MSNBC anchor Mehdi Hasan has announced his departure from the network.
The announcement was made during the final episode of his canceled show on Sunday.
Initially, it was stated that despite the show’s cancellation, Hasan would remain as an analyst and fill-in host at MSNBC. However, his airtime was noticeably reduced in the months following the October 7th terror raid on Israel by Hamas.
After the attacks, Hasan amplified Hamas propaganda on social media, expressing views sympathetic to Gaza Palestinians and criticizing Israel for alleged war crimes.
Hasan, a British-born Muslim and naturalized U.S. citizen, previously worked for British broadcasters, leftist news organizations, and Qatar’s Al Jazeera network.
He gained notoriety in Britain for leaked sermons where he referred to non-Muslims as “cattle” living their lives as animals. These recordings were widely known when MSNBC hired him.
