CNN Boss Credits Ozempic for 50-Pound Weight Loss

CNN CEO Chris Licht's 50-pound weight loss, which he attributed to his strict diet and exercise regimen, was actually aided by the controversial weight loss drug Ozempic, according to sources. Licht allegedly touted the drug to colleagues as early as 2021 and even boasted about using it. Ozempic, which treats Type 2 diabetes and suppresses appetite, has been used by celebrities such as Sharon Osbourne and Chelsea Handler. Licht's reign at CNN has been hit by internal turmoil, but he told staffers on Monday that he is staying on as CEO.
