''Melissa Harris-Perry'' (also abbreviated MHP) is a current affairs and political commentary television program on MSNBC hosted by American author and academic Melissa Harris-Perry. A college professor, Perry uses the show as a public platform for progressivism. The program airs in the morning on weekends. Harris-Perry had been a frequent contributor and guest host for the network until it was announced that she would host a program of her own, which debuted on February 18, 2012. She remains a professor at Wake Forest University and commutes to New York City on the weekends to host the show. ==Format== According to MSNBC, the program features panel discussions focusing on national politics while exploring the "intersections of culture, art and community". The show's two-hour running time allows for a more diverse pool of guests compared to typical cable news programs. In addition, since the show airs on weekends, Harris-Perry says it has "a little bit more breathing room" to respond to the weekly news cycle. Harris-Perry encourages viewers to interact with the show via Twitter using the #nerdland hashtag, which she uses to describe an occasional destination for its topic field and intensity of discourse.〔 The shows places a strong emphasis on pop culture in an effort to expand the idea of what is considered "political". Instead of political pundits, Harris-Perry often invites academics, activist Hollywood stars, struggling actresses, makeup ladies, and underrepresented voices as guests.〔 In addition, she often discusses politics outside the beltway, including politics of the South.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Melissa Harris-Perry (TV series)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
