Brian Stelter Returns to CNN as Chief Media Analyst

Published On Sep 3, 2024, 7:39 PM

Brian Stelter, who previously left CNN in 2022, is returning to the network in a new role as chief media analyst and author of the 'Reliable Sources' newsletter. He won't host the Sunday show which is returning, but will appear as an on-air analyst. Stelter's departure and return reflect changes in CNN's leadership and programming approach, emphasizing a shift from partisan analysis to more neutral reporting. The decision comes after the previous newsletter author, Oliver Darcy, left to start a new media outlet.
