Jeff resigned and the decision to resign was Jeff’s decision. It was an unfortunate set of circumstances… these are the hardest decisions, they’re always difficult anytime you get involved in a personal situation and I know Jeff had a tremendous following within CNN and there are people who are incredibly loyal and supportive of him. That makes it hard for those individuals, squawk Box.

We’re running a banner here that says Jeff Zucker made the decision to resign based on what you just said, however, Jason Kilar was recorded having a conversation with the staff at CNN in Washington where it was clear that it was not Jeff Zucker’s decision. In fact, not only was it not his decision when he was effectively pushed, he apparently wanted to stay for another week or two or three and he couldn’t, so, just try to square the reality of this. It sounds-- he may technically have resigned … he said, ‘I’ll resign rather than you technically fire me,’ but clearly he was pushed to do this.

Tolerance. It is sometimes compared to resignation and surrender, but the meaning is different. Tolerance does not mean that you give up or that you give up everything, nor does it mean that you resign or let go of the person you love. Let's say that tolerance is that you just choose the right because that's what you have to do. Maybe, inside you still love that person, but that's why you choose his pleasure more than your pleasure. Tolerance is not being stingy. Rather, it is giving or sharing fun with other people. Tolerance, a way of sacrificing in a way that even when you are already hurting, what is important for you is that you see the person you love happy. ‘If you really love him, be happy for him’, scratches that saying about tolerance. Maybe, it's also a way for you to show your true love for that person.
