How about it, Democrats: Feel like showing some guts while professionally wounding a very deserving target?
Do you suppose Republican water-carrier Chuck Todd ever doubted he'd be allowed to spew pessimistic reports from our 2016 Convention? Did he ever think he might jeopardize his laughable reputation for even-handedness with that public trashing he gave Alison Grimes (you know, the one that became part of a McConnell campaign ad), or that execrable new book of his about Obama (you know, the one that predictably takes it easy on do-nothing Republicans)?
I say the Convention should welcome the MSNBC contingent with open arms---with one glaring exception. I'd as soon have Sean Hannity in attendance as I would Todd; at least Hannity doesn't hide his political prejudices behind a false veneer of fair journalistic practices.
Anybody else fed up with how things are going, and tired of acting like an impotent national punching bag about it? I say Chucky Todd has earned a 2016 lock-out. What say you?

I think that's an iffy proposition. NBC can make more money off of a Dyson vacuum infomercial. No one watches that show--it sucks.

(5,455 posts)and how the Democratic Party retaliates against any reporter they don't agree with.
While I haven't finished reading all DU yet, your OP is currently at the top of the list of stupidest idea of the day.
The media generally sticks together and would have a field day going after the Democratic Party during the convention. I certainly wouldn't expect too many reporters filing favorable stories.
