WaPo Columnist Catherine Rampell Joins MSNBC as ‘The Weekend' Co-Host

Washington Post columnist Catherine Rampell is joining MSNBC as a co-host of the 'The Weekend,' where she will sit alongside Ayman Mohyeldin and another to-be-named co-host in the evenings. Rampell, a frequent guest on various MSNBC shows, made the announcement on Tuesday morning while appearing on 'Ana Cabrera Reports.' An exact date for Rampell's first 'The Weekend' show, which airs from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. ET on Saturdays and Sundays, is not set just yet, but a person with knowledge of her hiring said she will start this spring. Rampell, a Phi Beta Kappa graduate of Princeton University, is known for her work covering economics, politics and public policy, with an emphasis on data-driven stories. Prior to the Post, she worked at The New York Times, where she covered economics and theater. In 2021, she received the Online Journalism Award for Commentary. Her hiring is the latest in a string of changes from new MSNBC president Rebecca Kutler, who took over the top job earlier this year for Rashida Jones. Last week, MSNBC signed Politico alum and current White House Correspondents' Association President Eugene Daniels to be its new Senior Washington Correspondent, as well as The Washington Post's Jackie Alemany as a Washington Correspondent. Both will serve as co-hosts of a new version of 'The Weekend' that airs in the mornings, alongside Jonathan Capehart. Kutler's push to revamp MSNBC also included the jettisoning of longtime MSNBC anchor Joy Reid and the promotion of former Biden Administration Press Secretary Jen Psaki into a primetime role. Alex Wagner has also lost her primetime gig, but will remain at the channel. The moves come after MSNBC's ratings took a big hit following the 2024 election, but have enjoyed a recent increase following President Trump's inauguration.
