Campbell Brown is quitting CNN

Campbell Brown will quit as CNN’s 8PM news anchor due to low ratings. Compounding CNN’s ratings problems, the prime-time anchor Campbell Brown said Wednesday that she was leaving the cable news channel.

The simple fact is that not enough people want to watch my program, and I owe it to myself and to CNN to get out of the way so that CNN can try something else. CNN will have to figure out what that is,” said in a statement.

Ms. Brown said it was her decision to leave, and that she would remain the anchor of the 8 p.m. hour on CNN during “the transition.” In a lengthy and heartfelt statement, she wrote, “Simply put, the ratings for my program are not where I would like them to be.”

“Shedding my own journalistic skin to try to inhabit the kind of persona that might coexist in that lineup is simply impossible for me. It is not who I am or who I want to be; nor is it who CNN asked me to be at any point.”

Campbell’s eponymous news program has reportedly averaged a disastrous 591,000 viewers. She will continue to host until CNN finds a replacement.
