Sen. Bernie Sanders said Thursday that he is "disappointed" in Comcast's decision to remove Ed Schultz from its lineup, seemingly confirming earlier reports that Schultz's "Ed Show" was one of several MSNBC programs headed for the chopping block.

In a long-anticipated move, MSNBC is planning to cancel several of its daytime and evening shows to make room for more news-driven programming. "The Cycle," "Now with Alex Wagner" and "The Ed Show" are expected to be canceled, though the network has yet to confirm that. NBC News Group Chairman Andrew Lack will hold a staff meeting later today, where more announcements are expected.

 

Meanwhile, Chuck Todd, host of NBC's "Meet The Press," will add a daily MSNBC program to his portfolio, starting in September. Former NBC "Nightly News" anchor Brian Williams will also join MSNBC as breaking news and special reports anchor.
