Unauthorized CNN Anniversary Party Attracts CNN Alumnus and Current CNNers

On Saturday night there will be a party in honor of CNN’s 30th Anniversary at the National Press Club. But CNN is not hosting it. Technically (and strangely, even to those who are attending), it’s a private affair that has attracted little reaction or attention from CNN. The guest list comprises present and past employees – mostly past.

An announcement for the event reads: *This is a private effort and is not sponsored by CNN.”

Elissa Free, a former CNN producer between 1980 and 2001, is the party’s organizer.
