She is filling in for Lawrence O'Donnell.
I find her to be one of the best - if not THE best - of NBC's young talent. I can think of a few slots on MSNBC's schedule that would be far better with her instead of the incumbents.

(6,747 posts)6. Stinky, I will always be a fan of yours and TV.
Zerlina lost me during the Hillary years. I guess I hold a grudge. I do prefer her over Tiffany Cross. I was sure she, Zerlina, would get the Saturday morning slot.

Clinton Campaign Hires Zerlina Maxwell For Digital Outreach
February 11, 2016
https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/darrensands/clinton-campaign-hires-zerlina-maxwell-for-digital-outreach
WASHINGTON The Hillary Clinton campaign has hired Zerlina Maxwell, a well-known political analyst and writer, to join its digital outreach team, BuzzFeed News has learned.
Contacted by BuzzFeed News Thursday, a Clinton aide said Maxwell will be focused on a range of policy and cultural issues, including feminism and gender inequality.
Maxwell will also be focused on "coalitions generally, including African American and women," the aide said. Zerlina has been profiled in the New York Times as a top political Twitter voice to follow during the 2012 election season, and she was selected by TIME as one of the best Twitter feeds in 2014, a Clinton aide said in email to BuzzFeed News.
Maxwell, a former writer for Essence Magazine, traveled on Air Force One with President Obama in advance of his 2015 speech on the 50th anniversary of Bloody Sunday in Selma, Alabama.

Its funny, when I only hear her and dont see her she sounds very young. But on MSNBC she comes across as much more mature.
