Joy Reid claims MSNBC fired her without warning, speculates her coverage of Trump, Gaza led to ouster

“I think the other piece is Gaza,” she continued.

“And you just can’t get away from the fact that talking about Gaza in a way that humanizes Palestinians is not the usual way that cable news operates, or that any news in this country operates for whatever reason, that topic makes people uncomfortable.”

“Nobody had called me. Nobody had said, ‘You did something wrong, you’re in trouble, you’re on probation.’ I had gotten nothing. Then I get a text message early the next morning saying, ‘Can you talk at noon?’ And I was fired immediately. There was no warning. And I asked, ‘Well, what, you know, what’s the [issue]?’ Nothing. They were just like, ‘Oh, we just want to make some changes.’ They never said why.

Hmm, terminated without cause? isn't this grounds for a lawsuit?

Reminder: criticize this administration, get fired. Storm the capital and kill a cop, get a medal and a pardon.
