This time around, the decision and confession came after he was asked about a “consensual relationship with my closest colleague” as part of the investigation into former CNN anchor, Chris Cuomo.

According to the email which was tweeted by CNN media correspondent, Brian Stelter:  “I acknowledged the relationship evolved in recent years,” Zucker said. “I was required to disclose it when it began but I didn’t. I was wrong. As a result, I am resigning today.”

“I came to CNN on January 28, 2013. Together, we had nine great years. I certainly wish my tenure here had ended differently. But it was an amazing run. And I loved every minute.” His resignation letter continued.”

Expressing gratitude for a time a well spent at CNN, he said: “I am grateful to the thousands of incredible talented CNN and Turner Sports employees who helped make this such a joy for me, and such a success for all of us.

Wishing his former team well, he concluded: ” I wish each of you nothing but the best in the years ahead…with gratitude and much love. Jeff.”

Note that Zucker did not name the colleague in question in the memo, but the grapevine has it that the relationship is with Allison Gollust, the Chief Marketing Officer, CNN.

Jeff Zucker recorded all round success in his career pursuit at CNN. Indeed, he was the brain behind many firsts in CNN especially the new push into digital subscriptions, among many other outstanding feats.
