Donaldson may go to MSNBC

MSNBC is looking to shake up its schedule again. The cable news network already has a deal for a new show hosted by former Minnesota Gov. Jesse Ventura, and Tuesday, ABC News gave former White House correspondent Sam Donaldson permission to talk to MSNBC about a prime-time program.

Donaldson has been largely absent from ABC television since George Stephanopoulos took over the Sunday morning “This Week,” but he does anchor for ABC Radio, a show he would continue to do even if he took on an MSNBC-TV show.
