Ed Henry Leaving CNN; Joining Fox News As Chief White House Correspondent
Source: Mediaite

Ed Henry, CNN’s chief White House correspondent, has announced he’s leaving the network. In an email to CNN staff, Henry says he’s “landed a terrific opportunity elsewhere that I am absolutely thrilled about,” but does not say where he’s headed. Fox News confirms to Mediaite Henry will join the network as chief White House correspondent, following his colleague John Roberts, who left CNN for Fox back in January.

Henry’s contract with CNN was up. In a short statement, CNN says “we thank Ed for his contributions and wish him the best. We will be naming our new chief White House correspondent in the coming days.”

1. So many reporters are leaving news jobs for acting and entertainment positions these days.
It's kinda sad.

3. CNN and Fox News are like a Buick and Oldsmobile were, the
name tags are different but the parts are interchangeable.

you can't go from tabloid, to real news, and then all the way down to trash-news and not be tarnished

poor thing
