NEW YORK, NY – (January 10, 2024) – The Whole Story with Anderson Cooper, a five-time Emmy® Award-winning CNN Original, returns with a timely special report on the wildfires ravaging Los Angeles County. “LA Burning” with CNN Anchor Anderson Cooper premieres Sunday, January 12 at 8pm ET/PT on CNN.
This week in Los Angeles, whole neighborhoods have been devastated, and tens of thousands of residents have been forced to evacuate since the blazes began.

Millions are living in trying conditions with dangerous air quality and the threat of new windstorms and fires ahead. Cooper also examines how the state of California and the city of Los Angeles have handled this unprecedented emergency, and how this week will impact the future of life in the state.
The Whole Story with Anderson Cooper is executive produced by Susan Chun.
