Click to see story on scnr.comIn what appears to be a short-lived partnership, NBC News plans to part ways with former Republican National Chair Ronna McDaniel, according to Puck News. The New York Post reported that the pending move comes after network stars, including prominent host Rachel Maddow, and other co-hosts of “Morning Joe,” criticized the decision to bring McDaniel into the fold at the network.
Chuck Todd, the former “Meet the Press” anchor, reportedly had problems with bringing McDaniel on as a paid contributor as well.
The report was made public by veteran reporter Dylan Byers, who previously worked for NBC News. As of the publishing of this report, the network has not yet offered confirmation of McDaniel’s departure.

McDaniel was hired to be an NBC News contributor on Friday, March 22. Before she even appeared on air, McDaniel made a big splash with the news. Maddow reportedly called the decision to hire McDaniel “inexplicable” during her show on Monday, March 25.
Maddow criticized McDaniel for her alignment with former President Donald Trump and her alleged involvement in undermining the electoral system.
“When the hiring was announced, and MSNBC staff announced essentially unanimously and instantaneously expressed outrage, our leadership at MSNBC heard us, understood, and adjusted course,” Maddow said. “We were told this weekend in clear terms: Ronna McDaniel will not be on air. Ronna McDaniel will not be on MSNBC.”
Similarly, Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski of “Morning Joe” declared they would not invite McDaniel to their program. Scarborough claimed that MSNBC management never ask him about his or Brezinski’s opinion on the hiring of McDaniel.

NBC NEWS IS SET TO DROP FORMER REPUBLICAN NATIONAL COMMITTEE BOSS RONNA MCDANIEL AS A PAID CONTRIBUTOR ACCORDING TO A REPORT FROM PUCK NEWS.
THE MOVE FOLLOWS WIDESPREAD CRITICISM FROM NETWORK PERSONALITIES INCLUDING FORMER “MEET THE PRESS” ANCHOR CHUCK TODD AND MSNBC HOST RACHEL MADDOW
THE REPORT WAS MADE PUBLIC BY VETERAN MEDIA REPORTER DYLAN BYERS, WHO PREVIOUSLY WORKED FOR NBC. THE NETWORK HAS NOT OFFERED CONFIRMATION OF THE NEWS AT TIME OF PUBLICATION.
MCDANIEL WAS HIRED TO BE AN NBC CONTRIBUTOR LAST FRIDAY AND BEFORE SHE EVER APPEARED ON THE AIR MADE A BIG SPLASH.
MADDOW, ONE OF MSNBC’S MORE PROMINENT FIGURES CALLED THE DECISION TO HIRE MCDANIEL “INEXPLICABLE” DURING HER MONDAY SHOW, URGING NBC EXECUTIVES TO REVERSE COURSE. SHE CRITICIZED MCDANIEL FOR HER ALIGNMENT WITH FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP AND HER ALLEGED INVOLVEMENT IN UNDERMINING THE ELECTORAL SYSTEM.
[RACHEL MADDOW]
WHEN THE HIRING WAS ANNOUNCED, AND MSNBC STAFF ANNOUNCED ESSENTIALLY UNANIMOUSLY AND INSTANTANEOUSLY EXPRESSED OUTRAGE, OUR LEADERSHIP AT MSNBC HEARD US, UNDERSTOOD AND ADJUSTED COURSE. WE WERE TOLD THIS WEEKEND IN CLEAR TERMS: RONNA MCDANIEL WILL NOT BE ON OUR AIR. RONNA MCDANIEL WILL NOT BE ON MSNBC.”
[LAUREN TAYLOR]
SIMILARLY, JOE SCARBOROUGH AND MIKA BRZEZINSKI OF “MORNING JOE” DECLARED THEY WOULD NOT INVITE MCDANIEL TO THEIR PROGRAM, DENOUNCING HER AS AN “ANTI-DEMOCRACY ELECTION DENIER.”
