The political correspondent will be taking his talents to Snapchat as Head of News.
Back in January, Snapchat launched its Discover channel, which nestled content from outlets such as CNN, Vice, ESPN, and Comedy Central into the Snapchat ecosystem. The launch of Discover served as yet another signal that Snapchat aims to become more than simply a platform for ephemeral photo and video sharing. In fact, roughly one million viewers now tune into CNN's Discover tab every day, according to the New York Times. So perhaps it's only natural given such reach that the company poached acclaimed CNN political reporter Peter Hamby to head up its news operations.
