That worthless dipshit Chuck Todd got roasted at the correspondence dinner by Trevor Noah and now his show has been removed from MSNBC and moved to streaming. He's so goddamn bad at his job and I have for years been saying that he was allergic to follow up questions. I should sue Trevor for theft of my comedy.

Chuck Todd is a derp.
 
Wow!

Maybe there is some justice in this world, occasionally.
 
Didn't watch him before.

That's not changing.
 
Chuck Todd doesn't understand that a journalist's loyalty is to the truth not to fairness or "both siderism". For example in a debate between a flat earther and round earhether a real journalist reports that the round earther had the truth on his side and the flat earther was woefully misinformed.

Chuck Todd is the kind of guy that would say "both sides made good points".......which is a lie.

THE truth.

You are entitled to your own opinion not your own facts.

There is no your truth and my truth, just THE truth.

The earth is round not flat. That is the truth even if you think otherwise

Good grief the right has some real problems.

No, because much of what Todd got involved in was political opinion. There is no established truth (which is why these eternal debates are just that....eternal).

You have no truth when it comes to things like abortion, the right to healthcare, forgiving college loads, etc.

Unless Todd spent a lot of time with flat earthers, your argument is a strawman.

It's an analogy not a straw man.

And when one side says the election was stolen,, and the other side (AND THE FACTS) say it was free and fair, not stolen. A good journalist does not sacrifice the truth in the name of being fair to both sides.

The truth is that it was NOT stolen, and those who say it was are either lying or misinformed. A journalist's responsibility is to the truth.

NBC should’ve canceled the show after Tim Russert passed. He was an honest, fair interviewer who treated everyone the same, regardless of party. One of a very small number of journalists respected across ideological lines.

When you can prove something, you have a fact.

If Todd is entertaining the stop the steal crowd, that is his problem.

Most left wing talk shows I've seen make up facts and argue them as truth.

Just like Sean Hannity.

I miss Tim Russert. His loyalty was to the truth. He did his homework and held those he interviewed accountable if they made claims that weren't true, regardless of which "side" they were on.

You're right, but the word fairness is the wrong word. Not supporting both-siderism is not unfair.

Journalist on issue #1: The Democrat is correct
Journalist on issue #2: The Democrat is correct
Journalist on issue #3: The Democrat is correct
Journalist on issue #4: The Democrat is correct
Journalist on issue #5: The Democrat is correct
Journalist on issue #6: The Democrat is correct

Republican conclusion: the journalist is biased!

Correct conclusion: the journalist is correct. They can't help that it's correct that the Democrat was right on all of them. The more radical/lying/wrong the right gets, the more liberal they think journalists are for disagreeing.

NBC isn't going to cancel the longest running show in TV history. Since November 6, 1947.

Do you not see the irony in debating truthfulness using made-up fantasy fiction? I hate having to get out the redundancy stick.
 
So much for Meet the Press, looks like NBC is about to make a CNN+ style mistake.
