Should have just went and made it MSDNC as I have been calling them for years now:

MSNBC unveils clunky new name after splitting from NBC News...and it is dumping iconic peacock logo too

Trump truly did break them Big Grin

By MSNBC
Later this year, MSNBC will take on a new name: My Source News Opinion World (MS NOW).

This name further underscores our mission: to serve as your destination for breaking news and thoughtful analysis and remain the home for the perspectives that you’ve relied on for nearly 30 years.

For our viewers who have watched us for decades, it may be hard to imagine this network by any other name. We understand. But our promise to you remains as it always has. You know who we are, and what we do.

The same familiar and trusted hosts and journalists who make sense of what is happening in Washington, across the country, and around the world will still be here — whether that’s as you’re having a cup of coffee getting ready for the day ahead, seeking answers during breaking news moments, going deeper on the day’s headlines in the evenings, or discussing the week’s biggest stories on the weekends.

You might be wondering, why is this change happening? As part of our move to a new media company, VERSANT — which also includes CNBC, Golf Channel, GolfNow, and SportsEngine — we’ll no longer be part of NBCUniversal and NBC News. This gives us the freedom to chart our own path forward, and we’re excited about where it’s headed.

In fact, we’ve been growing. In the past few months, we’ve welcomed Pulitzer, Emmy, Murrow, and Peabody award-winning journalists into our newsroom, and have been recruiting for nearly 100 new roles. At a time when so many newsrooms are shrinking, we’re investing in more reporting, more coverage, and more ways to serve you.

Regardless of our name, our commitment to this community remains as strong as it’s ever been and in the months ahead we will unveil new ways to connect with you directly.

We will continue to cover the day’s news, ask the questions that matter most, and share how it impacts you, without fear or favor.

As Rachel often reminds us all … watch this space.

When they used the term "thoughtful analysis" in their announcement, I nearly gagged.

The rebranding is for 2 reasons. One being making a stink and making the news sites, for a story, as a means to draw attention to it. Two, they are doing what every other company is doing now, changing direction and business model, and going after Gen Z I bet. It won’t work. It’s a desperation move and it’s already a failure.

No Gen Z type or younger hardly even pays any attention to network TV now

My kids are almost 100% streaming, non-traditional TV type viewing

These leftists just don’t get it- whatever footprint they’d manage to keep in the brave new streaming world is limited to a tiny rabid following within the echo chamber. The MSM is nearly dead of suicide.

More linguistic sleight of hand from the left, they are never honest about who they are and what they intend.
