On-air Goodbyes: Two CNN anchors wished their respective time-slot audiences goodbye, albeit for different reasons. On Sunday on CNN This Morning Weekend, Amara Walker signed off from the network after 10 years of anchoring on CNN and CNN International. “To my viewers in the U.S. and around the world, thank you for entrusting me to bring you the news. It has been an incredible privilege,” Walker said.
Today marks a new beginning, after a 10 year run at CNN.
It has been a privilege.
Can’t wait to share my next adventure. Stay tuned… pic.twitter.com/AwimRgsuQb— Amara Walker (@AmaraCNN) February 17, 2025
