8a ET was billed as CNN This Morning Weekend, since 9am it's "Newsroom".
Since 8a ET Kaitlan Collins is heavily participating in the coverage and even coanchors some of the hours.
(On the studio side, it was Victor Blackwell until 10a ET, now it's Pamela Brown.)
CNNI schedule shifted the Amanpour Hour at 11p ET, while CNN/US one hasn't been updated.
Wow, that's interesting. Who was anchoring them? CNNI anchors (Isa Soares? Richard Quest? Their shows got scrapped on CNNI yesterday) or rather CNN Max ones (like Jim Sciutto)?
CNNI anchors. Julia Chatterly, Zain Asher, Isa Soares, Richard Quest. Some branded as newsroom, but they also did CTW, One World, Isa Soares Tonight, and Quest Means Business. Something like 6 straight hours only being shown on Max while CNNI itself was simulcasting Doemstic.
It was really weird.
Maybe Jim Sciutto and much of the CNN Max team got the week off for Thanksgiving. So why does that fall to CNNI then? It shouldn’t.
