MSNBC president Rashida Jones weighing network exit after Trump is sworn in: report

MSNBC president Rashida Jones is considering leaving the network after President-elect Donald Trump is sworn in to a second term in the White House as the left-leaning channel’s ratings crash, according to a report.

Jones – who took the helm in 2021 and became the first black woman to lead a major national news network – is mulling an exit from the job early next year, according to a report by Oliver Darcy in his Status newsletter.

The move would only come after Trump is sworn in to serve a second term as president on Jan. 20, Darcy reported, citing anonymous sources.

A decision has not yet been made and it is possible nothing will come of it, Darcy wrote.

A spokesperson for Jones denied the report, according to the Status newsletter.

NBC declined to comment.

CNN’s Brian Stelter confirmed the report based on his own sources.

“It’s amazing how people want to spend more time with their families or look for new challenges when the ratings crash,” a TV exec said sarcastically — skeptical that Jones would be leaving the helm on her own accord.

“Of course she’s making the decision,” the TV exec added. “They’re all leaving on their own, Norah O’Donnell, Chris Wallace.”

This DEI academic experiment is coming to a close and the impact will be forever lasting. No longer will the novelty of being the first black, woman, gay, trans, whatever be a resume’ enhancer.

Yeh. So what. We’ve done that before and it didn’t work out so well.
