Brian Williams Wants to Leave MSNBC’s The 11th Hour
Brian Williams may be leaving his 11 p.m. MSNBC program The 11th Hour in 2022. This is being reported by CNN’s Brian Stelter, who is citing three sources familiar with the matter.
Williams’ contract will expire in the next six months and he wants to move off the show, Stelter reports.
So, asks TVNewser, where will the longtime news anchor go? “That remains to be seen.
“It’s possible he could move to the network’s key 9 p.m. hour, as Rachel Maddow will reportedly wind down her five-night-a-week show at some point next year, and take on a role where she focuses on MSNBC specials (roughly 35 per year) and other projects at NBCUniversal. Allowing the cable news legend to work on content across the company is supposedly part of her new contract.”
