Alex Wagner Will Succeed Rachel Maddow!

Rachel Maddow's successor.

Alex Wagner returns to MSNBC and she will be hosting her own show on weeknights. Rachel Maddow who officially is semi-retiring is still continuing on periodic basis. Maddow will host her program on Monday nights and during political events like the Jan. 6 hearings and the Midterm elections, but Wagner will host her own program from Tuesday to Friday.

The MSNBC Prime will be renamed Alex Wagner starting August 16.

Rashida Jones announced on Monday that Wagner "pull in perspective. She brings in some of the context throughout her discussion. She knows everything from foreign policy to culture."

"This is not a show where our hair is on fire and we're yelling past each other, and we're creating these manufactured moments of tension," Jones added. "I really want the takeaway from this show to be a better understanding of what's happening in the world."

Wagner is an Asian-American journalist who had a show on MSNBC weekends until 2015. She left the network for CBS from 2016 until 2018. She now is co-host of The Circus on Showtime as of now and will continue to be on that program. 

Fox decided to congratulate Wagner by taking a dig at her. The white nationalist Karen Wulfsohn said "despite network's history of scrapping her programs" as an attempt to say she could fail.

Karen Ingraham and Tuckems both had failed shows. What's your point?

Joy Reid, Chris Hayes, Lawrence O'Donnell and Stephanie Ruhle will continue to lead in MSNBC Primetime program.
