The Hill /MSNBC on Tuesday announced its coverage plans for the highly anticipated testimony of former FBI Director James Comey to the Senate Intelligence Committee on Thursday, but its biggest star, Rachel Maddow, is noticeably absent from the network’s on-air roster.
“MSNBC’s coverage of the hearing starts at 9 a.m. ET / 6 a.m. PT with Brian Williams joined by NBC News’ Nicolle Wallace and a slate of expert guests beginning at 9:30 a.m. ET / 6:30 a.m. PT,” reads a release from the network.
Williams has co-anchored all big political events with Maddow on MSNBC for more than a year, including on election night.
Maddow, 44, has not hosted her highly rated program since May 25, with MSNBC chief legal correspondent Ari Melber and “AM Joy” weekend host Joy Reid filling in.
Maddow did call in to a Melber-hosted show on June 2, however, to discuss recent developments of a special council investigation into Russian ties with the Trump campaign.
Her normally prolific twitter feed has also been quiet since June 2.

I’ll be back on the air tonight — 9pm ET MSNBC. Huge heartfelt thanks to everyone who sent good wishes while I was out — happy to be back!
Hmmmm, The Intercept in the news within 2X in 24 hr period. Certainly no fan of Trump or conservatism, Greenwald’s coverage of the upcoming Broadway play Russia! Russia! Russia! has interwoven skepticism of media overplaying the Red Scare. Playing both sides of psyops?
I posited earlier, someone dig into Greenwald’s offshore bank accts, see if there’s payola from the CIA.
She got a stray pube stuck in her voicebox.
According to her surgeon, Dr. Rush Limbaugh, Maddow was scheduled for an Addadicktome procedure last week.
