Mehdi Hasan Departs MSNBC After Show Cancellation

Mehdi Hasan announced his departure from MSNBC after the network cancelled his weekend show, citing the need for a new challenge. His hard-hitting interviews, particularly about Israel, had sparked controversy, and his final show aired on Sunday. Despite not being a ratings blockbuster, his interviews drew viral moments, and his departure comes as a surprise to many. MSNBC has not commented on his departure, and Ayman Mohyeldin will be taking over the hosting duties for the hour.
