Although some at CNN are heralding CNN president Jeff Zucker as a “war time” president, striking a “good balance between keeping us working and moving forward, and making sure people are physically and mentally healthy,” others are not quite as pleased with how he handled the end of CNN anchor Chris Cuomo’s battle with coronavirus.
In a report for the Hollywood Reporter, two individuals spoke about how they felt about Cuomo’s grand (and mainly faked) unveiling from his basement.
One blasted it as “reality TV.”
“[Cuomo] coming out of the quarantine with the cameras there, that’s all Jeff Zucker reality TV and that screams Zucker,” the individual told THR.
The other CNN employee agreed, saying eyebrows were raised when Cuomo appeared at his brother’s press conference earlier in his coronavirus battle. “More people said, ‘OK, we may be going too far.'”Follow @CommentaryCNN
