The Bari Weiss era at CBS News has officially begun — and she isn’t wasting time making her mark. In her first decisive act as editor-in-chief, Weiss has removed Claudia Milne, the head of Standards and Practices, signaling a long-overdue course correction for a network that’s been struggling to find its credibility amid years of ideological drift.

ABC News is under fire after a shocking report appeared to romanticize the man accused of assassinating conservative activist Charlie Kirk. The segment, which aired during a Special Report, featured ABC correspondent Matt Gutman describing the text messages between accused killer Tyler Robinson and his roommate, a biological male who was reportedly “transitioning” to female, as “very touching.”
MSNBC has shown political analyst Matthew Dowd the door after his divisive comments on the Charlie Kirk tragedy — and now he’s lashing out at those he feels deserve the blame.
The longtime commentator was fired in the wake of his controversial remarks following the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk in Utah. Dowd insists he’s been wronged, claiming his ouster was less about what he said and more about what he calls the influence of the “right wing media mob.”
The fallout from Charlie Kirk’s shocking death continues to ripple through media and politics. MSNBC has now fired longtime political analyst Matthew Dowd following his on-air remarks in the immediate aftermath of the Charlie Kirk tragedy — comments that many blasted as insensitive, inflammatory, and outright disgraceful.
In what many are calling a last-ditch effort to revive flagging viewership, MSNBC is shedding its established name and Peacock logo in a bold rebranding to MS NOW—short for My Source News Opinion World. The changes come courtesy of Comcast’s spin-off of several cable channels into the new publicly traded entity, Versant, led by Mark Lazarus. But instead of injecting fresh vitality, the rebrand has coincided with another tumble in MSNBC ratings, reinforcing the narrative of a network struggling to stay relevant.
Rachel Maddow, MSNBC’s primetime star and the face of the network for more than a decade, has weighed in on the channel’s controversial rebrand to MS NOW. While much of the public response has mocked the new name as clunky and uninspired, Maddow insisted on her Monday broadcast that dropping the “NBC” will actually improve the network’s future.
MSNBC is no more. At least, not in name. The network unveiled a new identity on August 18, 2025, announcing MSNBC will soon be known as MS NOW as part of a corporate restructuring under a new media company called Versant. The change comes with a promise of editorial “independence,” a fresh logo, and the retirement of the iconic NBC Peacock.
The longtime liberal cable channel MSNBC is about to undergo the biggest change in its nearly three-decade history. According to a new report from CNBC, Comcast is spinning the network out into a separate company and rebranding it as MS NOW, removing all connections to NBC and even ditching the famous peacock logo.
