Fox News typically leads cable news in prime-time viewers and CNN is under new leadership with Chris Licht. In many ways, the stakes have never been higher, and there’s no better place to explore this moment than MSNBC. In a statement, Wagner said, “I’m honored to be anchoring a key hour of television in such a critical time for American democracy. She knows everything from foreign policy to culture.” Jones told Variety’s Brian Steinberg that Wagner has “got something to say,” adding, “She knows politics. Jones told Mullin that Maddow was not consulted on who would host the show Tuesday through Friday. I really want the takeaway from this show to be a better understanding of what’s happening in the world.” In an interview with The New York Times’ Benjamin Mullin, Jones said, “This is not a show where our hair is on fire and we’re yelling past each other, and we’re creating these manufactured moments of tension. While Maddow is known for her strong opinions, MSNBC’s choice appears to be in line with the kind of show Maddow has hosted since 2008. and abroad will help our audiences contextualize what matters.” Her unique perspective - built on more than two decades in journalism - and tenacious reporting in the U.S. In a statement, MSNBC president Rashida Jones said, “Alex Wagner in the 9pm hour was a clear choice. Guest hosts have been filling in for the past several months. It was also earlier this year that Maddow and MSNBC announced Maddow would cut back on her prime-time show, and that led to speculation on who might be her replacement. She also served as a special correspondent for CBS News and co-host of “CBS This Morning: Saturday.” Previously, she was a senior editor at The Atlantic. She stepped away from the network in 2015 to work on other projects, including as co-host of Showtime’s “The Circus,” before returning to MSNBC in February as a senior political analyst and guest anchor. Wagner hosted a daytime program on MSNBC for several years starting in 2011. The selection might come as a surprise to some, but it’s a logical one. But Wagner will host Tuesday through Friday on her own show, which will be named soon.
Maddow, who is cutting way back on her show to concentrate on other projects for NBCUniversal, will still host the program - “The Rachel Maddow Show” - on Monday nights and make regular appearances whenever there’s major news. Just my ramblings.In a long-anticipated announcement, MSNBC has picked a permanent replacement for Rachel Maddow’s much-coveted weeknight prime-time spot.Īlex Wagner, an MSNBC veteran, has been chosen to take over one of the more valuable pieces of real estate, so to speak, in cable news: 9 p.m. The FJB side can create real crises… as in food shortages, to gain control. As for Russia? Well you can see it from her. China to “stabilize” the West Coast and the EU/UN for the East Coast. At the local level… what happens? How does one break martial law in that circumstance? There are some allied states that would have common cause, but this isn’t North-South but Rwanda…not the English Civil War. The FJ Biden admin has the desire to back up and lend support to ultra-leftists… covertly if need be. They have already shown that there can be coordination and communication to achieve their actions. That money can equip a lot of people to do anything in the way of “direct action”. How about the hundreds of millions of dollars in BLM hands? That’s a lot of money to develop a following… an army in waiting that has proven the ease of burning and looting during 2020 riots.
Remember during Obama how corporations were given discount penalties if they “donated” there required payments to “approved” local groups.
