Our goal throughout the strategic review process has been to better align our people, processes and resources with our future priorities, strengthen our ability to deliver on CNN's core journalistic mission and enable us to innovate in the years ahead.

At the highest level, the goal is to direct our resources to best serve and grow audiences for our core news programming and products.

To achieve these goals, we will be reducing open job positions, reimagining our workflows and aligning our staffing, investments and focus around three key strategic priorities: programming, newsgathering and digital.

CNN International is reorganizing some of its teams and bureaus, and effective immediately, the 5:00-5:30pm ET show will be replaced by a simulcast of CNN US for that half hour.

CNNE's linear network will seek to expand its audience by diversifying the network's programming beyond news.

We will continue to produce news for CNNE, and throughout next year, we will look to develop a far more robust digital platform for CNNE with the aim of launching it in 2024.

We believe that investment will better serve and significantly grow our Spanish-language news audience, and we will have more to share on that in 2023.

Many of the staff reductions in Newsgathering will be offset by the addition of new roles to best serve our audience across platforms.

Research is reorganizing to focus resources on CNN's core businesses and to optimize our recently integrated Digital Analytics and Data Science teams.
