BNN Bloomberg’s Jon Erlichman Announces Decision to Step Down from Anchor Role

TORONTO (September 23, 2024) – Longtime BNN Bloomberg anchor Jon Erlichman announced today his decision to step away from the anchor desk to pursue new opportunities. Erlichman’s final broadcast as anchor airs Monday, Sept. 30. Beginning in 2025, Erlichman is set to make frequent appearances as a Financial Commentator on BNN Bloomberg, CTV News Channel, and iHeartRadio Canada news/talk stations. “I started my career at BNN Bloomberg when this network went on the air in 1999, and I’ve since had the good fortune of spending the majority of the last 25 years with BNN, CTV News, and our Bloomberg partners. But I’ve decided it’s time for a change,” said Erlichman. “I want to thank all of my colleagues at BNN Bloomberg and CTV News for the teamwork, dedication, and professionalism they demonstrate every day. I’ll miss working alongside this great team, but it’s not goodbye. I’m very much looking forward to my next chapter as a Financial Commentator starting in the new year.” “Jon is an exceptional journalist who has been instrumental in BNN Bloomberg’s development into Canada’s definitive source for business news coverage,” said Richard Gray, VP News, Bell Media. “We will greatly miss Jon’s skill as an anchor, reporter, and a leader in our newsroom. We wish Jon nothing but the best in his new career endeavours, and we look forward to continuing to have him join us regularly as a multi-platform contributor.” Erlichman’s career with BNN Bloomberg began with the channel’s launch in 1999, when it was known as ROBTV. He moved to the United States in 2005, where he covered high-profile business and breaking news stories as an anchor and reporter, first for Bloomberg Television and later for ABC News. Since making his return to Bell Media in March 2016, he has played a key role hosting BNN Bloomberg’s daily financial news coverage, appeared as a correspondent and fill-in anchor for CTV NATIONAL NEWS, and delivered in-depth interviews with leaders across numerous industries, including finance, politics, media, tech, and more.
