MSNBC holds “tense” Joy Reid employee after having fired Lecks

Joy Reid's dismissal of MSNBC ran to the press before her employees were notified, and forced the Network boss Rebecca Kutler to call a spontaneous meeting with “top questions” and “raw emotions”, reported media journalist Oliver Darcy on Sunday.

According to Darcy's status newsletter, the employees expressed “frustration and unbelief and outraged them that they had learned about reports in the press and not of the guidance of the fate of their show. Others demanded answers to the reasons for the cancellation of “The Reidout” and what it meant for their future in the network. “

They received their answer: “The meeting, which lasted almost 30 minutes, showed a great questions, raw emotions and a discussion about the upcoming changes” – including the revelation that the entire staff will be released, Darcy writes. Kutler said that she hoped that the staff would produce the rotation at 7 p.m. until the changes in April will take effect.

The status also reported that Kutler held a similar meeting with Alex Wagner's show personnel, which, according to the Darcy meeting, was “quickly tense and emotional”. Kutler announced both meetings that more than 100 new roles will be published at MSNBC this week and that the employees concerned are asked to apply for them, reported status.

Kutler said she wanted Reid to hold a last show, but was not sure whether she sent it and was waiting for an answer from the team of the “Reidout” host. She also told MSNBC employees that the news of Reid's relief-not well in certain corners of the Internet NUR is part of a “wider series of program changes” that will be determined by the Progressive News Network on Monday.

MSNBC will replace “The Reidout” with a new show, which is organized by “The Weekend” Anchor Sime Sime Sanders Townsend, Michael Steele and Alicia Menendez in 7:00 p.m. ET -SLOT, part of Rebecca Kutler's vision for the network, which is forward . Wagner will also be replaced from Tuesday to Friday during the spot from 9 a.m., but remains as a correspondent in the network.

Kutler regretted the employees who learned their fate through a press corner and was asked whether Donald Trump's re-election was a factor for one of the decisions that contested them. She said changes are based on “Data analysis and programming strategy” for “Best position MSNBC for the coming year”.
