Nikhil Doegun, senior vice president and editor in chief of business news at CNBC, made the following staff announcement on Wednesday:
The past few months have shown us in vivid detail that events outside our borders have a direct impact on U.S. markets and are closely followed by U.S. viewers and users. With that in mind, I’m delighted to announce that Michelle Caruso-Cabrera will be our Chief International Correspondent. This newly created role requires guts and discretion, a sense for storytelling and, at times, a sense of humor. Michelle has all those qualities, and more. This year alone, we have depended on Michelle to interpret and analyze the European financial crisis. Her reporting this summer from Athens, Rome and Frankfurt warned viewers and users early on about the rising risk of default and the consequences for the global economy.
Michelle is one of our most seasoned journalists. She has anchored several shows for the network and has reported extensively from Latin America, Asia, the Middle East and, of course, Europe. She joined us 13 years ago today from WTSP-TV in St. Petersburg, Fl., where she spent four years as a general assignment reporter. Prior to joining WTSP-TV, she was a special projects producer for Univision, where she won a prestigious Emmy Award for her five-part series on children with AIDS.
Please join me in congratulating Michelle on her new assignment.
