MSNBC has abruptly cut ties with weekend host Tiffany Cross, opting not to renew her contract after almost two years and severing ties, Mediaite has learned.
Cross, whose Saturday show The Cross Connection was a source of controversy for the network, has not commented publicly on the cancellation. Her production team was told of the decision on Friday. They will remain at the network, a source familiar with the matter told Mediaite, as they currently work on MSNBC’s Sunday show in the same slot.
A source familiar with the decision told Mediaite that comments and coverage from Cross did not adhere to MSNBC’s standards. The source said she was repeatedly told this by the network. The source said this has been an ongoing issue, and concerns have been addressed multiple times.
Cross has stirred controversy for outrageous commentary in recent months. She has repeatedly declared civil war has begun, and as recently as Thursday night in an interview with Charlamagne tha God she called the state of Florida “the dick of the country.”
Cross did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Variety was first to report the news on Friday morning and that “a rotating group of anchors will lead her weekend hours until a replacement is found.”

The Cross Connection would have hit two years on air next month. Her first guest when the show premiered was Democrat “squad” member Rep. Ayanna Pressley, who returned on the one-year anniversary with glowing praise.
Although harsh criticism of Republicans and the right is not out of place at the network, Cross took it to a new level during her time on air, frequently courting outrage and even engaging high profile feuds.

“Her production team was told of the decision on Friday. They will remain at the network...”
“It’s not YOUR fault she’s a halfwit.”
I always was amused when it was said that blacks can’t be racists. Well they are, but they are only started to be called out as such.
Never heard of her.
Is that real or fake........ leather?
Joy Reid is nearly as bad and not far behind we hope.
A lot if light-skinned blacks look down on darker-skinned blacks. They think they are stupid and that they are the only ones capable of speaking for all black people.
She is walking, talking scum.
MSNBC can feel the ground rumble but it’s too little too late.
Store bought.........................
Tucker is smiling.
This is good news. This one here was very dangerous in her tendancy to give a public forum to racist propagandanda and old time racial prejudice. Her guests often tried to dehumanize any other race besides black. She was vicious toward any black conservative and encouraged her guests to call them derogatory names. Fanning the flames of hatred and discontent.
Tiffany was more dangerous than fellow race baiter Joi Reid because of packaging; Tiffany is more attractive, dresses well and speaks with greater articulation. She seemed more professional and thus credible on the surface.
They have standards????
All cut from the same mold, very boring.
This women stars in many of Tuckers videos. She says the most outrageous things. Tucker will have to look elsewhere for the spiciest of BLM propaganda and white hate.
who knew that msnbc had “standards” ...
Exactly! 😁
That’s good stuff there!
MSNBC has STANDARDS?!! Who knew?
“I am surprised she hasn’t dyed her hair blonde.”
Joy Reid has and she’s just as rabid a racist as Cross.
