Shepard Smith, Steve Kornacki and Joy Reid are jostling for Matthews’ 7 p.m. weeknight slot amid a chaotic anchor reshuffling at MSNBC after the sudden departure of Chris Matthews.
Joy Reid is said to be the favorite, while Brian Williams isn’t even in the running. MSNBC will not move Williams out of late nite to prime time.
Also, the 7 o’clock slot will no longer be called “Hardball,” as Matthews owns the name.
