“ReidOut” host Joy Reid made her final bow on MSNBC by sounding the alarm about “fascism” in America.
“We begin tonight with what I think is the question; when you are in the midst of a crisis and specifically a crisis of democracy: How do you resist– when fascism isn’t just coming, It’s already here? So, what, if anything, can you do about it?” Reid began her show Monday. “For one thing, you can try to learn from history, from what people in this situation, in countries around the world and in America have done before. As my friend Rachel Maddow always says, history is here to help.”
“The first rule is to fight back, to never stop resisting. Do not obey in advance, as [anti-Trump historian] Tim Snyder put it… Even if it’s scary or uncomfortable or inconvenient, just keep saying no. Or finding creative ways to say no in small ways and large,” she later said.
Ayman Mohyeldin’s “Ayman Mohyeldin Reports,” Katie Phang’s “The Katie Phang Show” and Jonathan Capehart’s weekend programs have all been canceled, but the three hosts will remain with the network in different roles.
MSNBC is also in talks to add Politico’s Eugene Daniels and New York University law professor Melissa Murray to potentially join the network, Fox News Digital has learned.
Additionally, NBC’s Lester Holt will be stepping down as anchor of “NBC Nightly News” later this year, focusing on his duties as “Dateline” host on a full-time basis going forward.
