I read on CNN boards that Todd Benjamin was back on CNN tonight talking to Charles and later Becky who said it's great to have him back.
This is great news for CNN, especially now that they have the new business oriented schedule and so much is going on in the world of business,
Adrian Finighan appears now to be fully devoted to the Business schedule as well. I don't see him presenting news bulletins any more. He was Biz presenter at World for many years before moving across to newscasting. He is consistently excellent.
The new single headed YWT appears to be a bit disjointed, however.
That's a little unfair, although presenting TT is a blot on anybody's resume and arguably a indicative of pretty poor judgement, she is a qualified journalist and has had stints covering actual news stories.
Having said that, I'm not sure if she's the greatest presenter.
Why are we having all these random presenters but Isha and Michael Holmes have been MIA.
CNNI really need to work things out, CNN Today should be a double header because it is a morning show - people want banter etc in the morning not a lone anchor plodding through the bulletin.

I think the channel needs a new direction, dump everything and start fresh. The channel used to be the most watchable international news channel but BBCWN has come in from the cold with it's revamp and AJE is growing in popularity.
why did they have finula sweeny doin one world news europe and then beccky anderson doin the half hour one and then the next hour one- would it not make sense to keep finula?
I dont know why they change presenters as they do with the world today as well
I dont like beccky shes like a man and nods her head to much
The schedule is like this. Fiounnala always does and hour of WNE at 2100 CET while Becky always does WNE at 2300. As for WNE at 2200CET one week it's Fiounnala and then the other it's Becky.
