Christiane Amanpour is leaving CNN after 43 years with the network. The journalist built her career reporting on wars and political upheaval across several continents. Her work took her from Bosnia to the Middle East, among other major conflict zones. Her departure is being linked to the saying, 'Where there is war, there is also Amanpour.' She became a recognizable television presence through on-the-ground coverage of major international events. Amanpour says she is preparing to begin the next stage of her career. The announcement did not identify her next employer, role or timetable.
