This is what Bernie hater Joy Ann Reid said about Bernie Sanders before she started cashing MSNBC checks

People who follow Joy Ann Reid from MSNBC know she is smart. She graduated from Harvard University. But, the same people who have followed her wonder what happened to her when it comes to the Democratic Party and her vitriol for Sen. Bernie Sanders.

That question resurfaced yesterday when Lee Fang dug up old Reid tweets from 2010 and a blog entry from 2008.

Back in 2010, Reid was a political columnist for The Miami Herald (2003-2015) and an editor of a political blog, The Reid Report (2000-2014).

In 2008, Reid called out Hillary Clinton for staying in the presidential race, after Barack Obama had the delegates, for three reasons – Clinton was insane; she was trying to make sure Obama lost the general election; or she was gunning for the vice presidential slot. Since signing with MSNBC, Reid’s tone has changed. In fact, she has been hyper critical of both Senator Sanders AND his supporters.

So how did a smart and progressive voice become a torch bearer for the establishment?

MSNBC, via Andy Lack, has been moving away from “liberalism” with an aim to create a centrist station. In 2015, he told The Daily Beast he wanted to rebrand MSNBC by “toiling to re-brand MSNBC as a reliable provider of breaking news in contrast to its previous incarnation, personified by former anchor Keith Olbermann and other personalities such as Ronan Farrow, Joy Reid, and the Rev. Al Sharpton, as an outlet dominated by left-leaning hosts and pitched to like-minded viewers.”

“Lack has targeted the network’s progressive programming since arriving at the network in spring 2015. He started with the daytime shows: Shows from Alex Wagner, Joy Reid and Ronan Farrow, as well as ‘The Cycle,’ were canceled and replaced by straight news.” He then began to add conservative voices to the line-up – Hugh Hewitt, Greta Van Susteren, and Megyn Kelly.

Rumor has it that Reid is working without a contract. In January word was “‘They haven’t renewed her contract. She’s been working without a contract for at least a month,’ an insider told us.”

No further information appears on her contract status.
