Photo: Kevin Mazur/Getty Images for WarnerMedia A former executive producer at ABC News has come forward accusing Chris Cuomo of sexually harassing her in 2005, just after she had left her job as the news anchor’s boss.
In a New York Times op-ed, Shelley Ross, who worked as the producer of Primetime in 2004 when Cuomo was a contributing correspondent, recalled an incident at a colleague’s going-away party at a New York bar. According to Ross’s account, Cuomo greeted her with a hug, during which he squeezed her behind and said, “I can do this now that you’re no longer my boss.” She writes that she pushed him away, saying, “No, you can’t,” at which point Cuomo saw that Ross’s husband had seen the encounter.
Perhaps the most unsettling part of Ross’ story is the email Cuomo decided to follow up with in which he apologized for his behavior first and foremost to Ross’s husband — which would seem to suggest a lot about how he views women. He also attempted to differentiate his behavior from Christian Slater, who had been arrested earlier that year for drunkenly groping a woman in the street.
Ross wrote that she didn’t see Cuomo’s actions as sexual, characterizing the incident as “a hostile act meant to diminish and belittle his female former boss in front of the staff.” Cuomo responded to a request for comment from the Times, saying, “As Shelley acknowledges, our interaction was not sexual in nature. It happened 16 years ago in a public setting when she was a top executive at ABC. I apologized to her then, and I meant it.
Nettaaaaaaaa It doesn't surprise me that Chris Cuomo squeezed this women's butt. Doesn't surprise me that he apologized immediately after. What surprised me is the 16 years later vitriol, the unseriousness of her complaint and that nytimes published it.
And his brother too
not socked since they cut from the same cloth
Runs in the family, eh?
Cuomo. Where have I heard that name before?
