As Piers Morgan continues to expand his media endeavors, he is adding leadership to his organization by selecting former MSNBC President Rashida Jones as his new CEO.
Jones served as the president of MSNBC from 2020 to 2025. She exited the organization as the cable channel was in the midst of being spun away from NBCUniversal, along with sister outlets like CNBC. Following her departure, the network was rebranded as MS NOW.
The appointment of Rashida Jones comes as Piers Morgan continues to see an influx of investors to his company. Earlier this year, investors injected $30 million into the company.
Amidst the announcement that Jones had been tabbed as CEO, it was also announced that Raine Ventures, Antenna Group, and the Reuben Brothers are now part of a capital agreement. Joe Ravitch, partner and co-founder of The Raine Group, will serve on the company’s board of directors.
Currently, Piers Morgan Uncensored is the flagship program of the entity. However, the organization hopes to grow into a “multi-genre and talent-driven digital network.” The company is currently licensing Morgan’s show to the UK’s Channel 5 to syndicate the program on terrestrial television.
