The Norwin Star reported that the Pittsburgh-area Norwin School Board voted 5 to 4 on Monday to halt daily broadcasts of CNN 10 during middle school homerooms. Banning CNN 10 was among the campaign promises made by new school board members Christine Baverso, Alexander Detschelt, and Shawna Ilagan, whom parents voted into office in 2021.

Parents have objected to the bias of the program. One said broadcasting it gave her son the message "that CNN is a label you can trust."

"This community voted for change," Tammy Marino of Irwin told the Star. Another parent said school boards "should not be about politics or which political party controls the school board."

Some teachers who attended the school district meeting said they think the board overstepped its bounds in banning CNN 10. One eighth grade social studies teacher said the program "supports the school district's mission statement of civic engagement by the students," according to the Star.
