Tucker Carlson’s daily show was cancelled by MSNBC Monday. The temporary replacement will be “Race for the White House,” hosted by NBC News chief White House correspondent David Gregory, Reuters reports.

The new show will air each weekday at 6 p. m. starting Monday, March 17.

Gregory also remains lead substitute for Matt Lauer on “Today.”

NBC News’ Andrea Mitchell will anchor an hour of political news at 1 p.m. weekdays, MSNBC said, while Keith Olbermann’s “Countdown” program will rerun every night at 10.

Dan Abrams will host “Verdict with Dan Abrams” (a retitled “Live With Dan Abrams”) at 9 p.m., while the network’s documentaries will air from 11 p.m. to 2 a.m.

Carlson has been at MSNBC for nearly three years. His show has remained low-rated throughout time, but he is not leaving the network. He will remain with MSNBC as senior campaign correspondent after the show goes off the air.

Carlson has also hosted CNN's “Crossfire” and PBS' “Tucker Carlson: Unfiltered.”
