CNN

[Mouseboy33]

CNN seemingly refuses to make any studio investments at the former CNN Center. Its really sad to see how the temple of news has fallen so far from its perch. Reduced to cobbled together bits and pieces in the old HLN studio. Whilst HLN and CNNi gets more use out of Studio 7. They still have the huge global newsroom and you'd think they'd have a live cameras positions above it as bumpers into and out of CNN Newsroom programming across the day. They seemingly just ignore it, like they are ashamed to mention or refer to it. Look at the fact that they use a view of the tiny NY newsroom on the screen on that Atlanta set instead of this:

I think was because Zucker wanted everyone close to him, since he was a very hands on guy, I'm not sure what changes with Licht in that respect, but I would love it if CNN went back to being mostly in Atlanta again, I think being more out of New York and DC would help their content.
They should update the old HLN studio oh the and old CNN International studio.

CNN is moving to Techwood at the Ted Turner Campus in Midtown. The building was sold years ago but COVID put the brakes on any move. They won't be investing in Atlanta, not with a move on the horizon. They'd be better off moving into the Newsroom at a smaller set up.

Yeah I posted that article from AJC a few years ago. They are supposed redevelop Techwood and build a new building on the campus. It seems like they may have to relocate the satellite farm on the property as well. It was sad that Zucker & Co sold their marquee property. But now that TimeWarner is being sold off from ATT and linking up with Discovery with the merger possibly going thru this week, It will be while yet before shovels hit the ground. But they wont even mention Atlanta on air or anything or even show the building or the newsroom. Its like they were even banned years ago from saying "CNN Center". I take that back they did mention it during the protests in 2020. But they anchors alternated between saying "CNN Center" and "CNN's Atlanta offices". ITs not like they dont have money to do things and its not like any new set they build cant be relocated to any new structure built at Techwood. CNN changes sets like people change their pants. Look at all the stuff they put in place for CNN+..... which I dont see lasting very long in its current form. But the image of NY Newsroom in the background of the CNN Atlanta set says an awful lot.
