MSNBC host Joy Reid’s show has been canceled, sparking strong reactions, particularly from conservative podcaster Megyn Kelly. Kelly called Reid “the absolute worst person on television” and celebrated the show’s end.
The cancellation comes as part of a network overhaul. Reid hosted “The ReidOut,” a politically focused program, since 2020.
Kelly’s criticism revisits a 2021 controversy surrounding Reid’s comments on Kyle Rittenhouse’s emotional testimony during his trial. Reid compared Rittenhouse’s tears to those of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh during his confirmation hearing.
Reid previously drew criticism for remarks about white women voters following the 2016 presidential election.
Former President Trump also reacted to the news, echoing Kelly’s sentiment and criticizing Reid.
Reid’s final show is expected to air this week.
