Joy-Anne Reid destroys media for getting played by Trump with their headlines (VIDEO)

Joy-Anne Reid could not hide her frustration with a media that continues to get it wrong. She points out several headlines that Trump orchestrated that were far from reality.

Joy-Anne Reid is one of the few journalists that has not yet succumbed to the normalization of Trump or the promotion of headlines that are closer to fake news than reality.

It is clear that the press as an institution has no desire to change. One hopes that journalists like Reid and others who are speaking up as best they can will, eventually shame them out of their dereliction of duty.

Her scolding is well justified.

The media is not destroyed. It is still there. Most likely Ms Reid is preaching to the choir. Do you think any of her audience are media shills or FAUX SNOOZE fans?
