Entity Reference Relationship in Views Hides Messages from Non-Admins

Let me first preface by saying I am far from a Drupal expert and am not a programmer...

I created a message type that logs a message whenever a new node of content type A is added. I then created a view of all of these messages, and added a relationship to the entity referenced, in order to show comments of the node created that below the message to be created when the node was added. I added the comments by using Views in View Field and creating a contextual filter of the node id. Everything works perfectly up to this point.

I wanted to expand the view to include messages of a different type, so I created a second entity referenced relationship in the view, and everything works great...except that now, only admin users can see this view. I have check permissions on content types, and the view and there are no restrictions that are preventing authenticated users from seeing this view/content.

Any ideas what might be going on?
