Deadline: Chloe Melas Joins NBC News After Departure From CNN

Story from Deadline:

Chloe Melas is joining NBC News as an entertainment correspondent based in New York.

Melas has been at CNN, and announced her exit in an Instagram post Wednesday.

“I landed my first job at CNN as a News Assistant right out of college and I loved it so much that I returned 7 years later. Last week, this latest professional chapter came to a close. It has truly been a masterclass in journalism,” she wrote.

Melas will focus on the intersection of entertainment, business and culture and report for all platforms of NBC News, including digital and MSNBC, according to Catherine Kim, senior vice president of NBC News Editorial.

“If you know Chloe by reputation, you know she is a relentless, ambitious, prolific reporter who expands the definition of entertainment reporting,” Kim wrote.

Melas joined CNN in 2016. Before that, she worked at PMC’s Hollywood Life and as anchor at VH1.

She’s the latest CNN personality to join NBC News, a list that includes Laura Jarrett, Ana Cabrera and Ryan Nobles.
