NBC News cuts ties with Ronna McDaniel, former Republican National Committee chair. The decision comes less than a week after the network announced his hiring, prompting harsh criticism.
“I want to personally apologize to our team members who have felt we have let them down,” said NBCUniversal Group Chairman César Conde. McDaniel's hiring came two weeks after she left her position as head of the RNC. She had expressed support for former President Donald Trump's claims about the outcome of the 2020 election.
