(23,511 posts)A strange story about MSNBC host Joy Reid has been unfolding for a week. It began when a Twitter user with about 1,000 followers, @Jamie_Maz, dug up what appeared to be homophobic posts on Reids defunct blog, the Reid Report. They were similar in nature to posts that Reid apologized for as insensitive back in December, after @Jamie_Maz brought those to light.
The new round of posts contain a lot of cliche gay jokes about Charlie Crist and others, concerns that adult gay men tend to be attracted to very young, post-pubescent types, bringing them into the lifestyle, and commentary like part of the intrinsic nature of straightness is that the idea of homosexual sex is ... well ... gross ... even if you think that gay people are perfectly lovely individuals.

I'm not buying that phrase today as one Joy Reid would use.
