Kevin Magee, the former executive vice president of Fox Business Network, has been hired to oversee MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” reports Alex Weprin of Politico.
Weprin reports, “Magee will work alongside the show’s executive producer, Alex Korson.
“Magee left Fox Business in 2014. At MSNBC, he replaces Michael Weisman, who currently serves as executive in charge of the program.
“MSNBC is in the midst of transforming its lineup to focus more on news programming, and is said to have grand ambitions for ‘Morning Joe,’ though exactly how the show may evolve remains to be seen. One option on the table involves expanding the show beyond the 6-9 a.m. hours in which it currently broadcasts.”
