Jeff Zucker’s replacement at CNN will be Chris Licht

• Puck first reported the news of Licht's ascension on Saturday morning.
• CNN is expected to launch a subscription streaming service, CNN+, in coming weeks, but sources at Discovery are skeptical of the business model, and say it makes more sense that CNN+ is bundled as a part of Discovery's broader streaming offering.

Details: A longtime friend of Discovery CEO David Zaslav, Licht will be responsible for overseeing CNN's worldwide news division.

• Licht previously served as executive producer of "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" and executive producer of "CBS This Morning." Prior to that, Licht was the executive producer of MSNBC’s “Morning Joe."
