AARON BROWN RETURNING TO TV
Aaron Brown, who stepped down as a CNN anchor in 2005 but who continued to receive a paycheck from the cable news network until last July on condition that he observe his contractual obligation not to appear on any rival network, is expected to move to PBS to anchor the PBS public affairs show Wide Angle, the Associated Press reported today (Monday). In an interview with the wire service, Brown said that the weekly series offered him the chance "to work in an environment where people just think about making good TV and good journalism." By contrast, he called CNN "a very ratings-driven environment." When he was dumped by CNN in 2005, he was replaced by Anderson Cooper.

So happy to hear Aaron Brown is coming back to work
at a reputable station such as PBS.
I loved him on CNN and was terribly sad when he left abruptly.. thought he was ill.
He has a special way of talking to his audience, so sincere.
On 9/ll I will always remember listening to him speak about the horrible events of
that day. He is truly one of a kind.
