Joy Reid has brought the FBI into her investigation of what she claims was a hacking of her website.

After screenshots of her old Reid Report blog went viral last week that included multiple homophobic comments, the MSNBC host claimed that the Internet Archive version of her blog had been hacked.

Posts from the mid-2000s included a top five “totally not gay celebrities” list in 2006 that included Clay Aiken and Anderson Cooper and pleas to Keith Olbermann to “defend your honor” against speculation that he was gay.

Reid’s lawyer, John H. Reichman, said the FBI has been brought into the matter.
