Overview
- The schedule change takes effect in June, cutting Morning Joe to 6–9 a.m. and moving Stephanie Ruhle to a new 9–11 a.m. program focused on money and politics.
- Ali Velshi will host The 11th Hour at 11 p.m. on weeknights, with Jacob Soboroff taking over Velshi’s former weekend block from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.
- Alicia Menendez gains a weekday noon–2 p.m. slot, while Luke Russert joins The Weeknight and Chris Hayes’s All In returns to Mondays at 8 p.m.
- Chris Jansing transitions from the anchor desk to chief political reporter, and Ana Cabrera announced she is leaving the network.
- MS NOW says the overhaul is aimed at strengthening daytime coverage ahead of elections, promises role shifts rather than broad layoffs, and plans to name a new 11 a.m. anchor.
