CNN confirmed to us today that Stephen Frazier is no longer with CNN International.

Since joining CNN Worldwide in 1993, he served as Senior Correspondent for CNN Presents, Senior Correspondent and co-anchor of Impact, weekend anchor for CNN Domestic, anchor for Headline News, and most recently anchor for CNN International's Your World Today and World News programs.

While Anjali Rao hosted the last hour of CNN Today HK from Hong Kong, Stephen Frazier is hosting this hour from Atlanta. Thinking there might be technical problems in HK, they do have a guest on live currently from HK so who knows? Update: Anjali is back for the third hour.

A busy couple of days for CNN in the UK. Yesterday just before 0700 gmt, CNN International broke news of a suspected attempted car bombing in Central London. CNN/I stayed in breaking news mode for most of the day and evening, with special reports from CNN bureaus and teams on the ground in London including Charles Hodson, Becky Anderson and International Security Correspondent Paula Newton.

Then today, Rosemary Church broke into the start of International Correspondents at 1500 gmt to cross immediately to CNN/US, who were covering breaking news of what is now being called a terrorist attack at Glasgow Airport near Glasgow, Scotland after a car drove straight through glass doors and into the terminal building, bursting into flames. The aiport is closed and all flights are cancelled. CNN/I continued with its own coverage for the next few hours, with Rosemary Church and later Stephen Frazier in Atlanta, with pictures from Sky News and Alphonso Van Marsh contributing live from London.

Live coverage continued past 1900 gmt. At 1900 gmt, in a rare move, Fionnula Sweeney presented World News from the London studio, where the breaking news coverage conitnued. Usually no live programming comes from the London studio at the weekend.

Stephen Frazier took over in Atlanta at 2000 gmt, and both Stephen and Fionnula were anchoring at 2100 gmt as breaking news coverage continued.

(On a personal level, I'm going to bed now so can't watch any more. My parents were due to fly out of Glasgow Airport tomorrow to visit me in London for the first time in 3 years. I don't see that happening now)

This month's Inside The Middle East has caused a bit of a stir. The edition comes from Bahrain, and in the first item, Hala Gorani looks at the "hidden" poor population of Bahrain.

I caught an airing of the programme at 1330 gmt today on CNN/I. The show ended just after 1350 gmt, much earlier than usual. Then, Stephen Frazier at the CNN Centre studio appeared to talk about the first item in the show. He said that the Bahrain government has disputed the contents of the first item of the show. He went on to say that while CNN stands by the report, they felt that the Bahrain government should have the right to reply on CNN/I.

He then introduced an interview conducted by Rosemary Church in Atlanta, talking to a Bahrain government official in Manama who put across the government's view of the items in the report. This lasted around 5 or 6 minutes.
