Well researched and up to date, never shy to correct guests if they offer incorrect or outdated information. This program provides excellent coverage and insight to the most pressing issues.
I have enjoyed listening to Amanpour for the last couple of months. The podcast is an oasis of sophisticated, interesting, and professional news in the midst of blabbering talking heads. Thank you for offering this program.
Yesterday’s interview with Ukrainian adviser Yamak left a lot to be desired. Besides technical difficulties that will happen, the interviewee had a lot to be desired. C. Ammanpour kept interviewing without getting any information of substance. It was had to keep up. I finally turn it off. I’m surprised that C. Ammanpour kept going. Hopefully, this will not happen again.
thank you Christiane for being at least one level headed person at cnn. you spoke up when the rest at cnn tucked their tails in and scurried away from the truth. you are an awesome journalist!
6.7.23 news: Chris Licht, the controversial chairman and chief executive officer of CNN, is out after a short and turbulent time in charge of the news network.
Christiane leans into the hard questions. She speaks to the whole person and puts the moment into a wider context. More often than not, she has lived that context through interviews she’s had on the subject in another time and place. She uses a vernacular of words and facial expressions that minimizes the distance between her, the guest and the viewer. For me, she’s a keeper.
Your interview with Dr. Monica Gandhi was more informative than any COVID discussion I’ve heard. She quoted from well-respected research in international medical journals and revealed that the recent guideline confusion was a “messaging” error rather than a scientific one. Unfortunately, her microphone did not amplify her voice clearly.
Amanpour is legit, thank you. Right racist crybabies attacking you on review is funny. They are all weak. All they can do is cry cry cry anonymously. Cowards! Biden/ Harris won. Trump lost. What you gonna do? Nothin, go back to sleep. Traitors
Thoughtful and wide ranging discussions, Christiane and team bring different perspectives to play across both contemporary and historical topics, covering current events through to arts and culture. The diversity covered makes this a refreshing alternative to mainstream contemporaries who tend to surrender to the repetitive topics dominating today’s media. Thank you for doing what you do.
Interesting and relevant topics, guests, and great team of reporting. The show offers great relevant topics, and a perspective which isn’t based on a panel disagreeing with each other.
...for incisive questions and great guests
I just wish the episodes were titled by topic rather than guests’ names, for those of us not familiar with the people.
I love listening to Amanpour, so I was thrilled when I heard we would get an hour with her going forward! Congratulations on your great work, and thank you for keeping us so well informed, Christiane!
I value Amanpour’s reporting. The most logical interviews with all kinds of people in the know and sparing us the repetative photo-ops of current trivialities.
Finally had to unsubscribe. Too many ads. I spent all my time scrolling past the ads and looking for the atory. If I wanted this many ads I’d watch CNN.
Look no further; if you are interested in TV/radio/podcasts on IR (I'm excepting print sources), this is it. Christiane's reputation and her affiliation with CNN means that she gets the absolute best guests. And Christiane knows how to get meaningful answers out of them. She doesn't dumb things down for her viewers/listeners, but that should be celebrated. She has her biases, but they're not in your face. Listen to this podcast if you have any interest in the subject.
I'm a news junkie, and I really appreciate that Amanpour has unique content. She doesn't just recite headlines, and she doesn't have talking heads that shout at each other. Instead, she's just a great interviewer with great interviewees, talking about a variety of important, global topics.
Online, on the air or in print, Amanpour is among the best reporters (digs for information) and interviewers (deeply prepared with facts not click-baiting yellow journalism). You want to know what's going on? Read, or listen. Is that easy.
I greatly enjoy the in-depth reporting of this program but find the low production values of the podcast surprising given the source, CNN. Aired irregularly, episodes frequently begin mid-interview in what is clearly not the beginning of the broadcast. I wish it had the polish of CNN's Fareed Zakaria weekly podcast.
Amanpour is a highly insightful, very well delivered global affairs news program. As many American news programs focus solely on domestic politics and current events, Amanpour brings a unique perspective on predominantly international events that are not discussed by traditional media outlets.
Host is pretty biased and become hostile to those with a different world view. Delete most shows without listening to them, but it does cover a good international variety of topics then most places. So you may find topics here, that you won't get from other places. So occasionally worth listening to see if a topic interests you, but then you have to go find legitimate reporting elsewhere. Host can not present anything in a fair or balanced manor.
I’ve been waiting of this. I’ve been checking periodically for a podcast because I have little time to sit and watch the news and I really like Amanpour’s reporting. Thanks for this and thank you Christiane for your great work.
