MSNBC Set to Reward Leading Russia Conspiracy Theorist With Primetime Show

Reid has a questionable journalistic history.

MSNBC is reportedly preparing to promote on-air personality Joy Reid with a 7PM weekday show, rewarding the liberal media favorite with the primetime TV slot formerly occupied by anchor Chris Matthews. Matthews was drummed out of the network in March in a #MeToo scandal, becoming the latest in a long line of older men who were once the mainstay of corporate media networks ‘retired’ after sexual harassment scandals.

Reid is widely known as one of the primary adherents of the various ‘Russian interference’ conspiracy theories advocated by American liberals, broadly alleging a wide-ranging societal operation on the part of supposed Russian bots and trolls to install Donald Trump as President. But consistent reporting of sophisticated Russian plots that failed to surface from Robert Mueller’s 2019 isn’t the only journalistic red flag in her track record.

Reid became the subject of criticism from both progressives and conservatives in 2018 when some of her writings on an old blog were unearthed, in which she had used charged language regarding homosexuality- likening gay men to pedophiles, referring to conservative men such as Rick Scott who she claimed were gay with the title ‘Miss,’ and describing herself as ‘homophobic.’

Crass blog posts from 2009 aren’t really that big of a deal, but it’s how Reid responded to the revelation of the old blog posts that stands out. Reid suggested that the blog posts had been covertly inserted under her byline, claiming that a cybersecurity expert had informed her that an “unknown, external party accessed and manipulated material from my now-defunct blog.”

Reid accusation’s of a stealth hack- in which unknown actors all-but explicitly identified as ‘Russian trolls’ conducted a bizarre operation to frame her for politically incorrect language- was never substantiated by federal law enforcement, despite Reid’s claim that the authorities were investigating the situation.

You’d think a primetime show host on a major network would at least be able to come up with a better excuse than stealth time-traveling Russian bots framing her for calling male Republican Senators ‘Miss.’ MSNBC doesn’t seem to mind.

CNN propagandist Soledad O’Brien appeared before Congress on Wednesday as the Democrats’ expert on combating “misinformation.”

During the hearing, she called for her competitors to be censored and for alternative perspectives from the globalist-mandated consensus to be crushed.

“When news organizations make decisions based on ratings rather than responsible reporting, disinformation flourishes in dangerous ways,” O’Brien said while appearing before Congress.

“Cover the fact that lies and propaganda are being disseminated, but do not book people to lie on your show, because it elevates them and presents a lie as another side. Stop posing every story as having two sides, some stories, in fact, have many many sides, and are more complicated. And also, lies don’t have a side,’ she added, describing her vision for how news should be covered.

However, if O’Brien’s advice were taken by newsrooms, she would never be allowed on anymore due to her record of spreading reckless conspiracy theories about Trump being a Russian asset and other nonsense.

News aggregator @amuse posted some of O’Brien’s greatest hits on the fake news leader over the past few years:

Big League Politics has reported on other times in which O’Brien humiliated herself by posting falsehoods:

As usual, members of our esteemed media were caught lying on Wednesday, this time about the motivations for President Donald J. Trump’s visit to Iraq to visit troops.

Much ado was made when Trump did not visit Iraq on Christmas Day. NBC said that he was the first president not to visit the troops as Christmastime, only to correct themselves after Trump left for Iraq late Tuesday night. This led leftists conclude that the media had “shamed” Trump into visiting our fine soldiers.

“Shaming him seems to work,” CNN’s Soledad O’Brien said in reply to a Tweet by Brit Hume.

Hume had noted that by the time left-wing actress had blasted Trump for not visiting the troops, he had already visited them. Hume blasted O’Brien for her apparent lack of understanding of the concept of time.

“Yes Ma’am,” he said. “Trump read this Tweet when it was posted and time-traveled himself back to yesterday and flew to Iraq. Genius take.”

… What was wrong was the assumption that Trump had to be “shamed” to visiting the war zone. Embarrassingly, these leftists were proved wrong by leftist POLITICO.

“According to a White House official, the Trump administration had been planning the trip for more than six weeks,” said a Wednesday POLITICO piece.

Of course, the piece chided Trump for not being able to keep his trip a secret, citing two of Trump’s remarks about a potential trip to a war zone.

The Democrats are shameless in pushing their Orwellian agenda. They are at war with objective reality and will stoop to unfathomable depths to achieve absolute power.
