Amanpour will end her daily CNN and PBS programs after 43 years and continue a weekly CNN International show while pursuing new projects.

  • On Monday, CNN chief international anchor Christiane Amanpour announced she will leave the network in June 2027, ending a 43-year career and scaling back daily programming by year-end.
  • Amanpour will conclude her PBS program "Amanpour & Company" in December, then shift her daily CNN series to weekly format in January 2027 before the program ends in May.
  • CNN CEO Mark Thompson called Amanpour "one of the most trusted and beloved journalists anywhere" and said the network will celebrate her contributions before her departure.
  • After leaving CNN, Amanpour will continue her podcast "The Ex-Files," produced by Global with former husband Jamie Rubin, and pursue new projects.
