NBC’s Chuck Todd: Media knew how ‘hated’ Hillary was in heartland and we ‘underplayed’ it

‘We didn’t tell the stories of all Americans,’ ‘Meet the Press’ host admits

 By Ken Shepherd - The Washington Times - Friday, January 27, 2017

NBC’s Chuck Todd confessed that he and others in the mainstream news media played down just how despised Hillary Clinton was in the heartland due to the fear of appearing “sexist.”

What’s more, he admitted, the mainstream media failed to “tell the stories of all Americans.”

“Where I think political correctness got in the way of what we all knew as reporters and didn’t fully deliver was how hated the Clintons were in the heartland,” the “Meet the Press” host admitted Thursday to former Bush White House press secretary Ari Fleischer in a interview for the “1947” podcast.

And this is why I applaud Donny when he attacks these worthless MSM hacks. They're all a fraud.

You're just figuring this out, Chuck??

You always 'underplay' the left's blind obeisance to leftists and their ignoring the glaring flaws they have, because you want these creeps to WIN.

It's never been a secret that almost everybody hates Hillary (because she's as hateful as people get).

The only people you fool is yourselves.
Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

Yet they still don't get it.  CNN is doing stories about the shock and angst of the poor immigrants who want to come here.  Well, life is tough.  Emigrating to America is a privilege, not a right.

 Maybe if they can't come here, they'll work up enough gumption to to overthrow the people who are oppressing them.  This nation began when a bunch of colonists threw out the most powerful nation on earth, so don't tell me it can't be done.

  • Ah, the air is so much fresher here...
So the MSM admits it caused their preferred candidate to lose because of their political correctness in dealing with Her Heinous.



The schadenfreude tastes so sweet.

Well, there's always 'TERROR'

That's what makes it so fascinating. 

NOBODY jumped up saying, "I'm Sparticus!"    First one to do so, will be found late at night, dead... naked, in a Congressional office.

Well there's that too, which just adds to the joy of knowing on how many levels she self-destructed herself.

Video doesn't lie.  She was plopped like a sack of potatoes into that black van/SUV.  She was, wave of the hand, OUT!   :laugh:

For the Party leadership NOT to step forward and say, "UH!.........WTF we got going on here?"

It's why it's not a stretch to say that the Democrat Party has been taken over by the Alinsky Socialists.   

...but I digress.

Soooo ... what other information is being withheld out of fear?  This is a startling admission and it deserves some followup.  Don't hold your breath.

What is up with Todd and Lauer.  Is the balding, gaunt, emaciated, aids look the in thing for aging liberal low-T talking heads?

@cato potatoe

Great minds think alike. I clicked on this title, read it  to my wife, and asked the same question. Scrolled down and found you asked before I did.

If you wonder why trust in the news media is at an all time low and their ratings reflect that, this is but one example. When the media decides to pick sides and is blinded by their leftist ideology, we all lose. Mr. Trump has said some things we know aren't true. But how do you trust the media, who also has a problem with the truth, to be a watchdog?
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.
