Steve Kornacki has quit his top role at MSNBC – as the station faces huge upheaval as it prepares to part ways with parent company NBCUniversal.

The TV presenter has left the liberal station in a major shake-up months after fellow presenter Joy Reid was sacked. Steve is famed for his quirky data updates during presidential election counts. He will now focus on NBC News.

Fans can now expect to see the 45 year-old reporter on shows like Meet the Press, Today and NBC Nightly News, as well as the network’s streaming channel, NBC News Now. Sports fans can also expect to see Steve providing stats for big sporting events aired by the Peacock Network like the Triple Crown races, the Olympics and the NFL.
