Brian Stelter is back – and earlier than ever.
The return of “Reliable Sources” officially kicked off Monday, less than a week after CNN announced it had re-hired the polarizing media pundit. The network said Tuesday that he would return to replace Oliver Darcy, who took over “Reliable Sources” when Stelter was fired two years ago.
Stelter’s first comeback edition published Monday at 5:37 a.m., part of a new schedule that will also see it hit the streets five days a week. Darcy’s editions published in the evening, Monday through Thursday.
“Reliable Sources is back after a brief summer vacation — and we’re morning people now!” Stelter wrote.
