MSNBC’s Chuck Todd attempted to attack the credibility of the White House and it’s Deputy Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders over her recommendation that viewers take a look at the new Project Veritas video, claiming that because Sanders hadn’t personally verified it’s contents that she was peddling Fake News.
“We take what we do seriously, because trust, viewers, and reader’s trust is all we have – and without that, we’re nothing. We get fired for not telling the truth.”
“Of course the White House attacks – delegitimize the media to create running room for it’s version of events.”
Todd then goes on to attack Sanders for recommending that people take a look at the Project Veritas undercover video which featured a CNN Producer admitting that the Russia narrative has been pushed for ratings, and is “mostly BS.” Huckabee said “whether it’s accurate or not, I don’t know – I think if it is accurate, it is a disgrace to all of media, to all of journalism.”
This wasn’t good enough for Chuck Todd – who responded “Excuse me? You got that? I don’t know whether it’s accurate or not but go check it out because it disgraces you? Seriously? And that’s been this White House’s MO – peddle a false story to claim the media is telling false stories?
SORRY CHUCK – CNN confirmed the authenticity of their producer’s words to the Project Veritas operative, and the network said he would be able to keep his job because they value diversity. So, Chuckathan, the O’Keefe video is NOT Fake News, and Sarah Huckabee Sanders was simply stating that she hadn’t personally verified the video’s authenticity.
Bonifield didn’t know that he was being taped, according to a person familiar with the matter who was not authorized to comment publicly. The network is not disciplining Bonifield, and CNN editors are treating the comment as Bonifield’s personal thoughts expressed in a non-official capacity, the person said.
“CNN stands by our medical producer John Bonifield. Diversity of personal opinion is what makes CNN strong, we welcome it and embrace it,” CNN said in a statement. –USA Today
And Chuck, I think the Media has done an excellent job of delegitimizing itself…

Here a fag there a fag. Everywhere a fucking fag. Fake News is a bunch of queers. Fact. Married means nothing.
Chuck Re-Todd’s parents must be so embarrassed by him. If I had a son like him, I would cut off all communication and change my last name. He’s epitomizes a piece of shit.
I just realized that I insulted pieces of shit the world over so I apologize to all pieces of shit.
I hereby declare that all pieces of shit are better than Chuck Re-Todd.
Todd: “We get fired for not telling the truth.”
You also get fired for not telling a lie. Basically you get fired for not following orders. This has nothing to do with the truth. Its called insubordination.
There is no legal obligation for a news organization to be truthful. There is an FCC policy connected to broadcast privileges however.
As there is a long history of news distortion dating back to the 1940s. There is recourse to withdraw a broadcasters license under FCC policy 448.102 – which is not law, but policy, according to the courts.
In 2003 two reporters won a settlement against a Florida broadcaster for being fired (in 1997) after a long running dispute over a story that they believed was untrue. The story was never aired. They won the case, not because there was a legal obligation for the broadcaster to be truthful, but because the court accepted that the firing was connected to the said reporters threats to file a complaint with the FCC and so was adjudged retaliatory.
So where is the FCC in all this? Somebody start filing complaints already. Judicial Watch are you reading?
The permanent DC class are shitting their pants. Trump is draining the swamp, slowly. And as usual they are late to the party. For the last 30 years they thought they were the whole idea and a few of them became extremely wealthy. But they fucked up with the Russia stuff.
Why? National Security is traditionally the domain of Republicans. Who the fuck do you think will benefit from this bullshit?
DC isn’t Hollywood for ugly people anymore. Just for fucking ugly, period. Speaking of which, Chuck Todd ain’t exactly a beauty queen. How the hell did he get on TV?
This also shows the MSM is all on the same side. There is no competition among networks. If there were, this tape would a gold mine to take their competition out, to drive the other network out of business. Instead, they stick together and lie together. This also shows that MSM is in the same hands.
Chuck todd looks llike a molester.
“You also get fired for not telling a lie. Basically you get fired for not following orders.”
Yup.
