MSNBC host Joy Reid sounded off over criticism of Vice President Kamala Harris in an interview over the weekend, saying she didn't get a fair shake because of the mostly "White, male" media.

In an interview with The Root, Reid claimed that the press didn't showcase the vice president's relatable "personality."

"Kamala Harris is like if your cousin became VP of the United States," she told the media outlet, after comparing Harris to former First Lady Michelle Obama. 

"I think she doesn’t get to show that personality often enough, and so people haven’t had a chance to get to know her," she was quoted as saying.

Reid said Harris had the "toughest" issues to deal with aside from inflation and the war in Ukraine, before suggesting the vice president faced an unfair double standard.

"Most of the media is still White and male. And their take on Kamala Harris becomes the take. It becomes conventional wisdom," she told The Root. But Reid implied their shared race and gender allowed the pair to have a "real" conversation in a recent MSNBC interview.
