Dishonest Political Hack Chuck Todd Called Out By DOJ Over Deceptive Edit Of AG Barr
May 10, 2020Some things are just a given; birds fly, fish swim, the sun rises in the east and NBC's Chuck Todd lies.
This time the host of NBC's flagship Sunday morning "news" program "Meet The Press" is being called out after airing a deceptively edited clip of Attorney General William Barr.
Todd who makes no bones about being a Democrat activist masquerading as a legitimate journalist has become like so many other party members who have ceased to even bother with telling the truth.
On Sunday morning, a CBS interview with Barr was sliced and diced by Todd and the MTP staff to distort what the nation's top law enforcement official said about the Justice Department's dropping of the ginned-up case against General Michael Flynn.
According to the excerpt which the host dishonestly took out of context while chewing the fat with The Wall Street Journal's Peggy Noonan and other panel members.
Via The transcript:
CHUCK TODD: You brought up Bill Barr. Peggy Noonan, I want you to listen to this Bill Barr answer to a question about what will history say about this. Wait until you hear this answer. Take a listen.
[BEGIN TAPE]
QUESTION: When history looks back on this decision, how do you think it will be written?
ATTORNEY GENERAL BILL BARR: Well, history's written by the winners. So it largely depends on who's writing the history.
[END TAPE]
CHUCK TODD: I was struck, Peggy, by the cynicism of the answer. It's a correct answer. But he's the attorney general. He didn't make the case that he was upholding the rule of law. He was almost admitting that, yeah, this is a political job.
Todd's shoddy journalism and blatant deception earned a swift rebuke from DOJ Director Of Communications & Public Affair Kerri Kupec who corrected the record via Twitter.
Kupec also tweeted out a link to the CBS interview between Barr and

It's been a long time since "Meet The Press" or as some sarcastically refer to it as "Press The Meat" has been even remotely unbiased which is especially the case since the unctuous snake oil salesman "Sleepy Eyes" Todd took the helm.
Tim Russert must be rolling in his grave.
