Matthew Chance
Matthew Chance is a senior international correspondent for CNN based in Moscow. Previously, he worked for CNN in their London bureau. Major stories he has covered, for CNN, include: the 2005 London Bombings, the U.S. War in Afghanistan, the ongoing Middle East crisis, the Beslan school siege, and the Asian Tsunami.
Chance officially joined CNN in 2001, after correspondent Steve Harrigan famously left CNN for Fox News while on assignment in Northern Afghanistan. He replaced Harrigan in Northern Afghanistan, and the rest, as they say, is history. He was also a journalist for The Independent in the 1990s.
