Weekends with Alex Witt is a news program on MSNBC anchored by Alex Witt. The program airs in the morning and in the afternoon on both Saturdays and Sundays in the Eastern Time Zone.[1]
Witt previously anchored the weekend edition of MSNBC Live. When MSNBC announced that regular contributor Chris Hayes would be hosting a new weekend talk show, she was given a branded program as part of the network's new weekend morning lineup.[2][3] Weekends with Alex Witt and Up with Chris Hayes debuted on September 17, 2011.
During the 2015 MSNBC daytime reshuffling, Weekends was stripped from its weekend programming. Alex Witt remained to be hosting during the same weekends 12PM - 2 PM time slot, however it is being grouped as part of MSNBC Live. A few years later, her time slot was reverted back to Weekends with Alex Witt and branded separately from MSNBC Live.
