CNN Says Andy Cohen Will Return To New Year’s Eve Gig; Host Says He Regrets Verbal Barbs About Ryan Seacrest

Regina King is grieving the loss of son Ian Alexander Jr. after announcing his death at age 26.

Comedian and actress Kathy Griffin claimed CNN president Jeff Zucker slashed her pay after she had asked for a raise as co-host of the network's New Year's Eve special.  In a profile published Wednesday in The New York Times, Griffin recalled reaching out to Zucker ten days before the broadcast in 2016 and told him she felt she deserved more than her $80,000 contract since "she was carrying more of the prep work" than her co-host, CNN anchor Anderson Cooper.  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.

Changing the channel? After being fired from her New Year’s Eve hosting gig, Kathy Griffin revealed that she still “hate-watched” Anderson Cooper and her replacement, Andy Cohen, on the CNN special.

New York Attorney General Letitia James said that her investigation has found “significant evidence” that Donald Trump’s businesses used “fraudulent and misleading” asset valuations.
