Technical issues interrupted CNN’s Inside Politics with Dana Bash for about 25 minutes on Monday.
Anyone tuning in to CNN from 12:05 to about 12:29 p.m. may have encountered a pixelated screen.
Media reporter Brian Stelter posted Bash’s response at about 12:51 p.m., once the broadcast was back up.
“Welcome back and we ARE back,” Bash said. “There was a technical issue across Warner Bros. Discovery’s channels that resulted in losing our signal. We’re very sorry for the interruption.”
