Rachel Maddow’s rant at her MSNBC bosses about firing Joy Reid and other non-white hosts has backfired… with her fellow liberals now calling on her to resign in solidarity.
The $25 million a year host took her bosses to task live on air this week saying it was ‘disturbing’ that ‘nonwhite hosts in primetime were losing their shows.’
But Bluesky users were quick to call on the greedy Maddow to put her money where her mouth is and resign, or risk looking like a hypocrite spouting hot air.
‘Rachel Maddow will have to resign from MSMBC (and leave $ on the table),’ one user wrote this week, months after Maddow secured her five-year re-up.
‘She won’t be able to maintain credibility on that platform,’ the liberal onlooker went on.
‘I hope she creates a true progressive network. America needs new media channels and she is the star.’
‘So, resign if you’re so outraged,’ another more impatient user remarked, paving the way for an even more full-throated request from another angered progressive.
