So much for those "white man demands"

After accepting Manhattan institute senior fellow Christopher Rufo's via twitter to appear on her MSNBC show,host joy reid declined to engage a n a topic of critical race theory-resorting instead to constant interruption and insults,insisting "it's my show...it's how I want to do it."

The host of "The Reidout"- who is initially called Rufo's tweeted requests for a debate " a weirdly aggressive way to get yourself on Tv"- began the interview on Wednesday evening by addressing their online spat,calling Twitter a "hypabole zone"before
asking why he deserved to be on her program.

But I just want to just get to a couple of little factual things,"Reid said before asking a series of question about Rufo's qualification to debate critical race theory at all.
"Why would I need courage to have you on?are you,like ,an expert in the race of racial history?are you a lawyer? are you a legal scholar?in that part of your background.

Rufo,given the opportunity to speak for the first time,replied saying,Yes I'm a senior fellow at the Manhattan institute,where I'm running their intiative on critical race theory.and the reason that I reached out on twitter to you-and I appreciate you having me on-(is that )I enjoy this kind of cross-partisan dialogue

The Manhattan institute is a center-right think tank,not a hardline political group.
