Chris Cuomo is demanding CNN pay him $125 million in damages after his firing

Deadline

“As a result of Turner’s indefensible choice to unceremoniously fire him, Cuomo has been damaged in countless ways,” Cuomo's attorneys wrote in their first arbitration filing, adding: “Cuomo has had his journalistic integrity unjustifiably smeared, making it difficult if not impossible for Cuomo to find similar work in the future and damaging him in amounts exceeding $125 million, which includes not only the remaining salary owed under the Agreement, but future wages lost as a result of CNN’s efforts to destroy his reputation in violation of the Agreement." Cuomo was fired in December following a sexual misconduct allegation amid his suspension for helping his brother, Gov. Andrew Cuomo, battle a sexual misconduct scandal.
