Vanity Fair is reporting that Senior Vice President, Politics at NBC Carrie Budoff Brown was the genius who hired Ronna McDaniel. Or to be precise, she’s the one who sent out the internal memo at NBC announcing McDaniel’s hiring at NBC.

In a memo announcing McDaniel’s hiring, Carrie Budoff Brown, who leads NBC’s elections reporting, wrote that “it couldn’t be a more important moment to have a voice like Ronna’s on the team,” and referenced McDaniel’s leadership of the GOP “through some of the most turbulent and challenging moments in political history.”

However, a number of others at MSNBC noticed that McDaniel is a party to all of that turbulence and challenges we are facing in our political history. According to Brown, McDaniel will be involved in all platforms at NBC. Unfortunately for McDaniel, MSNBC’s President Rashida Jones said, “Uh NO WAY!”

Just days after NBC News announced it was hiring Ronna McDaniel as a political analyst, MSNBC’s President, Rashida Jones, told employees that the former Republican National Committee chairwoman won’t be contributing on air to the cable network, The Wall Street Journal reported Saturday.
