CNN's Morning Show Makeover: Revamped Lineup and Production Move to Atlanta

CNN is overhauling its morning programming lineup under new CEO Mark Thompson in an effort to improve its ratings. The flagship morning show, "CNN This Morning," will be revamped and moved to Washington, DC, with anchor Kasie Hunt. The changes will impact roles in New York, and new programming will be added, including shows anchored by Jim Acosta and Pamela Brown. The overhaul comes as CNN's viewership has declined, partly due to programming choices made by former chief Chris Licht, and reflects the network's efforts to recalibrate its offerings in hopes of reclaiming its audience.

CNN's Morning Show Shake-Up: New Strategy, New Anchor, New Hope

CNN is overhauling its morning programming, canceling "CNN This Morning" and reshuffling its anchor lineup. The new CEO, Mark Thompson, has decided to expand Kasie Hunt's show, move "CNN News Central" to 7 a.m., and introduce new programs at 10 a.m. and 11 a.m. The changes will see the production of "This Morning" move from New York to Atlanta, with anchors Poppy Harlow and Phil Mattingly in discussions about new roles. Thompson emphasized that the decision is a change in strategic direction and not a reflection on the talent of the New York-based teams, encouraging them to apply for new roles in Atlanta, Washington, D.C., and New York.
