CNN said Saturday that anchor Chris Cuomo has been 'terminated' by the network, 'effective immediately.' 9News

The announcement came after an outside law firm was retained to review information about exactly how Cuomo aided his brother, formerCNN said in a statement: "Chris Cuomo was suspended earlier this week pending further evaluation of new information that came to light about his involvement with his brother's defense. We retained a respected law firm to conduct the review, and have terminated him, effective immediately.

The documents - released by New York Attorney General Letitia James after an investigation into the governor - showed that Chris Cuomo, while working as one of CNN's top anchors, was also effectively working as an unpaid aide to the governor. He pointed out that he never reported on the sexual harassment scandal or tried to interfere in CNN's coverage."I'm not an adviser. I'm a brother. I wasn't in control of anything. I was there to listen and offer my take," he said.

The dissent only intensified after James' office released the text messages, sworn testimony and other raw materials from her investigation into the ex-governor. He also said he never wanted to "compromise any of my colleagues" and said he would respect the process.
