what happened to chris cuomo

Chris Cuomo is a former CNN anchor who was fired from the network in December 2021 for violating CNNs journalistic standards when he helped his brother, former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, who faced accusations of sexual harassment. Chris Cuomo had used his journalistic contacts to try to get information about his brothers accusers, which went far beyond what CNN management were aware of and breached journalistic ethics. In March 2022, Chris Cuomo sought $125 million in damages from CNN over his firing, claiming that CNN repeatedly breached its agreement with him and used him as a "scapegoat". In October 2022, Chris Cuomo returned to TV news with a new job at fledgling cable network NewsNation.
