The CNN.com redesign launched over weekend features a prominent new (red) navigation and adds their new “NewsPulse” to the mix.

The design was done by HUGE and the CNN.com team (previously Razorfish and CNN.com).

Other show pages expand upon the content with full-length and segment videos linking to its respective articles. Although there’s nothing really unexpected in this new version of the site, it’s at least a step further along the right track.
