Although she did not apologize, MSNBC’s Joy Reid acknowledged that a question she posed to a panel on her show earlier this week was not asked in an “artful way” after she faced accusations of pushing Islamophobia.

“There was a lot of conversation, particularly online, after the segment aired, some of which was frankly not in good faith,” Reid said on her show Wednesday, directing the critique at some of her detractors. “But some of the conversation reflected the genuine feelings of people who have been subjected to the kind of stereotyping that I just described. And who take matters like this to heart because of it. And we should all be sensitive to that, and I certainly should have been sensitive to that.”
