Rashida Jones, who took the helm of MSNBC on Monday, unveiled a new organizational structure that puts greater emphasis on the difference between breaking news programming, and analysis and opinion shows.
Jones also said that the network, seeking to expand longform content, would be adding a head of documentary acquisitions, with an announcement in the coming weeks.
In a memo to staff, Jones wrote, “One of our key priorities for 2021 is to make sure news consumers clearly understand the value of – and differences between – the two main types of content we offer: coverage of live and breaking news, and insightful analysis and perspectives. Both genres are critical to our future success, and both genres need to exist in a clear and compelling form on every single platform where news consumers go – which is why we are going to realign to better support them both.”

Rashida Jones, an NBC News executive whose oversight of special programming has put her more in demand in recent months, has been placed in charge of MSNBC’s daytime schedule.
Her appointment comes after she has organized several big-headline programs during a punishing news cycle that has included town-hall events, political debates and special reports centered on the 2020 election and the coronavirus pandemic. MSNBC’s daytime schedule is largely built around hour-long programs featuring NBC News anchors and reporters, the result of a pivot in 2015 under top news executive Andy Lack away from a schedule of hosts offering a progressive lens on the news.
“The steps we have taken over the last few years—by infusing the great work of MSNBC with the enormous resources and journalistic heft of NBC News—have prepared us for this moment,” MSNBC President Phil Griffin and NBC News President Noah Oppenheim said to staffers in a memo Wednesday.
