Ex-MSNBCer Joan Walsh Announces That She’ll Now Be Working For CNN
It has been a whirlwind past couple of days for progressive political analyst Joan Walsh.
The former Salon editor-in-chief and current Nation correspondent announced late last week that she had suddenly been let go by MSNBC as a paid contributor after working for the network for years. MSNBC’s decision to cut ties with the well-known progressive commentator not only led to widespread liberal outrage but also criticism from a number of MSNBC hosts.
On Saturday evening, Walsh took to Twitter to announce that she had been hired by CNN.
I am overwhelmed by the support I've received today from all of you. And I'm thrilled to tell you I'll be heading to @CNN in the new year. Thanks to everyone who made this happen. A Christmas miracle.
