Kathy Griffin Talks About CNN President Jeff Zucker’s Punishing Her After Asking for Raise
What kind of world are we coming to when even the most liberal of liberals attacks the most liberal of liberals?
There certainly are several people who can fit that bill of being the most liberal of liberals but the two that I’m talking about here is Kathy Griffin and CNN president Jeff Zucker.
Kathy Griffin alleges that after asking Jeff Zucker for a raise while at CNN he refused. Not only did he refuse, but he actually cut her pay.
Fox News reported,
According to Griffin, Zucker “got very offended.”
“He started yelling at me and he literally said something like, ‘Who do you think you are calling here demanding a raise?’ And then something came over me. And I just lost it. I just started screaming. I’m Kathy [beep!] Griffin, Jeff, that’s who I am,” Griffin told the Times.
Griffin then said to Zucker, “I would really feel a lot more comfortable showing up if I got paid what I deserve,” which Zucker perceived as a threat to bail on the show. He then fired her through a call to Griffin’s lawyer.
According to the Times, “Griffin called Zucker again, begging him to take her back. Zucker rehired her, but she said he cut her pay by 20 percent.”
I can’t help but get a little enjoyment out of Kathy Griffin what she deserves for just being a terrible person, but it is absolutely disgusting that Zucker would punish her for asking for a raise. But it’s not surprising coming from a die-hard liberal.
Of course, after talking about this she ended up shifting the conversation to racial injustice and women getting paid less, and blah blah blah, your typical liberal garbage talking points. But she did add a good point, “You know, I got canned from CNN, which hurt me a lot personally because I loved that gig, but then for me to watch Jeffrey Toobin talking about women’s choice after he mastur***ed on a Zoom call. Which I know sounds funny, but maybe it wasn’t so funny for the other ladies who worked at The Atlantic [sic] that had to see that.”
They let this guy come back and probably without any pay decrease or anything when he honestly should have been fired.
