 Anderson Cooper inks new deal to remain at CNN 

Anderson Cooper has signed a new contract to remain with CNN, ensuring his continued presence across the network’s programming.

Cooper hosts the nightly Anderson Cooper 360, the weekly newsmagazine The Whole Story, and the podcast and streaming series All There Is.

CNN has been emphasizing integration of its linear programming with digital and streaming offerings. The network recently introduced a subscription streaming service that provides on-demand programming, a 24/7 live feed, and exclusive content.
