MSNBC's Joy Reid is more incendiary than anything on Fox News and sometimes flat-out nutty

Washington Examiner  "For all the media’s talk these past few years about dangerous rhetoric, disinformation, and so-called hate speech, it’s amazing MSNBC’s Joy Reid is given a free pass by her peers and colleagues.


"She is probably the meanest, most venomous person on television. She is also a font of misinformation (and sometimes disinformation). But Reid’s bomb-throwing and conspiracy theory-mongering serve the “correct” causes, so our otherwise extremism-obsessed media don't consider her a threat to our core democracy. (Unlike, say, conservative satire group the Babylon Bee.)

"On Tuesday, the MSNBC host accused Republican Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas, who is of Cuban descent, of being a race traitor for his efforts to amend the authoritarian monstrosity known as the For the People Act.

"Reid also accused Republicans of trying to enact new-age Jim Crow laws to ban minorities from voting." . . .
