Geoff Bennett Is Stepping Away From His Full-Time Role at NBC News

By A.J. Katz 

NBC News White House correspondent and MSNBC fill-in anchor Geoff Bennett announced on Twitter that he will no longer hold those roles at the end of the week.

Bennett did say that he will remain a contributor at the network, adding, “I look forward to soon sharing where you can find me next.”

In addition to his job covering the White House, Bennett has been guest-hosting the 2 p.m. hour on MSNBC while Katy Tur has been on maternity leave. However, Tur announced on Twitter last week that she’ll be returning to her 2 p.m. show on Monday, Nov. 15.
