Paula Zahn CNN

She began her work at CNN on September 11, 2001, joining anchor Aaron Brown in the coverage of that day’s terrorist attacks as her reaction to the events she witnessed. Although not scheduled to appear on a CNN program, which was still in development, she began a regular morning news shift the next day.

By January, she launched her CNN morning news program, American Morning with Paula. In 2003, during the Iraq War, she moved back to prime time, hosting a two-hour program labeled Live from the Headlines which offered continuing coverage of the war and other events.

Anderson Cooper took over the first of the two hours by early summer, and by September, her show, Zahn Now, premiered. On July 24, 2007, she announced her resignation from CNN. The final broadcast of Paula Now aired August 2, 2007.

The announcement came less than a day after CNN hired Campbell Brown, the former co-host of Weekend Today. Initially, guest hosts essentially continued her program under the title Out in the Open. This was later replaced by-election campaign coverage and ultimately Brown’s program, Campbell Brown: No Bias, No Bull.

According to her goodbye letter penned to CNN staff, she stated: “I plan to take a break between jobs and catch my breath before I take on my next role.” In a New York Times interview, which was conducted right after the announcement of her resignation broke, she told Jacques Steinberg that “she had no idea what she would be doing next”.
