The changes at CNN continue as the network's Senior Editor of Media, An Phung, announced on Wednesday via Twitter that she would leave her position.
Phung has spent the last five and a half years on the media desk, working closely with reporter Oliver Darcy, managing editor Alex Koppelman, and former "Reliable Sources" host Brian Stelter.
"I am sad to announce that I will be leaving CNN," Phung tweeted. There isn't enough room here to praise all the people who made it a great place to work.
"And there are so many people to thank for helping me tell good and important stories about the threats against journalism and democracy."
She didn't reveal when her last day at CNN will be; however, Phung is "spending my remaining time at CNN expressing my gratitude to them." During her time at the media desk, Phung has credited Darcy, Koppelman, and Stelter for making her a stronger editor.
Phung didn't disclose what's next for her career and, for now, is reflecting on her time at CNN, considering having a background as a refugee.
"For a kid born on a refugee boat, a prestigious job at CNN was never a given," Phung tweeted. "Then to be able to work with some of the most brilliant journalists in the industry—this job has just exceeded my biggest and boldest childhood dreams. I am living proof of what is possible."
