Stop us if you’ve heard this one before: A prominent TV reporter walks into a bar… A handful of the news anchors at MSNBC (yes, there are some left!) recently held a dinner to welcome Ana Cabrera, …
, a legendary Washington correspondent who has anchored an early afternoon show on MSNBC since 2008, was missing, due to making an appearance at Henry Kissinger’s 100th birthday.
“I thought a 100th birthday party for somebody would end early,” Mitchell confesses. “But it didn’t.” Cabrera, Jansing, Tur, Mitchell have all found time to get together more frequently in recent weeks. They, along with their colleague, José Díaz-Balart, are playing a more critical role at MSNBC — but not in hours when such significance might be expected. On days when big events erupt, the network might group a few of them together, just as it does at night when Rachel Maddow, Nicolle Wallace, Alex Wagner and Lawrence O’Donnell gather to hash out the news cycle.
MSNBC is largely known these days as a cable-news outlet that features programming with a hard-blue tilt. These five anchors, sandwiched between the end of “Morning Joe” at 10 a.m. and the start of Nicole Wallace’s “Deadline: White House” at 4 p.m., say they are forbidden from leaning that way or any other. “We are going to cover the stories as they come in,” says Tur, whose profile started gaining traction when she went on the road to cover the campaign of former President Donald Trump.
Sometimes the news hours take MSBNC to places die-hard viewers might not expect. On Thursday, for example, Jansing led a commercial-free 90 minutes devoted to breaking coverage of indictments handed down against Hunter Biden, President Joe Biden’s son. “All of us are reporters,” says Jansing of the daytime team. “We know what it is like to be out there on the big story, and a lot of us have done it and we have done it under crazy circumstances and continue to do it. We are still out here.
