Brian Stelter’s wife pays tribute to husband as final episode of his canceled CNN show airs

BRIAN Stelter’s wife has paid loving tribute to her husband in honor of the final airing of his CNN show Reliable Sources.

Jamie Stelter’s tweet mentioned the “time and care” the journalist put into his 11-year run on the investigative program, which ended on Sunday after 30 years.

“If only everyone knew how much time and care @brianstetler put into every guest booking, every question, every banner you see on the screen,” she said of her husband’s career efforts.

In a reply to her tweet, the NY1 news reporter highlighted how he “has used his platform to shine a light on” journalism and journalists worldwide.

The pair of journalists have been married since 2014.

Brian has spoken to and taught numerous classes, which he “loves” because “he always learns something from them, too” according to Jamie.

Sunday, he devoted the entire hour of his final episode to discussing “change” in the media industry.

Stelter said that Warner Bros, who now owns CNN, will start to see a lot of changes.

He said: “I’m sad that I won’t be here to cover it.”

John Malone, a multimillionaire investor of Warner Bros, was brought up during Sunday’s show as an alleged potential factor in the opinionated show’s cancellation.

In a statement to the New York Times, Malone said that he had “nothing to do with” the cancellation of Mr. Stelter’s show.

Mr. Malone stated he wants “the ‘news’ portion of CNN to be more centrist, but I am not in control or directly involved.”

Despite it all, former CNN Brian Stetler is “forever wanting to do more, do better,” his wife wrote.

Stelter reflected on his time as the host of Reliable Sources, saying: “I’ve been a media junkie for a long time. I was the kid who spent his days building the school website…and deep down inside I think I’m still that kid.

“I never thought I’d actually be on TV. I might have dreamed about it. I never thought it would happen.”

He continued: “I didn’t ever have all the answers. I didn’t even always have all the questions,” he said.

“But it was a gift of a lifetime to get to confront these issues on international television with the backing of CNN.”

The end of Jamie’s string of loving tweets concluded with a sweet confession.

She said that, acting within character, Brian texted her “I love you” while he was in the middle of a live TV interview.

“No one would ever know,” she said.
