I’m not really sure why he quit over this?

Maybe his real reason is to spend more time with his family.

The implication is that the woman with whom he was in a "relationship" was an aide to Cuomo (the gov, not Fredo), and that tainted CNN's coverage of Cuomo and its handling of Fredo's departure.

Why do you feel the need to come up with a softened and spun explanation? I realize you democrats have do do this so often to cover for all the many fools who lead you, but when the man has clearly stated his reason, why not just accept it? He quit because as he said himself - he was having asexual relationship with another employee, got caught, it was against company policy, he admits he intentionally chose not to tell anyone, so he quit.

It is much better to quit than to get fired. Those were his 2 options. N"spend more time with his family" my ass. He was cheating on his wife. He will be lucky if he still has a family at all.

He's divorced, and so was his lady friend.

Ok. I was assuming that Ax had gotten at least one part right and that he had a family he spent time with. I should have known better.....

Actually, from what I read, she was also a colleague at CNN, and that’s a big Nono.

Yes, and his subordinate. An even bigger no-no.

Megyn Kelly asked if the affair pre-dated her promotion. If so, well...

Former Fox bunny-girl Megyn Kelly asked if the affair pre-dated her promotion.

Do you think she's looking for justice or ideas?

I believe the affair violated cnn policy.

And had been violating it for 10 or more years.

He finally got to the point where he wasn't making enough money for cnn so he was no longer protected.

And Zucker fired Chris Cuomo without giving Cuomo all of his exit package. So Cuomo went after Zucker saying cnn was being hypocritical .

And once Cuomo started blabbing cnn had no choice.

Fredo said that he will not go quietly, so this makes sense.

[LuFins Dad]

Didn’t Cuomo and Zuck make fun of Pence over the whole no dinner alone with female colleague thing?

[jon-nyc]

I think she's looking for @jon-nyc .

Where have you been all my life daaaahling????

[Larry]

Only if she had a bag over her head.

C'mon, man!

Back in your bad old days, the only way to get you off of that would be with a crowbar and a waterhose...
