Overview
Rashida Jones announced her resignation as president of MSNBC, effective just before Donald Trump's second term. Her departure comes amid corporate changes and a sharp drop in viewership. Jones, the first Black executive leader of a major U.S. news network, will be succeeded by Rebecca Kutler, who takes over during a challenging time for the network as it gears up for a spin-off from NBCUniversal. Despite having driven ratings successes during her tenure, MSNBC has seen considerable viewership decline in recent months, prompting shifts in network strategy as it navigates a politically charged environment.
