BREAKING: Chuck Todd OUT at MSNBC

It’s just been announced that Chuck Todd is no longer part of MSNBC. He is said to be quitting the network to pursue other endeavors.

According to Newsmax, Todd has been in talks with other news and media outlets, including local ones:

Chuck Todd, former moderator of “Meet the Press,” is leaving NBC News, he told colleagues in a Friday memo, Variety reports.

Todd’s current contract with NBC News as political analyst was expected to lapse sometime after the 2024 election, and in recent weeks, he has been meeting with other news outlets, people familiar with the situation said.

“I’m pretty excited about a few new projects that are on the cusp of going from ‘pie in the sky’ to ‘near reality,’” Todd said in the memo to NBC News staffers. “So I’m grateful for the chance to get a jump start on my next chapter during this important moment.”

Todd is taking his “Chuck Toddcast” podcast with him and said he would making “an announcement about its new home soon.”

There have been reports Todd has been in talks with Washington, D.C.-based media organizations about opportunities in broadcast and digital media.

In his Friday memo, Todd implied he was going to a local news outlet: “The only way to fix this information eco system is to stop whining about the various ways the social media companies are manipulating things and instead roll up our collective sleeves and start with local.

“National media can’t win trust back without having a robust partner locally, and trying to game algorithms is no way to inform and report,” Todd continued. “People are craving community, and that’s something national media or the major social media companies can’t do as well as local media.”

No Todd. National media can’t win back trust until they begin caring about facts rather than narrative reporting with such a heavy left-wing bias.

Good riddance.
