Chris Cuomo’s former boss at ABC claims he sexually harassed her

Like brother like brother
I was Chris Cuomo’s boss at ABC News nearly two decades ago, and I am a regular viewer of CNN today, so I’ve long watched how he communicates on camera and witnessed at times how he behaved behind the scenes. This year, as he escaped accountability for advising former Gov. Andrew Cuomo during his sexual harassment scandal, two moments crystallized for me how Mr. Cuomo performs.
Yes, it was written by the woman accusing him of sexually harassing him.
“Now that I think of it … I am ashamed,” read the subject line of a 2005 email Mr. Cuomo wrote me, one hour after he sexually harassed me at a going-away party for an ABC colleague. At the time, I was the executive producer of an ABC entertainment special, but I was Mr. Cuomo’s executive producer at “Primetime Live” just before that. I was at the party with my husband, who sat behind me on an ottoman sipping his Diet Coke as I spoke with work friends. When Mr. Cuomo entered the Upper West Side bar, he walked toward me and greeted me with a strong bear hug while lowering one hand to firmly grab and squeeze the cheek of my buttock.
“I can do this now that you’re no longer my boss,” he said to me with a kind of cocky arrogance. “No you can’t,” I said, pushing him off me at the chest while stepping back, revealing my husband, who had seen the entire episode at close range. We quickly left.

That sounds odd, but you actually can be guilty of harassing your supervisor.
I had to take sexual harassment training once because I got promoted to manager. Most of it was obvious but that surprised me - I assumed if a subordinate said/did something inappropriate to me I could just write them up.

Is there a single lib alive that doesnt think they are better than everyone else and that the law doesnt apply to them?

Sorry to read her husband is a giant pussy who would allow that to happen and just walk out.

Should be mandatory reporting.

Odds are she didn't think it was sexual harassment; she enjoyed it.

Fredo would have been beaten with a barstool.

Of course. Too much hate in this world and I honestly hate years later accusations, no matter who it’s from. Make a law to mandatory report and it would solve a lot of issues. It would also stop there weirdos from doing to others and making more victims.

#metoo his arse. The Cuomo clowns would jump at the first chance to virtue signal about women's rights. Let them eat crow.

You're using common sense; don't do that

Cuomo, translated in goomba means rapey, or extra rapey.

What a complete garbage family. Trash. Perfect for CNN and their programming downloaders.

That is quite sad. This would have been the last thing Cuomo would have seen:

Yep. We could have used her voice when it really mattered.

It’s ok.
It’s just because he’s Italian.

If she was his supervisor, she should have fired him on the spot in front of everyone.
