CNN is moving out of its downtown Atlanta mainstay.

The CNN logo atop the CNN Center that has long been a fixture among the Atlanta skyline will soon be no more as the network is moving its operations a few miles north to the Warner Bros. Discovery’s Techwood Turner Broadcasting campus.

The network’s decision to close the CNN Center has been years in the making, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.“I am heartbroken,” said former CNN President Tom Johnson, who led the network from 1990 to 2001. “So many of my friends tell me how they’re going to miss that wonderful CNN logo on top of CNN Center. It just meant so much to us.”

The CNN Center was reportedly sold in 2021 by AT&T, the network’s former parent company, to Florida-based real estate firms CP Group and Rialto Capital Management for around $164 million in an effort to cut costs. While much of CNN’s programming originates from New York and Washington, D.C., a large behind-the-scenes presence has remained in Atlanta. The network moved its master control operations to its new location this past week, according to TVNewser. CNN has said the move’s entirety will be complete by the end of 2023.The Techwood campus is also home to other cable networks’ departments, including those belonging to TBS, TNT, Turner Classic Movies, Cartoon Network, and truTV.

Last week, CNN also announced changes to its daily programming, including how its anchors will spend little time sitting behind a desk but rather be moving around the studios.

Because someone would steal it, and they wouldn't be prosecuted because it's worth less than $1000 now.

Suggestion to CNN close down all operations while you’re at it.

Baby orphaned in military raid now at center of custody battle with her relatives and MarineIn 2019, a weeks-old baby girl was found badly hurt but — miraculously — alive in the rubble of a raid by U.S. special operations forces. Now, she's at the center of custody battle with her relatives and a Marine. So a US Marine wants to steal a baby from her family. Pretty disgusting. Give. Her. Back. To. Her. Family. How is this even a battle? The US government sent in soldiers who badly injured an infant and killed those around her and some court in Virginia allowed her to be taken away from her remaining family members?
