Joy Reid Deletes X Account Amid Boycott
News summary

Joy Reid, MSNBC host, has deleted her X account, citing dissatisfaction with the platform's current ownership under Elon Musk and expressing that it no longer felt worthwhile to engage with it. She explained her decision in a video, stating that although she had not posted in a while, she felt uncomfortable contributing content to a site she disagreed with, and had primarily used her account to aggregate news. Reid's departure follows similar exits by other high-profile figures, including Don Lemon, who also criticized the platform's leadership and its alignment with far-right content. Publications like The Guardian have also announced a boycott due to what they labeled 'disturbing content.' Reid's comments reflect a broader protest among those disenchanted with Musk's management of X, particularly supporters of Kamala Harris. The reactions highlight a growing discontent with the direction of social media under new ownership.
