Drew Griffin, CNN’s award-winning Senior Investigative Correspondent, known for getting even the cagiest of interview subjects to engage in a story, died Saturday after a long battle with cancer, his family said. He was 60.
A gifted storyteller, Griffin had a well-earned reputation for holding powerful people and institutions accountable.
“Drew’s death is a devastating loss to CNN and our entire profession,” CNN CEO Chris Licht said in a note to staff. “A highly acclaimed investigative journalist, Drew’s work had incredible impact and embodied the mission of this organization in every way.”
Griffin worked on hundreds of stories and multiple documentaries over the course of nearly two decades on CNN’s investigative team. His reporting had been honored with some of journalism’s most prestigious awards – Emmys, Peabodys, and Murrows among them.
“But people mattered more to Drew than prizes,” Licht said.

RIP.
I knew a guy who was walking down the street, tripped over the curb, hit his head and died. I think it was vaccine induced vertigo that caused it.
Have you ever known someone dying of cancer?
Your question is both insensitive and ignorant. It’s stunning in it’s inappropriateness.
Nappy the vaxroid is getting a case of stampy feet. What is it with you people?
Because you fools look like idiots, blaming every single death on the vaccine. Why don’t we see the deaths of those who were unvaccinated who are dead? Not part of your agenda I see
No doubt. I’m sure. We must be up to 50 million deaths by now with the vaccine.
Sorry you were the first. It’s just boring. It was funny at first, but some new jokes are needed.
The only agenda I have in any of this is self preservation. I'm doing quite well with it. Of course I don't have TeeVee so I don't get the CNN/CBS/NBC/Fox daily/hourly updates. I know of no one that has died from the covid flu, very few that even got ill by having it. I know several that are certainly screwed from taking that stupid clot shot. How many times have you rolled up your sleeve?
Are you up to date on the latest and greatest boosters? How many total shots does that make since the covid plague hit?
3. Remember you complained when I got the anthrax series of shots in the military. That was seven. I remember you said I’d be dead in 15 years. Oops still Kickin. people got kicked out of the military for refusing the anthrax vaccine. You guys were cheerleading everyone of them.
Remember you complained...I don't remember any of these statements you attribute to me. They're so personal and disjointed, you've almost certainly had that conversation with someone but not me. Are you confusing me with the voices in your head? Have you and I met in another life? What's going on with you nappy?
I feel bad. Your age is creeping up on you. Over 80 is not easy and memory is a first to go. I wish you the best and of course thoughts and prayers.
I'm 62 years old. My memory is just fine. You're sounding irrational.
