Former Obama Advisor David Axelrod Joins CNN
Former senior advisor to President Barack Obama and MSNBC political analyst David Axelrod has joined CNN as a political commentator.
CNN Washington Bureau Chief Sam Feist announced the decision Thursday morning on Twitter.
Thrilled to announce that @DavidAxelrod is joining @CNN as a #CNNPolitics contributor. A fantastic addition to our political team.
— Sam Feist (@SamFeistCNN) September 3, 2015
A few minutes later, Axelrod himself weighed in on the move.
Axelrod joined MSNBC and NBC as a political contributor in 2013. Presumably this move marks the end of that relationship, but NBC has not yet weighed in. This piece will be updated when they do.
