MSNBC Host Rachel Maddow Admits Successor Jen Psaki Is ‘Better’ Than Her
MSNBC has officially transitioned its 9 p.m. Et primetime slot from veteran anchor Rachel Maddow to former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki, marking a significant shift in the network’s evening lineup. This change is part of a broader programming overhaul under new MSNBC President Rebecca Kutler, aiming to adapt to the evolving media landscape and audience preferences.
After assuming the role, Kutler fired anchor Joy Reid as one of her first acts. Maddow blasted the decision live on the air.

She now returns to her previous schedule, hosting The Rachel Maddow Show exclusively on Monday nights. Maddow expressed confidence in Psaki, stating that the primetime slot would be “better” with Psaki’s fresh perspective.
