On Friday, Variety reported that MSNBC was not renewing the contract of Tiffany Cross, leading to the abrupt decision to cut ties with the weekend host.
With Cross now out of the cable news channel, her time slot occupied by “The Cross Connection” will go to rotating guests until a permanent replacement is found.
