What Joy Ann Reid just said about Ailes...

[kpete]

The only MSNBC host willing to call it like it is this morning.

Ailes built an empire by creating a fantasy world
for white, conservative men, where women are agreeable sex objects and POC are predators.

[Chipper Chat]

3. If Lawrence goes she is a perfect fit for 10pm.

But doubt that it would happen.

[UTUSN]

11. Agree, on all counts.

[The Wielding Truth]

"Ailes built an empire by creating a fantasy world

Precisely, and the last election identified 63 million airhead Americans who have embraced those lies.

[Wounded Bear]

5. Wow, well stated...

WTG Joy!

[LisaM]

25. Yes, she stated it perfectly.

That fantasy world doesn't exist yet people think it's being taken away so they go berserk. Fox has a lot to answer for.

[PatrickforO]

6. Indeed. With all due respect to the dead, in life Ailes was kind of

a monster.

[LittleGirl]

26. ick eom

[Cha]

7. Oh Joy.. well done.

[smirkymonkey]

8. A most perfect description of the man's accomplishments in life.

[2naSalit]

9. And again, she nails it! ...nt

[Raster]

10. Ailes is the single person most responsible...

...for the brutal, partisan rancor infecting every aspect of our Country and way of life. The most heinous thing about Ailes is that he didn't necessarily subscribe to the conservacrazy, Faux mindset, but had no trouble peddling it to the politically naive and gullible for profit. Make no mistake, Ailes was the American Goebbels.

Rot in hell you bastard.

[Lucky Luciano]

12. Gingrich and Atwater started it though! nt

[Raster]

13. they all slithered out from the same nest of vipers...

...Atwater and Ailes laid the groundwork, they charted the belief path. Atwater and Ailes figured out how to tap into the McCarthy mindset and make it look legitimate and even PROFITABLE.

[librechik]

17. you betcha! and Gingrich still alive and seeking posts in the government he hates.

[annabanana]

28. Atwater.. goddamn.. THERE'S a name

that sets fires in the old brainpan!

[maddiemom]

47. True, but they didn't have the Fox forum.

[Alice11111]

37. Well said

[NotMyFuhrer]

43. Republican rogue's gallery!

Besides who here is called “the turtle” (Mitch McConnell) . . . Add to the perpetrators most responsible for our Dysfunctional Politics, Confrontation, Extremism, Polarization, and extreme obstructionism:

Newt Gingrich
Grover Norquist
Allen West
Dick Armey
Atwater (yes)
Ailes (yes)
Jack Abramoff
Ralph Reed
Khaled Saffur
Frank Gaffney

[maddiemom]

46. Absolutely.

Many media figures are agreeing with you this morning.

[Ligyron]

Gotta go turn on the electric TV machine...

[niyad]

[WinkyDink]

15. Thank goodness for the recognition of truth instead of lying eulogy blather.

[niyad]

18. SING IT, SISTER!!!!!!!!

[ProudMNDemocrat]

20. Joy Reid kicks ass and takes no prisoners......

Which is why I admire and respect Joy Reid so much. Her opinions are backed up with facts. She is blunt to the point of obscene. She makes people on the wrong side of an issue so uncomfortable, they have to hide.

[bullwinkle428]

21. He was a serial sexual predator himself. Not a shock that he went on

to create such an incredibly toxic workplace environment. All of this needs to be included in any credible obituary.

[bucolic_frolic]

22. Speechless

accuracy

[question everything]

24. Yeah, won't surprise me if Matthews will offer a sincere eulogy (nt)

[BlancheSplanchnik]

[Upthevibe]

38. Love Joy!!!!!!!!! n/t

[Tarheel_Dem]

39. Well, damn Joy. There you go again, telling the truth. nt

[Starry Messenger]

40. She's my fave.

[dobleremolque]

41. Improving the world...

Some people improve the world by having lived; some people improve the world by having died. I suspect Ailes falls into the second category.

[dchill]

44. K&R.

[Nitram]

45. One of his Seven Deadly sins.

[itcfish]

49. OK What is
