'''Jeff Zucker''' (born April 9, 1965) is the former president of [[CNN]]. On February 2, 2022, Zucker's departure from CNN was announced. CNN insider [[Brian Steleter]] observed "there’s two layers I would add to that. Number one is the [[Chris Cuomo]] reference. He’s not going out quietly. There were reports he was going to get paid the millions of dollars on the remainder of his contract. As a source said earlier today, he was trying to burn the place down. He was going to court trying to burn the place down and claiming he had incriminating information. If this is the case, this is a domino effect that begins with [[Andrew Cuomo]] and Chris Cuomo being fired. That’s a remarkable domino event I think that’s part of the story."<ref>https://www.foxnews.com/media/cnn-brian-stelter-jeff-zucker-chris-cuomo-trying-burn-place-down</ref>
