    MSNBC names Alex Wagner as Rachel Maddow’s successor in key time slot

    Wait, WHAT?!?!?! Rachel is going away?

    MSNBC has named a permanent successor for its struggling 9 p.m. ET primetime weeknight slot now that longtime anchor Rachel Maddow has shifted to a one-day-per-week format.

    Alex Wagner will anchor MSNBC’s 9 p.m. hour on Tuesdays through Fridays beginning on August 16, the network confirmed in a press release. MSNBC said the program’s name will be revealed at a later date.

    “Alex Wagner in the 9pm hour was a clear choice. Her unique perspective—built on more than two decades in journalism—and tenacious reporting in the U.S. and abroad will help our audiences contextualize what matters,” MSNBC President Rashida Jones said in a statement. “I am looking forward to watching Alex thrive in MSNBC’s primetime lineup.”

    Wagner will also contribute to special coverage events, including MSNBC’s broadcasts of the 2022 midterm elections. MSNBC noted she will be the only Asian American to host a primetime cable news program.

    “I’m honored to be anchoring a key hour of television in such a critical time for American democracy,” Wagner said. “In many ways, the stakes have never been higher, and there’s no better place to explore this moment than MSNBC. I’m thrilled to be coming home.”

    The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

    Oh no! Who is going to tell firstfloor what to think?
    Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
    But I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of man
    Than a fool in the eyes of God

        Before, during and after her extended vacation, Maddow made it clear she no longer wanted a 5 days-a-week schedule.

          It's too taxing to be that hyped up?
