CNN's Jim Acosta Rumored to Move to Night Program
Jim Acosta, the White House correspondent for CNN, is reportedly set to leave the network after being moved from his morning show to a night program. The decision to change his time slot has allegedly not been well received by Acosta, prompting him to consider resignation.
Acosta, who has been with CNN since 2007, is known for his critical journalism, particularly his confrontations with former President Trump. His 'aggressive' reporting on Trump's first term is believed to have played a role in the network's decision to reassign him to a less popular time slot.
Mark Thompson, CNN's current CEO, reportedly expressed a desire for less biased coverage of the new president during a meeting with network journalists prior to Trump's inauguration. While CNN has not officially commented on the rumors, an anonymous source from the network seems to confirm Acosta's departure to Fox News.
