MORE trouble for Joy Reid

During Reid’s brief stint as a co-host and producer on “Wake Up South Florida” on radio station WTPS 1080 AM in 2006, she created a “toxic” work environment, superiors said. One told Fox News she was an “evil woman” during that time.

Reid’s co-host on the show spoke out to Fox News about her behavior:

Andre Eggelletion, former lead host of the morning show with Reid, recently spoke out about her for the first time in more than a decade, saying Reid created “the most toxic work environment I’ve ever experienced” and threatened him with violence.

“It was a very unhealthy work environment because of her attitude. She attacked me on a constant basis while I was there. I was even once threatened with physical violence during a break with her,” he revealed to Fox News.

Now named sources. I said last week I was done defending her - at least until the fbi checked out her hacking claim. But this has nothing to do with that.

And, WHY did this not come out weeks ago, when she was under fire for her blogs?

And, WHY did this source choose (or recruited?) Fox News to bring these revelations?

Something smells.

But that doesn't make this go away. They're all crawling out from under their rocks.

All I know is I'm sick of reading these stories and I have no intention of behaving like a right winger and ignoring all the smoke.

...and why he landed on Fox Noise.

Hey, go see if Alex Jones has any dirt on Joy Reid. You never know. She might be one of them alien reptile pedophiles who wants to put fluoride in the water to turn the FROGS GAY!

I mean, shit... GAY FROGS!



This guy has a workplace allegation from 12 years ago.

I'm pretty sure there are people currently working with Ms. Reid who can speak directly to what sort of work environment she promotes.

But please tell me what sort of smoke is the allegation that she is an "evil woman"?

3. Somebody on the right or far left is PISSED at Reid and is slowly digging up whatever dirt they can.

This grudge is deeply personal for whoever is holding it based on the slow trickle of news from the not so recent past. It’s reached obsession levels.

Thank you, too. I'm really amazed that a DUer would give any credence to anything they hesrd on that propaganda channel especially something aimed at a liberal.

one of the very few black tv hosts on the left before the campaigns start. She calls BS and fact checks. Who gains? Not anyone with the interests outside of those on the right. Sorry. Not buying.
