Altogether from CNN or just being moved to other positions? Both are big losses.
Both are great talent. Hope they get new roles.
In discussion about new roles, reportedly.

Has anyone noticed weâre not getting The Situation Room by default in Australia right now.
Itâs replaced with a CNNI market focused show.
I would argue Wolf is CNNâs most famous global anchor. You would have thought his newscast should be seen world wide.
I know theyâre trying to switch focus to Jake, and Anderson is definitely famous. But surely we in Australia should still get an hour of Wolf each day.

I believe itâs to do with CNN Max, as CNN Max carries a CNNi feed at different times, avoiding US content enough as to not piss off cable companies in the US.

The new CNN dayside schedule is launching next Monday. As a result, the existing schedule has bid farewell. Poppy and Mattingly even acknowledged the NY-based dayside production team is also being phased out:
As for CNN News Central (from NY), Berman, Bolduan and Sidner announced their new morning time slot as a ârevolution on morning televisionâ, and promised âmore news, less waiting, fewer chairsâ in comparison to its competitors. The program will still air from their NY studio but will now be produced from Techwood going forward. Hereâs how it was handled.
Worth noting Pamela Brownâs new show, âThe Bulletinâ, wonât launch until Spring, when her maternity leave is over. In the meantime, a temporary âCNN Newsroomâ hour with Wolf Blitzer from Washington will take over from 11am, making two hours of CNN Newsroom in the interim.

Do we know what Harlow and Mattingly are doing next?
Youâd think Mattingly would return to the Washington bureau given the election is this year.

Mattingly is apparently staying in NY (having uprooted his whole family from DC less than a year ago).
To do what?
I find it weird theyâve given Jim Acosta an hour but not Phil and Poppy.
Phil and Poppy are definitely a great team.

CNN has fully moved now to Techwood, with a new full fledged studio. There is also a DTL setup, currently used for Rosemary Churchâs Newsroom hour.
It has been a quite cumbersome debut, with both Amara Walker and Fredericka Whitfeld off for scheduled holiday, although Victor Blackwell handled the debut quite well. As a result from Fredâs vacation, Omar Jimenez stepped in from NY (and even worse, in a DTL setup with NY backdrop).

CNNIâs coverage of the eclipse yesterday was second to none. Led by Richard Quest in their new Atlanta studio, with guests and props galore! (At one point they even went up onto the roof) Iâll try and find some videos and post them because it really was a joy to watch. (Also one of the guests was called Tom Riddle!)

The pushback graphic for the Trump trial is now disproportionately wider - How much more sexually-graphic details do we need?
(From this video)
For comparison, this is the before (I donât know why they need to put a carousel of stills of the ladies below the newsroom shotâŚ):

Interesting.
I do love that graphic. Itâs a very clever technique.
CNN Chile has updated to the Licht lower thirds⌠Not without a mix-up with the old one initially. The ticker looks off too.
