Consequently, the seasoned CNN journalist will be assigned to a late-night slot, often referred to as the \u201cSiberia\u201d of cable news, effectively sidelining him from the competitive ratings landscape and stalling his previously distinguished career.<\/p>\n<p>In his place, a new program will be co-anchored by Pamela Brown, 39, and Wolf Blitzer, a veteran anchor who has also lost his individual show as Thompson seeks to revamp the network\u2019s lineup.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-5\">Rather than accept this new role, Acosta may choose to leave the network, according to sources familiar with his situation, as reported by the Daily Mail. Other insiders have indicated that Acosta feels he is being unfairly treated within the organization due to this unexpected demotion. One source noted that Acosta\u2019s \u201conly path forward\u201d at CNN would involve accepting the midnight-to-2 a.m. time slot.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jim Acosta, who was a prominent figure in CNN\u2019s opposition to President Donald Trump during his initial term, is reportedly contemplating leaving his position following a significant demotion that has removed his own program&#46;&#46;&#46;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":549,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-548","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"brizy_media":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/originaltastex.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/548","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/originaltastex.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/originaltastex.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/originaltastex.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/originaltastex.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=548"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/originaltastex.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/548\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":550,"href":"https:\/\/originaltastex.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/548\/revisions\/550"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/originaltastex.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/549"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/originaltastex.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=548"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/originaltastex.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=548"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/originaltastex.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=548"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
