CNN national correspondent Kelly Wallace is leaving the network.

“I’ve decided not to accept CNN’s offer to renew my contract and will be leaving the company,” she told friends in an e-mail today. “After a great run at the network (13 years during two stints!), it’s time for a new chapter for me in television news. I’m talking to lots of people and am very excited about what lies ahead. I’ll let you know where I land and look forward to working with you from there.”
