On Wednesday, MSNBC president Rebecca Kutler revealed she has been diagnosed with breast cancer and will undergo surgery next month.
Kutler shared the news during an internal editorial call on Wednesday morning, according to CNN’s media correspondent Brian Stelter, after first informing the network’s leadership and speaking privately with several of MSNBC’s top anchors.
