CNN anchor Jim Acosta has left the network. He spent some of his formative years at WBIR
Acosta, who worked at Knoxville's NBC affiliate WBIR from 1995 to 1998, was a prominent face of CNN until his sudden departure this week. He was known for holding President Donald Trump to account. Acosta left CNN after he was offered a midnight timeslot instead of his current daytime show.
