This speaks volumes about our commitment to journalism and CNN+, and we are thrilled to have Chris on the ground floor of helping us build the next generation of CNN and news,” said Jeff Zucker, Chairman, WarnerMedia News and Sports and President, CNN Worldwide. He is as fine a journalist as there is in our business. “It is not often that a news organization gets the opportunity to bring someone of Chris Wallace’s caliber on board.

The new weekday show will contribute to CNN+’s slate of original, live programming and will be available at launch. Praised as an “equal opportunity inquisitor” by The Boston Globe and “an aggressive journalist,” “sharp edged” and “solid” by The Washington Post, Wallace’s new show will feature interviews with newsmakers across politics, business, sports and culture. I look forward to the new freedom and flexibility streaming affords in interviewing major figures across the news landscape-and finding new ways to tell stories,” said Wallace. “As I embark on this adventure, I am honored and delighted to join Jeff Zucker and his great team. After decades in broadcast and cable news, I am excited to explore the world of streaming. Chris Wallace is joining CNN as an anchor for CNN+, the much-anticipated streaming subscription service that will debut in Q1 2022.
