The bombshell announcement in February of the cancellation of Joy Reid‘s MSNBC show, TheReidOut, sent shockwaves throughout the Black community and media industry. MSNBC had major changes occur after Rebecca Kutler was newly president of the channel.
While she is staying within the network itself, Katie Phang was also affected by the changes with the cancellation of her show The Katie Phang Show. Host Alex Wagner was also cut and replaced by former President Joe Biden’s former press secretary Jen Psaki. Reid’s staff are not the only ones out of a job. MSNBC also abruptly cut much of the staff at Rachel Maddow’s show.
The news shocked Reid’s supporters, but her opponents such as President Donald Trump and his loyalists celebrated. This is mainly because Reid, 56, has taken digs at Trump and his role as a leader of the United States over the years. Let’s take a look at some of those moments.
