Joy Reid is on hot water over a series of homophobic blog posts she did years ago. She denies the allegations saying her blog was hacked. But did they hack her Twitter account too? She has her supporters who sing her praises as ‘one of a kind, a whip smart woman with a penchant for truth-telling.’
Joy Reid is one of a kind, a whip smart woman with a penchant for truth-telling. As a fellow New Yorker, I couldn’t be more proud to say #ImWithJoy. pic.twitter.com/HZWMhkayyH

Twitchy noted,
One of the most principled journalists ever, you guys. Sure. If by “principled,” you mean “completely full of it.” Because here’s the thing: Joy Reid’s problematic posts weren’t limited to her blog.
while @JoyAnnReid denied writing the anti-gay posts published on her blog that I reported earlier today (https://t.co/HUHSgS5e9N), here are 4 tweets that are still up in which Reid makes transgender jokes about Ann Coulter pic.twitter.com/UaYCzorGGl

Final thought: maybe rent-a-pundit bro can investigate whether Joy’s Twitter account was hacked in 2010 while referring to Senator aka ‘Miss Lindsey’ Graham. pic.twitter.com/WZ3KEFX8j7

.@JoyAnnReid It sounds like you’re calling Ann Coulter a transvestite, or was your Twitter also hacked? pic.twitter.com/YYUxm436BJ

Joy Reid, you’ve got some more ‘splaining to do.
@JoyAnnReid I think the hackers did your Twitter account, too.

Honestly, we can’t wait to find out how “Dark Web” hackers broke into Reid’s Twitter account, planted homophobic and transphobic tweets, and did so right under her watchful, “principled journalist” nose.
Left her phone in the locker room and Anderson Cooper’s assistant hacked it, probably.
