Exactly. My son is 27 yo, and I know his friends, girlfriend, her friends, etc. None of them watch traditional TV or pay attention to traditional news sources.

MSNBC is doing this for only one reason- they're absolutely dead in the water, failed miserably and are losing tons of money each month. The brand is 100% kaput, it is toxic to the masses, and they have no choice other than folding up the tent.

Here's a thought for the MSNOW team.
Consider packaging and marketing a streaming service and call it MSNOW+.
This will surely resonate with the Gen Z types who will gladly pay a monthly fee for the privilege.
Just like CNN+ worked out so well for team CNN.

CNN+ launched on March 29, 2022, and was shut down on April 28, 2022.

Name change means nothing. It’s just a different camouflage pattern. The significant part is that they had to change at all. That’s how badly they damaged their brand and credibility. A name change won’t remedy that.

In other words, NBC is cleaning up their brand image by spitting MSNBC out like a sour watermelon seed, preventing them from further defiling the NBC peacock logo, and then for good measure ripping the letters "N" "B" and "C" out of the refugee organization's long-term brand name.

$10 says one of those shows with the rotating turntables of old lady jewelry and people call in to chat on air is more profitable. Heck, NBC probably better off just wholesaleing the time to as-seen-on-TV
