Welcome!

Hi, I’m Poppie Mphuthing! I’m a news anchor, correspondent, producer, social media strategist and editorial lead.

Currently, I am a U.S. Correspondent and fill-in anchor for CGTN America based in Washington D.C.

I cover major headline stories, delivering live newsroom analysis, deploying to the field for breaking news and producing story packages.

I’ve contributed my expertise to newsrooms and editorial teams across the US, Europe and Africa covering national and global news and politics. Having lived in London, Johannesburg, New York City, Geneva and San Francisco for extensive periods, I am adaptable and a good fit in various newsroom environments.

I have a consistent track record contributing my expertise to editorial teams that move fast to innovate and iterate, breaking barriers in storytelling and content development trends.

The recipient of an Extraordinary Ability Green Card, over the last decade I have established my reputation in the United States as an on-camera talent, editorial lead and social media strategist. I am a proud alumna of Columbia Journalism School in the City of New York.
