NBC Muddies the Waters as Joy Reid's ‘Hacked' Story Collapses
2018-04-26
[Breitbart] Although the far-left CNN buried its big news under 15 paragraphs of excuse-making for the latest anti-gay scribblings that surfaced on MSNBC anchor Joy Reid’s old blog, what more does anyone need to know than the following: "The Library of Congress ... contains the disputed posts and lists them as having been archived on January 12, 2006."

But-but-but I was told the Wayback machine was hacked in an attempt to frame Anti-Trump Resistance Leader Joy Reid as a homophobe?

But-but-but I was told the screencaps had been altered as a means to frame Anti-Trump Resistance Leader Joy Reid as a homophobe?

Well, now we know (and CNN’s attempt to bury the news is the best proof it is true) that the posts in question from Joy Reid’s now-shuttered blog, The Reid Report, were archived all the way back in January of 2006. Which is another way of saying that Reid’s claim she was hacked makes absolutely no sense.

Why in the world would anyone want to frame Joy Reid as a homophobe in 2006?

#13  She can always run for Congress from a safe 'Minority Majority' district. Look at Alcee Hastings, for example.

#12  She can lie low for a couple of weeks

And then push a blindfolded gay off a fourth story wall on Morning Joe to consolidate her creds.

#11  Weeeelll… Lessee. You can choose to be gay (or claim to be) you can choose to be muzz (or claim to be). Rachel Dolezal crapped out at claiming to be black. Sean King seems to be getting a, uh, pass. So you need (or maybe not) a genetic component and then two unprovable declarations and you could be John Brennan, Kamala Harris, Elizabeth Warren...

#10  If Joy is not a Muslim she should consider converting retro-actively because whatever nasty thing she said about gays is okay coming from a Muslim. She can lie low for a couple of weeks, write her book, and then on the book tour talk about how she was persecuted for her religious beliefs.

#9  Well, a black, ex-muslim woman, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, is an outcast to the left, so do the math...

#8  So a gay, Black, Muslim woman would be the top of the identity power-pile in Dimmicrat circles?

#7  "Downlow" One of those mornings where the mouth said "don't even think about pouring coffee in here..."

#6  Neh, black trumps gay.

That's why there's the "lowdown" Right, Bath House Barry?

#5  Memo to CNN - either Reid's blog was 'hacked' or the 'Wayback Machine' was 'hacked'; please pick one...

#4  Muslim trumps anything

#3  ...does Muslim trump black? Or is this 'what day of the week' thingy?

#2  Her career is in ruins.

Neh, black trumps gay.

#1  Her career is in ruins. The only place she might be able to get a job now is Fox News. :-)
