When The New Yorker fired Reporter Ryan Lizza for "improper sexual conduct", CNN pulled Lizza from the appearing on their air. 

While Lizza is still fired from The New Yorker, CNN has let him return to making appearances on their network.  

The Hollywood Reporter writes that CNN claims they have conducted an extensive investigation into the matter. "Based on the information provided and the findings of the investigation, CNN has found no reason to continue to keep Mr. Lizza off the air," the network said in a statement.

Lizza has denied The New Yorker's allegations of sexual misconduct, saying in a statement that he was dismayed that the magazine had severed ties with him over what he called "a respectful relationship with a woman I dated." Lizza claimed that the magazine had not cited a company policy that he had violated upon his termination and that the decision was a "terrible mistake." 

Lizza appeared on Don Lemon's show last night.
