Joan Walsh Announces Move to CNN, 1 Day After MSNBC Pink-Slipped Her

Political analyst Joan Walsh, who was given a pink-slip Friday night from MSNBC, already has a new gig — on CNN.

Saturday night Walsh tweeted the good news.

“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.”

let's hope maybe CNN will be the ones to actually talk about the madness without the normalization or obfuscation. speak to women/LGBTQ/racial issues without bias.

yeah, good luck.

A lot lately. Think it is time to tune MSNBC out.

They actually hired Hugh Hewit. And the ranting is getting old.

It will be interesting to see what happens to MSNBC's ratings when Chris Cuomo's show goes up against Rachel. I'll still watch Rachel, but I like Cuomo, too.
