I had to laugh when I heard the President say that but I'm also curious as to the answer.

I think he invented the company he works for.

You haven’t given us the question Trump was answering. That might clear a few things up.

I think Trump was taking credit for the rise of Zucker. He made the Apprentice a household word and then Celebrity Apprentice. Zuker’s career could be said to be formed by the success of Trump. Now Zucker hates Trump.

I think you’re thinking of Zuckerburg. Zucker didn’t invent NBC.

CNN? Unnamed (other) network executive “Zucker is a case study in the most destructive media executive ever to exist” President Trump’s question is valid.

Apparently he is the head of CNN, a soon to be defunct cable network, and, you shouldn’t.

Jeff Zucker was an absolute disaster as head of NBC, but the worse he failed, the higher he was promoted. He was booted — with a $40 million payoff — from NBC in 2010. His wife works for Saturday Night Live and his son worked for Sen. Corey Booker.

There’s one born every minute, and two to take him.

Wasn't Jeff Zucker at the very center of the controversy that resulted in Conan O'Brien leaving The Tonight Show after only seven months as host? (Go read Bill Carter's book The War for Late Night: When Leno Went Early and Television Went Crazy. That book showed how Zucker botched the transition from Jay Leno to Conan O'Brien on The Tonight Show.)

And it appears Zucker is about to do the same thing at CNN. He's threatening to make even Left-leaning MSNBC look sane in comparison.

The scoop from Harvard is that hIs son has become a Republican apparently and his choice is driving Zucker nuts.

I’d guess that Zucker was servicing private parts of CNN bosses?
