MSNBC, which has been soaring lately in both ratings and in advertising prices, is giving radio host Hugh Hewitt his own show, adding another conservative voice to a lineup that already includes Fox News poach Greta Van Susteren and former George W. Bush communications hand Nicole Wallace.
Hewitt's self-titled show will air on Saturday mornings at 8 a.m., starting June 24, as part of an expansion of the network's weekend programming in July. TVNewser first reported the news, which was then announced by the company.
In giving Hewitt his own show, MSNBC is sure to raise eyebrows, considering that the network has been doing well mostly on the strength of left-leaning opinion journalists like Rachel Maddow and Lawrence O'Donnell. NBC News chairman Andy Lack is known to favor hard news, and has programmed the network to feature a broader range of editorial opinions in addition to traditional newsmen like Brian Williams.

Eight on Saturday morning.. might as well be two am
I would say RINO radio show host Hugh Hewitt. He is of the establishment type.
He’s a good guy. I hope he doesn’t turn to mush.
He’s a Globalist Fluffer, he never meet a Soros initiative he didn’t love.
He is the safe cordial “conservative” type. Get’s along with all sorts of people because he is invariably polite. Didn’t much care for Cruz or Trump in the early primaries. Liked John Kaisich and was real up on his congressional career prior to his Governorship.
“Conservative”. Not Conservative.
RINO Radio...well, that is infinitely better than listening to LIBERAL RAVINGS AND TRIPE. The left already tried that many times and it all failed. The radical left knows that, so they wanted someone who would spew a bit of their lunacy.
The RATS are desperate and that is good for America.
I remember him saying that Trump had no chance of winning.
Better than nothing...might help a few people see the light..but 8am saturday
I don’t know how conservative Hugh Hewitt is, but it seems that as MSNBC adds a touch of conservatism, FOX keeps drifting left.
They are parting ways with two FOX News Radio hosts, John Gibson and Tom Sullivan, at the end of the month. I’ve listened to them every day for more than ten years and found them to be quite “deplorable” if you know what I mean.
Todd Starnes and some stand-up comedian will be replacing them. I like Starnes, but don’t know if I can listen to him for three hours.
Hewitt, along with his Salem sidekick Medved, is a Cheap Labor Express propagandist who advocates for amnesty for illegal aliens.
Not conservative.
Nicole Wallace is as far a leftwing nut job as Chris Matthews.
Hewitt is not a conservative, he is a vicious never Trump slime ball.
He was given the radio show as a reward for all the lies he told attacking Trump.
Hugh has a tin ear for politics and football.
Isn’t he anti-Trump? Pro- swamp thing?
Hewitt is a gentleman and well-informed.
Gentlemen keep their coats on and clean, well out of the fight when it comes to that.
so what, if I remember Savage had a show at one time on PMSNBC
Yes, he and moaning Joe are both staunch con-servatives.
