(ReclaimingAmerica.net) – In a notable blow to wokeist propaganda, MSNBC has axed Joy Reid’s show, “The ReidOut,” marking a significant shift as newly appointed president Rebecca Kutler steps in to overhaul the network’s lineup.

Reid, an outspoken critic of President Trump, joins a growing list of media anchors ousted amid declining viewership.
Rebecca Kutler, MSNBC’s new president, has initiated a dramatic reshuffle by canceling Joy Reid’s show, “The ReidOut.”
This maneuver, reportedly to combat plummeting ratings, replaces Reid’s time slot with a panel led by Alicia Menendez, Michael Steele, and former Kamala Harris spokesperson, Symone Sanders Townsend.
Notably, MSNBC has struggled in the ratings since Donald Trump left office, prompting a tactical realignment, The New York Post reports.
Adding further weight to MSNBC’s overhaul, Rachel Maddow’s return to a full-time schedule marks another pivot.
Alex Wagner, who sat in Maddow’s absence, appears to be a casualty of the changes, as MSNBC seeks to bolster its primetime offering.
Kutler’s strategic moves follow a broader aim of streamlining costs and honing competitiveness in a challenging media landscape.
Reid’s viewership, which saw a pronounced decline post-2024 election, according to reports, never regained its momentum.
Her exit could disrupt her progressive audience, aligning with a trend where critical voices against Trump and conservative pundits find themselves sidelined across networks.
Reid’s critics might argue that her outspoken critiques occasionally overstepped network comfort levels, further complicating her standing within MSNBC.
“Joy Reid, the most outspoken host on progressive news channel MSNBC, is leaving the network,” said two people familiar with the plans, cited by The LA Times.
Symone Sanders Townsend rises to fill Reid’s shoes alongside Steele and Menendez, marking another chapter in cable news evolution.
Critics may see this as MSNBC’s effort to dilute once-critical narratives, hence further aligning with industry-wide hedging towards more vanilla content during tumultuous political times.
Meanwhile, Comcast’s potential spin-off of MSNBC demonstrates the network’s need for agility amid evolving viewer habits and fiscal realities.
As MSNBC continues this reshaping effort, it mirrors CNN’s approach with Jim Acosta.
Both cases hint at an industry ready to discard emphasis on provocative analysis that could alienate parts of their audiences.
Whether the gambit of moving Reid and Acosta away from primetime boosts ratings is yet to be seen, but this marks a clear strategic pivot.
