CNN announced on Wednesday that it has dropped Kathy Griffin from its annual New Year’s Eve special in the wake of her gory photo shoot posing with the “severed head” of President Trump. “I am sorry. I went too far. I was wrong,” she tweeted hours after images from the controversial photo shoot were released via TMZ. Griffin famously co-hosted the cable-news outlet’s New Year’s program with Anderson Cooper for several years, often pushing the limits with raunchy jokes during the program.
