This is just one of the reasons the media is so horrible: Chuck Todd: ‘Half the Country Is Gonna

And this article is not from MSNBC or NBC. I don't watch MSNBC anymore or Todd. What I am pointing out here is what Todd did this morning & the problem with the MSM which I think most of us can agree is not biased toward Dems. It never was. It used to be non-partisan until the republicans & right-wing with their constant attacking it now has it shifted more in their favor (my opinion). Dems need to fight more for what is right and themselves.


The press, those like Todd constantly drags down Dems like this. Where is it proven that Clinton is a crook? It is proven Trump is a racist & Trump neglected to say which should have been included, Trump is also a crook, thief & the biggest liar we have ever had as a presidential candidate.

Todd rather than point out the fact that yes, right-wing allegations against Hillary & President Clinton have existed since the 90s. He never discussed the fact that they have been proven to be baseless along with the fact that the republican's many, many Benghazi investigations were only political, not based on facts which is why they failed in all of them. Their only purpose which was admitted by republicans was to try to stop Clinton from being able to run for POTUS.

The same with the Clinton Foundation (not the same with the Trump Foundation that has proven legal violations).

So, Todd rather than do "real" & "fair" journalism took his usual easy way out & brought Hillary down to equate her with Trump.

What a jerk & fake so-called journalist.

If the DNC & Dems want us to stand up for them they also need to start fighting back way more than what they do & on crap like this. It is rediculous how the republicans have turned the as they call it the Main Stream Media into something favorable towards Dems when it actually is the opposite anymore. It never was, it used to be bi-partisan which the republicans did not like either. Dems need to be more aggressive in this kind of stuff if they expect us & we will but it is not fair to us as well when they don't go to battle for what is right.

Think We Either Elected a Crook or a Racist’

During a panel discussion on today’s Meet the Press, host Chuck Todd spoke with a couple of pollsters and came to the conclusion that regardless of what happens Tuesday night, the country is going to be extremely divided on the winner.

Bringing up the latest NBC/Wall Street Journal poll, Todd noted that responders were asked to describe both Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, and Todd expressed shock over some of the labels that were given.

Clinton voters described Trump as sexist and racist while Trump voters saw Hillary as a crook, liar and corrupt. Speaking to Fred Yang, Todd pointed out that those were only the word clouds they could air, as there were a whole bunch of “four-letter words” provided.

“My hair would be standing up if I had hair,” Yang said. “The question on Wednesday and going forward is what does the other side do and do we come together as a country. I think that’s a big X factor.”

“Half the country is gonna think we either elected a crook or a racist,” Todd sighed. “Unbelievable.”

including where I said MSNBC should be boycotted, you might know that I do not watch MSNBC.

If you again check this post, you would see it comes from Mediate not MSNBC or Meet The Press.

Also, I have already cut the cord, did that some time ago & watch Euro News, BBC, 24France, etc from Sling & other sourcesk which include network news.
