Karine Jean-Pierre left, Suzanne Malveaux right.

In what is the correct move, CNN is limiting the assignments of CNN National Correspondent Suzanne Malveaux.

Malveaux is the partner of newly appointed White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre.

The network is limiting Malveaux from covering certain topics connected to politics.

"Suzanne Malveaux will continue in her role as CNN National Correspondent covering national/international news and cultural events but will not cover politics, Capitol Hill, or the White House while Karine Jean-Pierre is serving as White House Press Secretary," Matt Dornic, CNN’s spokesperson.

Word is that CNN boss Chris Licht made the decision to limit Malveaux’s assignments.

It is doubtful if previous CNN head Jeff Zucker would have done the same.
