CNN's embattled CEO, Chris Licht, is out after a turbulent first year that included layoffs, a botched town hall with former President Donald Trump and a no-holds-barred profile in The Atlantic.
Chris Licht taps Don Lemon, Kaitlan Collins and Poppy Harlow for CNN's new morning show. Licht made his name reimagining mornings for MSNBC and CBS, then revived Stephen Colbert's Late Night on CBS.
Licht would replace Jeff Zucker, who resigned earlier this month after saying he had failed to acknowledge a romantic relationship with a senior executive at the network.
