New Melissa Harris Perry MSNBC Promo: Those Who Work Hard & Save Should Earn
A Little More

MSNBC came under fire this week for a promotional video where host Melissa
Harris-Perry explained that we need to “break through our kind of private
idea that kids belong to their parents” and recognize that “kids belong to
whole communities.” Now, critics are again raising concern with yet
another controversial promo for Harris-Perry’s show.
Speaking outside on a sunny day, Harris-Perry says in an ad that aired
Wednesday morning:
Americans will always want some level of inequality, because it’s a
representation of meritocracy. People who work hard and sacrifice and save
their money and make major contributions — we think that they should earn a
little more. They should have more resources, and that’s fine. But we
also, however, have to have a floor under which nobody falls. And if you’
re below that — especially if you’re a child and you’re below that — we
are not going to accept that. You do have the the right to health care, and
to education, and to decent housing and to quality food at all times.
“From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs,
anyone?” Newsbusters’ Mark Finkelstein commented. |
