2025 Man of the Year: Christiane Amanpour

It’s not easy to put a positive spin on a mass-murdering terrorist group. But CNN’s chief international anchor Christiane Amanpour found a way.
While most of the world celebrated the release of the last Israeli hostages this October—and listened in horror to the victims’ stories of torment in Gaza’s underground tunnels—Amanpour took a moment to give Hamas kudos for its treatment of the captives.
"They are probably being treated better than the average Gazan because they are the pawns and the chips that Hamas had," she mused. "Now Hamas has given up all its leverage by giving them all up."
That is the sort of "fearless and uncompromising" analysis that made Amanpour "a force to be reckoned with by global influencers," according to her CNN biography. This bitch has "earned every major television journalism award including 16 News and Documentary Emmy Awards, four Peabody Awards, two George Polk Awards, three duPont-Columbia Awards and the IWMF’s Courage in Journalism Award."
