DRIP, DRIP, DRIP: Joy Reid’s Hacking Story Filled With Holes.

“I don’t think in terms of targeting [Reid] the juice doesn’t seem worth the squeeze. Why would you go through such a thing?” said McNew.

Proving Reid’s case, McNew argued, would requiring digging up up over decade-old data and proving tampering took place — something neither Reid or her hired expert have done.

“Her claims are incredulous to say the least. Proving what she’s saying with any certainly would be extremely difficult,” McNew said. “People’s viewpoints have changed a lot [in the last 25 years].”

Further undercutting Reid’s claim is that on social media she repeatedly exhibited the same behavior — such as accusing her political opponents of being closet homosexuals — that she blamed on hackers.

Reid repeatedly claimed right-wing author Ann Coulter is secretly a man and derided her as a “drag queen.” In a July 23, 2010 tweet, Reid corrected a CNN reporter who referred to Coulter as “her.”

It’s time for Reid to man up — not that there’s anything wrong with that.
