MSNBC Undergoing ‘Lamest Rebrand Since ‘Lean Forward’ (the New Logo’s Already Getting Mocked) – Twitchy

Tired of all the winning yet?

Before long MSNBC, which has been home to some of the most glorious election night meltdowns in recent history, will be no more. Yes, that’s right, Donald Trump remains in office for a second term and MSNBC as we know it is going the way of the dinosaur. 

Here’s the new look:

MSNBC will be renaming itself to this. And this isn’t a joke. pic.twitter.com/3TRxvrIXlA

What a surreal last several years it’s been…

MSNBC is rebranding as MS NOW. Good lord. MSNBC’s brand is so toxic that they won’t even let them use the NBC brand any more.

The acronym reportedly stands for “My Source for News Opinion and the World”: 

MSNBC is changing its name to MS NOW (short for My Source for News Opinion and the World).

MSNBC will have a new name as it seeks to carve out an identity that will have it competing for scoops and news with current corporate sibling NBC News following the spin-off of the bulk… pic.twitter.com/3QOvpP8ZBL

Wait, just being a nearly 24/7 Trump Derangement Network wasn’t working out in the long term for all involved parties? Go figure:

MSNBC will have to take a new name in months to come as it seeks to carve out an identity that will have it competing for scoops and news with current corporate sibling NBC News. MSNBC will soon come to be known as My Source for News Opinion and the World, or MS NOW, following the spin off of the bulk of NBCUniversal’s cable assets into a new publicly traded company called Versant. The changes were detailed in a memo to staffers Monday by Mark Lazarus, who will run Versant as its founding CEO.

Cue that picture of Trump working at a McDonalds leaning out the window smiling and waving. 

Oooof. RIP MSNBC

The lamest rebrand since “Lean Forward” for those old enough to remember that https://t.co/jRmBtgnbw8

They “leaned forward” alright, and fell head first into the toilet. 

I have my doubts this rebranding will be successful, especially since there’s not much point to MSNBC, whatever it’s called, without the NBC association. https://t.co/NKDcfJxPgi

We’re pretty sure the new logo is going to get the social media treatment: 

How did they NOT catch this on the logo redesign?! 😂

“TDS Now” would have also been an acceptable change for that bunch.
