According to recent reports, CNN has decided to permanently shut down its entire opinion section as part of ongoing changes at the cable news network. Certain writers were formally notified of this decision via email. The opinion section served as a platform for diverse voices and featured pieces on topics like the 2024 presidential election, the Olympics, and Generation Z social media trends. CNN CEO Mark Thompson has been implementing strategies to curb spending and improve the network’s standing after a tumultuous year of mass layoffs and lower ratings following Jeff Zucker’s exit.
