CNN+ was a short-lived subscription streaming service and online news channel owned by the CNN division of WarnerMedia News & Sports. It was launched on March 29, 2022 and was shut down on April 28, 2022. Designed as an offshoot of the CNN television channel, the service carried a daily lineup of live news programming, as well as original series and documentaries drawn from the channel's library, and an "interactive community". Some of its programming was hosted by existing CNN personalities, while CNN also hired Fox News journalist Chris Wallace to host an interview program for the service.

The launch of CNN+ came amid the merger of WarnerMedia with Discovery Inc. to form Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD), which was completed in early April. On its launch, CNN+ received mixed reviews, while it was reported that fewer than 10,000 people were using CNN+ on a daily basis. On April 21, 2022, new CNN head Chris Licht and WBD's head of streaming J.B. Perrette announced that CNN+ would be discontinued effective April 28, 2022 (only 30 days after its original launch), citing the service as being incompatible with the company's goal of having one streaming service to encompass all WBD properties.
