Hopefully, the smug, arrogant hack Christiane Amanpour is just the first in a series of CNN hacks to quit or be fired over the next few months.. This British hack is gone, after 40+ years at the Democrat network, and it’s glorious!
CNN’s Christiane Amanpour is leaving the cable network after more than four decades as one of its most recognizable faces, she said Monday.
The announcement, which sent shockwaves through the chattering classes, came weeks after Paramount Skydance finalized its purchase of CNN’s parent company Warner Bros. Discovery, sparking anxiety in the newsroom.
Amanpour, known for interviewing heads of state and reporting from conflict zones, made no mention of the drama in a departure note, in which she said she’d stick around until next June.
“After many months of thought and a few sleepless nights, I have decided to separate from CNN, my partner of 43 fantastic years!” she said in a statement.
The 68-year-old journo added that she “looks forward to interesting new projects down the line, and will always be rooting for CNN and maintaining its history of independent journalism. Remember: always be truthful, not neutral.”
