Piers Morgan tore into the disgraced former MSNBC host during a fiery segment on Piers Morgan Uncensored, exposing the hollow race-baiting excuse Reid offered for her firing from the far-left cable network.
The exchange quickly spiraled after Morgan rolled tape of Reid emotionally melting down over her ouster — a clip that showed her crying and suggesting she was fired because she’s black.
It can be recalled that Reid posted a video of herself crying while addressing the show’s cancellation.
“My show had value…And that,” Reid began before starting to cry. “I’m sorry…What I was doing had value.”
She then started bragging about how many far-left issues her show addressed while continuing to struggle with her emotions.
“What I will just say is that in the end,” she continued while an assistant handed her a tissue. “Is where I land is that the moment of guilt that I felt that I went hard on so many issues, whether it was the Black Lives Matter images of a young baby or a mom or dad that was killed.”
She continued to pat herself on the back for supposedly standing up for Asian Americans facing discrimination, defending illegal aliens, and bashing President Trump before turning her attention to the racist 1619 project, which she called “the real founding of this country.”
Reid then turned her attention to the Israel-Hama war, where she expressed sympathy for the Jewish State’s oppressors.
“The American people have a right to object to little babies being bombed,” she stated. “I’m not sorry that I stood up for those things because those things are of God, and I’m a church girl.”
“So, I’m not sorry. I’m just proud of my show.”
Morgan didn’t hold back during the interview.
“Let’s be honest. I don’t think you were fired after all those years because of your skin color or because you’re a Black woman. I think you were fired because your show just got increasingly unpopular. It happens all the time in TV — that’s why you got let go. Why play the race card?” Morgan asked.
BOOM. Cue the meltdown.
Joy Reid lashed out, stating, “First of all, I love the fact that your play the race card is your version of the race card. You literally are so fixated on trying to racialize conversations with me, Piers. I find it actually quite charming.”
The two begin shouting at each other in a heated exchange.
