Jen Psaki Moves to Primetime Weekdays in MSNBC Overhaul


Jen Psaki will take over the bulk of MSNBC's 9 p.m. programming as part of a broad overhaul of the cable news network by new president Rebecca Kutler

Jen Psaki, the former Biden White House press secretary who has become a favorite at MSNBC since joining in 2023, will get even more screen time in front of viewers in April when she takes over the network’s 9 p.m. slot between Tuesday and Friday. MSNBC is grappling not only with the new Trump administration, to which many of its progressive anchors and analysts are directly opposed, but it also faces a big change in its business operations once it is, along with a group of other cable networks, spun off from Comcast in a transaction slated to be completed later this year. Jonathan Capehart, who has been a familiar weekend presence at MSNBC in recent years, will serve as one co-anchor of the morning show, while anchor Ayman Mohyeldin will work in the trio in the evening program.
