Whatever happened to...................?

You've not seen Rip Off Britain?


I know it's probably not in the spirit of this thread but most of the people mentioned can just be googled.

For example it only takes a couple of clicks to find out that Sonia Ruseler works for a McDonald's franchisee

A few CNN faces:

Fionnuala Sweeney (hope I got the spelling right there)
Coleen McEdwards
Anjali Rao
Monita Rajpal

Sky News:
Lisa Knights
Andrew Wilson

Andrew Wilson went to work for Arise News for a while, but that was a few years ago, he's now an after dinner speaker I believe.

Lisa Knights is the Group Head of Media at Ashton Gate/Bristol Sport according to her Twitter.

Fionnuala Sweeney works in comms for the Global Health Institute I believe. I've come across her name in my line of work.

CNNI's Bettina Luescher...



...now works for the UN World Food Programme and was even a guest on Letterman a few years go:

In that clip also:

Riz Khan
Ralitsa Vassileva
And Sonia Ruseler again

Riz Khan last hosted his eponymous talk show on Aljazeera English from 2006-2011.
Ralitsa Vassileva after her CNN tenure ended in 2011, would later return to her former home, Bulgarian International Television as news director. Vassileva began her career at BNT prior to her CNN run in the 1980s during the fall of communism in Bulgaria.
Sonia Ruseler is the Director of Communications for Arcos Dorados (trans.: "Golden Arches"), a McDonald's franchisee group covering Latin America and the Caribbean.

Anjali Rao would later move to Australia and the Special Broadcasting System (SBS) and would host SBS Dateline after Yalda Hakim's departure. She left the show in 2014 and has since moved on to Network 10 as a fill-in on The Project and Studio 10 .
Monita Rajpal , after leaving CNN in 2014, has since become a freelance journalist

What is Natasha Kaplinsky up to nowadays? Last i heard she was at ITV London News and presented occasional ITV National bulletins, after leaving Five News in 2011.

I don’t think she has done an ITV News bulletin since Evening News went single-headed a couple of years ago.

What happened to Anna Marie Ashe?

According to her Wikipedia article:

It was 2014 Ralitsa (sadly) left CNNI. Bulgaria International Television is privately owned and was only formed in I think 2015. Her role was based in Chicago. She then went to Copenhagen to work for a think tank, and according to her LinkedIn is now a journalism lecturer at the University of Georgia
