Obviously this is just temporary and for a short period of time but I have to say the changes are a positive though. I'm mostly pleased to see John and Briana rotating on The Lead. That show will really play to their strengths in interviewing and challenging guests sharply. Twitter seem to hate Jake Tapper but I think he's the sort of journalist that CNN needs in prime time. He's covered that slot before actually when he was covering the War In Ukraine and did reasonably well so it's good to see him getting a temporary promotion. Laura Coates and Alisyn Camerota are a good pick for the 10pm hour, Coates has been practically impressive host as well with her style of presenting. She does have that personality and spark but I don't think she rubs that in everyone's faces unlike say Don Lemon. It's a shame Sara Sidner didn't get a look in, although I hope she is part of the next set of changes.
