CNN threw Geragos under the bus as soon as they found out that he was an alleged co-conspirator with Creepy Porn Lawyer in an extortion case against Nike.
Mark Geragos, a camera-ready attorney linked to lawyer Michael Avenatti’s alleged extortion plot, isn’t leaving his CNN perch quietly.
Geragos, 61, made hundreds of appearances on CNN while working for the news organization. CNN dropped him after the Wall Street Journal reported Geragos was named a co-conspirator with Avenatti in a $20 million extortion attempt of Nike. Geragos wasn’t charged in the Avanatti complaint.
The Los Angeles-based legal analyst on Tuesday told a radio host CNN is a “lame-ass organization” that should change its name to “Cut and Run Network.”
“I’ve been texted by all of their anchors who are as outraged as I am,” Geragos said. “God forbid that I start telling some of the stories for how I’ve covered for that lame-ass organization.”
