MSNBC finalized its revamped schedule on Monday, promoting progressive anchors Jen Psaki and Symone Sanders-Townsend to primetime
while booting its largely non-white weekend lineup of hosts off their namesake shows.
Anchors #Jonathan #Capehart
#Katie #Phang, and #Ayman #Mohyeldin are losing their eponymous weekend shows.
Capehart and Mohyeldin will instead be one of multiple hosts of separate editions of "The Weekend" at 7 a.m. and 6 p.m., respectively,
while Phang will remain with the network as a legal correspondent with no anchor slot.
Its other Miami-based anchor, #José #Díaz-#Balart, will also lose his show, though he will remain as host of NBC’s weekend edition of Nightly News.
Psaki will replace Alex Wagner’s Tuesday through Friday 9 p.m. hour in April after #Rachel #Maddow completes her five-day-a-week stint during President Donald Trump’s first 100 days, MSNBC president Rebecca Kutler announced on Monday.
Wagner will stay on as a senior political analyst
