About Starting Point
In the wake of "American Morning," the decade-long a.m. news block whose ratings fizzled, CNN created two programs -- "Early Start" with Ashleigh Banfield and Zoraida Sambolin, followed by "Starting Point," which features the return to morning duty of Soledad O'Brien (who, ironically, co-anchored "American Morning" for four years). "Starting Point," as expected for a breakfast-time news show, keeps tabs on the day's big headlines and newsmakers but also delves into overlooked story angles and seeks to challenge conventional viewpoints.
