However, this lasted only for a year, before she switched to Fox affiliate WTIC-TV/WTIC-DT, headquartered in Hartford, Connecticut. Gradually she rose in the station, reaching the position of a general assignments reporter. Nevertheless, Mika soon changed her job as she joined WFSB-TV/WFSB-DT, also in Hartford, and ultimately reached the position of a weekday morning anchor. Two years later, Mika arrived at CBS News, where she was made the correspondent and anchor for the news show “Up to the Minute”. From CBS, she went to MSNBC, but it lasted only a few months before she returned to CBS as a desk correspondent.

In this position, she was the lead reporter during the September 11, 2001 attacks – she was at the scene when the South Tower was hit. She subsequently held several positions, including substitute anchor and contributor to such shows as “CBS Sunday Morning” and “60 Minutes”. However, Mika was eventually fired from CBS News in 2006, apparently over salary disagreements.

MSNBC Career, Net Worth

Mika was hired by MSNBC, and rejoined “Up to the Minute” news program show at first; however, she also started reporting for “NBC Nightly News” and would sometimes anchor “Weekend Today”.

However, she left both shows once “Morning Joe” host, Joe Scarborough, chose her as his newest co-host. Since then, the two have become the principal anchors of MSNBC, and though occasionally criticism for their work, they have become quite popular. They have been often criticized by President Donald Trump, and have made a few controversial remarks on other politicians, but are still on the air and one of the most popular anchors of MSNBC.

Mika Brzezinski’s net worth is estimated at $12 million, while her annual salary is reputedly $2 million, as of late-2019.
