Overview
- Ana Cabrera delivered a final on-air farewell on June 12, saying the broadcast was her last show for MS NOW and thanking viewers and staff for three years at the network.
- Cabrera framed the exit as a new chapter and said she will share next steps on social media rather than announcing immediate plans.
- Her departure was first disclosed in March as part of a broad programming overhaul that takes effect in mid-June and removed her from the daily lineup.
- MS NOW has reassigned weekday hours with Stephanie Ruhle taking the 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. slot and Peter Alexander anchoring the hour after, while Alicia Menendez, Ali Velshi and others move into new roles and shows.
- The changes follow MS NOW's rebrand after its November 2025 spin-off into Versant and are presented by network leadership as a way to strengthen the lineup, a shift that viewers have met with notable disappointment online and that could affect ratings and anchor visibility going forward.
