Me thinks this is just the cover story. For something a lot more damning. And he knows it and steps away.

YMMV.
Methinks you're correct.

So CNN is full of sexual harassers, enablers, perverts, stalkers, and inappropriate relationships.

Well done.

CNN is where many dems/liberals get their news. Maybe they will learn something from this. We have always known they were biased and ethically challenged.

There is a loooong list of CEO's fired for having a consensual relationship with a subordinate.

That being said, it's funny how hard CNN has beaten the drum about #metoo and going hard after everyone they can (Kavanaugh for example) it's ironic\hypocrisy like when they catch some anti-gay preacher in a gay affair.

He is not resigning for the relationship, but because he did not disclose it per CNN policy. The idea being they can't enforce it for the rank and file if they don't for the executives. (apparently everyone knew about the relationship whether he disclosed it or not).

So the question is what right does an employer have to know about a consensual relationship that breaks no laws in the first place? We are nothing but slaves to our employers.

Meh.

A man this powerful would never resign over something so banal.

Something else is up.
