Super bitter MSNBC harpie Joy Reid just got some bad news from brand new MSNBC head: You’re fired. Did anyone else just hear an echo of President Donald Trump? Maybe I’m losing my mind.
Reid was let go because her show, “The ReidOut,” which is horrible by the way, took a massive tumble in the ratings. And it honestly had pretty bad ratings to begin with.
Rebecca Kutler is the one who gave the most ironically-named television talking head on earth her pink slip, which is part of a massive overhaul of the network she’s put in motion. What’s even funnier is that she was fired during Black History Month.
The last episode of Reid’s program will air this week, bringing to an end the five-year run of one of the most awful, race-hustling programs in the history of journalistic television. She was utterly abhorrent as a host and instead of engaging thoughtfully and objectively with stories of the day or policies being promoted, she lashed out at people and used race to further sow division in America.
“To underscore that people no longer care for her toxic propaganda, Nielsen ratings for ‘The ReidOut’ totaled a dismal 778,000 viewers for the week of Feb. 20. In contrast, her rival in the 7 p.m. time slot — Fox News’ ‘The Ingraham Angle’ — had a whopping 3,444,000 viewers, more than four times the size of Reid’s audience,” The Western Journal reported.
“Reid’s viewership among the crucial advertising demographic of viewers age 25 to 54 was even more abysmal: a mere 59,000 people tuned in to her program,” the article read. “By comparison, 389,000 people in the 25-to-54 age demographic watched ‘The Ingraham Angle.'”
Things began to head in a southward direction the moment Trump won the 2024 election. Reid’s program was mostly focused on bashing the president and creating false narratives about white Christians to make them look like the “white devil” so to speak. It became clear after the landslide victory Trump pulled in that America was ready to cast off this kind of junk.
“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 percent drop in primetime viewership following the Nov. 5 result before rebounding somewhat in the four weeks following the presidential inauguration,” the NY Post reported.
“She was earning a lofty $3 million annual salary to host her nightly news commentary program, until MSNBC required her to take a steep pay cut that same month in order to keep her job along with fellow network host Stephanie Ruhle,” the publication continued.
President Trump got on Truth Social where he gleefully mocked Reid over her “non-existent ratings.”
“Lowlife Chairman of ‘Concast,’ Brian Roberts, the owner of Ratings Challenged NBC and MSDNC, has finally gotten the nerve up to fire one of the least talented people in television, the mentally obnoxious racist, Joy Reid,” the president said in his post on Sunday. “Based on her ratings, which were virtually non-existent, she should have been ‘canned’ long ago, along with everyone else who works there.”
He then went on to say he was surprised that “the LOW IQ Con Man, Al Sharpton, who has, perhaps, the lowest TV ratings in the history of television,” hadn’t been booted yet.
“What is he doing to Brian Roberts to stay on the air?” Trump said. “This whole corrupt operation [MSNBC] is nothing more than an illegal arm of the Democrat Party.”
At this point, the vast majority of the viewing public are well aware that mainstream media outlets are nothing more than propaganda makers who have a vested interest in pushing one side over the other, thus their coverage is biased and not to be trusted.
We’ve already seen a number of firings from these big time networks and that’s probably going to increase over time. Will these outlets finally get the message and change their ways in order to survive? I doubt it.
