Steve Kornacki Hardball

Kornacki had to abruptly host the rest of the Hardball with Chris Matthews show after Chris Matthews, the host, announced his retirement on air on 2nd March 2020. Chris’ two-minutes long announcement shocked both his producers and viewers as nobody expected him to retire that soon. His immediate replacement Steve took over the show after the break to complete the rest of the hour. Kornacki commented on his retirement saying;

“He knew the dark side of politics just like we all do. He knew about the ugly and unflattering aspects of humanity that politics can bring out and even reward, the things that rightly turn off so many Americans to all of it. But Chris could see something beyond that, he could see the possibility that politics could also be used for something noble, even amidst all that human frailty,”

Steve has also hosted the show before when Chris had to undergo treatment in October 2019. It is not clear if he will be the permanent replacement of Matthews.
