BRENT SADLER | FORMER CHAIRMAN N1 EDITORIAL BOARD

As an internationally recognised and award-winning journalist at the heart of world news coverage over 25 years, Brent Sadler was uniquely positioned to lead N1 – the Adria region's first flagship news network.

He joined CNN in 1991 after 10 years as a news reporter for the British network Independent Television News (ITN) where he was their Middle East Correspondent.

After years of reporting from the turmoil and danger of armed conflicts, including the break-up of the former Yugoslavia, Sadler’s role at N1 enabled him to experience the management side of television news although he continued to appear on-screen during breaking news stories.
