's what this is about. It's PR, not journalism
Anyway, I talked about all of this on the podcast today, which is out from behind the subber paywall. I am kind of a hero on this one for doing it patreon.com/posts/59345346

Sorry GoFundMe Dude, you don't get to simultaneously root for his nomination while claiming you are worried about his nomination, and everyone fucking knows it.
This is why Fauci needs to go. "We are hoping" is not science. It's not medicine.
Also what does "Some degree of protection" mean? What the fuck does that mean? 60%, 65%, 95%? All this does is confuse and scare people. He is not a doctor, he is a bureaucrat.
"How does the network who promoted Chris Cuomo's relationship with his brother and pulled his dumb basement stunt keep him employed?"
Because he was doing what CNN wanted him to do.
CNN is not a news network. It is a political PR operation. Once you look at them this way, allowing Cuomo to get away with all of this makes complete sense.
