CNN Anchor Abby Phillip Renews Contract to Continue Hosting 'CNN Newsnight'
Abby Phillip has signed a new deal to remain at CNN, where she currently hosts the nightly program 'CNN Newsnight'. Phillip, who joined the network in 2017, has become a prominent figure, with her show's roundtables frequently generating social media engagement through debates among political figures. While a network spokesperson declined to comment on talent contracts, a source confirmed the renewal. In addition to 'CNN Newsnight', Phillip also hosts 'Table for Five' on Saturday mornings and the streaming series 'Confessions and Obsessions'. Her previous roles at CNN included senior political correspondent and host of 'Inside Politics Sunday'. Prior to her tenure at CNN, Phillip worked at The Washington Post, ABC News, and Politico. This contract renewal follows a similar move by CNN last year, when the network signed another primetime host, Anderson Cooper, to a new contract.
