He hasn't been good for politics.

Chuck Todd said something truthful and insightful. Must be some confused, cold people in hell right now.

Advocacy "journalism?" Please. He's taken MONEY to indulge in "Infotainment."

He is PART OF THE PROBLEM. Ya wanna be a film star, Chuckie? Go to Hollywood!

He came up through the internet, before people started getting a bit picky about what was quality and what was dreck.

for it but it should be pointed out that Rachel Maddow and Morley Safer and a long list of others have done the same gig on that show. Matthews, Crowley, Hannity, Matt Bai who is not even on TV for a living....long, long list of people.

my local npr station promo'd him as the next guest in a up coming on air broadcast of City Arts & Lectures (I think) in San Francisco. scratching my head, why him? he must be selling a book or the corporate nedia (NBC) feels the need to do a PR blitz to improve their image and ratings.

In the radio promo, he was referred to as an award winning, respected journalist blah blah blah.

I almost puked. I could not believe my ears when Linda Hunt chirped the words with the level of honorable reverence usually reserved for intellects, artists and the like. just disgusting.

I'm thinking NBC must be paying quite a sum for this PR, otherwise just doesn't make sense.

Todd makes very little sense when he is speaking, as in this quote from the article. " Of course, the right says we’re never, so it’s a shame." He cannot even speak in complete sentences. Most of what he does is suck up to powerful people. That goes a long way in the corporate world where quality and real work are never rewarded. Being a sycophant like Todd is rewarded.

It looks like Todd is signaling that Maddow and Hayes had better start looking for jobs. MSNBC will be completely useless once they get rid of Hayes and Maddow. I like Ed Schultz and Rev Al, but they seem to be on shorter and shorter leashes every day.

It is pretty obvious MSNBC has taken a distinct rightward tilt recently. Todd will say and do whatever it takes to keep taking all that easy money. The loss of Joy Reid's show was very bad. They keep Mrs. Greenspan and the idiotic Cycle ninnies, but get rid of Reid. The suits are not interested in quality.

he's just a tool..but he doesn't even realize it.

who use false equivalence and don't call out politicians as often as they should for lying, hate-mongering, etc. (in the name of so-called "objective" journalism) are even more unhealthy for politics.

This guy is truly unbelievable.
