Christiane Amanpour, a veteran CNN International anchor, announced on October 19 that she would be leaving the network next summer after more than 40 years. CNN CEO Mark Thompson put out a memo for staff members at the company saying, “After more than 43 years at CNN, Christiane has decided that the time is right to begin a new chapter.”
“Early in 2027, she will scale back her CNN International show, ‘Amanpour,’ to once a week. The program will conclude in May, and she will leave CNN at the end of June,” Thompson said. “Christiane has thought carefully about this decision, and she and I have been discussing it for some months. Like so many CNNers who will hear the news today, I’m very sorry to see her go, but I’ve come to accept that this is the right time for her, both personally and professionally.”
