The triggered leftists at NBC News have won they day. Ronna McDaniel was fired tonight after the network decided to can her to stop a staff insurrection.

Here’s the news:

NBC News has officially decided to part ways with its newest on-air contributor, Ronna McDaniel, the former Republican National Committee chair, just days after she was hired.

“After listening to the legitimate concerns of many of you, I have decided that Ronna McDaniel will not be an NBC News contributor,” NBC News Group chairman Cesar Conde wrote in a memo to staff Tuesday afternoon. “No organization, particularly a newsroom, can succeed unless it is cohesive and aligned. Over the last few days, it has become clear that this appointment undermines that goal.”

Separately, McDaniel has been dropped by CAA, the agency that repped her in the deal with the network, sources confirm to The Hollywood Reporter.

The former Republican National Committee chair was hired by NBC News on March 22 as an on-air contributor, and she made her NBC debut on Sunday’s edition of Meet the Press, where she was grilled by Kristen Welker.

“It couldn’t be a more important moment to have a voice like Ronna’s on the team,” NBC News senior vp of political Carrie Budoff Brown said of her hire at the time.

But the move was extremely controversial within the NBC News Group, with former Meet the Press moderator Chuck Todd voicing concerns on Sunday’s show just minutes after the interview ran.

So what might happen now? Hugh Hewitt thinks he knows, saying Ronna is going to sue everyone who defamed her for breach of contract:

I hope she does. Again, I’m not fan of McDaniel but it’s really the principle.
