Jen Psaki Gets Nightly Prime-Time Show at MSNBC
Published On Feb 24, 2025, 1:20 PM
MSNBC is undergoing a significant shake-up, highlighted by Jen Psaki's new role as the host of a nightly prime-time show starting at 9 p.m. Tuesday through Friday, replacing Alex Wagner. Rachel Maddow will reduce her weekly hosting to one night, while Joy Reid's 7 p.m. program has been canceled and will be succeeded by a trio of hosts: Symone Sanders Townsend, Michael Steele, and Alicia Menendez. This reorganization reflects MSNBC's strategy to refresh its programming lineup and attract new viewers.
