CNN anchor Chris Cuomo advised his brother, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D), to resign amid revelations that the governor sexually harassed and assaulted several women.
Chris Cuomo, who is taking a conveniently planned vacation this week, reportedly has had regular phone calls with the embattled New York governor over the past week and even encouraged his brother to resign, noting that he would be unable to outlast this scandal, according to The New York Times.
The Times' sources said that, as aides resigned and top Democrats called for him to step down, Gov. Cuomo was advised by his brother to look at the writing on the wall and leave his gubernatorial post.
CNN has told the "Cuomo Primetime" host that he can no longer participate in strategy sessions with his brother's aides after a May report found that he previously counseled the governor and his staff on how to deal with the sex scandal during these sessions. However, the network has said that Chris would be permitted to speak directly to his brother about the scandal.
