MSNBC is reportedly set to change its name to "My Source News Opinion World," The Wall Street Journal reported on Monday as part of Comcast's spin off from NBC Universal.

Part of its split from Comcast, MSNBC will be renamed to My Source News Opinion World (MS NOW) and will acquire a new logo as a result of this historic change of ownership

MSNBC is being renamed after parent company Comcast spins the cable news channel off into a separate corporate entity later this year. The left-leaning channel will be known as MS NOW once it becomes part of Versant, a new company, and is no longer associated with NBC News, staffers were told Monday.
