New York's attorney general confirmed that the CNN host was part of a team that helped Gov. Andrew Cuomo respond to harassment allegations, and that Chris Cuomo helped craft a statement for his brother denying the claims.
The AG report confirmed that the CNN host participated in strategy discussions with members of the Governor’s staff, as well as outside advisors, adding that Chris Cuomo “counseled him to express contrition” after an executive assistant publicly accused the Governor of harassment.
The CNN host testified for the investigation, telling the investigators that “there was discussion about remedial measures the Chamber should take in light of the sexual harassment allegations, but some people had taken the position that ‘they should just wait.’” According to an appendix in the AG’s report that included emails from Chris Cuomo, it appears the CNN host helped craft Gov. Cuomo’s February 28 statement responding to harassment claims by the former executive assistant. The statement would receive significant media coverage, including on CNN.
The report also said that Governor Cuomo’s team of outside advisors “were regularly provided with confidential and often privileged information about state operations and helped make decisions that impacted State business and employees—all without any formal role, duty, or obligation to the State.” CNN suggested that it will take no new action after the investigation was released.
