Topic: Media Research Center
One of the Media Research Center's year-end articles was a Dec. 28 rant by Curtis Houck against MSNBC host Joy Reid for saying things he didn't agree with:
With a full year under her belt hosting MSNBC’s The ReidOut, far-left pundit and generally awful human being Joy Reid made her presence felt with a night-after-night hatefest against conservatives, Republicans, and anyone who stands in her way, painting them as enemies of the people. All in all, Reid ran a show with rhetoric bordering on incitement.
[...]
NewsBusters was there to cover it all as we had over 120 posts to The ReidOut's tag with comments from Reid and guests ranging from the baffling to deranged to mind-numbing, to unstable.
Yes, Houck wrote most of those 120 attacks, showing that he hates Reid at least as much as he loves Peter Doocy. How much? He seemed desperate to find a new way to insult Reid in each post by working her name into a headline epithet.
- Soulless Joy
- Hateful, Racist Joy Reid
- Racist Joy
- Looney Tunes Joy
- VENOMOUS Joy
- Kooky Joy
- Bigoted Joy Reid
- Kandahar Joy
- Jalalabad Joy
- Kabul Karen (these were part of the MRC's attacks on Reid for defending Biden over the Afghanistan withdrawal)
- Crazy Joy
- Race-Baiter Joy
- Evil Joy Reid
- No-Joy Reid
- Racist Joy (again)
- RACIST Joy Reid
- Double-Masked Joy Reid (which is only an insult to right-wing anti-vaxxers like Houck)
- Dishonest Hack Joy Reid
- Racist Joy (again!)
- Hateful Joy Reid
- Race-Baiting Reid
- RADICAL Reid
If one has to resort so quickly to personal insults, it usually means there is no substance to the attacks being made. Houck has amply proven that with his eagerness to slur Reid in any way he can.
