Re: Kaitlin Collins. While I enjoy Kailin Collins and think she is good at her job, I wish someone would tell her how to pronounce the word “impoRTant”. I am noticing more and more people are saying something is “impoddant”, they do not include the RT. Otherwise, keep up the good work.
Hi Kaitlan!
I am so happy that you have moved forward in television journalism at CNN with your TV show The Source but I think that you should use a different strategy for your television advertising and recognition. I think that you should channel Game Of Thrones as a format for your network announcements in order to set yourself as different from other journalists. In a quick humorous format, I think you should appear in these ads dressed as a queen with crown and scepter declaring yourself as more powerful than most women. Another format is the female suite of armor with sword approach where you decree that you must be addressed as Diva Kaitlan or the punishment must be severe. By all means, be humorous and quick witted about the approach but it is the quick attention getter that you want to focus on.
Kaitlan Collins is beautiful, smart, and a real asset to CNN. I love watching her at night on CNN. She can handle herself just fine and can’t wait to see what she will do in the future.
I think Kaitlyn just go back to Tucker Carlson. She talks over people and is not that good compared to other gr8 hosts on CNN
According to https;//coruptico .com one hundred and and twenty five of CNN executitives are Jewish and the top ten late-night talk show hosts are Jewish as are many politicians and and business people like entertainment , music actors etc. I am searching for an answer to no avail . Please don’t insult me by a raging anti- semitic railing .
I agree that Katlin Collins is atttractive , another comment was that she may have had surgey to get the Dr, Spocks smirk grin. She appears oily and i hypothize that CNN may be in for an unexpected surprise . I aggee that she , to some , is attractive I don’t think that it would not become socially involve with Katlin for $ 3.00000 or more . I recognize that Katlan has been with her boyfriend for eight years plus . so , maybe i am wrong.
Kaitlyn is a Megan Kelly wannabe…she is too abrasive, nasty and rude. Walter Cronkite would never act like that. And what’s with the Joker smile???
I only watched CNN last to see the town hall with former president Trump. Kaitlan Collins was totally rude in speaking with the former president. She kept repeating her questions interrupting his replies. Totally disrespectful. Bad night for CNN.
I don’t need a 30 y/o anchoring a prime-time show. It’s obvious what’s going on. I watched CNN when Laura Coates had the slot. I expect anchors to be experienced and have advanced education. To eliminate Laura Coates shows exactly what’s going on. I do not care for K Collins who is both inexperienced in journalism and life as well as has a basic undergraduate degree. Stop showing favoritism to your golden girl because it won’t help your ratings.
We are sooo tired of Kaitlin Collins. She talks in paragraphs, not sentences, and goes on and on ad nauseam. Hate her on the morning show and we are sure she was instrumental in the firing of Don Lemon, whom we have followed for years. When will she be shuttled to a later day show, instead of seeing her when we get up every morning?
I feel that Kaitlan Collins is one of the best on CNN. Please keep her. She starts my day off great.
I think Kaitlin Collins is just the best reporter. I like Jake Tapper also. They are the main reasons I watch CNN. Kaitlin is smart, beautiful, and an excellent reporter. Jake too has always been truly professional.
I enjoy Kaitlan Collins as she is down-to-earth and asks the most competent questions of all the female hosts on all the cable channels. She’s in my prayers.
Oh didn’t know she had blue eyes.
When I first saw Ms. Kaitlan Collins on TV, I knew I had seen that familiar face before. I was puzzled and curious-where was it that I had seen her. As a world traveler, I searched my memory and it came to me. I saw her at the Louvre in Paris. She was my Mona Lisa in Paris.
I always stop everything I am doing around the house, to watch Kate. She really knows what the facts are! She’s a real go getter. And she reminds me of my grand daughter.
Hi,
My wife and I are Canadian seniors, both respectful admirers of young Ms. Collins. We are never in doubt of her meaning, she seems to stick close to the center in her questions and comments- unlike most journalists these days. She’s young, but entirely deserving of her own time slot on CNN, simply because at present she’s the best in the business, way ahead of Cuomo, Cooper, Blitzer, Lemon and the like. Also, she’s probably underpaid.
One more thing, I object to anyone calling her smile a ‘smirk’. It’s more like a Mona Lisa smile, don’t you think??
Yeah ken, you are probably one of the40% of the US and the 23% of Cdn’s that belief the the world was created six thousand yerar ago . Katlin Collins is oily , watch what happens over the next few years .
I really like Kaitlyn but her fiance leans towards the right.
Kaitlan is the best out there today. And the best I’ve seen since the 60’s when I first started watching political news. She’s going places.
Kaitlin exudes confidence and comes across as a very polished speaker.
She is gorgeous and intelligent.

Kaitlin exhibits that elusive essential of all good journalists–poise and precise diction. Clearly in control of herself and the moment at all times. This requires personal discipline and respect for the viewing public. A model for anyone wishing to enter the broadcast news universe.
Congratulations young lady.
I would just like to meet Kaitlin Colllins just one time
I admire your colossal buns! (-:
Hi Kaitlin,
You are a very good journalist, poised, dressed very well, and really on top of your game. Also, you are so attractive it is unreal, you are the complete package. I hope that soon you get your own shown on CNN.
Tim
Ms. Kaitlan Collins is a beautiful woman working for CNN as a White House correspondent, reporting news with a charming voice in the yard of White House. I admire her so much that I always record her reporting session to review at night.
I am so happy Caitlin Collins is there to answer the tuff questions. She is a very beautiful lady with a good brain on her shoulders. I do feel sorry when Trump gives her a hard time.
Hey Dr. Fritzner Bechette ,
I already have replied , and it is not showing up , what u?
Her voice is so great and sweet. Anytime I hear her voice on CNN, I leave whatever I am doing to go and listen to her talk about news around the whites house.
Me too!
I do too. Kaitlan is very interesting and her voice is very recognizable.
yes I agreed with you, her voice is very attractive
I’m 75 and hard of hearing but man does Kaitlin come through loud and clear in every respect. So articulate and so cogent and succinct. And she presents herself so tastefully in dress and appearance.
I’m glad that others feel the same way about this very professional young woman.
Must admit Kaitlan Collins has got it all. An excellent talent in journalism. So confident, well presented….definitely an asset to CNN and the world of journalism. Keep it up K.
She’s another strong woman. Is that Trump who can’t handle her.
I foresee this young lady moving to the top of broadcasting.
She is the “complete package” and finally, CNN has a golden girl! One of the best if not “the best in her field already.”
I am an admirer of Ms Collins, she is the ultimate professional. In additional to her knowledge and beauty she is one of the best dressed journalist on CNN
This winter I am admiring her beautiful turtleneck sweaters, the colors are great. I live in an area that don’t have upscale styles and would love to know where to buy so that I can gift my daughter a couple for her upcoming birthday
Thanks
She is awesome to me and although the president is rude and disrespectful to women and her. KEEP doing your job and ASKING the right questions. He may not answer but at least you put it out there. GOOD job Ms. Collins.
Todd must be a moron to belittle the observation of Mike McCollum. He is not wrong to observe many talented attractive women are in the news journalism business today.
I think Kaitlan has success writen all over her. I am so impressed with her professionalism and sharp quick responses. I am so excited for her quick growth into to the CNN family. She fits right
Hi, aim Jacob and a Service Member. I appreciate Ms Collin’s great job as a WH correspondence. I would like to kindly invite MS Collins for lunch here in LA.
Thanks.
Monotone voice and talks too fast.
She is another young woman journalist that looks like a movie star. These days, If you’re not hot, don’t even think about a career in TV journalism. But, I’m not one who minds because I still enjoy watching smart, gorgeous women. If only I was born 25 or 30 years ago.
Pervert
Kaitlan was a great Chief White House Correspondent. She is obviously an intelligent, attractive woman who succinctly communicates important, relevant information.
I believe Kaitlan should be or go where the action is, not sequestered behind a desk with two other correspondents for a morning tv news show.
Smart and will go far.
Robert, that is how I see it also. She asks the hard questions that the viewers want to ask themselves
Kaitlyn, I think you are fine also. I like you better with lipstick.
CNN chyron says she works for them now. Only a month after she was last on Tucker’s nightly show.
