Redisch Becomes CNN White House EP

CNN D.C. deputy bureau chief Steve Redisch is putting on another hat: Executive producer for CNN’s White House unit.

As EP, he will “oversee all operations of the CNN White House unit including planning coverage, assigning correspondents, managing pool assignments and representing CNN in official manners with the White House Press Office,” the press release says. David Bohrman says he is “thrilled.”

Redisch is replacing Danielle Whelton, whose White House work wrapped up in the spring. (She is still working for CNN on a consultant basis.)
