Chris Cuomo was fired from CNN this week after he was suspended. New information came to light that led to his termination and we know what that was now.
According to TMZ, Cuomo was accused to sexual harassment just before his firing. He was already on thin ice when that accusation came down.
Debra S Katz, an attorney, came forward to reveal that she was retained by a woman who wanted to go public about sexual harassment from the now-fired CNN anchor. This was something that she got the courage to do after seeing the scandal he was in regarding his brother Andrew Cuomo.
“I have always cared very deeply about these issues and profoundly so. I just wanted to tell you that. Hearing the hypocrisy of Chris Cuomo’s on-air words and disgusted by his efforts to try to discredit these women, my client retained counsel to report his serious sexual misconduct against her to CNN.”
The woman, who is remaining anonymous for now, is “a former junior colleague of Chris’ from another network.” Her claims are also unrelated to Gov. Cuomo.
