The dynamics in the race leading up to the election in November have been among the
most interesting in our lifetimes and few would be better positioned to
provide a view than Abby Phillip. Abby today anchors NewsNight with Abby Phillip airing
weeknights at 10pmET. A Harvard graduate with an impressive news media career, she
joined CNN in 2017 to cover the Trump administration as White House Correspondent
through 2019 and has continued her focus on U.S. political events since.

David Leavy is a 23-year veteran at Discovery and later Warner Bros. Discovery and today,
as COO of CNN, oversees commercial, operational, technology and promotional activities
at the leading global news network. David, as well, has some “inside baseball” as a former
Senior Director of Public Affairs for the National Security Council in the Clinton White
House.

We are expecting an interesting and lively discussion, followed by a get-together with light snacks and drinks.
