NEW YORK — Veteran TV journalist Chris Cuomo is coming back to cable news with a new prime-time program on NewsNation starting in the fall, less than a year after his messy breakup with CNN.
Cuomo, 51, announced his new deal during an interview Tuesday with NewsNation host Dan Abrams. It was Cuomo’s first TV appearance since his firing from CNN in December after an eight-year stint.
The combative Cuomo was the most-watched personality on CNN before he was terminated over how he advised his brother, former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, on the handling of sexual harassment complaints brought against him. Andrew Cuomo eventually resigned over the allegations in August 2021.
