Joy Reid apologizes for 'dumb' tweets but maintains that homophobic blog post was written by hackers and not her as she concedes: 'I understand why people don't believe me'
Reid apologized during her morning show on Saturday for her 'dumb' tweets
She maintains however that she did not write newly uncovered blog posts
The MSNBC host said she 'genuinely believes' that she did not write the material
They were uncovered by a Twitter user who earlier found other posts that she admitted to writing
Reid said on Saturday that she accepts why people are skeptical about her story
She insisted however that she was not homophobic or hateful
Reid's Daily Beast column was suspended earlier this week while the posts were investigated
She is factually right on one of her earlier posts. Many men do cringe and can have violent reactions when exposed to male gay porn, some gag or even vomit. Some aren't bothered but many cringe even at the imagination. It's a natural bodily reaction and not a conscious decision.
