Vinson, a professor of politics and international affairs, said the network has seen a drop in viewership since the November election and suggested that democrats decided to scale back their consumption of political news for &#8220;their own sanity.&#8221; Vinson also said Reid&#8217;s exit had little to do with her being a vocal critic of Donald Trump and more to do with new leadership and strategy at the network.
