Lol.NBC News boss is forced to hold emergency meeting with journalists after they warned hiring Jen Psaki as MSNBC host would tarnish the brand
The president of NBC News has been forced to hold a meeting with staff outraged over the network's decision to hire Jen Psaki as an MSNBC host.
Noah Oppenheim held the call with staffers at the network's Washington DC bureau over their fears that hiring the White House press secretary will tarnish the brand.
According to CNN, Oppenheim told his journalists that Psaki would only appear on MSNBC, which is known for its left-wing opinion shows, and not NBC News itself, which bills itself as a neutral news network.
She is said to have informally agreed to host an MSNBC show that'll be screened on the Peacock streaming service.
One person who was on the call said: 'Here's what he was saying: They have perspective programming. This was done on the perspective programming side. Not anything that reflects on NBC News.
A source inside NBC News told DailyMail.com.
‘Noah had absolutely nothing to do with the discussions with Jen. This is all on MSNBC,' said the source.

Did you even bother to read the article that you commented on? It doesn't appear so.Lol. MSNBC is worried about damaging their brand.
Lighten up, Francis.Did you even bother to read the article that you commented on? It doesn't appear so.
The staff of NBC's news division was worried about damaging the brand of NBC News ... not MSNBC.
Jen Psaki is just as logical a hire for an opinionated, cable news, liberal programming network such as MSNBC, as former George W. Bush White House Press Secretary, Dana Perino, and former Donald Trump White House Press Secretary, Kayleigh McEnany, were for Fox News.
The concern was that Jen Psaki would also be contributing to NBC's news coverage, but it now seems that those concerns have been alleviated.
Do Republicans/conservatives have a problem with Dana Perino and Kayleigh McEnany working for Fox News? I doubt it.

If that makes a difference, then it should be pointed out that Fox News hired Karl Rove as a paid contributor in 2007. He had worked for the Bush administration and also served as Bush's campaign manager twice. Bush did not leave office until January of 2009.Pretty sure they were both hired after the administration they worked for left the White House.
Rachel Maddow returns to MSNBC, will Switch to Once a Week
NEW YORK (AP) — MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow returned to the air Monday with some bad news for her fans: Starting next month, she will be doing her prime-time show only once a week.
After working her customary five nights a week for the rest of April, Maddow said, she will work on Monday nights only starting in May. The network said it will rotate guest hosts the other four weeknights on a show called “MSNBC Prime.”
