CNN Drops Blog-Watcher
The Politico's gossip gal Anne Schroeder reported Tuesday that CNN's blogosphere-watching duo Abbi Tatton and Jacki Schechner have split up. Schechner's contract wasn't renewed and she was out of work as of Friday.
The popular pair, who covered Internet and new media news for the network, appeared routinely on "The Situation Room" and I had the pleasure of working with them both on election night during last November's midterms.
Schechner came to CNN after producing and hosting video news segments for a reality-based video game company in the Big Apple, according to her bio. During the 2000 presidential election cycle, she was the on-camera chat host for Pseudo.com, an interactive Web TV service. She got her start in TV at Miami's WSVN and the NBC station in Hagerstown, Md.
Pssst! Jacki -- we're hiring.
