Joy Reid in ratings free fall amid credibility crisis over homophobic blog posts
Washington Times ^ | 5/9/2018 | Larry O'Connor

NBC News may have thought they dodged a bullet with the White House Correspondence Dinner taking all the attention from their host Joy Reid’s pathetic and disingenuous apology/non-apology over her past homophobic blog posts and subsequent obfuscations and distortions to cover-up the controversy. But, apparently, they didn’t.

Since Reid’s ridiculous contention that she “genuinely (did) not believe (she) wrote those hateful things” and her immediate apology for writing those things she genuinely believed she didn’t write, her ratings have been in a death spiral.

Contemptor – a media and culture website — founder Justin Baragona, who was previously a cable news watchdog for Mediaite, broke down Reid’s ratings for her shows that have aired since the controversy erupted. Baragona found that this past Saturday’s 10 a.m. and 11 a.m. ET hours of “AM Joy” finished last among major cable news networks in the key demo of adults age 25-54

(snip)

Joy Reid still has a job and NBC News is protecting her. Just like they protected Matt Lauer, Mark Halperin and Harvey Weinstein… until they couldn’t protect them any longer.

She is the epitome of an idiot. In fact she is giving idiots a bad name and they are tuning her out.

These people are scum retards. This is as laughable as the “I mis-remembered”. No, Reid. You and your ilk are damnable and seditious liars.

Of all the crap that has spewed forth from her mouth it’s the homo comments that are bringing her down. Poetic justice.

People need to learn that it’s impossible to expiate your “sins” of “homophobia” through any acts of penance, no matter how extreme.

I love seeing the wannabe Robespierres getting their turn in the guillotine, destroyed by the forces they helped to unleash.
