Chris Cuomo Clarifies That He's Happy at CNN: "I Never Meant It"
The Hollywood Reporter ^ | 10:02 AM PDT 4/14/2020 | by Jeremy Barr

A day after saying "I don't like what I do professionally," the host notes he recently signed a new contract with the network. On his radio show on Tuesday, CNN host Chris Cuomo clarified comments he made on Monday about his work as a cable news host.

"Coronavirus-stricken Chris Cuomo trashes CNN gig during radio show meltdown," the New York Post wrote on Monday night, after Cuomo told viewers, "I don’t like what I do professionally. I don’t think it’s worth my time.”

"It's not true," Cuomo said on Tuesday. "I never said it. I never meant it."

Cuomo, who announced on March 31 that he'd contracted COVID-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus, praised the way the network has treated him.

"I have never been in a better position, professionally, than I am in right now," he told viewers. "They've been so good. They've been so supportive of me in ways I could never have imagined. ... I've never had a group of people professionally care about me the way they have shown. I'll never be able to repay them, but I'll try hard to do so. I've never been more grateful. I've never been on a better team."

Cuomo revealed to viewers that he recently signed a "long-term" contract extension, before the spread of the coronavirus.

"I love where I am, I love the position that I've been given, and I love who I'm doing it with. Those are all matters of fact for me," he said. "No place has ever been better to me. No place has ever given me the opportunities that [CNN president] Jeff Zucker has."

Clear thinking and honesty are short term side effects of the pill combination that he was taking.

Ah. Fredo signed a new contract with CNN.

Musta took a pay cut and ordered not to mix it up with the public.

“It’s not worth my time.” If he isn’t the most overcompensated-for-his-time guy in the world, he’s in the top ten.

We don’t like what you do either, Fredo. Maybe you should retire to the Hamptons and take up gardening. But then you’d probably end up poisoning the water table.

In this case, it’s probably both his brother and his agent.

Save your money Fredo. You are going to need it someday when a fat tired biker busts your NYC wise guy wanna be head wide open.

C’mon CC. Just admit you’d snorted a little too much Nose Sugar and you’d lost what little mind you had temporarily. Neither of your followers would blame you. It’s cool, bro.
