that part of the reason that you do -- you said at the top that he got to be -- part of the reason jeff zuckercompelled to act and not leaving as suspension because cnn has been getting so much bad press even liberal precincts in the media and starting to spread to zucker itself raising the kind of questions that you raised this morning? charlie: absolutely. these guys are careerists and will throw anybody under the bus to protect themselves. howie: in fairness to protect the brand, to protect -- >> charlie: to protect the brand. the brand is key here. remember what i said earlier about david who run it is whole operation, the key to his marketing effort right now do show that cnn is a real news organization compared to somewhat msnbc but mostly compared to us and you can't do that. it's harder to do that if you're having like obviously, you know, one of your main attractions there part of a huge political story as he was on air. it's just -- it looks so bad, so this is a branding problem but still, i think jeff zucker has to be asked, what did he know, when did he know it and how much of a pu

at that point, jeff zucker stood up for him in a town hall and fact.me jeff zucker who let that ghoulish cuomo breaux shoko want when when there were elderly people in body bags because of the governor's . sending positive patience back in a nursing homes. i am wondering what david says a lab might say about this. he is that had to be a part of that. he was at cnn's headquarters a prescheduled meeting the day that chris cuomo was suspended. what does john malone who was on the board of discovery and will be on the board of warner discovery. what does he think about this? quite frankly, the ratings are horrible. what do they have to stay about jeff zucker's management of the whole shebang? >> kayleigh: exactly. and they released a statement saying now that we know it's come to light, these additional revelations. now we have to part with chris cuomo. to dagen about stress point, he said exactly how he broke network policy and the like. now we have chris cuomo thing that he knew everything the whole time and his or i can prove it. we have zucker saying i

so you had jeff zucker said it was a bridge too far with the latest information coming out by the newk's attorney general and then the following independent investigation that cnn did. and what you saw was chris cuomo came out this weekend and said, look, there's been no new information. my buddy, jeff zucker, has known about this all along and so i think you're going to see them go back and forth. the cuomos don't go away quietly. i think cnn is going to be going up definitely against somebody who wants to clear his name and his brother's name. benjamin: they might not be going away quietly. neither are some of these accusers. one of the lawyers speaking out recently, saying this. hearing the hypocrisy of chris cuomo's on-air words and disgusting by his efforts to try to discredit these women, my client retained counsel to report serious sexual misconduct. you feel like both cuomos that all accusers must be believed first and foremost, until theal he lee gas stations come towards -- until the allegations come towards them and they say witch hunt, witch hunt. i wonder what do you thin

jeff zucker told this guy to denounce his own wife on television, do you think you hesitate before doing it? of course he wouldn't come in out for a second. so when we tell you the media are corrupt, we don't just mean they are corrupt politically, it is much deeper than that. you don't acknowledge the most important roles in life, your first obligation is to your family, your first obligation is not to the state, not to a political party, not to jeff zucker or some creepy leader, it's it's not even to your own career. your most basic obligation is to the people you are related to. when they need your help no matter who they are even if you're the governor of a state, even if their horrible people, you help them anyway because it's your family. it chris cuomo may be an idiot and he is, but he understands that, what a thing to be fired for it. jason whitlock is the host of fearless, happy to have him join us tonight. i cannot believe opening the show with you offering a kind of defense may be not of chris cuomo himself who i do not like but if his priorities when you were called upon to h

be of this dispute if the story is not over, because if chris cuomo is going to try to go after jeff zuckery to do with this, obviously the brothers like to fight, so we are in for more entertainment. >> jesse: they could both go down fighting. >> greg: both are going to be on my show tonight. >> katie: i will be watching. >> greg: i am lying. i love how stelter was drooling over the left over a thanksgiving carcass in that video. he is gone now, everyone, i am available. and then there was another moment where he said, he was on a show, has cnn lost trust on this, and it was like, of course they have, but it's not cuomo alone. it's like asking if cnn has lost trust, how can you say that when you have actually -- your fingerprints are all over the corpse of trust. the 5-your collusion and hoax, find people hoax, drinking bleach, everything is worse than watergate, jussie smollett, kavanaugh, their trust is gone. and i know they listen to the network, zucker will call me but i'm busy. this is a time to regain the lost luster by cleaning house and deciding that the oppression olympics is in t

i can't confirm them this is chris cuomo's word versus cnn president jeff zucker's words. okay with it. when things got too hot in the kitchen only then did he fire me. it will be interesting to see what happens if this ends up going to a court because then i would imagine there is correspondence, text messages emails, between cuomo, between cnn brass. maybe that was the case in this situation because it is reallying it that all of these months, we've already known chris cuomo was advising his brother how to smear credible accusers of sexual harrassment against governor cuomo, right and cnn did nothing. only this week when the damning text messages came out for all the world to see did they actually do anything. by the way, a younger staffer leveled sexual harrassment allegations against chris cuomo just the what his brother was dealing with it. his days in television is numbered anyway. elizabeth: they are acting like prima donna. cnn fired chris cuomo, after attorney that represented governor cuomo's accuser charlotte bennett, that a different client says that chris cuomo

cnn boss jeff zucker whose hand was hard from all the pink slips he spent signing. suzanne scott. no joke there. at least until she signs my performance review. then podcast king, joe grogan. all that horse medicine is paying off. and at number one, tucker carlson. how does a gutfeld gas to get more influential than the host? i just probably realized it is influential list is dominated by fox, as it should be, because we mopped the floor with all those other places. this is probably with a huge audience would have been cutting in handy and clapping and cheering. okay. still. i did feel like they may have left a few notable influential personalities off the list. she may feel of her example for his outfits alone. >> thank you. >> here he is. earlier in this year and one notable performance. obviously he purchased the george hamilton starter kits. >> i actually look like a blowup doll. >> jimmy looks like he was trying to deep fry a turkey and fell in the fryer. when you toasts morris, jimmy, you don't hold them with your teeth. i think his skin is darker than jamie c

jeff zucker is worried about his own reputation.e women who work there, that he finally had to say oh, okay i need to worry about myself rather than protecting this ghoul who he kept on the air and let him bring his brother on the air when there were elderly people in body bags outside of nursing homes because of said governor but they were yucking it up with these swabs on the air. so who does jeff zucker really care about? not your audience. not the women. not the dead relatives of all these elderly people who andy cuomo killed. he cares about himself. that's the only reason chris cuomo hit the bricks. maria: and there could have been heat coming from the incoming owners, discovery network, john malone, the largest shareholder there saying they want cnn to go back to news because, liz, i said this last week. this is not in my view a chris cuomo story. this is a cnn story. they have had no regard whatsoever for the truth, for the past five years. it's not just the bro show and the swabs that we were looking at that jeff zucker allo

reports today cnn chief jeff zucker said it was the last straw. here is chris cuomo on his radio show. >> it hurts to even say it. it's embarrassing. but i understand it. and i understand why some people feel the way they do about what i did. i have apologized in the past. the last thing i ever wanted to do was compromise any of my colleagues. >> harris: despite the outrage over the revolution media analyst brian stelter said his co-worker could be back on the air in a few weeks. >> media critics calling on cnn to take action. colleagues at cnn mad at chris cuomo for putting the network in a tough spot and wanted to see action. you have a lot of viewers, though, who are ticked off he is off the air. cuomo is on the bench for now heading into the holiday season. possible he will be on the bench for several weeks and possible he will be back in january. >> harris: part of the problem, too, from reports on jeff zucker is that he felt lied to. tammy bruce, stand by. we have the white house press briefing questions beginning now. let's watch together.

say people, you and i and people in the business line i'll of course we understand that we know jeff zucker, we know that people who run that dump emmis nbc, where white people are evil and everybody every, every story is a racist story. that comes from the top, if they didn't like what they were seeing on the air that they would stop it, you know that i know that, but the viewer doesn't think that the viewer just pins it on the person or accepts it from the person that they're hearing it from or seeing it from, i hate to say it, but this is why we have you guys to call them out line all. steve, thanks for joining us. finally tonight, according to figures released by the cdc, life expectancy has dropped in the us and coded well, it's somewhat being blamed ortiz alex for hell of it has the story. it's the largest single year decline in life expectancy in the u. s. since world war 2 new data from the us centers for disease control and prevention, national center for health statistics indicates about life expectancy in the u. s. fell by 1.8 years in 2020 from 78.8 years in 2001, 900 to 77 year

i'm starting to think jeff zucker is being cut out of the conversations.eally concerned about the government handling this matter. zucker may be showing the exit pretty soon. >> tucker: it doesn't look that way. i'm not in charge of cnn, but i would put the unit and at 9:00, i think they're calling out for that. >> we've got to try something at that point. anything. >> tucker: so gd. great to see you tonight. thank you. >> thanks, tucker. >> tucker: and evolutionary biologist was attacked, kind of destroyed for defending biological sex, the idea that there are men and women. he has seen it up close, he believes science is being completely corrupted by politics. what an interesting person he is. we are going to talk to him, next. ♪ ♪ >> tucker: you think you are bewildered right now, imagine being an evolutionary biologist, an actual of evolutionary, somebody who studies biology. we we have one here -- she's watched what's been happening in the past five years with bewilderment. he has the ability to describe what is happening. he had an amazing conversatio

did you ever think that cnn president jeff zucker would make the decision to fire cuomo?ial suggestion he might be coming back. do we have any information of what that additional information they claim they uncovered might be? >> well, as it's been reported even by their chief media correspondent at cnn, cnn had brought in an outside law firm that went through text messages and e-mails that chris cuomo -- in which chris cuomo communicated with regard to his brother. to your first question, i think even barring finding something new and they may reveal eventually they found more evidence of inappropriate involvement on behalf of chris cuomo in his brother's defense, they were already in an area where they had to fire him because chris cuomo had basically walked out of the role as a journalist to become a strategist for his brother, a sitting governor, and the network had tried for so long to sort of apologize for that and say it's inappropriate but we think it's within certain bounds that we can live with it and it just became too much. i don't see how they could have stuc

that decision was made by the head of cnn, jeff zucker. he notified the staff here on saturday afternoon and now it is making -- sending shock waves across the tv world on saturday night. here the statement from cnn saying cuomo was suspended after a review. it says despite the termination, we will investigate as appropriate. this suggests something emerged between tuesday and friday that l led to this decision. i received questions worried about cuomo's staff, what happens to the producers? the answer is nobody gets cut away, no one goes away, that staff remains in place to produce the p.m. hour. that is good news for those staffers and a relief because i know there are a lot of people out there that love "cuomo primetime," loved the program and those producers will remain in place. this is a matter of journalistic ethics and standards, about what cnn could tolerate over time. though there was an acknowledgement that family comes first and he was in a difficult situation as his brother was challenged and scrutinized and had to resign due

and whatever that law firm found was apparently enough for cnn boss jeff zucker to take action on saturdayut to chris cuomo for comment. here's what he said in a statement. he said, this is not how i want my time at cnn to end, but i've already told you why and how i helped my brother, but let me now say, as disappointing as this is, i could not be more proud of the team at cuomo prime-time and the work we did as cnn's number one show in most competitive time slot. chris cuomo saying here, i owe them all and will miss that group of special people who did really important work. there are a couple of unknowns here. number one, what was the additional information that came to light to cnn management this week? and the company is not commenting. number two, how will viewers react to this news? there were many chris cuomo fans who were frustrated by the suspension and wanted to see him back. however, at the same time, there were many cnn staffers who were very angry at chris cuomo for the way that he enmeshed his personal and professional lives. the way that he was working with new york governo

at the same time cnn's boss jeff zucker held a primetime meeting with the staff's show and the sentiments were there were reportedly in cuomo's favor. those staffers from the 9:00 p.m. show talked about the anchorman's talent and the pride knelt in the show. so there was a real wide array of feelings in this house. you've got cnn staffers saying get rid of him, he shouldn't work here, he's hurt us. and then you have some of his own producers saying let's bring him back. he should be back. here's the other thing that was unknown to the staff and the press and the public, late wednesday a lawyer contacted cnn with a sexual misconduct complaint about cuomo. on thursday cnn management reckoned with 245 charge, which was from ab an anonymous woman who worked with cuomo years ago at abc. "the new york times" and other outlets had investigated chris in the past, looking for signs of the same allegations that caused his brother's political downfall. so whether a cnn spokesperson announced additional information came to light, it was referring to that misconduct allegation. now right now i know al

cnn chief jeff zucker was facing harsh media scrutiny himself over his prime time host who crossed all kind of journalistic red lines and newly disclosed state documents dramatize the magnitude of his erts including seeking information about two of the women accusing the then governor of sexual harassment. cnn hired a law firm that dug up additional information about cuomo's actions. "wall street journal" report evidence there was a gap between what cuomo told cnn officials and what he said to state investigators. cuomo spokesman told the paper the cnn host kefpt no secrets and stayed in close contact with zucker. cuomo said in a weekend statement he was disappointed and this is not how i want my time at cnn to end. he called his suspension embarrassing. washington lawyer debra katz told cnn last week about a new sexual allegation involving a former junior colleague of cuomo's at another network, apparently abc but provided no details. cuomo denied the anonymous accusation but the complaint didn't help him. chris cuomo, the son of a governor caught between his brother and network wound
