Roadrunner 212 Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 I don't know, IMO progressives who watch mainstream news will keep their pressure on MSNBC to uplift more of their voices so a more centrist/"old Republican" voice would incite a lot of disappointment. CNN isn't doing too hot in its vanilla direction, so MSNBC knows that they've cornered their mainstream progressive wing. If Maddow, who's basically the most progressive primetime host in their lineup (I consider Joy and Ari part of their "pre-primetime") really departs, neither Brian nor Nicolle would make for the right replacement, and no one else in their lineup runs a show like her either. If Maddow does depart, I think Joy Reid would be promoted, as mentioned above. And then promote Tiffany Cross to Joy's slot. Then expand Jonathan's weekend thing and help him establish his niche of breaking weekly news down (for one, he's on PBS NewsHour on Fridays, so he already has that kind of Sunday morning show vibe). I don't anticipate a new hire from outside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MorningNews 1289 Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 While it’s likely she could definitely leave, the situation in that story reads like classic contract negations. Rachel has total leverage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carolinanews4 316 Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 In a pretty lengthy interview with Deadline, MSNBC President Rashida Jones said that Rachel Maddow's show "will continue as she's doing it now." Jones seems to be positioning Maddow's new contract as one that allows Maddow to expand her interests while keeping her nightly gig. https://deadline.com/2021/09/msnbc-president-rashida-jones-interview-rachel-maddow-future-network-plans-1234823243/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
