Christiane Amanpour, CNN’s chief international anchor and a fixture of the 24/7 news network for more than four decades, plans to leave the company next June.
“After more than 43 years at CNN, Christiane has decided that the time is right to begin a new chapter,” Mark Thompson, CNN’s chief executive, said in a letter to newsroom employees that was obtained by NBC News.
Thompson said Amanpour, 68, plans to “scale back” her eponymous CNN International show to once a week early in 2027. “The program will conclude in May,” Thompson added, “and she will leave CNN at the end of June.”
“Christiane has thought carefully about this decision, and she and I have been discussing it for some months,” Thompson said. “Like so many CNNers who will hear the news today, I’m very sorry to see her go, but l’ve come to accept that this is the right time for her, both personally and professionally.”
Amanpour has covered nearly every major international conflict and global crisis of the last four decades, including the fall of the Berlin Wall, the Bosnian War, the Persian Gulf War, the post-9/11 U.S. wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, the Arab Spring, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and Israel’s war in Gaza.

Good riddance!
Maybe she can take the position of spokeswoman for the IRGC.
CNN ...
Conservative News Network, a new era has begun in MSM.
I shall lower my antenna to half-staff. Christiane, we did not deserve you! Now, be free. Be free!
All I have to say about this is ... who? (Yes, I know who “that” is, I just don’t care).
Well, ‘bye...
Worst of the worst!
She never met an Islamic savage she don’t like.
Iranians confront Amanpour: “Shame on you! You piece of filth! You’re a fake news journalist! You’re a lobbyist for the Islamic Republic! You are the microphone for Ayatollah Khamenei..”

Open Source Intel @Osint613: Reza Pahlavi supporters, labeled thugs by Christiane Amanpour, confronted her on camera, yelling:
“Shame on you! You piece of filth! You’re a fake news journalist! You’re a lobbyist for the Islamic Republic! You are the microphone for Ayatollah Khamenei! She’s a propagandist of the Islamic Republic!”
Good riddance to bad rubbish. She’s a disgusting person and a dark soul.
Just gtfo! Hand in your building pass before the guard escorts you out. HR will pack up your $h!+ and have it sent to your home.
Seem like only people who like CNN like depression
Good one!
Indeed the brooms are out!
They can finally uncover all the mirrors and not have to worry about them breaking.
How many time has she left CNN or shuffled off to something minor? I think she’s like a bad penny; she’ll show up again on the CNN landscape.
43 years of POS reporting...
I’m old enough to remember her predecessor: Tokyo Rose...
I guess she’ll be missed but not by me!
I hear Al-Jazeera is hiring.
“Good riddance!
Maybe she can take the position of spokeswoman for the IRGC.”
