After Being Sidelined, Melissa Harris-Perry Might've Quit Her MSNBC Show

Is she still on the Wake staff?

She is, and this is how they referred to her in the article, "The Wake Forest professor and television host said she’s unsure what NBC News chairman Andrew Lack and MSNBC president Phil Griffin are planning by pre-empting her show but she’s not here for it."

She had Wake students on the show recently:

bang on. She humilated herself and the University.

She needs to get a job somewhere so she can pay all the back taxes she owes. Oh...that's right, I forgot. She had what was surely a very well-paid job...and still didn't pay her taxes.

She's just another victim of that systemic racism in the country today.

As I said on The Pit thread, she's gone full retard. I'm sorry she's affiliated with Wake.

MSNBC officially cut ties with her yesterday.

After Tense Weeks, Melissa Harris-Perry’s MSNBC Show Is Canceled

Apparently the breaking point for MHP was when she wanted to talk about the Formation music video and the network wanted her to talk about the election instead.

The following week, on Super Bowl Sunday, she said she planned to discuss Beyoncé’s new video, “Formation,” and how it addresses race, but was encouraged to focus on the election instead. She wound up discussing the video anyway but as she did, video of Jeb Bush and Chris Christie rallies in New Hampshire appeared in a box, a notable juxtaposition for a network that is now emphasizing round-the-clock election coverage.

Totally agree, what a great opportunity.

Spring 2016 – Election Travel: Wake the Vote students will travel as a cohort to the Iowa caucuses, New Hampshire, South Carolina, and North Carolina primaries in February 2016. Each WTV student will be assigned to volunteer on the primary campaign of a presidential candidate. In addition to their individual campaign volunteer opportunities, WTV students will convene regularly as a group during each trip to attend debates and events together; to share and discuss experiences; to meet key political and media figures; and to focus on how issues of Economic Justice are entering the campaigns.

Summer 2016 – Convention Travel and Campaign Work: In July 2016, Wake the Vote students will travel as a cohort to the Republican National Convention in Cleveland, OH and to the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia, PA. Students will volunteer or work as paid campaign staff on a political campaign for any level office. This work can be done in the student’s home state, in North Carolina, or anywhere in the nation. Students will post weekly journal entries and photographs on a WTV2016 social media platform.
