Courtesy of NBC News NBC News will cease airing its one hour of primetime programming on the “NBC News Now” streaming service as part of a review of its resources, according to a person familiar with the matter — resulting in the end of “Stay Tuned,” a show that streamed from the west coast at 8 p.m., and the elimination of a handful of positions across the NBCUniversal news unit.
Gadi Schwartz, the NBC News correspondent who anchored “Stay Tuned,” will continue to work for the news division, this person said. Producers who worked on the program will have the opportunity to apply for nearly 50 open positions that will be available at NBC News, this person says. Many of the roles involve working on “Dateline” or the news specials department and there is hope, this person says, that many of those affected will take up those positions.
