MSNBC Overhauls 'The Weekend' With New Morning Co-Hosts

Jonathan Capehart, Eugene Daniels, and Jackie Alemany will lead a revamped three-hour morning program starting this spring.

MSNBC has announced a major revamp of its weekend programming, expanding 'The Weekend' morning show to three hours on both Saturdays and Sundays.
Jonathan Capehart, a longtime MSNBC weekend host, will be joined by Eugene Daniels from Politico and Jackie Alemany from Washington Post as co-hosts for the morning edition of the show.
The new hosting trio aims to combine opinion-based analysis, investigative reporting, and accountability journalism to provide viewers with deeper context and forward-looking discussions on major news stories.
This programming change is part of a broader overhaul led by MSNBC President Rebecca Kutler, including shifts in weekday primetime and a focus on panel-based formats to enhance audience engagement.
The outgoing 'Weekend' hosts—Symone Sanders-Townsend, Michael Steele, and Alicia Menendez—will move to a new weekday evening program in the 7 p.m. time slot.
