More details emerged on Friday about the resignation of CNN’s former chief marketing officer Allison Gollust earlier this week following WarnerMedia’s investigation into ousted primetime host Chris Cuomo — including that she had interfered with news coverage of former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo and had misled investigators about the timeline of her romantic relationship with network president Jeff Zucker. Gollust passed along the Democratic governor’s preferred topics of discussion to CNN producers and reported back to him that his request was “Done,” according to several insiders familiar with the details of the investigation by CNN parent WarnerMedia. WarnerMedia determined that Gollust’s exchanges with Andrew Cuomo were inappropriate and became one key factor leading to Gollust’s forced resignation on Tuesday, the insiders said. Reps for CNN and Gollust did not immediately respond to TheWrap’s requests for comment.
