CNN confirmed Stewart’s death with law enforcement on Saturday, May 18, who said Stewart was found dead inside her home in Virginia that morning. Officers believe her death was the result of a medical emergency, and no foul play is suspected. An official cause of death has yet to be determined.
Stewart was hired at CNN as a political commentator in 2016 ahead of the presidential election between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. She cohosted the podcast “Hot Mics From Left to Right” with Maria Cardona, another CNN commentator. She also appeared on air as recently as Friday, May 17, for an episode of “The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer.”
CNN anchor Jim Acosta also shared his condolences via X on Saturday. “My heart is broken over the passing of our dear colleague Alice Stewart,” he wrote. “We’ve been friends going back to the 2012 campaign. We spent so many weekends talking politics with the wonderful @MariaTCardona - they always spoke so passionately but with kindness and civility. Alice was my friend and I loved her. RIP.”
“I always wanted to be in news,” Stewart told the Harvard International Review in an October 2020 interview. “So, I started out as a reporter and producer in Savannah, Georgia, and then I went to work in Atlanta behind the scenes as a producer and then to Little Rock, Arkansas, where I was a news anchor and reporter. I loved, you know, learning new things. I loved covering politics. I loved courts; I loved breaking news.
