That's a shame, she's pretty funny.

They'll find someone else to anger and divide people.

Good piece here: Melissa Harris-Perry: The Host Who Cried Racism

If Melissa Harris-Perry is as sensitive to racism as she claims to be, then she must know that she has not only burned bridges for herself but has also made it harder for women of color to achieve what she has. Network executives may wonder if they will be accused of racism if they need to change a schedule on a black female anchor. Producers may hesitate to work with someone who may take matters into her own hands. In a single letter, Harris-Perry has resurrected stereotypes that journalists like myself and other women of color fight to keep underground: black women have attitude, are unprofessional, unpredictable and are difficult to work with. There are female minority journalists who fight racism and sexism every single day through their dignity, humility and stellar work. Their jobs just got harder because of Harris-Perry.

And what about the would-be minority guests on her show? The black and brown guests who struggle to find and audience or an outlet, and face visceral injustice on a daily basis? They lose out too. Even with a sidelined show, Harris-Perry still had a platform and a brand she could have used to continue conversations about race at a future date. That potential is now gone.
