CNN Hit With 2nd Technical Disruption in 3 Days
The network says the latest issue was unrelated to Monday’s broader WBD outage The post CNN Hit With 2nd Technical Disruption in 3 Days appeared first on TheWrap .
On Thursday morning, CNN experienced a second technical disruption within three days, forcing the network to revert to taped programming for approximately 15 minutes. This latest issue emerged shortly after midnight Eastern Time, as anchor Elex Michaelson informed viewers on social media that "The Story Is" was unable to go live.
CNN confirmed the technical difficulties began at midnight and lasted until 12:13:30 a.m., when Michaelson returned to the airwaves to apologize for the interruption. The network attributed the problem to late-night control room adjustments, emphasizing that it was distinct from a broader Warner Bros. Discovery outage that had affected CNN channels earlier in the week.
This second disruption came about 60 hours after a similar incident on Monday afternoon, during which CNN experienced frozen and pixelated screens, along with HBO and other Warner Bros. Discovery channels being affected. Despite the inconvenience, CNN swiftly returned to normal programming following the brief setback.
