Do you recall the scene in Spike Lee's "Malcolm X" in which, with a slight hand movement, Malcolm controls an army of Nation of Islam adherents?

James Clyburn and Stacey Abrams demonstrated similar power in 2020. A crucial base is growing restless and frustrated, i.e. Black citizens are tired of being taken for granted by the Administration, the Democratic Party, the media, and by our fellow Americans. Remember Clyburn and Abram's galvanizing skills. Remember the Democratic party needs the Black vote.

We are not surprised by today's political upheaval, but remain incredulous in the face of the naïveté of those alleged compatriots to our cause. "It" can and is happening here. Now. But you no longer heed us, the canaries in the coal mine.

Wake up, MSNBC, and stop preaching *at* the choir. Promote and reward those in your ranks sworn to democracy, fairness and truth. There is a festering clog in the system. When even Chuck Todd gets a whiff of the malodor and shifts his perspective, you know something's amiss.

Joy Reid probably has the most secure job of all at MSNBC. There is no way that MSNBC is going to fire the only black host it has during its evening lineup -- not in today's political climate and not with Rashida Jones in charge of the network. And if Reid were fired, she would undoubtedly be replaced by another black host -- probably someone like Tiffany Cross or Jason Johnson (who DataLoungers hate even more).

Won't happen. They did that with Al Sharpton years ago. They moved him from weeknights to the weekends (and replaced him with Ari Melber). More recently, they canceled Joshua Johnson's weekend show and moved him to Peacock. If they moved Joy back to weekends, there would be huge backlash, with black people accusing MSNBC of canceling or demoting all of its black hosts. There would be criticism that MSNBC relegates all of its black hosts to the weekend "ghetto." Joy would have to fuck up pretty badly to lose her 7 p.m. slot.

Clearly you're not gay since you're apologizing for her homophobia.

But even so, her bigger sin was her LYING and poor attempts at a COVER UP. Pretending she was hacked, pretending she called the FBI, and then issuing a FAKE APOLOGY ("I don't believe I wrote those things") and then finally only actually apologizing to the Trans community but NOT THE GAY community.

It would look bad for the network, regardless of how popular or unpopular Joy might be. Also, Joy has only been in the 7 p.m. slot for less than 2 years. By moving her back to the weekends, MSNBC would be admitting that it had made a big mistake. Also, with Brian gone and Rachel on her way out as a daily host, there's already a lot of instability in the evening lineup. Getting rid of Joy would only add more instability.

R74 I would suggest you discuss Joy with some black people before you presume anything.

Back at LSA these are typical comments:

Joy Ann Reid isn't pro anything black. “Ados” or African, Caribbean, nothing. She is the ultimate conformist. She doesn't even seem proud of her heritage. Too busy licking yt America’s rear end hole. I could never relate to this bitch. Wannabe Gwen Ifill, she’d NEVAH. Someone get this bitch off television.

Good. She’s not a real journalist. Her takes were annoying and ill-informed. Her hair and makeup were never on point.

She's pro her black ass. She's a grifter and being a democratic shill pays well.

Joy Reid isn't fact based. She's selective opinionated commentary. She doesn't have anything in common with the average black woman. She's ivy league educated and in the top one percent. Her children attend private schools and she's married and resides in a well to do neighborhood. Yet, she spends her time reminding ADOS that their oppressed and can't achieve what she has done.

by Anonymousreply 103January 8, 2022 3:02 AM

I don't think she does a great job. She wants trash talk. Pelosi at the 92nd St Y did not give it to her, despite Joy's pushing. She does get good guests, though. She was very fortunate to get Chuck Schumer, who rarely provides interviews. I wanted to see him when he was on Maddow's show a couple of nights later but my cable went out after a power outage and I missed it. Reid was just inept, but she lucked out with that pushiness. Schumer is not used to interviews and she riled him up. Ultimately he ended up spilling the fact that moderate Senators including Angus King, Tim Kaine and one other person are talking to Manchin daily about how hard he is making to for them to run for re-election. I'm surprised it wasn't covered more because he dropped names and it was about their personal issue, not the public issue.

R108, She certainly was that person when she reluctantly had to interview Pete Buttigieg when he was running for President. She was so condescending and flippant towards him. She couldn't hide her scorn as she tried to rush him through the interview so she could get it over with.

Oh listen, there is no bigger Pete fan than me, but if you want to call out Joy for being mean to Pete in his interview then you had better call out Rachel Maddow too.

And yes, many of you are using past comments to mask what you really don't like about Joy. I don't immediately jump to racism as a reason for anything, but some of the comments on this thread sound eerily similar to some of the comments on Twitter about this. Then you click on the accounts saying those things and they're filled with racist bullshit.

We're talking about Joy, not Rachel R119. Plenty has been said about the way Rachel treated Pete, too and her distain because of how long it took him to come out.

But, the subject is Joy's homophobia, which has nothing to do with her race. Her homophobia has everything to do with why so many dislike her. She made homophobic remarks years ago and claimed someone hacked her acct. and only a year or so ago, her homophobia reared its ugly head. She hasn't changed one bit. So, if it walks like duck.........

R111, I had the privilege of dinner with Trudy Haines; smart, interesting, engaging, charismatic. The elusive 'it' quality. Beautiful and warm. A wonderful evening.

How about a show for the fabulous Juanita Tolliver? Sort of a '60 Minutes' meets 'Entertainment Tonight' with gorgeous Juanita at a Lucite desk with legs for days ala Mary Hart. Her political commentary is delivered with such nuance that I never take my eyes off her; the lone eyebrow raise, the subtle head tilt. A news/interview format with pop culture elements to attract younger viewers, and give the rest of us a break from the perpetual Trump/COVID/evil republicans/voter suppression topics featured day after day on MSNBC.

Reid was so reluctant that she's invited him on her show 5 or 6 times now. She continues to invite him back. Because of the format of the show, Reid often pressed for time

R122, I was not that impressed with her until very recently. I think she's often on Ari Melber's show and has not been that interesting to me. But she was interviewed recently on a show that she is not often on (Laurence O'Donnell's maybe) and she was thoughtful, articulate and nuanced in response to the questions. Very good interview. I'd want to see more of that and then see what she could do with her own show.

That was the most sociopathic Miss America win I've ever seen. I think there was even a book out by one of the judges that year in which he was shocked that Carlson won; that she was definitely not ready for prime time. Pun (?) intended.

I think R136 is referring to Gretchen Carlson and her Miss America win.

R136 is also correct in that one of the judges did write a book about his experiences being a preliminary judge there, and judging the Cannes Film Festival a few months earlier. He was not happy that the final night judges chose her to win, and called her "Miss Piggy" in his book.

1. After graduating from Harvard in the 90s, Reid worked as a tv journalist in the 90's. She also wrote about politics, including as a political columnist for the Miami Herald. MSNBC brought her on because of her coverage of the killing of Trayvon Martin. She's not now nor has she ever been an actress. She was hired to be a tv journalist, because she was qualified for the job.

2. You're pretending that the majority of the country didn't oppose gay marriage until fairly recently. Republicans continue to fight against gay rights. They vast majority of white voters vote Republican. Yet white Republicans are credited with having evolved,

3. Your definition of racism = nonwhites speaking out against white supremacy.
