The communicator and political advisor at CNN, Alice Stewart, was found dead in the Bellevue neighborhood, in the state of Virginia, at the age of 58. The death of the analyst, who worked on several electoral campaigns for the United States Republican Partyis being investigated by police authorities.
At the moment, the agents seem to rule out the existence of any violent act and point to a possible health problem as the cause of death. Mark Thompson, the chain’s CEO, announced the tragic news with a corporate email to all company workers.
Alice was a dear friend and colleague to all of us at CNN. A political veteran and Emmy-winning journalist who brought an incomparable spark to CNN coverage, known throughout our offices not only for her political insights, but also for her unwavering kindness. “Our hearts are broken by such an extraordinary loss,” he wrote.
Her professional career began as a reporter at a Georgia network and, later, she became the anchor of a news format. From there she became communications director for Mike Huckabee, the governor of Arkansas. She also held that same position with politicians Michele Bachmann and Rick Santorum, who was also his colleague at CNN. His last political service was running Senator Ted Cruz’s campaign.
It was in 2016 that he joined CNN in the race for president. We invited her to come because we knew we would come out a little smarter at the end of the conversation. She helped our viewers better understand what was happeninglamented the communicator Wolf Blitzer.
