Dear @ChrisCuomo,
Your brother is a criminal. And he was about to be impeached. That’s why he resigned. I think you should be next. https://t.co/6I6m3iFkHM— Janice Dean (@JaniceDean) November 30, 2021
CNN then declared information from the office of the New York attorney general provided “new light” into the extent of Cuomo’s involvement. The network next stated, for this reason, Cuomo is out. CNN furthermore confirmed that additional “evaluation” of the situation shall occur.
Will Cuomo make a comeback?
At this point in time, it is safe to assume Chris Cuomo will not make a return to CNN. Americans should count on a replacement coming soon.
The information released by the New York attorney general’s office shows him texting with Melissa DeRosa, a leading aide who worked for Andrew Cuomo.
Chris Cuomo previously told viewers that he wasn’t an adviser to his older brother, he was there to “listen and offer my take.”
But new texts show he was advising and running interference for the former governor.

In these messages, Chris Cuomo lets DeRosa know he has a “lead” on one of his brother’s accusers he referred to as “the wedding girl.”
DeRosa likewise asks Cuomo to use his media sources to investigate various matters surrounding accusations against the then-New York governor. Cuomo then agrees to do so.
