Reid gained recognition as a political commentator during the 2004 presidential campaign, which she covered extensively. She became known for her ability to break down complex political issues, particularly those affecting marginalized communities. In 2014, she hosted “The Reid Report” on MSNBC, a show that focused on politics and social issues. While the program was short-lived, Reid’s talents as a commentator kept her at the network, where she became a regular contributor and a guest host for other programs.
In 2016, Reid began hosting “AM Joy,” a weekend morning show that gained a loyal following for its in-depth discussions on politics and culture. She also authored the books Fracture: Barack Obama, the Clintons, and the Racial Divide and The Man Who Sold America: Trump and the Unraveling of the American Story. In 2020, Reid made history as the first Black woman to anchor a primetime cable news program with “The ReidOut.”
Despite her achievements, Reid has faced significant backlash from some viewers who accuse her of stoking racial tensions through her commentary. Critics argue that her coverage often frames issues in a racially divisive manner, polarizing audiences. These complaints have led to calls for her firing by detractors who view her rhetoric as harmful. Reid and her supporters, however, defend her work as a necessary critique of systemic inequality, reflecting the ongoing debates around media representation and accountability. What the future has in store for her, we have yet to see.
