WHAT just happened on MSNBC? Just as the Wisconsin Lt. Governor finished an answer during an interview with Joy Reid on #TheReidOut, the screen immediately went to black and into a commercial break

And we have an answer. Joy Reid returns from break on #TheReidOut to say that there were some technical "gremlins" and apologizes for cutting off the interview with Wisconsin's Lt. Gov.

But wait, there's more! While going to break to mock the notion (a correct one, as well) that Biden is being controlled by his far-left staff and activists, Joy brought out some haunted house-like sound effects.

It happened AGAIN. Joy Reid is thrown off the air and MSNBC had to bring in Alicia Menendez to go to break and say they "lost" her signal

Maybe fate is trying to tell Joy Reid that she needs to apologize to Muslims and she might want to stop being such a conspiracy theorist.

Joy Reid gives viewers a heads up that her shot might go down again and says Alicia Menendez is on stand by....and sure enough, she lost her shot right after this for a THIRD time this hour.

Here's Joy Reid losing her signal for the third time this hour, which means she'll conveniently escape the chance to apologize on the air to the Muslim community for saying on Monday that Trump and his "radicalized" supporters are just like Islamists. Alicia Menendez took over.

And here was Alicia Menendez left to cap off the show and go to Chris Hayes....no Joy Reid. Her "hackers" must have gotten to her!

(Sorry for the quick cut part way thru -- the MRC's MSNBC recordings changed at 8:00:01 p.m. Eastern so I had to grab the second part from All In)
