MSNBC Fires Three of Their Top Liberal Hosts

MSNBC confirmed Monday that host Jen Psaki will move into a new primetime slot as part of a major network shakeup that also sees the departure of Trump-critical anchor Joy Reid.

Psaki, the former press secretary for President Joe Biden, will assume 9 p.m. EDT duties Tuesday through Friday from current host Alex Wagner, starting in late April, the network announced.

The overhaul, spearheaded by new president Rebecca Kutler, also includes the cancellation of weekend shows hosted by Ayman Mohyeldin, Jonathan Capehart, Katie Phang, and Jose Diaz-Balart, the New York Post reported.

Kutler’s reshuffling of the anchor lineup comes on the heels of Sunday’s leak that Joy Reid is being let go. Her show, The ReidOut, will be replaced by the hosts of The Weekend—Michael Steele, Symone Sanders-Townsend, and Alicia Menendez.

Reid, who was set to host her final show on Monday, spoke out about her ousting during a call-in to the “Win With Black Women” podcast.

“I’ve been through every emotion from, you know, anger, rage, disappointment, hurt, you know, a feeling that, you know, guilt. You know, that I let my team lose their jobs,” Reid said during the Zoom call Sunday night.

Psaki will take over Rachel Maddow’s time slot once the network’s highest-paid host returns to airing just one show a week on Mondays. Previously, Maddow was required by the network to host five days a week during the first 100 days of the Trump administration.
