Do a search in Google Play.  It's in there.

The Play Store does say that they are working on the video issues in Android 4.3. This is the link to the app. Here (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cnn.mobile.android.phone&hl=en)

I have downloaded the CNN app 4 times but it does not show up on the home screen with all my common used apps. I went to settings, apps and it shows up as being installed. I even uninstalled it and reinstalled it.
I have to leave it open and select it from there.

Hold your finger on the CNN app icon located in your app screen (six dots) middle of the docked launcher.. Holding your finger on any app lcon will allow you to drag it or copy it to the home screen as a shortcut.

I don't know what "the CNN app icon located in your app screen (six dots) middle of the docked launcher" means. I don't understand the six dots or the docked launcher.

I have moved apps around on the main screen.

When on your homescreen.Your app launcher is above the house icon in the middle. It is six dots. Two horizontal lines of three dots. Pressing the six dots will take you to an alphabetical icon list of all your apps. Find the CNN app and hold your finger on it. It should land you on your desktop as a shortcut.
Sorry I am having problems articulating it any better.

bjs229,I can't thank you enough, could not have figured it out without your help. I had no idea what the circle and 6 dots was for!

Glad we got it figured out! Learning Android is a process.
