Joy Reid Is Out at MSNBC

Posted on | February 23, 2025 | Comments Off on Joy Reid Is Out at MSNBC

In December, I wrote about how Trump’s victory had humiliated his media enemies. It was predictable that there would be consequences, and now the consequences come home for one of Trump’s angriest critics:

MSNBC liberal mainstay Joy Reid’s show has been canceled as part of a major overhaul by the network’s new president Rebecca Kutler, according to a report.
The 7 p.m. program hosted by Trump critic Reid, 56, will be replaced by a new panel show featuring co-hosts Alicia Menendez, Michael Steele, and Symone Sanders Townsend, the New York Times reported, citing insiders.
The final episode of Reid’s show, “The ReidOut,” will air sometime this week, ending a mainstay of MSNBC’s lineup for the past five years, according to the Times.
It marks the first large-scale shake-up by MSNBC’s new president, Kutler, since she took over the liberal network earlier this month.
Reid, one of the most prominent Trump-bashers in the mainstream media, has been a long-serving anchor at the network, hosting the weekend talk show “AM Joy” since 2016 before being named anchor of the 7 p.m. slot in 2020.
She has made a series of infamous rants in recent months, including telling Trump supporters to “make your own dinner” at Thanksgiving, saying they should “suffer the consequences of your votes.” . . .
In December, Nielsen Media Research revealed that Reid had lost almost half her viewers since the election of Donald Trump, with MSNBC seeing a whopping 53% drop in primetime viewership following the Nov. 5 result.

That’s what I call Making America Great Again.
