CNN propagandist in hot water after text messages revealed he used media sources to dig up dirt on Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s sexual harassment accusers
'This stuff would be a fireable offense in most newsrooms.' Update: CNN Suspends Chris Cuomo ‘Indefinitely’ For Snooping on Brother Andrew’s Sex Harassment Accusers
Leftist colleagues of CNN’s Chris Cuomo are urging his network to fire him after revelations he used his media sources to dig up dirt on women lodging sexual harassment allegations against his brother, former NY Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D).
On Monday, text messages revealed by the New York Attorney General’s office showed Chris closely coordinated with his brother’s top aide Melissa DeRosa during the scandal, working to help steer his brother’s defense by drafting statements and gaining intel on the various accusers.
While Cuomo had previously admitted he helped his brother in the past, the scope of his involvement in the scandal was not known.
Disclosures of the network anchor’s seedy behind-the-scenes antics prompted fellow reporters to complain that Cuomo’s unethical actions deserved an ouster from CNN.
The left-leaning Rolling Stone magazine ran a headline Monday bluntly titled, “Chris Cuomo Caught Doing Something That Would Get Any Other Journalist Fired.”
“If this story is accurate, it describes a series of shocking ethical breaches — fireable offenses at any other news outlet,” tweeted Rolling Stone editor-in-chief Noah Schachtman.

The sentiment was echoed by other lefty MSM journos.
“This is a massive ethical breach. If you work at a news agency like I do, we do, you understand there are just basic things like if you found out that an intern did this they’d be gone a second after these text messages came in. This is an abuse of power,” said New York Times columnist Jane Coaston during an appearance on The View.
“The only reason that Chris Cuomo was able to do any of this, get sources on some of his accusers… you see in these text messages how it is not just Chris Cuomo, to be clear. You see people talking about these accusers like they are just nuisances,” she added.
Independent reporter Andrew Feinberg commented the breach of journalistic ethics “would be a fireable offense in most newsrooms.”

Even The Atlantic came for Cuomo knives out.
The CNN anchor mixed his roles as brother and broadcaster. He should go, @GrahamDavidA writes. https://t.co/29u4MoF2jy

Plenty other leftist media colleagues also threw Cuomo under the bus:
"CNN host @ChrisCuomo used his media sources to find out info on brother Andrew’s accusers, records show"
This is deeply unethical.https://t.co/ZDodcKxWwE

Wow. CNBC reporting CNN anchor Chris Cuomo used his media sources to get information on women accusing his brother, then-NY governor, of harassment. https://t.co/PWnu6w7foe

Not only is @ChrisCuomo on for his regular time slot on @CNN but he’s bantering about Tony Bennett with @andersoncooper
Cuomo was implicated ( again ) in newly released transcripts helping his brother @andrewcuomo discredit women who accused the former Governor of harassment.

“There are good people who work at @CNN,” tweeted former The View co-host Meghan McCain. “What the network is doing to so many hardworking people by continuing to employ @ChrisCuomo is nothing short of ethical malpractice.”
“He is a disgrace to journalism and a national embarrassment who tarnishes every SINGLE person at @CNN.”

“Just to be clear, if anyone else on CNN’s roster did this, they’d not only be fired but blacklisted from journalism period,” tweeted MSNBC columnist Eric M. Garcia.

Texts showed Chris Cuomo extensively communicated with DeRosa, including asking her to “Please let me help with the prep.”
Days after an NYT report on accuser Anna Ruch who claimed Gov. Cuomo attempted to kiss her at a wedding, Cuomo texted DeRosa, “I have a lead on the wedding girl.”
DeRosa also checked in with Chris about journalist Ronan Farrow’s investigation into the scandal, asking if he had “any more intel” into his line of inquiry.
Sticking up for his colleague, CNN’s Reliable Sources host Brian Stelter tweeted Chris at least stuck by his word not to address the matter on TV.
For what it’s worth, when Chris Cuomo addressed his actions on the air back in August, he said “this will be my final word on it,” and he hasn’t addressed the matter on TV since. https://t.co/rbaxBMNOhn

Meanwhile, CNN released a statement Monday indicating they’re looking into the revelations and “seeking additional clarity about their significance as they relate to CNN over the next several days.”
