Zucker left last month as part of the aftermath of the dismissal of former presenter Chris Cuomo, who signaled the affair of his former boss in his fight for $ 18 million in damages, which he said he owed.
Chris was fired last December after an internal investigation found that he helped his brother Andrew, a former governor of New York, go through a sexual assault scandal while still working as a CNN presenter.
He is still fighting for $ 18 million – the remainder of his contract – but Zucker refused to pay, citing a conflict of interest between Chris’s relationship with his brother and his CNN coverage.
According to Politico, Cuomo’s team said it was hypocritical for Zucker to fire Chris over a conflict of interest when he had his own in his relationship with Golust.
“I have admitted that relations have developed in recent years. I should have revealed it when I started, but I didn’t. “I was wrong,” Zucker said in a statement. “As a result, I resign today.”
