Chris Cuomo had a meltdown during his SirusXM radio show.
Cuomo really let loose, Calling CNN “ridiculous” and saying he didn’t want to spend his life doing something he didn’t believe in.
He also went on to say that he didn’t need the money. He already said that he’s saved enough money.

It was a wild rant and many thought his days at CNN were numbered.
I guess he thought the same thing too because now he’s back-peddling all over the place, claiming he didn’t mean what he said and that he “loves CNN.”
On his radio show on Tuesday, CNN host Chris Cuomo clarified comments he made on Monday about his work as a cable news host.
“Coronavirus-stricken Chris Cuomo trashes CNN gig during radio show meltdown,” the New York Post wrote on Monday night, after Cuomo told viewers, “I don’t like what I do professionally. I don’t think it’s worth my time.”
“It’s not true,” Cuomo said on Tuesday. “I never said it. I never meant it.”
[…]
“I have never been in a better position, professionally, than I am in right now,” he told viewers. “They’ve been so good. They’ve been so supportive of me in ways I could never have imagined. … I’ve never had a group of people professionally care about me the way they have shown. I’ll never be able to repay them, but I’ll try hard to do so. I’ve never been more grateful. I’ve never been on a better team.”
Cuomo revealed to viewers that he recently signed a “long-term” contract extension, before the spread of the coronavirus.
“I love where I am, I love the position that I’ve been given, and I love who I’m doing it with. Those are all matters of fact for me,” he said. “No place has ever been better to me. No place has ever given me the opportunities that [CNN president] Jeff Zucker has.” [Hollywood Reporter]
Well, that was a very short epiphany Cuomo had.
Maybe Chris checked his bank account and realized he didn’t have that much saved after all.
