Joy Reid’s evening news show on MSNBC is being canceled, part of a far-reaching programming overhaul orchestrated by Rebecca Kutler, the network’s new president, people familiar with the changes said. https://nyti.ms/3D1syG2

She had lost her way. Sick of her Biden hate--everything as Biden's fault even when he did good things like student loan relief. The new program already will be a flop with Sanders and Steele. She chose the Harris train and lost big.
Joy Reid is the most vile race hustling racist on television. She spent years spreading lies and vitriolic hate toward white people. Her imploding viewership showed the fruit of her toxic labor.
Let’s all follow Joy to continue to hear her champion truth against the bogus lies of the dishonest right. We need to support her. Rebecca Kutler better be careful. Ratings just might go down, rather than up.
What were Joy's ratings and does anyone really think Steel/Simone/Alycia will do any better? My guess is that the weekend hosts will do much worse in ratings. As far as show quality goes Joy was excellent.
Rachel Maddow at 9pm for 100 days was a good move. MSNBC needs to do what it takes to get her to accept at least 3 days a week. If Rachel is replaced by Jen Psaki then ratings will fall. Jen is fine but cannot fill the shoes of Maddow.
MSNBC cancelling Joy is a huge mistake. Joy has an excellent show at 7 pm. The weekend three hosts are fine individually but three hosts at 7pm will not work. There is not enough time for three hosts to each ask questions, give their opinions, and discuss among themselves. Bad move for ratings.
Joy is incredibly smart. Unfortunately, her show became, at least for me, the left wing equivalent to Fox News. Too much negativity. Too much ranting. I stopped watching it two years ago.
She needed a better angle for her show. Maybe she'll find it now.
Not gonna lie- since election night I have seriously cut my viewership. Nicole and Joy were two I’d still tune in for. They should cut blathering,Joe Scarborough. I completely stopped watching that.
This is truly disgusting!! Joy tells the truth, like Rachel & a few others at the network. Unlike Joe & Mika who have either been threatened or bought by Trump. Disappointing. Morning Joe should be cancelled, NOT Joy!!!!
Let’s calm down people. What just happened is that a woman just fired a black female host and replaced her with a black woman, a woman who is at least part Hispanic and a black man. Breathe, folks.
MSNBC should remove Jen Psaki and replace her with Joy. I always turn off the TV when Jen Psaki comes on. She just does PR for the Dems and isn't that interesting.
Isn't that kinda what Joy does too? They're almost all just mouth pieces for the Dems. Except maybe Tur. Boy did Dems get mad when she fact-checked Pelosi 😅
I stopped watching MSNBC when they were clearly lying about what was happening in the polls in August, September, and October. They led so many into believing that Kamala might win. That she had a chance. She was behind in every battleground state the whole time. No warning to their viewers.
Uh...what?
Since I'll assume you're a white guy virtue signaling, and lean in to the race shit, she's being replaced by a black woman, a black man and a Latina.
All better bud?
or about what specific topics they’re speaking about, just like when they canceled @mehdirhasan.bsky.social show.. “ratings” is just the excuse to make it palatable
What was she speaking out about? I don't recall her calling Israel out like Medhi did. She seemed like a doormat for the Dem establishment. Maybe I missed something?
it’s like “liberal bipartisanship”, a bunch of similar but different ideals that will almost never agree on solutions just that they agree there’s a problem, a failed democratic strategy that apparently never ends
Or, sometimes it also about those who work to appease the 34x felon championing white nationalism, while promoting Nazism, because they go along to get along.
I don't think giving the slot to Michael Steele, a never-trumper who endorsed Joe Biden, and Simone Sanders-Townsend, Biden's campaign adviser, is going to appease the felon
This is a bummer. Though I like the trio being moved to Mon-Fri, Joy Ann Reid has been a powerful voice who I regularly have watched, despite dumping other MSNBC shows when everyone was dunking on Biden. I hope she continues to loudly speak truth to power in a prominent position somewhere. 🙏
Seriously?! Another DEI sacrifice? I’m a faithful viewer of “The Reidout”. Getting an intelligent black woman’s view, especially now, is critical ! I’m so disappointed and disgusted with MSNBC
Long overdue. Subdued hatefulness encouraged by previous admin. who too was Black. Digging up yesterday to feel miserable today. And to turn insult to injury, Joy was AA, Ivy. Imagine that.
She's already reached escape velocity as have Rachael Maddow, Lawrence O' Donnell, Nicole Wallace and a few other MSNBC hosts.
Main stream media is no more.
So Trump bitches about MSNBC, I presume because they're is showing his that his approval ranking is tanking, and the powers that be at MSNBC turn into weaklings and cave letting the bully Trump win. Where's your fucking backbone, MSNBC?!!!!😡
Corporate media is going to corporate media.
That's why we have trump & maga, isn't that right new York times?
I mean you've been instrumental in normalizing Trump.
She should feel relief she no longer has to deal with MSNBC. Would’ve looked bad if she left first, so it was good to let them make the first move since her leaving that network was coming one way or another. It also makes it easier not to watch them when no one left- but Maddow.
I believe it. My kids (24 and 14) don't watch TV. They don't even watch shows on streaming, other than one or two. It's all YouTube, TikTok, and video games. That's their entire media intake. Honestly, I barely watch news _because_ it's too audience driven. I watch sports and a few streamers.
They better amp up on bodyguards. I already predicted this would happen. Already knew that the media would do this.
Putin and his friends Elon,Trump, and the Republicans are to blame.
Get your cash out of banks and get into credit unions. Don't buy EV'S or Starlink from Elon. Wake up.
No!She’s good.It would be good if she were joined by Michael Steel and Alicia Menendez…
Simone Sander’s voice is too whiny to be on tv… maybe she could be a correspondent, but she’s a bit of a detractor on the current”The Weekend” show.
Also, if Rachel does go to 1 day/ week… Ali Velshi please!
This can’t be true. This station was the only thing keeping me together. Joy’s show is one of those that truly help me and my family. MSNBC cowing too. There is no place to turn now.
I bet this has NOTHING to do with the fact that the FCC has been ordered to investigate the parent company, Comcast, for apparent “DEI” practices. Though the FCC does not govern cable, the adjacent erasure of both Alex Wagner and Joy now looks like a fear move. #CoupCluxClan #fourthreich
You have four fucking hours of Morning Joe. You don’t even need one. Chris Jansing has two hours of nothing. And you’re getting rid of Joy? Unbelievable!!!
and Morning Joe has 4 hours everyday in which they promote books, movies and plays. But MSNBC's ratings problems ard because non-Republicans are readers.
This hurts. We political junkies are a minority...10-20% of the population. Most take a quick glance instead of a deep dive. They don't dig out Substack etc. Joy was an easily accessible, sensible voice every night pointing out the madness. A big loss. https://www.democraticunderground.com/100220062100
Other Joy Reid fans out there, PLEASE TELL MSNBC TO CONTINUE HER SHOW. It's a great & always educational show & I love her sense of humor. They tried to pull this shit with Lawrence O'Donnell years ago & public outrage made them reverse course. (212) 664-4444 [email protected].
Yes! Thanks for reminding me. Ari is so forgettable that I forgot to mention him as someone whose show could be replaced when I called. I'd better call again!

That Joy Reid?
She needed a better angle for her show. Maybe she'll find it now.
There will be an “after” #thetransition. Everyone still wants to be in #thegame even if it’s to serve #onepurpose #TheKing
Those who forget the past are condemned to repeat it. #OperationHummingbird
Would like to see Ayman and Ali Velshi more.
I don’t care if the hosts are black, brown, or purple. If the guests and interviews are good, i am more inclined to watch.
Fearmongering and looking for the boogeyman around every corner doesn’t grab me.
Isn't dehumanizing people fun! 🤣

These giant networks want ppl they can control. Take heart… If they’re getting fired, they’re doing their job right!
Get your shit in order cuz we’re going to have to flood the streets
But her intellectual heft is undeniable. Bad move
Since I'll assume you're a white guy virtue signaling, and lean in to the race shit, she's being replaced by a black woman, a black man and a Latina.
All better bud?
she was too honest about Trump and friends.😑
MSNBC just bent the knee. They fired the only prime time BLACK host they had! The other WHITE host are all in place.
MSNBC cancels Joy Reid’s show as network makes major shakeup.
NO changes to Morning Joe that lost viewersafter the bent the knee?
People called Joy Reid’s show lefty. But aren’t all the shows on MSNBC lefty shows. Why cancel the only BLACK WOMAN on prime time!!
She supported Obomba's wars on Brown people.
But then after Trump won she suddenly regained her opposition to racism.
Racism is not exclusive to white people.
Because if you don’t have a cpl examples, maybe she’s not the racist in this conversation
Main stream media is no more.
That's why we have trump & maga, isn't that right new York times?
I mean you've been instrumental in normalizing Trump.
Eliminating a needed voice and talent. Alicia Menendez? No, merci.

Another non white, none male person, removed!
Discusting America!
I'd fire Tur first, but Melber should be right behind her.
