Amanpour CNN Map (Element #28176)

CNN's Chief International Correspondent Christiane Amanpour launched her new live global interview program on September 21, 2009, with the aim setting the agenda for a new global conversation. Debategraph is working with Amanpour to map this conversation online.



Amanpour runs Monday to Thursday at 2100 CET, with a round-up of the best of the week on Fridays on CNN International and Sundays on CNN in the United States.

The program aims to offer multiple perspectives and uncommon voices. It will set the news agenda, create media interest, social networking buzz and demonstrate Amanpour's unique ability to address the world's most compelling issues.

The guests include global leaders, heads of state and cultural icons. Amanpour will interview in a style that will awaken interest in unexpected topics, and serve as the hub for a global community of inquiring minds, hungry for a more daring perspective and a strong, clear, thoughtful take on international stories.

"I want this show to stir the global conscience. I have witnessed so much that it's time to start making real sense of it all," Amanpour says. "I learned to seek facts and to tell the truth no matter how difficult or unpopular, and to not accept a false moral equivalence when none exists. I want to provide a forum for others to do the same." 

Each episode will primarily focus on one topic -- newsworthy and often provocative -- and will feature guests who challenge and deconstruct conventional wisdom. Amanpour will mobilize conversation, encourage debate and facilitate change through these thought-provoking interviews and analysis.

Debategraph is working with the Amanpour production team and viewers to create collaboratively editable debate maps around the interviews and global issues addressed in the programs – and to provide a forum for non-linear, interactive and cumulative debate to complement the program’s analysis and interviews.
