Judy Woodruff's final day

CHEMICAL SOLDIER · 06-03-2005, 03:18 PM

I guess Judy Woodruff from CNN is retiring, they're doing a show on her right now. You know if she were a bit younger......

I do remember when she was a bit younger and starting off I believe on Ch 5 then in ATL.

I don't think she is retiring - CNN is celebrating 25 years and they are doing some kind of special this weekend. They are probably doing some kind of montage or history on her now since she is their afternoon anchor.

Actually, she is retiring

The veteran political reporter will leave when her contract expires in June, opting to pursue other projects and act as a consultant and occasional contributor to CNN.

"This gives me the opportunity to sit back, take a deep breath and think about what I want to do," Woodruff told the Associated Press. "I do want to stay in journalism. I'm not leaving journalism. I'm just leaving daily journalism."

CNN President Jon Klein says Woodruff was offered a new contract and several new projects but made her decision before negotiations even began.

And just 'cause I remember her from her days in Atlanta, here's a bio
