Joy Reid Wins OutKick's 2024 Woke All-Star Challenge

Like Lia Thomas winning an NCAA swimming championship over biological female Olympians. Like the biological male disc golfer who kicked the asses of biological women to the point where the dude with a dong was banned from competition. Like some dude with a dong smashing a volleyball off some woman's face. 

Joy Reid has done the unthinkable by outwitting, outplaying, out-woking her competition – she has climbed to the mountaintop of woke. The MSNBC host is your 2024 OutKick Woke All-Star Challenge Champion.

While she didn't blowout Gregg Popovich like the experts predicted, Reid proved to be just too strong for a long list of woke competitors who couldn't hold a candle in the wind to Harvard trained journalist who has made a career out of playing the woke hits on TV after learning the ropes while working for Barack Obama's 2008 presidential campaign.

What a run it was for Joy. The selection committee clearly disrespected this woman by forcing her into a play-in round matchup against fellow TV woke Don Lemon, which many thought would be a strong play-in matchup. It turned into a bloodbath. Joy smoked Don and then destroyed Rex Chapman and Mark Jones before her Identity Politics Final Four showdown with Dan Le Batard. 

In a battle of 4-seeds, it was the dominant Reid blasting Le Batard and ultimately beating Popovich for the title. 

Thank you to all who voted, shared your opinions, disagreed with the selection committee and share a passion for the woke challenge project. We'll see you in 2025 to find another champion.
