Fired MSNBC host Joy Reid broke down in tears, uncontrollably sobbing after she was unceremoniously axed from her evening gig.
The former host of “The Reidout” appeared in a podcast on Sunday wiping away tears, as she claimed she was fired despite her show supposedly having value.
Reid went on to say she was proud she “went hard on so many issues,” including defending Black Lives Matter and illegal immigrants.
The liberal ex-anchor was fired Saturday as part of a major overhaul under the networkās new president Rebecca Kutler.
Months ahead of her axing, former Fox News host Megyn Kelly had predicted it would only be a matter of time til Reid was fired after the fired MSNBC host posted a TikTok video arguing black women should no longer help white liberal women achieve their political objectives.
Here’s a “readout” of Reid’s tearful comments, courtesy of Mediaite:
Iāve been through every emotion from, you know, anger, rage, disappointment, hurt, you know, a feeling that, you know, guilt. You know, that I let my team lose their jobs.
But in the end, where I really land and where Iāve landed on today is just gratitude. Just pure gratitude and and and gratitudeā. Not just because people would take the time to get on a call like this or to take care of me. But also that my show had value and that Iām sorry that it what I was doing and value and value.
And in the endā, Iām sorry Iām not. I try not to cry on TV and I think this kind of like me on TV. I apologize.
And that, and then it kind of. And then it matter. I think Karen is there and sheās been texting me as well. And so what I will just say is that in the end, thank you.
Where I land is that the moment that Iāveā of guilt that I felt that I went hard on so many issuesā.
Whether it was the Black Lives Matter issues of a young baby or a mom or dad that was killed, or when we opened up peopleās eyes to the fact that Asian Americans were being targeted and not just Black folks.
Thatā or went hard for immigrants whoāve done nothing but come to this country like my parents did and try to make a life and defended them.
Or whether weāve talked about what the president is doing that is subversive to the Constitution, that is injurious to our liberty, you know, defending books that people find inconvenient, you know, that Nikole Hannah-Jones put into our spirit that we need to understand 1619 as the real founding of this country.
Whether itās talking about any of these issues and, yes, whether itās talking about Gaza and the fact that we as the American people have a right to object, to have a right to object to little babies being bombed.
And and where I come down on that is Iām not sorry. I am not sorry that I stood up for those those things because those things are of God.
Responding to Reid, Kelly asked “Whoās crying now, Joy?” after pointing out the MSNBC host had mocked “white women tears.”
“Good riddance to the absolute worst person on television, and shame on NBC for letting it go on this long,” Kelly wrote.
