A: Aaron Brown, who had been hosting CNN’s “NewsNight,” has been replaced with Anderson Cooper and the show has been renamed to “Anderson Cooper 360.” Cooper’s old 7 p.m. time slot was filled by the three-hour “Situation Room” anchored by Wolf Blitzer. An ABC report on the switch quoted CNN’s U.S. president, Jon Klein, as saying the replacement was done “to build CNN’s schedule around what he considers its hottest personality, Cooper, and hottest new show, ‘The Situation Room.’ ” Cooper had been gathering notoriety through his reports on recent disasters. beginning with the Asian tsunami and most recently Hurricane Katrina.
Brown came to CNN from ABC in 2001 and was immediately put into a major role after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.
