MSNBC on Monday solidified its prime-time lineup by appointing Alex Wagner to fill Rachel Maddow's time slot four nights a week, Tuesday through Friday. Wagner, who has worked at CBS News, as a co-host of Showtime's “The Circus” and as an editor at The Atlantic, is on her second stint at MSNBC. She rejoined MSNBC in February after hosting a show on the network a decade ago.

It's an important move for the liberal-leaning news network and its president, Rashida Jones. Maddow has been MSNBC's most popular personality, and her decision earlier this year to step back from a weeknight show that was a linchpin of the network's schedule was a blow.

A first-generation Asian American whose mother emigrated to the U.S. from Myanmar, Wagner wrote a book about her experiences, “FutureFace: A Family Mystery, an Epic Quest and the Secret to Belonging.”,Besides The Atlantic, she has also been an economics reporter for HuffPost and White House correspondent for AOL's Politics Daily. She was editor-in-chief of The Fader, a culture-oriented magazine, and was executive director of an advocacy organization that aimed to stop mass atrocities.

Wagner's new show will premiere Aug. 16. A continued rotation of anchors will fill in at the 9 p.m. hour until then. Meanwhile, CNN is still looking to fill its 9 p.m. Eastern time slot on a regular basis following the firing of Chris Cuomo.

Talk show host Sunny Hostin found herself in hot water after she made some comments during Friday’s broadcast of The View. Hostin said that “Black Republicans” are an “oxymoron.”,During one of the show's segments, Hostin, along with co-host Ana Navarro and guest co-host Lindsey Granger, discussed Karine Jean-Pierre and her relationship with CNN journalist Suzanne Malveaux. The debate shifted to a discussion of Fox News host Sean Hannity. Towards the end of the segment, Navarro defended her network before accusing guest-host Lindsey Granger of being a Trump supporter.

But I do say that I have many conservative values that I will talk to you about.”,Hostin interjected, asking Granger whether she identifies as a Republican. “Yes,” Granger replied, who then turned back to Navarro in the hopes of further debating CNN’s ethical issues with former anchor Chris Cuomo and his ex-governor brother. “That’s an oxymoron—a Black Republican,” Hostin huffed. “You feel like it’s an oxymoron? Why? Your friend right here is a Republican,” Granger retorted, motioning towards Navarro. “You say you feel like it’s an oxymoron that you’re a Catholic but you’re also pro-life.”,Have I ever said I was a supporter of Trump?

NEW YORK (AP) — MSNBC's Rachel Maddow returned to the air Monday with some bad news for her fans: Starting next month, she will be doing her prime-time show only once a week.After working her customary five nights a week for the rest of April, Maddow said, she will work on Monday nights only starting in May. The network said it will rotate guest hosts the other four weeknights on a show called “MSNBC Prime.”“For big news events, for things like the leadup to the election, I will of course be here more than that, but that is the general plan,” Maddow said on her show Monday.The cable news network's most popular personality had been on hiatus for the past two months, working on a new podcast and a movie adaptation of her book “Bag Man.” She said the weekly schedule will give her “more time to work on some of this other stuff I've got cooking for MSNBC and NBC.”She heaped praise on Ali Velshi, who had filled in frequently for her while she was away, calling him a “prince among men.”Yet MSNBC's ratings in her time slot tumbled in her absence, even with coverage of a gripping news event, the Ukraine war. MSNBC is not alone in questions about its 9 p.m. Eastern hour: CNN hasn't named a full-time replacement for its former ratings leader, Chris Cuomo, since he was fired in December.The plan leaves MSNBC executives in an awkward spot. While it has been reported that MSNBC signed a new contract with Maddow that gives her additional flexibility, executives have not publicly addressed that deal, or Maddow's announcement Monday. It seems, at least for the time being, the network will be happy to get as much as it can from Maddow and leave the light on if she someday decides to do more.Maddow said she had originally thought she might need another hiatus from her show this year but has determined that she won't.

Andrew Cuomo, who resigned as New York Governor amid sexual harassment allegations last year, said that he is open to running again. The New York gubernatorial election will take place on November 8, 2022. ,In a campaign-style speech Thursday in Bronx, Cuomo slammed other Democrats for their 'radical' positions, further adding that they perpetuate cancel culture. It was his second public appearance since resigning last summer. ,Also read: Chris Cuomo demands $125 million for 'unlawful' CNN firing,“There are people who wanted to run against me. They wanted my job. And they used this opportunity to help themselves politically,” he said. Asked after his speech if he would run for office, Cuomo told reporters he is “open to all options.”,He wouldn't say whether he was thinking about challenging Governor Kathy Hochul, his former lieutenant governor and successor. ,Also read: Russia responds to sanctions, bans transfer of imported tech, goods till 2023,“I know how to get on the ballot, I did it a couple times. The election isn’t until November. So there’s a lot of time to gather petitions, depending on how you want to run, Cuomo told reporters. ,Cuomo resigned from office in August after multiple women accused him of sexual harassment. He denied allegations he touched women inappropriately, including a charge by one aide that he groped her breast, and claimed his accusers had misconstrued comments he'd intended to be friendly banter. Also read: Europe will not attempt Mars mission this year, due to war in Ukraine,The former New York Governor's 'cancel culture' remark came as his brother CNN host Chris Cuomo was fired for allegedly helping him in the sexual harrassment case. ,Chris Cuomo was ousted in December after a report from James' office showed how the journalist advised his brother to fight the harassment allegations. Cuomo, who had long planned to run for a fourth term in 2022, reported $16 million still in his campaign fundraising account in January, giving him an ample start to mount a campaign. That includes potentially gathering signatures from voters. Speaking to his Bronx audience Thursday, Cuomo made it clear that, whether he runs or not, he has no intention of quitting the public stage. “I am not going anywhere. I am going to continue to fight the good fight,” he said.

Chris Cuomo wants an arbitrator to award him $125 million for his firing from CNN, alleging his bosses knew full well how he advised his brother, former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, and suggested they did the same themselves. His filing seeking arbitration on Wednesday exposed more ugliness at the network, where Cuomo, CNN chief Jeff Zucker and his top deputy, Allison Gollust, have all been ousted in the past three months. Zucker fired Cuomo, host of the network's most popular prime time show, in December after a New York Attorney General's report publicly revealed new details about how he helped his brother strategize to fight sexual harassment allegations. It should be obvious by now that Chris Cuomo did not lie to CNN about helping his brother, said his lawyer, Bryan Freedman. In fact, as the limited information released from Warner Media's investigation makes clear, CNN's highest-level executives not only knew about Chris' involvement in helping his brother but also actively assisted the governor, both through Chris and directly themselves. Also Read: Chris Cuomo clears air about part in ex-NY governor's sexual harassment case,There was no comment Wednesday from a representative for Zucker and Gollust. The spokeswoman, Risa Heller, has denied in the past that Gollust, a former press aide to Gov. Cuomo, offered advice or counsel to the governor while she worked at CNN. CNN declined comment on the filing. Also Read: After Cuomo, Griffin, another ex-CNN staffer accused of sexual misconduct,During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, Chris Cuomo interviewed his big brother on CNN nine times — a temporary lift of the network's policy that Chris Cuomo not participate in stories concerning the governor. In his filing Wednesday, Chris Cuomo said CNN leadership demanded the interviews even though he and his brother had expressed reservations about them. He said that Zucker and Gollust tried to strengthen the network's ties to his brother and pushed the New York governor not to appear on other networks. He said they requested the governor hold his daily briefings at a time CNN's ratings needed a boost. Network standards were changed in a calculated decision to boost ratings, Freedman said. When those practices were called into question, Chris was made the scapegoat. Cuomo also dragged two former colleagues into his complaint, saying Don Lemon and Jake Tapper were never disciplined for incidents seen as ethical lapses — Lemon texting Jussie Smollett when the actor was accused of making false allegations of a racist attack, and Tapper allegedly offering advice to a politician. Networks standards were a moving target, modified as Zucker and Gollust saw fit, the former Cuomo Prime Time host said in the complaint. With his journalistic integrity unjustifiably smeared, Cuomo will find it difficult to find work in his field in the future and seeks damages of $125 million, the complaint said. Zucker resigned under pressure earlier this year after it was revealed he violated corporate practices by not disclosing his romance with Gollust. She was forced out shortly thereafter.

CNN Executive Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer Allison Gollust resigned on Tuesday after an internal probe found her in violation of company policies. This comes nearly two weeks after the network's former president Jeff Zucker stepped down from his post for not disclosing his relationship with Gollust. Gollust's resignation came after an internal investigation concluded that she had been in violation of CNN's workplace policies, reported Reuters, citing a memo circulated internally by WarnerMedia CEO Jason Kilar. Also read | CNN exec Jeff Zucker's ouster shows peril of hiding work romance,Based on interviews of more than 40 individuals and a review of over 100,000 texts and emails, the investigation found violations of Company policies, including CNN's News Standards and Practices, by Jeff Zucker, Allison Gollust, and Chris Cuomo, Kilar told CNN employees in the memo. I realize this news is troubling, disappointing, and frankly, painful to read. These are valid feelings many of you have. We have the highest standards of journalistic integrity at CNN, and those rules must apply to everyone equally. Given the information provided to me in the investigation, I strongly believe we have taken the right actions and the right decisions have been made, Kilar added. Also read | Virginia Deputy Attorney General resigns over Facebook posts on Jan 6 riots,Gollust, for her part, released her own statement following her resignation on Tuesday night, accusing the WarnerMedia group of trying to change the narrative about its own internal misgivings. WarnerMedia's statement tonight is an attempt to retaliate against me and change the media narrative in the wake of their disastrous handling of the last two weeks. It is deeply disappointing that after spending the past nine years defending and upholding CNN's highest standards of journalistic integrity, I would be treated this way as I leave. But I do so with my head held high, knowing that I gave my heart and soul to working with the finest journalists in the world, the 49-year-old said in her statement. Also read | Chris Cuomo clears air about part in ex-NY governor's sexual harassment case,Gollust's resignation is the latest in a slew of resignations or dismissals from CNN. Chris Cuomo, the network's prime-time anchor and brother of former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, was fired from CNN in December last year for his attempts to help his embattled brother, who was accused of multiple counts of sexual harassment. Chris himself was accused of sexual harassment too. After Chris Cuomo's conduct came to light, several others, including former CNN producers Rick Saleeby and John Griffin were investigated or indicted for sexual harassment and/or misconduct. ,This was followed by Jeff Zucker's resignation for not disclosing a consensual workplace relationship, and the list now also includes Gollust.

Chris Cuomo has so far been unspecific about his involvement in his brother and former New York governor, Andrew Cuomo's sexual harassment case. However, now reports have confirmed that Chris spoke to his brother prior to the latter's resignation but wasn't acting in an official capacity at the time. ,The New York Attorney General Letitia James' office released footage that shows Chris admitting to advising his brother while suggesting how he should tackle the increasing number of sexual harassment claims against him. ,Cuomo can be seen justifying his stance, in the video, saying, It wasn’t this tactical, what do you do, what do you not do. If you ask me a question, I will give you an answer. You want my take on how something is playing, I’ll tell you. But I’m not part of his team and I wasn’t part of manipulation of any kind. For me, it was the way you would probably talk to your siblings. It was very important to me that my brother not suggest that everything that happened was OK just because he meant it in a benign way, that that’s not how it works. ,The besieged CNN journalist also added that he'd advised his brother after a set of allegations, saying the following, Tell the truth and you tell it now. And I remember other people being more deliberative about it. ,Also Read | Why does former New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio not want to run for governor?,Further footage from the deposition shows how Chris leveraged his position in CNN to gather information about stories that were in the pipeline. Particularly, Chris used his resources to get the news on a Ronan Farrow story in the works, and about one of Andrew's accusers. He'd also asked Melissa DeRosa, one of the governor's top aides, to help respond to the allegations. ,Video of the deposition also shows Chris admitting that he spoke regularly to his brother and his staff about how the then-governor was handling New York City's COVID-19 situation. There's also a mention of Alec Baldwin wanting to come on and do a segment on 'cancel culture' as a response to the accusations Andrew faced. ,Andrew Cuomo resigned in August 2021, and Chris was axed from his CNN position due to his involvement.

Fairfax, VA, USA

Police in Fairfax County, Virginia, have launched a criminal investigation into former CNN producer Rick Saleeby, who stands accused of sexual misconduct involving potential juvenile victims. The Fairfax County Police told Fox News that the investigation was launched on account of serious allegations involving potential juvenile victims and that detectives assigned to the Child Exploitation Squad of the Major Crimes Bureau are leading this investigation. Reportedly, the investigation appears to be related to a report by conservative media outlet Project Veritas that alleged that Saleeby had solicited nudes from a 15-year-old girl, and the police confirmed to Fox News that they had been in touch with the media outlet. Also read | Ghislaine Maxwell convicted for sex trafficking, is Prince Andrew next?,Speaking to media about the development, Matt Dornic, the head of strategic communication for CNN, said that Saleeby, the former senior producer for Jake Tapper's show 'The Lead', had resigned weeks earlier from the network. The investigation into Saleeby comes on the back of the indictment of former CNN producer John Griffin for his attempts to induce minors to engage in unlawful sexual activity. The 44-year-old, who was indicted by a federal grand jury in Vermont earlier in December, had allegedly attempted to lure at least four underage girls into coming to his Vermont home for lessons on spanking and c**k worship. According to court documents, Griffin also allegedly told the underage girls that a woman is a woman regardless of her age. While Griffin has pleaded not guilty to the charges, he faces a potential sentence of 10 years to life imprisonment if convicted. Griffin, who was fired by CNN immediately after his arrest, had earlier claimed that he was close to former CNN lead anchor Chris Cuomo, who too was fired by the network in early December for reasons related to sexual misconduct. Also read | Former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo escapes two sexual assault charges,Following sexual harassment allegations against Chris' elder brother, former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, CNN fired the anchor for his attempts to aid the defence of his brother. Around the same time, Chris was accused of sexual misconduct too, but the nature of the allegation has not been disclosed yet. Earlier in September, Chris' former ABC News colleague Shelley Ross alleged that he had groped her at a party in 2005, and the former CNN anchor had then told the media, I apologized to her then, and I meant it.

A new allegation of sexual harassment against Chris Cuomo emerged just days before CNN announced it was firing the anchor amid an investigation into work he did defending his brother from similar harassment allegations.

Katz said the accuser decided to come forward came after the New York attorney general's office released evidence showing Cuomo had taken a much more active role than previously thought in strategizing and helping to craft a response to the allegations his brother was facing.

CNN was reviewing Chris Cuomo's conduct following the new information, and a law firm hired to help had recommended the network terminate Chris Cuomo. “It goes without saying that these decisions are not easy, and there are a lot of complex factors involved,” CNN chief Jeff Zucker wrote in an email to CNN staff on Saturday.

CNN fires ex-NY governor Andrew Cuomo's brother over role in sex scandal

Priyadarshni Bishnoi

After new documents revealed the cosy and improper nature of his relationship with aides to his brother, former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, CNN has suspended prime time anchor Chris Cuomo indefinitely, pending further evaluation. ,In Cuomo's absence, a second hour of Anderson Cooper 360 will air on Tuesday night. ,The suspension's announcement on Tuesday sent a shockwave through cable news. CNN's most-watched hour of the day is usually Cuomo's 9 pm show. Despite a flurry of sexual assault allegations against his brother, which culminated in the governor's resignation three months ago, he was determined to stay on TV this year. Also Read | New York Governor compared me to her ex-girlfriends: Former aide,However, new documents released on Monday revealed that the veteran journalist was far more involved in defining his brother's defence than previously thought. The New York Attorney General's office released transcripts and exhibits Monday that shed new light on Chris Cuomo's involvement in his brother's defense, a CNN spokesperson said Tuesday evening. The documents, which we were not privy to before their public release, raise serious questions. When Chris admitted to us that he had offered advice to his brother's staff, he broke our rules and we acknowledged that publicly, the spokesperson continued. But we also appreciated the unique position he was in and understood his need to put family first and job second. However, these documents point to a greater level of involvement in his brother's efforts than we previously knew, the spokesperson added. As a result, we have suspended Chris indefinitely, pending further evaluation. Chris Cuomo was suspended after a barrage of criticism from those who claimed he had broken widely accepted journalistic norms. Employees at CNN expressed their displeasure with the anchor's behaviour. Charlotte Bennett, a former aide to Andrew Cuomo who accused him of sexual harassment in February, demanded that CNN immediately take action. Anything short of firing Chris Cuomo reflects a network lacking both morals and a backbone, Bennett said in a tweet Tuesday. ,According to a CNN source familiar with the situation, the Cuomo Prime Time team had been planning for Tuesday's broadcast up until Chris Cuomo's suspension was announced. Cooper's team was also caught off guard by the news, and they were forced to scramble to fill the extra hour. ,After the news broke, an emotional Chris Cuomo met with the cast and crew of the show. ,Text messages and transcripts of interviews with investigators who led the probe into allegations against the governor were among the documents released by New York Attorney General Letitia James. ,Text messages between Chris Cuomo and Melissa DeRosa, a top aide to Gov. Andrew Cuomo at the time, were found in the cache of documents, and they suggested he was instrumental in helping to craft a defence against a flood of sexual misconduct allegations. The text messages also confirmed that Chris Cuomo attempted to use his press connections to assist the then-team governor's in preparing as accusers began to make their stories public. ,He further admitted to investigators that he tried to learn more about journalist Ronan Farrow's story. The anchor defended the practise, claiming that it was standard. The idea of one reporter calling another to find out about what's coming down the pipe is completely business-as-usual, he said. The Cuomo Prime Time anchor also said on the air in August, I never attacked nor encouraged anyone to attack any woman who came forward. I never made calls to the press about my brother's situation. Monday's revelations cast some doubt on his statement about his interactions with the press. I would -- when asked, I would reach out to sources, other journalists, to see if they had heard of anybody else coming out, Chris Cuomo said during testimony. Chris Cuomo also said under oath what he told CNN viewers earlier this year: That he never influenced or attempted to control CNN's coverage of my family. During the questioning, he reiterated that sentiment, saying, If I had tried to influence any of the reporting at CNN or anywhere else, I guarantee you people would know, and so would a lot of others. In its May statement, CNN had said, Chris has not been involved in CNN's extensive coverage of the allegations against Governor Cuomo — on air or behind the scenes. The network's statement added, In part because, as he has said on his show, he could never be objective. But also because he often serves as a sounding board for his brother. However, it was inappropriate to engage in conversations that included members of the Governor's staff, which Chris acknowledges. He will not participate in such conversations going forward. The anchor at the time also took to his show to say that he is family first and job second and apologized for how he helped his brother. It will not happen again. It was a mistake, because I put my colleagues here, who I believe are the best in the business, in a bad spot, he said. I never intended for that I would never intend for that and I am sorry for that. While a report on the sexual misconduct allegations against Andrew Cuomo was released in August, James' office continues with a separate investigation into allegations he misused state resources for the development, production and promotion of a book he wrote on the pandemic. Rich Azzopardi, a spokesman for Andrew Cuomo, called the latest release of transcripts, documents and videos a manipulated release. New Yorkers are no one's fool and James and her colleagues' obvious misuse of government resources to damage political opponents is as obvious and repugnant as it is unethical and illegal, Azzopardi said in a statement.

Chris Cuomo, brother of New York Governor and CNN’s top anchor, lashed out on United States’ lack of action on introducing legislation to curb the alleged police brutality and increase accountability on Friday. He claimed, on his show, that reforms in the country will only gain momentum after “white people’s kids” start becoming the victims of such incidents. . Also Read: Probe ordered after US police pepper-spray Black soldier. The on-air rant was targeted towards those who have been defending the police on incidents like the killing of Daunte Wright in Minnesota and 13-year-old Adam Toledo in Chicago. The 50-year-old anchor, speaking in rage, questioned, “Shootings? Gun laws? Access to weapons? Your kids start getting killed, white people’s kids start getting killed?" . The cases of Daunte Wright and Adam Toledo, which have triggered a series of protests across the US demanding legislative action, have highlighted the unaccountability of the law enforcement authorities and its implications. . Also Read: Minnesota police allegedly impede journalists covering protests despite court order. Racial profiling in the US has witnessed a spike in the past few months. However, people who stand for such reforms seem to have latched onto their hopes as the trial of former officer Derek Chauvin, who is accused for the murder of George Floyd, is underway. . #PoliceBrutality #ChrisCuomo #DaunteWright #AdamToledo #UnitedStates .
