- Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, Vinci girls, but our boy has left CNN to stay with Matrix. On the upside, all Matrix episodes are available online. I'm going to miss him speaking in English. But we might get an occasional "cameo" if something happens in Italy, like CNN is prone to do with former employees. He was also given an executive news ( Read more... )

Fuck. That does say he's leaving CNN. :(

Any word on who they got to replace Vinci as CNN Bureau Chief? (I'm having crazy ideas that CNN is downsizing and closing the bureau in Rome and will now rely on Vinci on a event-by-event basis. :O Which is not bad. Which sort of reminds me of how we wrote of him in Prequel. But oooomigod. I can't believe this.)

Oh no. =( Why can't Mediaset have an international channel too? Damn.

None yet. They can go and not have a bureau chief in Rome and just rely on traveling reporters and the Vatican analyst. OMG, this does kind of mirror what we've written about him. Right up to the daughter. And even the preference for wide mouths. Hahahaha.

Wait. Daughter? What daughter? :o (It's kind of cool that we're such clairvoyants, though. XD)

Who's the Vatican analyst now? :o

I thought I told you he has a daughter? I guess I didn't. Eeps. ^^;;;; Her name's Kaya.

Still John Allen. I don't see Delia Gallagher around anymore, though I remember, for a while, she got promoted to reporter at some point.

I just edited and added a link to his goodbye letter.

PS: Sorry for the double comment. I can't edit comments anymore since I stopped my paid account. A feature I miss.
