Psaki Responds to Question on Whether She Intends to Work at MSNBC or CNN: 'You Can’t Get Rid of Me Just Yet, Sorry Peter'

White House press secretary Jen Psaki responded to Today News Africa reporter Simon Ateba’s question on whether she intends to work at MSNBC or CNN at a Friday press briefing.

“I have more than enough on my plate here and so you can’t get rid of me just yet. Sorry Peter [Doocy] for you on that,” she replied. “And so I will see you all on Monday.”

Rumors have circulated that Psaki intends to replace MSNBC host Rachel Maddow after taking a hiatus from the network in late January, Puck News first reported. ABC and CBS News have reportedly expressed interest in hiring the press secretary.
