MSNBC host Andrea Mitchell is ending her program, “Andrea Mitchell Reports,” after a new president is inaugurated in January, she announced Tuesday.
Mitchell requested from NBC and MSNBC to participate in more on-the-ground reporting like she had done throughout her career and travel globally to places such as Ukraine, Russia and Cuba once a new president is inaugurated in January, she said at the end of her program. She will remain the chief foreign affairs correspondent and chief Washington correspondent at NBC News and MSNBC.
“After 16 years of being in the anchor chair every day, I want time to do more of what I love the most. More connecting, listening and reporting in the field,” Mitchell said. “Especially, as whoever is elected next week is going to undertake the monumental task of handling two foreign wars and the political divisions here at home. So, sometime after the inaugural next January, I’ve asked NBC and MSNBC for the opportunity to continue covering those stories but from a different vantage point, still at NBC News and at MSNBC, still as chief Washington [and] foreign affairs correspondent, just not on a schedule of a daily show.”
“So come sometime next year, you’ll see me in your living rooms, still see me on your mobile devices and on other platforms, but perhaps also in your hometowns and cities,” she continued. “Still asking the questions to get the answers that you deserve.”
The 77-year-old journalist recently traveled with U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken to the Middle East where she had to leave the studio 35 minutes into her show, which starts at noon Eastern time, to catch her international flight, The Washington Post reported. The trip showed the hardship of hosting a cable news show while serving in two separate roles at the network. […]

Independent Journalism Is Dying
Ever since President Trump’s miraculous victory, we’ve heard an incessant drumbeat about how legacy media is dying. This is true. The people have awakened to the reality that they’re being lied to by the self-proclaimed “Arbiters of Truth” for the sake of political expediency, corporate self-protection, and globalist ambitions.
But even as independent journalism rises to fill the void left by legacy media, there is still a huge challenge. Those at the top of independent media like Joe Rogan, Dan Bongino, and Tucker Carlson are thriving and rightly so. They have earned their audience and the financial rewards that come from it. They’ve taken risks and worked hard to get to where they are.
For “the rest of us,” legacy media and their proxies are making it exceptionally difficult to survive, let alone thrive. They still have a stranglehold over the “fact checkers” who have a dramatic impact on readership and viewership. YouTube, Facebook, and Google still stifle us. The freer speech platforms like Rumble and 𝕏 can only reward so many of their popular content creators. For independent journalists on the outside looking in, our only recourse is to rely on affiliates and sponsors.
But even as it seems nearly impossible to make a living, there are blessings that should not be disregarded. By highlighting strong sponsors who share our America First worldview, we have been able to make lifelong connections and even a bit of revenue to help us along. This is why we enjoy symbiotic relationships with companies like MyPillow, Jase Medical, and Promised Grounds. We help them with our recommendations and they reward us with money when our audience buys from them.
The same can be said about our preparedness sponsor, Prepper All-Naturals. Their long-term storage beef has a 25-year shelf life and is made with one ingredient: All-American Beef.
Even our faith-driven precious metals sponsor helps us tremendously while also helping Americans protect their life’s savings. We are blessed to work with them.
Independent media is the future. In many ways, that future is already here. While the phrase, “the more the merrier,” does not apply to this business because there are still some bad actors in the independent media field, there are many great ones that do not get nearly enough attention. We hope to change that one content creator at a time.
Thank you and God Bless,
JD Rucker
