Former MSNBC president Rashida Jones has been appointed chief executive of Uncensored, the digital media venture fronted by British broadcaster Piers Morgan. The appointment puts Jones in charge of strategy, operations and editorial development as Uncensored looks to broaden its mix of streaming and social content beyond its flagship programme, Piers Morgan Uncensored. Her arrival comes as digital news and commentary ventures race to build sustainable models based on talent, distribution partnerships and platform revenue. Before MSNBC, Jones held senior roles across NBCUniversal, the Weather Channel and local news operations. The arrangement gives Morgan creative control while preserving a revenue relationship with his former publisher as the digital venture develops new monetisation streams.
