16. Way back, she used to have a show (The Reid Report) on MSNBC at 2 pm ET (IIR the time slot)

Jul 2020

and after a year they ended that show and started shuffling black folk out of their main schedule and moved her to weekends along with Al Sharpton.

She was the only one on MSNBC who could actually stun Tweety into silence by outtalking him. I know she has had some serious issues in terms of past commentary and perspectives the past 5 or so years, but am hoping she can put it behind her and make the most out of that time slot with this upcoming election.

Congratulations, Joy! nt procon Jul 2020 #1
