Anderson Cooper is leaving CNN.

There are no reports suggesting that journalist Anderson Cooper is leaving CNN any time soon.

There are no reports suggesting that journalist Anderson Cooper is leaving CNN any time soon. Anderson Cooper is an American journalist. He is a news anchor at CNN. He broadcasts "Anderson cooper 360°" live from New York City studio and sometimes from Washington D.C for a live broadcast. Between Sept. 2011 and May. 2013, he also hosted a daytime talk show called ‘Anderson Live.’

Anderson Cooper was born in Manhattan, New York City. His father, Wyatt Emory Cooper, was a writer, and his mother, Gloria Vanderbilt, was a fashion designer. In the year 1995, Cooper became a correspondent for ABC News. However, after the 9/11 attack, he left ABC News and joined CNN in 2001. On Sept. 08, 2003, Cooper became an anchor at Anderson Cooper 360° on CNN.

In 2016, Cooper renewed his contract with the channel and said that he doesn’t foresee leaving CNN. "Anything I do would be an add-on," he was quoted as saying in a statement from May 2016.

On May 12, 2020, he appeared on Howard Stern’s radio show, where while talking about his time at CNN and his future prospects, he said, “I don’t know that anyone wants a contract to be up during a global pandemic, by the way. I got a couple of years. I’m very happy. I’m very lucky.”

However, there is no proof or any media rumors that Cooper is planning to leave CNN. Therefore, the claim is not true.
