Chris Cuomo faces scrutiny at CNN over texts showing lengths he went to aid bro Andrew amid sex scandal



A devastating cache of documents from the sexual harassment probe that forced former Gov. Andrew Cuomo from office now reveals how extensively his brother, CNN anchor Chris Cuomo, was involved in efforts to respond to the scandal.

The newly revealed trove of text messages and investigative interview transcripts, made public Monday, has now put the younger Cuomo's future at the cable network in peril.

The materials show how desperately Chris Cuomo scrambled to try to help his brother — even reaching out to "sources" in the news industry for information — despite his public claim that all he did was "listen" and "offer my take."

Late Monday afternoon, CNN finally broke its silence on the matter, the left-leaning network saying it was now reviewing the documents and suggesting the "Cuomo Prime Time" host's future was hanging in the balance.

"The thousands of pages of additional transcripts and exhibits that were released today by the NY Attorney General deserve a thorough review and consideration," the statement said.

"We will be having conversations and seeking additional clarity about their significance as they relate to CNN over the next several days."

Among other things, the evidence compiled by Attorney General Letitia James shows that Chris Cuomo — who's come under fire for advising his older brother how to respond to accusers and attack critics — told investigators that he tried to keep Alec Baldwin from advocating on Andrew Cuomo's behalf.

Dozens of text messages also show Chris Cuomo and Melissa DeRosa, then Andrew Cuomo's top aide, discussing how to respond to the scandal and his brother's accusers.

At one point, on March 7, DeRosa wrote, "Rumor going around from politico 1-2 more ppl coming out tomorrow."

"Can u check your sources," she added.

"On it," Chris Cuomo responded, apparently willing to use his CNN resources to try and help out.

During sworn testimony on July 15, the younger Cuomo also admitted that he contacted "another journalist" — who he didn't name — for advance notice about the New Yorker magazine's planned publication of an article about his brother by Ronan Farrow, who won a Pulitzer Prize for helping to expose years of sexual misconduct by Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein.

"And did you tell anyone at CNN that you were contacting journalists about whether the Ronan Farrow piece about your brother would be coming out?" lawyer Jennifer Kennedy Park asked.

"No, not specifically," Chris Cuomo answered.

Amazing

I know he probably couldn't help himself but he should have known everything he was doing that was even slightly related to Andrews mess would be watched like a hawk and reported

Can't even say he's "wrong" cuz if it were my sibling it would be hard for me to just sit back and do NOTHING when I have the connections to help in some way

But there are consequences if you're caught

thats his brother
I know

But that's also his job

CNN has a reputation to protect as a news organization. They can't have news of people's cousins brother and baby mamas possibly interfering with their mess.

We're not talking about someone tryna meddle with silly gossip tea behind the scenes on the shaderoom or the Wendy show.

This is a major news organization he works for .

Can't say I wouldn't do the same if I were in his shoes but he may have actually forced them to take action against him even if they love him and don't want to .

His ethics and professionalism are now rightfully in question . I'm not saying he shouldn't have done this for his brother but I'm saying maybe he should have done more not to get caught.

if his ethics and professional are in question over helping his BROTHER, thats pretty idiotic on the part of whomever is questioning that.

family >>>> a job

chris did nothing wrong and CNN has no right to react to this.

babe , u have to understand that companies don't think emotionally and with understanding for family dynamics with things like this

Many actually have policies that explicitly restrict their employees from helping their families (anti nepotism) and will ask prospective employees if they have any relatives within their company before onboarding . Many will never allow someone's family member to report directly to them .

Companies obviously understand why people wanna help their families , but they have to protect the reputation of their business.

It's business . The goal is to maintain a high standard of ethics and fairness . This was a case involving serious allegations of sexual misconduct . 

I actually agree with u that there's nothing "wrong" with Chris helping his brother with CNN connections.

But as for business , it's a bad look. And I can see why CNN is quick to let everyone know they're taking this seriously.

I 100% see both sides

CNN didn't have a problem with Andrew and Chris hee hawing on his show all over their network last year.

I always thought that was a conflict of interest, but I guess they didn't mind cause the ratings were good.

nepotism has nothing to do with this. those policies are in regard to people helping their families WITHIN a company. not outside situations. and its not a matter of thinking emotionally, imo.

but we can agree to disagree.
