No joy in Joy Reid
2d ago
Just finished listening to the Joy Reid interview. While I’d been looking forward to her new show’s debut, this is no longer the case. Not once during the hour-long interview did Ms. Reid blame her own profession’s complicity in contributing to the disastrous 2024 election results, reserving all her shade for the Democrats. With such an abysmal lack of self-awareness she’d do far better on a traditional outlet. I, for one, won’t be wasting my time listening to a traditionalist, cloaked in a veneer of “independence,” who won’t own up to American journalists blatant neglect in reporting the news accurately. Not a tall order, since that is journalism’s defined role. The day Ms. Reid places her profession on trial is the day she’ll truly be an “independent” media entity. It’ll be on that day that I’ll tune in. The public desires accountability. Will Ms. Reid be brave/ independent enough to deliver?
Long time listener.

Would love to hear you have a conversation with Dr. Carla Hayden and Alondra Nelson, who just wrote a powerful essay about her resignations from the NSF and the Library of Congress Scholars council.
Love the show and your continual evolution

I just finished watching your latest episode or should I say listening to your latest episode because I had your last comments top of mine. I definitely would enjoy more video commentary directly from you on the state of affairs. Maybe a lead in before every interview or episode. I would also love if you found a way to bring back your Round table panel interview approach on your old show. That would be really cool as well. Either way, brother, as a fellow podcaster or who is also trying to tap into his community, keep up the great work! I absolutely love the show.
