They are devouring their own. It's hilarious.
Though she didn't necessarily do much to help herself. Instead of saying "I changed my views" they are saying she was hacked lol.
More Proof that Europe, much like the Land of U.K. is becoming a Horrible Horrible Place. Thanks to Leftists.
Lol oh leftists...
Port Authority commissioner bullies cops, tells them to ‘shut the f*** up!’ Now she’s out of a job.
One piece of shocking info:
"Turner received a law degree from Georgetown University and served on the National Finance Committee for Hillary Clinton’s presidential bid, according to her company bio."
😆
Lol I f*cking love this. Lol@ the fact we are not hearing a damn thing from the left. At least we aren't hearing what we would if this was a conservative. No calls to boycott her sponsors, nada. There is so much leftist hypocrisy surrounding this it's almost like this story was tailor made for this topic.
MSNBC's Joy Reid Says, "I Genuinely Do Not Believe I Wrote Those Hateful Things"
"Here's what I know: I genuinely do not believe I wrote those hateful things," she said on AM Joy. "But I can definitely understand, based on things I have said and have written in the past, that some people don't believe me."
Lol. Just waiting on that list of sponsors to boycott...

Why would they boycott when she was been suspended pending the investigation?

The problem is her column at the Daily Beast was suspended. She also hosts a show on MSNBC. I have looked for info of her being suspended from there. Can't find it. I mean I can't say for sure MSNBC didn't suspend her, but I just can't find a damn thing about it.
Adam, help me out, toss me that link about MSNBC suspending her.
Gavin calls it out.
I mean the message here is clear. "Saying this stuff is okay as long as you're a leftist and you hate Trump". That is what this boils down to lol. This story keeps getting better. Since Joy is a leftist she could have just said sorry in the very beginning and of course they would have forgiven her. But she claimed it was hacking, apparently got the FBI involved, then admitted it wasn't hacked but pulled a "I just don't think it was me" excuse.
Then now you have others on MSNBC making fools of themselves by more or less shrugging this off.
It gets even better...some MSNBC contributor tried to say this was done by wikileaks and the alt right. And no, there is no suspension of her show on MSNBC.

I want to make it clear I don't care about Joy's posts. They don't offend me and if I was her boss at Daily Beast I wouldn't suspend her. I don't want her fired or anything. But the hypocrisy is just quite staggering here.
Clearly you can see some of the people lending her support that work with her are kind of unsure...but they are just going along with what everyone else is doing.
Oh, and a bunch of these same people signed a letter in favor of Tom Brokaw. I sure as hell hope more women do not come forward lol. Rachel Madow and a boatload of other women from MSNBC signed a letter in favor of him.
