Joy Reid is not shy in speaking in a clear-eyed, somewhat confrontational way on issues that impact not only the Black and Brown communities, but the fact that our very democracy is at risk and on the line. Clearly she has a "liberal" slant. But I appreciate that she is not blindly loyal to the Democrats. She calls anyone out if she deems it necessary. She's smart, well informed, and has a sharp wit. I find her show informative and refreshing.
