A major CNN morning news anchor who left the network last month amid a ratings slide is now set to join Fox News Channel, TVNewser.com reports.

John Roberts, who anchored CNN “American Morning,” was originally set to join CNN’s Atlanta bureau after he moved there to be closer to his fiance and fellow CNN reporter Kyra Phillips. But instead of setting up shop at CNN, he’ll be reporting for Fox from the same city.

TVNewser.com says Roberts will be “reporting on major domestic and international stories for the network.” A news veteran, he joined CNN in 2006 after spending 14 years at CBS and is considered a “top-notch journalist.”

You might want to start with the correct name.

John Roberts is a good journalist.

Not to worry. Keep in mind that Bill Hemmer once worked for CNN, Brit Hume for ABC (in fact, was their top Washington and Presidential reporter), and Bernie Goldberg worked for CBS.

A major CNN morning news anchor...

Isn't that a contradiction in terms?

What constitutes a "major" news anchor at CNN? Someone who has viewers outside his or her immediate family?

I can’t stand Gretchen Carlson....so bossy and such the know-it-all...I liked Chetry...good personality and not nearly as b*itchy as Gretchen.

I like her, but I see her as struggling to ensure that the real point gets across. Too many of the FOX peeps are trying to play the fair and balanced, and actually appearing to be more unfair and unbalanced. I don’t mind the bossy and know-it-all if it actually disseminates the truth.
