Far-left MSNBC host Joy Reid’s ratings have gotten so bad she may be on her way out, according to a report.
MSNBC host Joy Reid’s show has posted its lowest-rated month ever, shedding 51% of its debut audience from 2020.
Her show, “ReidOut,” finished April with its smallest monthly audience ever since the program began nearly two years ago.
Fox News :
“ReidOut” averaged 1.1 million viewers during the news-heavy month, a 31% decline from April of last year. She also shed 11% of viewers who tuned in last month and a staggering 51% compared to the show’s debut month of July 2020.
“ReidOut” has also lost 57% of her total audience among the advertiser-coveted demographic of adults age 25-54 since the program launched in July 2020, finishing April with a dismal demo average of only 124,000 viewers. “ReidOut” viewership during April was MSNBC’s least-watched month during the weeknight 7 p.m. hour among the critical demo since July 2015.
During April, every single Fox News Channel weekday program – including “FOX & Friends First” which airs from 4-6 a.m. ET – outdrew “The ReidOut.”
Reid has also made headlines lately by making a series of outlandish comments.
Earlier this week, she blamed “white and male media” for Vice President Kamala Harris’s dismal approval ratings.
Before then, the host was again criticized for claiming Elon Musk is trying to purchase Twitter because he missed the South African Apartheid regime. She also said conservatives wanted to come into the Twitter “culture” and openly harass and attack people.
In late April, Fox News host Greg Gutfeld poked fun at Reid by saying MSNBC was too “terrified” to ever fire her.
Gutfeld opined that Reid’s “scam” was to call everyone around her “racist” and that she had executed her plan so well that MSNBC was probably too scared to let her go because she would call them racists, too.
“The ghouls saying Musk is pro-hate speech, always fling the hate first. lesson: they can call you an evil racist; but fight back? thats labeled hate speech. How joy reid remains employed is a tribute to her boss’s cowardice,” Gutfeld tweeted.

All of this comes after media reporter Jon Nicosia recently that “there is serious talk all the way up the chain at Comcast about Joy Reid’s future at MSNBC.”
Reid has made a , but one could argue she’s also made some defamatory comments about Kyle Rittenhouse.
After a jury found him not guilty on all five counts, Reid claimed that Rittenhouse’s acquittal has a historic precedent that goes back to the days of slavery.
“I think we have to keep in mind, when we’re watching the criminal justice system at work, that it was designed to do exactly what it did today,” Reid told her fill-in host Jason Johnson. “Gun laws helped to enhance the design to allow this verdict to happen today.
This country was built on the idea that White men had a particular kind of freedom and a particular kind of citizenship that only they have that gives, you know, from the slave catchers on, the right to inflict violence In the name of protecting property. That’s like the foundational creation of the United States.”
Media critic Joe Concha made the suggestion week that Reid could become the target of a lawsuit from Rittenhouse.
“That was exhibit A, B, C, D, and E right there,” Concha said. “The next chapter in the Kyle Rittenhouse story are likely multiple defamation lawsuits against not only several media outlets but also MSNBC in particular and a host named Joy Reid, who we had the pleasure of hearing.”
“As for Mrs. Reid and multiple contributors calling Rittenhouse a racist, a white supremacist and, most importantly, guilty until proven innocent… I have got four words for you: ‘Covington Catholic Nicholas Sandmann’ – who sued CNN for what, $275 million, and forced them to settle,” he added.
