Joy Reid
While one Newsmax host raged against Joy Reid for criticizing media coverage of the Petito case, his own star colleague made the same exact argument as Reid the night before.
Matthews was back on MSNBC airwaves for the first time in over a year, briefly addressing the allegations of sexual harassment that led to his sudden retirement.

The comedian and former SNL cast member made her highly anticipated cable news debut after weeks of commentary on Twitter.
Reid misrepresented the electoral significance of the number 538 while also inaccurately portraying the 2000 presidential election and resultant Supreme Court ruling.
The MSNBC host offered a non-apology on her show Wednesday evening.
“That’s how we talk about the way Muslims act,” she said. “When you see what Donald Trump is doing, is that any different from what we describe as radicalizing people?”
