CNN has made sweeping changes to its line-up in an effort to boost its ratings - following the departure of its CEO Chris Licht.
Veteran journalists Chris Wallace and Christiane Amanpour will be the new faces during weekend shows in the reshuffle at the network.
Abby Phillip will take the 10pm weekday slot, while Laura Coates will take the hour later, at 11pm. Kaitlan Collins will continue to anchor her 9pm show.
Collins was previously sat with Poppy Harlow and Don Lemon on the morning show, before Lemon was sacked from the company in April.
CNN This Morning is now run by chief White House correspondent Phil Mattingly and Harlow. Kasie Hunt anchors 'Early Start.'
Pamela Brown, chief investigative correspondent is set to anchor a new day show out of the nation’s capital, while Manu Raju takes over 'Inside Politics' on Sunday.
Chris Wallace will host a panel show on the weekends, on top of his weekly program.
And Alisyn Camerota is set to take on long-form reporting for the Sunday show 'The Whole Story with Anderson Cooper.'
CNN's leadership team, including Amy Entelis, David Leavy, Virginia Moseley and Eric Sherling said: 'By expanding the range and depth of our programming lineup across multiple dayparts, we are strengthening our reporting excellence throughout the schedule, elevating our ability to tell great stories across platforms, and doubling down on CNN’s position as the most trusted name in news.'
This comes just two months after a desperate and 'devastated' Chris Licht tried to cling on to his position as CEO of CNN before he was ousted.

Mz. Malarkey approved.
They should just sell those time slots to some home shopping network. At least they’d be getting paid.
Perhaps they can boost ratings by reporting about the Bidung Bribery Cabal
deckchairs....titanic
Oh, well in that case................... Nah! They can still phu cough.
Oh yeah, that’ll help
In their addled little brains they think that shuffling around the same losers spewing the same retarded propaganda content will somehow magically change the ratings.
The previous CEO tried to right the ship with that Trump townhall, and they chased him out of town with an old fashioned democrat lynch posse.
Oh, great, a new set of losers.
Deck chairs on The Titanic.
People are tuning out corporate news.
I can remember way before he ran for POTUS, Trump telling Wulf Blister on CNN “just be glad only 20,000 people are watching you make a fool of yourself”.
Like I really want to watch two women in the evening on CNN. I hope I didn’t misgender them. The same goes for the weekend. I can’t stand Chrissy Wallace.
“CNN makes sweeping changes to its line-up in an effort to boost ratings”
titanic ... deck chairs ...
Majority is left wing females. Good luck with that.
LOL! Rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic. Christiane Amanpour?! GMAFB!
Mike Wallace Jr should bring them in.
>>Chris Wallace and Christiane Amanpour<<
Wouldn’t watch either one of them if they PAID me to.
well now...if that doesn't bring in the ratings, what will?
Oh, just compete with them by changing the genre of the network. Chris Wallace can host a show selling household products like the latest mops and Christiane Amanpour can host a show selling jewelry and fashions.
