MHP got a new gig!! According to CNN Money,
Two months after a public dispute and departure from MSNBC, Melissa Harris-Perry is joining Elle.com as an editor at large.
Harris-Perry will write columns, host videos and conduct interviews for the web site, beginning later this week.
Elle is the first of several new media homes for Harris-Perry.
“This gives me a chance to talk politics, but also culture, race, gender, and literally shoes,” she said in a telephone interview.
Harris-Perry won’t work full-time with Elle, but will write and appear on-camera regularly.
Her version of “Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee” is “Smart People Talking While Shoe Shopping.” The actual title of the web video interview series is “Sole Search.”
“This is me shoe shopping with women and girls of color,” she said, “sometimes for themselves, sometimes for charity, sometimes for others, sometimes with men.”
Good! I’m so happy for her! Even though I miss her dearly on Saturday and Sunday mornings on MSNBC. #nerdland
