Rachel Maddow has reached a new, multi-year deal with NBCUniversal, the parent company of MSNBC, reports Insider.
WME’s Mark Shapiro, who repped Maddow in the negotiation, told Insider’s chief media correspondent Claire Atkinson, he “would not comment further and declined to say how much Maddow would be paid, saying only she would have more scheduling flexibility and will be expanding on her ideas.”
“One of cable news’ most-watched hosts and MSNBC’s highest-rated host by a longshot, Maddow has shown an increasing amount of interest in developing projects in the streaming and podcasting space,” says TVNewser.
There had been reports that Maddow was seriously considering leaving the network when her current contract ends early next year.
