Chuck Todd dismissing journalist's statement on Trump shows the media complicity

[egbertowillies]

Joshua Johnson, of PBS 1A fame, appeared on Meet The Press with Chuck Todd. He is the kind of guy that should be running a show like MTP. Todd's reaction to a story he told about a man in Michigan illustrates the nature of our media.

3. Not a big Todd fan, but the laugh was appropriate, as was the guest's comments about not trusting

trump.

Everyone -- but a diehard trumpster -- understands what was being said, and Todd didn't have to tell us or take it further. Now, rather than laugh, if Todd had attacked the guest, that would be different.

4. Holy shit

Somebody went off script on MTP. He’ll never be ask back. Todd needs his safe space

And now he’s acting like that. He clearly knows what is going on, yet he does not speak the truth.

Is it his producers and corporate bosses? Really. How could someone who writes a piece like that be so compliant and bothsidesist on the air?
