EPISODES PREMIERE SUNDAY, JULY 28 AT 8PM & 9PM ET/PT
NEW YORK, NY – (July 24, 2024) – The Whole Story with Anderson Cooper, a CNN Original, returns with two hourlong deep dives into the shocking recent events that have redefined the political landscape for the Democratic party in the United States. “Kamala Harris: Making History” and “Joe Biden Passes the Torch” premiere on Sunday, July 28 at 8pm and 9pm ET/PT respectively.
As Vice President Harris kicks off her presidential campaign, “Kamala Harris: Making History” reintroduces the presumptive Democratic nominee to a nation gearing up for one of the most consequential elections in US history. From her upbringing as the daughter of immigrants in Berkeley, California to becoming the first woman to hold the office of vice president, CNN Anchor Abby Phillip traces Harris’s personal and professional journey defined by breaking boundaries and disrupting the political status quo.
In “Joe Biden Passes the Torch,” CNN Anchor and Chief Investigative Correspondent Pamela Brown scrutinizes the shocking turn of events that led to President Biden ending his reelection bid. The episode examines Biden’s four years in office, initially intended to be a transitional leadership, and how whispered concerns about Biden’s age culminated in a crescendo of calls for him to resign his campaign after the CNN presidential debate in June.
The Whole Story with Anderson Cooper is executive produced by Susan Chun.
The Whole Story with Anderson Cooper will stream live for pay TV subscribers via CNN.com, CNN connected TV and mobile apps on Sunday, July 28. “Kamala Harris: Making History” and “Joe Biden Passes the Torch” will also be available on demand beginning Monday, July 29 to pay TV subscribers via CNN.com, CNN connected TV and mobile apps, and Cable Operator Platforms.
