Amid outcry from some of their top talent, NBC News is dropping former Republican National Committee Chair Ronna McDaniel as a contributor, according to a network memo sent Tuesday.
“There is no doubt that the last several days have been difficult for the News Group. After listening to the legitimate concerns of many of you, I have decided that Ronna McDaniel will not be an NBC News contributor,” Cesar Conde, the NBCU News Group chairman, wrote.
McDaniel stepped down at the RNC last month and was replaced by two new leaders, including former President Donald Trump’s daughter-in-law.
She defended her time with the party and her views on the 2020 election, Jan. 6 and more in an interview on Sunday on “Meet the Press.”
