Far-left host Tiffany Cross out at MSNBC over 'bad judgment' on and off the air
MSNBC decided not to renew Cross’ contract after two years
By Brian Flood | Fox News
MSNBC has cut ties with controversial, far-left weekend host Tiffany Cross after NBC Universal executives grew tired of her "bad judgment."
Cross, who hosted the weekend program "Cross Connection," will be replaced by rotating guest anchors until a replacement is named, a source close to the situation told Fox News Digital.
MSNBC decided not to renew Cross’ contract after two years and severed ties with her immediately. The move is being billed internally as a programming decision and her staff will remain with the network and produce whatever lands the "Cross Connection" time slot.
"Repeated bad behavior on and off-air. Bad judgment," a second source close to the situation told Fox News Digital when asked about MSNBC’s decision not to keep Cross.
excerpt:
Cross was previously a fill-in host for Joy Reid's weekend show "AM Joy" and got her own Saturday program in 2020. There, she was known for her vitriolic statements about conservatives, remarking that there is already a "civil war" happening in the United States, urged liberals to "pick up a weapon" in the fight for democracy, and called Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas "Justice Pubic Hair on My Coke Can."
She's also warned about "White replacement" on the show and blasted Republican members of Congress as "White supremacists." She recently drew ridicule when she weighed in on the Tua Tagovailoa concussion incident by wrongly calling the Miami Dolphins quarterback Black and his head coach white; Tagovailoa is Samoan, and his coach is mixed-race. Cross had suggested Tagovailoa, who suffered a concussion in a September game, had been put at risk by his coach due to racism.more
