“This was an incredible loss,” CNN anchor Alisyn Camerota said of Jeff Zucker's resignation. “It is so regrettable how it happened. These are two consenting adults who are both executives, that they cant have a private relationship? It feels wrong' More:
In a note to staff Wednesday, WarnerMedia CEO Jason Kilar said that he had accepted Zucker’s resignation. Not long after, he revealed the new leadership team running CNN in Zucker’s absence: Michael Bass, who leads CNN programming, Ken Jautz, who oversees operations, business affairs, and HLN, and Amy Entelis, who oversees talent and content development.
“I have full confidence that Michael, Amy and Ken, as interim heads for News, will provide the leadership this organization needs during this time of transition,” Kilar wrote. “You will hear more from Michael, Amy, Ken, Lenny, and Patrick in the coming days but I wanted you to be aware of these decisions that have been made.”
Inside CNN, one source described the unexpected news as “stunning.” Zucker was widely-liked by CNN talent, leading one person to compare the mood to that of a funeral.
