Joy Reid will return to hosting duties on MSNBC when she gets a new weekend perch on the NBCUniversal-owned cable-news outlet.

Reid, who had hosted an hour Monday through Friday for parts of 2014 and 2015, will host a new show that airs between 10 a.m. and noon on Saturday and Sunday on MSNBC. This show fills the time slot formerly held by Melissa Harris Perry, who parted ways with the network in a very public fashion over disagreements about being pre-empted for breaking news.

bashing Bernie while claiming impartiality.

When she used douche-fingers to describe Bernie "marching with King" I tweeted that I had until then thought she was a journalist, not a "journalist."

Saved us money on her book, though.
