CNN This Morning 2022
An American morning television program, CNN This Morning debuted on November 1, 2022, replacing New Day as CNN’s early weekday news broadcast. The show was introduced during a restructuring effort led by CNN president Chris Licht, who had a short tenure at the network. Due to contractual obligations, the program also aired simultaneously on HLN, where it substituted Morning Express with Robin Meade.
The initial lineup included Don Lemon, Poppy Harlow, and Kaitlan Collins, who hosted from CNN's New York City studios. In April 2023, Don Lemon was dismissed from the network, followed by Kaitlan Collins leaving in May 2023 to join The Source, a new CNN primetime program. Their roles were filled temporarily by rotating co-anchors until August 2023, when Phil Mattingly, formerly of CNN’s White House correspondent position, became Harlow's permanent co-anchor.
In February 2024, CNN CEO Mark Thompson announced the cancellation of the show. Its final broadcast occurred on February 23, 2024. Beginning February 26, CNN News Central moved into the former timeslot of CNN This Morning. The CNN This Morning name was shifted to Early Start, CNN’s early-morning newscast. Additionally, the weekend version of the morning show, inherited from New Day, continued using the CNN This Morning branding.
