MSNBC has reportedly informed a majority of staffers who work on Rachel Maddow’s prime time opinion show that they are being let go as part of the network’s restructuring that resulted in the cancellation of Joy Reid’s program as well as those of other hosts.

The sweeping overhaul at MSNBC has reached production staff after tearing through its lineup of anchors. The network has already told the majority of employees who produce Rachel Maddow and Joy Reid’s shows that they were being let go with the option to apply for new roles,

As MSNBC host Joy Ann Reid issued her final send-off on the ReidOut, her now former colleagues blasted the network for her "indefensible" firing. Reid hosted the show for five years. Prior to that, Reid was a weekend host of AM Joy from 2016 to 2020.
