'''''State of the Union''''', branded as '''''State of the Union with Jake Tapper and Dana Bash''''', is an American [[Sunday morning talk shows|Sunday talk show]] and political discussion television program on [[CNN]] and broadcast around the world by [[CNN International]]. It has been co-anchored by [[Jake Tapper]] since 2015 and [[Dana Bash]] since 2021. It has been broadcast since its debut in January 2009.<br />
<br />
The program is broadcast from 9:00{{nbsp}}am to 10:00{{nbsp}}am ET, with a replay at noon to 1:00{{nbsp}}pm ET from CNN's studios in [[Washington, D.C.]]<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
The program premiered on January 18, 2009, originally with [[John King (journalist)|John King]] as host, and aired from 9:00{{nbsp}}am to 1:00{{nbsp}}pm ET (though only the 9:00{{nbsp}}am and noon ET hours are simulcast on [[CNN International]]) and from 8:00{{nbsp}}pm to 9:00{{nbsp}}pm ET. It features news analysis and interviews with politicians, reporters, and newsmakers, as well as the "[[Multi-Touch Collaboration Wall|Magic Wall]]", an interactive touch screen map previously used by King to cover the [[2008 United States presidential election|2008 presidential election]]. At four hours long, it was by far the longest of the Sunday talk shows. It was created as a merger between ''[[Reliable Sources]]'' and ''[[Late Edition with Wolf Blitzer]]''; ''Reliable Sources'' continued unchanged as a one-hour "segment" of ''State of the Union''. On February 11, 2009, CNN announced it had hired former ''[[Meet the Press]]'' producer Michelle Jaconi as the executive producer of the program.<br />
<br />
On a January 31, 2010, broadcast, John King announced that senior political correspondent [[Candy Crowley]] would become the new anchor of the program,<ref>{{cite press release |title=Candy Crowley to Take Anchor Chair of CNN's State of the Union |url=http://news.turner.com/article_display.cfm?article_id=4946 |website=turner.com |publisher=Turner Newsroom |date=2010-01-31 |access-date=2010-01-31}}</ref> following King's move to take over [[Lou Dobbs]]' [[Lou Dobbs Tonight|former timeslot]].<ref>{{cite press release |title=John King to Helm New Daily Political Program on CNN |url=http://news.turner.com/article_display.cfm?article_id=4808 |publisher=Turner Newsroom |date=2010-11-12 |access-date=2010-01-31}}</ref> In the move, the program was cut from four hours to one, and the ''[[Reliable Sources]]'' "show within a show" was spun off once again as its own program.<br />
<br />
After Crowley left CNN in December 2014, ''State of the Union'' had a series of fill-ins until [[Jake Tapper]] was named permanent host in April 2015.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Jake Tapper named 'State of the Union' host|url=https://www.politico.com/blogs/media/2015/04/jake-tapper-named-state-of-the-union-host-206067|access-date=2015-04-24|website=Politico|date=24 April 2015 }}</ref> In January 2021, CNN announced that [[Dana Bash]] would join Tapper as a co-host, with the two alternating Sundays hosting.<ref>{{Cite web|author=Brian Stelter|title=CNN announces promotions for Jake Tapper, Abby Phillip, Dana Bash and others|url=https://www.cnn.com/2021/01/11/media/cnn-washington-dc-anchors-correspondents/index.html|access-date=2021-01-11|website=CNN|date=11 January 2021 }}</ref><br />
