Former MSNBC host Joy Reid is facing serious allegations of antisemitism after a former production assistant revealed that she went on a vile, unchecked rant blaming Orthodox Jews for the spread of COVID-19 in New York City.
The shocking accusations, which have only now come to light, paint a troubling picture of the leftist media personality who long claimed to champion so-called marginalized groups.
According to the former MSNBC staffer, Reid made the offensive comments during a morning conference call in the summer of 2020, as the pandemic was gripping the nation.
The ex-staffer, who is Jewish, stated that Reid claimed Orthodox Jews “only care about themselves” and that they were the reason COVID-19 was spreading rapidly in New York.
