MSNBC host Rachel Maddow got some more bad news this week after she criticized her network late last month following the firing of race-baiting host Joy Reid and the demotion of fill-in host Alex Wagner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her criticism comes on the heels of the network revealing earlier in the week that Reid\u2019s and Wagner\u2019s shows would be canceled as part of a broader effort to revamp its programming, with weekend shows hosted by Katie Phang, Jonathan Capehart, and Ayman Mohyeldin also being scrapped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cShe is leaving the network altogether and that is very, very, very hard to take. I am 51 years old,\u201d Maddow said during a show segment in February. \u201cI have been gainfully employed since I was 12 and I have had so many different kinds of jobs, you wouldn\u2019t believe me if I told you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBut in all of the jobs I have had in all of the years I have been alive, there is no colleague for whom I have had more affection and more respect than Joy Reid,\u201d Maddow said of her far-left friend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI love everything about her. I have learned so much from her. I have so much more to learn from her,\u201d Maddow continued. \u201cI do not want to lose her as a colleague here at MSNBC, and personally, I think it is a bad mistake to let her walk out the door. It is not my call and I understand that. But that\u2019s what I think.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI will tell you. It is also unnerving to see that on a network where we\u2019ve got two \u2014 count them \u2014 two non-white hosts in primetime, both of our non-white hosts in primetime are losing their shows, as is Katie Phang on the weekend,\u201d Maddow said. \u201cAnd that feels worse than bad, no matter who replaces them. That feels indefensible and I do not defend it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following those remarks, Maddow was\u00a0notified<\/a>\u00a0that she is losing some of her production staff to job cuts and reassignments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMaddow, the biggest star and highest-rated anchor at MSNBC, will get to keep her executive producer, Cory Gnazzo, and several other senior producers,\u201d The Guardian reported<\/a>, citing inside sources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBut the rest of Maddow\u2019s team \u2013 along with producers who worked on the other cancelled shows, hosted by Katie Phang, Jonathan Capehart, Ayman Mohyeldin and Jos\u00e9 D\u00edaz-Balart \u2013 have been given the option to claim severance or reapply for new roles at the network, the people said,\u201d the outlet added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maddow came under fire again this week over remarks<\/a> she and MSNBC colleague Nicole Wallace made following President Donald Trump\u2019s joint address to Congress on Tuesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During his speech, Trump recognized DJ Daniel, a 13-year-old cancer survivor who he made an honorary U.S. Secret Service agent to thunderous applause from Republicans, as Democrats chose to remain seated and refused even to clap for the youngster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After co-host Rachel Maddow claimed that Trump was politicizing the youngster\u2019s recovery, Wallace made her remarks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maddow said, \u201cFor the record, and this is disgusting, the president made a spectacle out of praising a young man who<\/p>\n
