Host Mehdi Hasan announces exit from MSNBC after final broadcast
2024-01-09
[NYPOST] MSNBC host Mehdi Hasan announced Sunday night he was leaving the left-leaning network during his final prime-time broadcast two months after the cable news giant said it planned to scrap his show.

Hasan, who hosted “The Mehdi Hasan Show” on Sundays, broke the news after he was previously expected to stick with MSNBC as an analyst and fill-in host.

His show was canceled by network leaders in November after it suffered a ratings decline and as part of a larger shakeup at the news organization.

During the show’s last broadcast, Hasan said he was leaving to “look for a new challenge” as a new year brings “new plans.”
"Spend more time with my family"
“As we begin 2024 with an election coming, a war still ongoing and too many Trump trials, honestly, to even keep track of and with this show going away I’ve decided it’s time for me to look for a new challenge.

“Tonight’s not just my final episode of ‘The Mehdi Hasan Show,’ it’s my last day with MSNBC,” he said.
