CNN Anchor Quits After Nine Years for New Opportunity
Golodryga said she is leaving for an opportunity she could not pass up and will sign off on air Friday after nine years at CNN.
- On Thursday, CNN anchor Bianna Golodryga announced her resignation after nine years, stating she is leaving for "an opportunity that I couldn't pass up." She will sign off for the final time on Friday.
- Her exit follows the announcement earlier this week that veteran international correspondent Christiane Amanpour would depart CNN International next year, making Golodryga the second prominent anchor to leave the network this week.
- Golodryga co-anchored "One World" with Zain Asher on CNN International and served as senior global affairs analyst covering Russia's invasion of Ukraine and the aftermath of Hamas' October 7, 2023 attack on Israel.
- Both departures occur weeks after Paramount Skydance closed its acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery on October 6, placing CNN and CBS News under one corporate roof led by CEO David Ellison amid internal uncertainty.
- While Golodryga has not disclosed her next career move, she previously held roles at CBS News and Yahoo Finance after beginning her television career in 2001, establishing her as a respected international affairs correspondent.
