Steve Kornacki is transitioning to NBC News and NBC Sports, continuing as a primary data analyst and political analyst while expanding his presence across NBC platforms. He will contribute to NBC News’ reporting and programming beyond MSNBC, where his “big board” style helped define election-night coverage. Context and what’s known up to now:

• He left MSNBC in 2025 as part of a broader restructuring of NBCUniversal assets. NBC confirmed that Kornacki will remain with NBC, taking on roles that include political analysis for NBC News and involvement with NBC Sports, rather than continuing his anchor duties at MSNBC. This aligns with NBC’s move to separate MSNBC from NBC News as part of the spin-off process, while keeping Kornacki within the NBC ecosystem.

• In the new arrangement, Kornacki is positioned as NBC’s go-to statistician for elections and data-driven insights across multiple NBC platforms, including appearances on Meet the Press, NBC Nightly News, Today, and NBC News Now, as well as sports-related broadcasts.

• Reports indicate his brand and persona—data-driven analysis, approachable explanations of complex polling and results—will extend to additional NBC properties, with continued emphasis on data visualization and interpretation.
