Is Fredo Really Going On One Last Fishing Trip?

Tater floated the very real possibility that Fredo would be back by the first or second week of January.

That sounds right to me. As I keep saying, the minute CNN fires him, MSNBC hires him to take over the 9pm slot for the departing Queen of Lies Rachel Maddow, who will end her daily show sometime in spring 2022.

But the New York Post hears from CNN insiders that Fredo might have banged his last waitresses two-at-a-time at the Copa.

CNN president Jeff Zucker hit the roof when he saw evidence showing that Chris Cuomo used his journalistic connections to try to help his brother beat the sexual harassment scandal that forced him to resign as governor, The Post has learned.

“It was the straw that broke the camel’s back,” one CNN insider said Wednesday.

“Zucker loved Chris, but the e-mails and texts did it.”

Another CNN source said of Cuomo, “His biggest crime was he lied to Zucker.”

“He didn’t own up to it,” the source said.

“There’s nothing worse than an e-mail or text. It’s in writing.”

...

"I don't see how he survives this," a third source said of Chris Cuomo.

"The buzz inside CNN is it's over."

Meanwhile, all the other leftwing rats are scrambling for position in this dreary Game of Thrones (of Lies).

One source said Tapper -- who publicly blasted Chris Cuomo's ethics in May, after The Washington Post revealed he took part in strategy sessions with his brother's aides and advisers -- appeared to be gunning for the gig.

Of course the rat-faced ratfvcker is wheedling and whining for the job. He stinks of careerist Yuppie ambition and always has.

CNN's Don Lemon, who hosts the 10 p.m. show that follows "Cuomo Prime Time" is also considered a top contender, sources said, with one adding that chief media correspondent Brian Stelter "wants the job."

That's adorable.

I alluded to a top stakeholder in the new owner of CNN wanting to get back to real journalism before, but here's the actual quote:

"I would like to see CNN evolve back to the kind of journalism that it started with, and actually have journalists, which would be unique and refreshing," said the head of Liberty Media, which has a significant stake in the Warners-Discovery conglomerate.
