ABC News national correspondent Erielle Reshef announced she’s leaving the network for its beleaguered rival MSNBC. 

News of her career change came Tuesday afternoon after MSNBC shared on social media that the network was ‘honored’ to welcome Reshef.

She will be working as a national correspondent and fill-in anchor for the liberal news outlet.

Reshef, 41, also shared the network’s post, stating: ‘An exciting new chapter begins! See you back on TV soon.’

The Oklahoma City native previously served as a weekday morning anchor for KOCO 5 News – an ABC affiliate of Oklahoma City – in November 2012.

Prior to that gig, she was an anchor and reporter for IBA News, also known as Israel Broadcasting Authority, located in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, according to her biography.

During her time with IBA News, she covered an array of topics, including politics, sports, news, culture, finance, and also reported ‘live from Israel’s border with Gaza during two separate escalations of cross-border violence,’ it detailed.

Over the years, the mother-of-two, has interviewed several media personalities, including former CIA Director James Woolsey, New York Stock Exchange COO Larry Leibowitz and comedian Sarah Silverman.

Reshef was also voted OKC’s Best Anchor by Slice Magazine and served as a media trainer faculty member for the Oklahoma County Medical Society Leadership Academy.

She had been with ABC since 2017 and will continue to work in the Big Apple for her new gig.

News of her career change comes amidst a huge shake up at MSNBC as part of a strategic overhaul from higher-ups.

A slew of long-time ABC employees were recently canceled by the left-leaning media outlet, including Katie Phang.

The Katie Phang Show was one of several casualties brought on by a lineup shift implemented by new network boss Rebecca Kutler in early 2025.

Just days ago, about a month after her final show aired on the network, she unveiled her new business venture – revealing she actually gave keen listeners a clue in her final MSNBC appearance.

Phang will join the MeidasTouch media group with a brand new YouTube show titled Phang Unleashed.

‘YouTube is the perfect place for Katie Unleashed,’ the attorney and legal analyst wrote on X.

‘We’ll talk about the law, politics, and culture. You’ll hear from trusted, familiar voices. And you’ll hear from new voices with fresh takes.’

‘It’s time we realize WE are the cavalry we’ve been waiting for,’ she added.’

Joy Reid, Jonathan Capehart, and Ayman Mohyeldin also said goodbye to their programs.

Capehart and Mohyeldin will fill different roles on the network as well, with news shows being built around them.

As for the network as a whole, their ratings have gone from bad to worse.

In February 2021, MSNBC averaged a total of 1.4 million total viewers every hour throughout the entire day and an average of 2.9 million total viewers during only primetime hours.

Today, those numbers have dwindled down to just roughly 600,000 and 1 million total viewers, respectively – a more than 50 percent decline on both ends.

The network is also known for being in the hot seat with President Donald Trump, who, in March, called for Nicolle Wallace and Rachel Maddow to be axed.

The Republican made the statement from the Oval Office, two days after Wallace and Maddow’s remarks about 13-year-old Devarjaye DJ Daniel.

Trump had honored Daniel hours before, by making him an honorary member of the Secret Service. The boy – whose dream is to be a police officer – was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer in 2018. He has since defied the odds and survived.

Instead of embracing the sweet moment, the pair chose to politicize the occasion, framing it as a form of propaganda from the president.

On Monday, Jonathan Lemire, a Morning Joe host, refused to read out Trump’s Memorial Day statement.

Lemire slammed the commander-in-chief for leaving out the military in his Memorial Day statement and refused to read it on air.

Instead, the president continued his tradition of using a national holiday to strike back at his enemies, this time sharing a high-octane message on social media on Monday.

In his Truth Social post, Trump berated criminal illegal immigrants who had entered the country as well as the politicians, including former President Joe Biden, who allowed them to do so.
