Network executives addressed staff Wednesday on Comcast’s plans to spin off the cable channel from NBC News, a proposed shake-up that comes amid postelection ratings woes and concerns about what a Joe and Mika trip to Mar-a-Lago portends for covering Donald Trump.
The cohosts were, presumably, joking about the implications of Comcast ’s plan, though the on-air conversation about the volatile nature of the cable news business spoke to the underlying anxiety inside 30 Rock about what the future holds for MS NBC .
Still, the source notes that some of their “colleagues think we’re on the way to the dumpster,” which could stem from the “normal uncertainty that comes with all change.” An MSNBC spokesperson declined to comment. There were some signs of optimism. Maddow, according to a second source, said that it was great to have Lazarus “here on day one.” Lazarus separately met with others inside MSNBC, taking questions from staffers and, perhaps, helping reassure the rank-and-file.
