It appears that CNN media critic Brian Stelter is still attaching his horse to Jeff Zucker’s wagon.

In his newsletter, Stelter claims that SOME anger is directed at Zucker for not disclosing his romantic relationship with a CNN employee.

But, according to Stelter, most of the anger inside CNN is directed at fired CNN host Chris Cuomo.

Cuomo was fired from CNN for his lack, some would say, non-existent ethics as a Journalist.

Let’s unpack that for just a second.

First of all, Chris Cuomo has always been an ego-driven hot head and despite knowing that, Jeff Zucker hired him. Then has Cuomo continued to have major lapses in ethics, Zucker and Stelter continued to defend him.

It was only after another media outlet investigated Cuomo and his actions did Zucker fire Cuomo and it was only then that Stelter turned on Cuomo.

Maybe, as a media critic, if Brian Stelter would have looked deeper into the allegations against Cuomo, instead of defending his actions, it would not have festered as long and this could have been averted.

Chris Cuomo is an ass and he is only doing what is best for Chris Cuomo, but he is also telling the truth that many at CNN knew, but helped hide.

Did Brian Stelter know about Jeff Zucker and Allison Gollust?

I can’t say for sure, but since I have never been inside the CNN building and I live more than 1,500 miles away and I knew, how could Stelter have not known?

Also, imagine if you will that this was playing out at Fox News?

Do you think Stelter would be defending the President of the network and casting the blame mostly on others?

When former Fox News employee Gretchen Carlson turned on Roger Ailes, Stelter made her out to be a hero.

But, Chris Cuomo is a bad guy?

Maybe Jeff Zucker has big plans for his net gig and he has promised Brian Stelter that he will be part of those plans. Maybe that is the reason that Stelter is still trying to defend the fact that Jeff Zucker had an inappropriate relationship with a CNN staffer, hired the journalistically challenged Chris Cuomo and promoted him, tanked CNN ratings, and basically helped Donald Trump become President.

He is defending Jeff Zucker despite the fact that Zucker failed so dramatically in every way at CNN.

But, it should also be pointed out that Jeff Zucker took a kid with absolutely no TV news experience and a kid that had worked only one job at a newspaper and gave him a job at CNN.

The kid is Brian Stelter and it appears he is willing to fall on his sword for the guy that hired him, despite having no experience.
