My point is that I think she did a good and fair job at moderating regardless of her personal preferences. That is, if someone had no prior knowledge, they would consider all her questions reasonable, fair, and properly respectful

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

"Imposing" her preferences? BlueMTexpat Jun 2019 #4
Joy is off the rails. I'm done with her. She views herself as an advocate.. Kahuna7 Jun 2019 #9

In her position here as moderator, I did not see her "imposing her political preferences", thesquanderer Jun 2019 #20

Joy Reid is so obviously biased. nt NYMinute Jun 2019 #10
