MSNBC hit by second huge Joy Reid drama after canceling her show
Joy Reid's axing from MSNBC has triggered panic and drama within the ailing news network.

Joy Reid may refuse to do a final show for MSNBC after being fired for plummeting ratings.Â
The ultra-liberal show, The ReidOut, was given the axe by newly tapped MSNBC president Rebecca Kutler, who is looking to overhaul the struggling network.
Reid has yet to comment on her firing, and has been unusually quiet on TikTok.
Following news of the cancellation, Kutler summoned Reid's staff for a meeting on Sunday that quickly grew 'tense and emotional,' according to Status News.
Kutler said the network would like Reid to do a final show, but it was not clear whether Reid would agree to it, suggesting there's bad blood following the cancellation.
'We are waiting to get a response from Joy and her team about how she would like to handle that, and we want to defer to her on that,' Kutler told staff.
'The hope is that we will have a final show with Joy,' Kutler added.
During the meeting, some of the angry employees demanded answers about why the show was cancelled and what it meant for their futures at MSNBC.
Kutler insisted Donald Trump was not a factor in the decision and the network's changes were made based on 'data analysis and programming strategy" that she believes will "best position MNSBC for the year ahead.'
Joy Reid may not do a final episode of The ReidOut following the show's cancellationÂ
MSNBC boss Rebecca Kutler summoned Reid's staff for a meeting on Sunday that quickly grew 'tense and emotional'
She said the show's cancellation was part of a 'broader slate of programming changes that will be laid out' on Monday.
The show's staffers reportedly expressed 'frustration and disbelief' that they learned of the show's fate through media reports and not the network's leadership.Â
Kutler confirmed the show's staff has been terminated but will be paid until April and receive severance.Â
Reid is among MSNBC's highest profile faces and is known for her hard left takes on social and political issues. Â
The show's 7pm ET time slot will be replaced by a panel show co-hosted by Symone Sanders Townsend, Alicia Menendez and Michael Steele.Â
Amid a looming landscape of languishing cable and legacy news stations, MSNBC had their lowest-rated January in history in the highly sought 25-54 demographic.
The statistic holds importance to advertisers due to the group's spending power and the fact that it pertains to both daytime and primetime.
During the hours of 8-11 p.m. ET, MSNBC barely managed an audience of 734,000, with CNN securing just 522,000.
This all occurred during a hectic news cycle that featured coverage of Justin Trudeau's resignation, Trump's inauguration and the controversy surrounding the president's parade of appointments and pardons.
Talking heads ranging from Jake Tapper to Joy Reid failed to stop the bleeding - as did a move from MSNBC that brought back Rachel Maddow to TV sets five times a week, at least for the first 100 days of the new administration.
MSNBC lagged to just 45,000 viewers during the day and just 63,000 during the peak hours of night - with the Maddow experiment seemingly failing.
In terms of percentages, though, the figures were even more alarming; MSNBC essentially lost nearly half of its 25-54 audience since this time last year, continuing a 65 percent slide seen since the election.
In primetime, the network's numbers are down 41 percent from 2024. When it came to programming delivered during the day, the percentage dip was the same.
Given the timing and recent events surrounding, the new Nielsen numbers appear to show that relationship continuing in spades, with Fox seemingly set to widen that gap even more.
