Mitchell is one of many high-profile anchors pursuing new roles amidst larger changes in the industry. Norah O’Donnell recently left the CBS Evening News to pursue larger stories and interviews at the network. Jim Acosta, meanwhile, departed CNN to launch a news show on Substack. And NBC News has seen the exits of Chuck Todd and Today’s Hoda Kotb.

MSNBC is bracing for its own exit later this year, joining the list of NBCU cable outlets being spun off into a new SpinCo entity. The network’s president Rashida Jones announced her departure last month, with Rebecca Kutler currently serving as interim president as plans around SpinCo continue to coalesce.
