In 2011, Burnett transitioned back to CNN, launching her own primetime news program titled “Erin Burnett OutFront.” The show rapidly gained traction for its in-depth reporting and sharp financial analysis, helping to solidify her reputation as one of the leading female anchors in business journalism.
Beyond her anchoring responsibilities, Burnett has also been recognized for her investigative journalism and international reporting. Some of her most notable documentaries include “City of Money and Mystery” (2008), “India Rising: The New Empire,” “The Russian Gamble,” and “Dollars & Danger: Africa, The Final Investment Frontier” (2009). She also presented “On Assignment – Iraq” and “Big Money in the Middle East” (2010).
One of Burnett’s most impactful investigations focused on Transammonia, a chemical company found to be conducting business through a fully owned subsidiary in Iran. Her report shed light on these dealings, prompting significant attention and subsequent changes in business practices. This piece earned her an Emmy nomination for outstanding investigative journalism.
