Mar 1, 2011: TV Newser: Martin Bashir Debuts His MSNBC Show
At 3 PM ET yesterday, Martin Bashir debuted his eponymous MSNBC program.
At 3 PM ET yesterday, Martin Bashir debuted his eponymous MSNBC program.
Martin Bashir (born 19 January 1963) is a British journalist, who was a political commentator for MSNBC, hosting Martin Bashir, and a correspondent for NBC's Dateline NBC. He was previously an anchor for ABC's Nightline after initially gaining prominence on British television with his BBC interview with Diana, Princess of Wales, and then his series of interviews with Pop musician Michael Jackson on ITV. On 4 December 2013, Bashir resigned from his position at MSNBC after he made "ill-judged comments" about the former Governor of Alaska and Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin
Bashir started work as a journalist in 1986. He worked for the BBC until 1999 on programmes including Songs of Praise, Public Eye and Panorama and then he joined ITV, working on special documentary programmes and features for Tonight with Trevor McDonald. Bashir came to wide prominence in 1995 when he interviewed (for the BBC's Panorama programme) Diana, Princess of Wales about her failed marriage to the Prince of Wales. Since then he has conducted interviews with, among others, Louise Woodward, the five suspects in the Stephen Lawrence case, Michael Barrymore, Jeffrey Archer, Major Charles Ingram, and Joanne Lees.
Bashir was employed by ABC and co-anchored their current affairs show Nightline. Along with Cynthia McFadden and Terry Moran, he took over Nightline from Ted Koppel in 2005. In August 2010 Bashir left ABC for MSNBC where he serves as a political commentator for MSNBC, as well as an occasional substitute host for Lawrence O'Donnell. Bashir had a role as himself in the satirical comedy film Mike Bassett: England Manager.
