View Date:2024-12-23 17:08:03
After years of delivering the news to viewers' TV screens, CNN anchor Christine Romans is making headlines of her own with her departure from the news network.
Romans, who served as CNN’s chief business correspondent and anchor of its morning news program "Early Start," announced her exit in a statement to The Hollywood Reporter on Friday. Romans’ final on-air appearance for the network was also Friday.
"It's impossible to sum up 24 wonderful and transformative years at CNN, but here it goes: five elections, a dot-com boom and bust, 9/11, a housing bubble and financial crisis, and a global pandemic," Romans told THR, before listing off some personal milestones during her tenure at CNN. "Oh … and a wedding, 3 baby boys, 3 books and 10 years of 3 a.m. wake-up calls!"
Romans began her career at CNN in 1999 as a reporter for the network's business coverage after having previously worked at the news agency Reuters, according to her profile on the CNN website.
She appeared on numerous programs over the course of her career at CNN, including "Inside Politics," "At This Hour with Kate Bolduan," "Early Start," "CNN Newsroom" and "New Day." Romans appeared on nearly 100 episodes of "New Day" from 2013-2022, per the newscaster's IMDb page.
"I've climbed the mountain and it’s time for me to climb a new one, but I’m forever grateful to have worked alongside some of the most talented journalists in the business," Romans said.
In addition to her journalistic work, Romans has also written about business and finances as a published author. She’s written "Smart Is the New Rich: If You Can’t Afford It, Put It Down," "How to Speak Money: The Language and Knowledge You Need Now" and "Smart Is the New Rich: Money Guide for Millennials."
