Is Chuck Todd leaving MSNBC?
Meet the Press with Chuck Todd will officially be moved from MSNBC to NBC News Now.

The show will be available to stream starting Monday, June 6, 2022.

Todd's Meet the Press Daily has been running since 2015 and only moved to the early afternoon timeslot in 2020.
On Sunday, May 22, the show announced on Twitter that it will be "pre-empted this week for NBC's coverage of the Premier League."
The show promised it would be "back next week."
Meet the Press took to Twitter on May 25 to issue a formal thank you to viewers.
"We want to say thank you to everyone for watching #MTPDaily over the years. We'll be back on weekdays, starting on June 6th with our new show, "Meet The Press NOW." Watch it Monday through Friday, on @NBCNewsNOW at 4 PM Eastern."
What will replace Meet the Press?
With the timeslot change for Meet the Press Now, the Network has decided to fill the usual 1pm show.
Chris Jansing, a veteran journalist, will take over the 1pm hour with MSNBC Reports.
The change took effect on May 26, 2022.
Based on his history of working for political campaigns and networks like MSNBC, which tends to skew left in coverage, it’s likely that he is a Democrat, but it is not clear what Todd’s registered political affiliation is.
Todd moderated the first of the 2020 Democratic Party presidential debates along with Jose Diaz-Balart, Savannah Guthrie, Lester Holt, and Rachel Maddow, and Maddow, at least, is considered to be a fairly liberal political commentator.
But again, that does not confirm Todd’s own political feelings or registration.
As a longtime political commentator and host of political news TV shows, Todd has had a lot to say about politics over the years.
On Meet the Press in June 2015, Todd said, “It's hard not to when you see dysfunction play out on our TVs every day. Frankly, sometimes at every level of government.”

In August 2020, Todd was also by some people for having a Republican as part of a panel discussion with more liberal journalists.
It seems like Todd is willing to speak to and criticize both sides of the aisle, no matter his official political affiliation.
