Chris Cuomo Announces Departure From SiriusXM Radio Show After CNN Firing
Huff PostFormer CNN anchor Chris Cuomo announced Monday on Twitter that he will be departing from his SiriusXM radio show, “Let’s Get After It.” Cuomo, who was fired from CNN on Saturday, said the way his tenure at the network ended was “hard,” and that the past week has been “extraordinarily difficult” for his family. “Following Chris Cuomo’s statement that he is leaving his SiriusXM show, Let’s Get After It will no longer air,” a spokesperson said, according to The Hollywood Reporter. “We thank Chris for his work at SiriusXM.” Cuomo was fired from CNN after it was revealed he’d helped his brother Andrew Cuomo, who stepped down as governor of New York in August, respond to sexual harassment allegations. According to documents from New York Attorney General Letitia James’ investigation into the former governor, Chris Cuomo used some of his journalism connections to gain information about stories on Andrew that were being reported.
