Mediaite reports that MSNBC will announce on Thursday that three shows in their afternoon lineup will be cancelled.
The three reportedly set to be cut are roundtable discussion show The Cycle at 3 p.m. eastern, Now with Alex Wagner at 4 p.m., and The Ed Show with Ed Schultz at 5 p.m.
Chuck Todd, who formerly hosted The Daily Rundown weekday mornings on the network, will take Schultzs slot while continuing to moderate Meet the Press on Sundays.
There is no information on who will replace the 3:00-5:00 PM slot, but there is speculation that it might be former NBC Nightly News anchor Brian Williams. Williams was suspended and ultimately removed from his network position after it was discovered he fabricated several stories.
MSNBC ratings have been dismal, finishing behind HLN and even its sister network CNBC at one point last month in the 25-54 demographic.

And yet Chris Matthews and Rachel Maddows missing twin, Chris Hayes, get to keep their shows. Go figure.

The Cycle?????
Have the feminists really gotten their own show about menstrual issues? That sounds like something MSNBC would put on.

Maybe they will replace them with reruns of “The Forensic Files.”

And Al Sharpton lives on. His show will be the last one on before they turn out the lights.

Sadly, the intellectual capital of MSNBC will be diminished with this move.

Well it’s either that or back to the 9-12PM shift on AM radio in Fargo.

MSNBC would increase its afternoon ratings by running a test pattern. That would at least attract the out-of-work stoner crowd.

What is sad is big percentage of the population think Todd is as objective as Tim Russert on MTP. Him joining MSNBC stable of marxist finally calls him out in earnest.
