Carol Costello Announces Departure From CNN (The Washington Free Beacon)

CNN host Carol Costello, who hosts the daily show "Newsroom" from 9 to 11 a.m., announced Monday that she will be leaving the network and moving to Los Angeles to join HLN.

"Friday will be my last day at CNN. I'm not leaving the family, though. I'll be heading to Los Angeles to anchor a new show on HLN," Costello emotionally told her viewers.

Costello explained the decision was a personal one that she was making to be closer to her husband, who had moved to Los Angeles last year.
