A real journalist would have been as tough on Gomer (corpse man) Obama as s/he was on Dan Quayle.

Cue crickets.

 "I think we believe here at NBC that people are smart enough to figure it out."

 You're right, Chucklehead.  They are.  That's why Fox's ratings are exploding off the chart and NBC's (and all the the other networks, for that matter) are continuing to swirl down the drain.  It really is that simple, Chuckles...

I think the rats are starting to note the waterline.

Oh, please, Chuck, just give it up.

You sound like a pathetic loser whining "They just don't like us because we are smarter than they are!!"  

Everything is someone else's fault. They're just jealous.  They can't succeed so they try to tear us down. They hate it that we're real journalists and they're not.

Whatever gets you through the night, Chuck, privately; but you really should be embarrassed to go on TV and whine like this.

What a pathetic display of self-pity.

It's funny.  Someone says the sky is blue and the liberals come out everywhere because they've been telling everyone it's grey. 

 Of course the msm is biased.  Everyone except the most partisan (actually that isn't true--the most partisan think the msm is biased to the right) know that it's true.

 There is an old saying, "Never ask a surgeon if you need an operation."  In this case you never want to ask a journalist if s/he thinks journalists are biased.

On a day where the leader of Iran threatens to take out the West, the MSM devotes precious news' minutes to an unelected private citizen's hand notes.  They are obsessed with Sarah Palin who really is not a threat to anyone while Achmedinajad ratchets up serious threats. MSM News is a joke.

The premise that "straight" journalists are heroically reporting news objectively, laboring to make sure they don't slant anything, is simple (if not deliberate) ignorance.

Except for the flagrant abuses like Mitchell or Olbermann or <name the NBC/MSNBC employee>, most reporters do not openly say insulting things about conservatives and rave about liberals. Maybe so, but the key words are "openly say." You don't have to see bias in any single reporter's words. You see it in the amount of coverage. Stories that favor the liberal agenda get broad coverage; those that don't get brief mentions, if at all. Scandals involving Democrats never mention the party; scandals involving Republicans start with the party affiliation. Stories have three times more liberals offering their "expertise," and the conservative is given a negligible soundbyte at the end. Press releases from NARAL, the DNC, the Obama campaign, etc., are passed along nearly verbatim.

Todd wants us to look at reporters and evaluate whether they're honest people. But that's a prima donna approach. Instead, look at the editors, producers, and the entire system that delivers news. Individual reporters may be saints (cough), but the whole system is as biased as can be.

• If one reporter delivers a report on a Nazi sign at a Tea Party rally, yeah, that reporter may have been relaying accurate information about a small slice of the whole picture.
• But when that small slice is the only slice shown, and the whole picture is ignored, and the embarrassing slice is shown to denigrate the whole rally ... you can't say that one reporter's "honest" report proves that the media is doing its job.

It's hubris to pretend otherwise, and Todd is simply displaying the liberal annoyance that their comfortable myth has been debunked. It's a sign that they really don't understand. They think they're the best critics of themselves, and that anyone who criticises them simply doesn't understand the media.

Yes, we do.

Don't pick on poor Chuck Todd, he's just reporting what the Whitehouse told him to report.

In my local rag this am, Richard Reeves wrote in his column that the tea party movement is " a group of angry vanishing Americans who losing their lives and their way of life". He also politely called us racist. This is another example of why the fringe media, made of arrogant elitist snobs who dont get it.

Yes we are angry at the loss of our way of life. Our greatest "faults" are what you denigrate. We are self sufficient, independent, energetic, exercise free will, believe in values and morals required to live in a complex society in order to avoid chaos. We are also proud Americans who believe in our founding fathers and the vision they saw for us. We do not want to go the way of Socialist Europe whose greatest assests are now mediocrity and stagnation. These cultures are 5000 years old. We are only 233 years old. The greatest and richest country in the world became so as a result of our founding fathers understanding the failures of these older cultures and making plans to avoid those dangers happening here.

No matter how the fringe media spins it, the tea party movement is not about demographics. It is about the political structure of our country having been infiltrated by far left self absorbed elitist snobs while the true hard working folks were busy. Well now we are aware, we have awakened. You may make fun of Sarah Palin because she is willing to sacrifice for her country. What the hell do you think our soldiers do every day? Our police offices, FBI, CIA, firefighters. Yet you make fun of ordinary Americans who are willing to do the same, yes, to preserve their way of life, A Democracy, freedom.

I dont know that Sarah Palin will be the next president. I dont have a problem, contrary to your accusation, with a black president. I have a serious disagreement with his desire and actions to destroy our democracy and turn toward socialism. Stagnation, mediocrity, lawlessness by our representatives, lack of morality, and a slow destruction of our freedoms, one at a time.This is what he sees for this country, THAT IS WHY I AM ANGRY.

It is obvious to us, we do not need Fox News to tell us, that the fringe media has been infiltrated with the elitist who are in favor of this presidents agenda. That is not what the media is supposed to do. Look at the dictatorships throughout the world. The first clue was the loss of free press, honest and objective reporting. The fringe media here in this country have become our warning. Do not look for sheep to blindly follow you.

I am an angry American, watching my country slowly vanish. I will not accept it willingly. I too am willing to make sacrifices to maintain our freedom. Oh, btw, Mr Reeves. I am a senior citizen, deny that I am racist, or gun toting. I have worked hard all my adult  life to avoid poverty and oppression that I lived as a child. The freedom and opportunities available to me to build that new life is exactly what we "angry mob" are trying to protect. If you dont get that, then move out of the way. You are the sheep and you will soon be "sheared" by the awakened masses of ordinary Americans.

You're right f chuck todd,  Americans can decide who are the advocates for zero, and who is "fair and balanced". Only those who are too ignorant to know better (read obama voters) watch the DNC cheerleaders at nbc. Say, how are those ratings going there, champ?

Yes, have some!

If the allegations weren't true,you could easily refute them, Todd-O. 

That's why they call them Teabaggers all the time, showing off their straight reporting that we all love.  As if the MSM hasn't tried to undermine Fox, funny.  

This guy is a weasel.   NBC is owner of MSNBC and the talking heads move in and out of the various programs, ie maddow appears on meet the press, etc etc
The old saying:  "the truth hurts," is never more evident than with Chuckie's limp defense today......
The MSM needs to look in the mirror, as this perpetual bludgeoning of palin IS backfiring--people are turning off the TV's----look at the dismal ratings for evening news, the late night comedy shows where they were whacking people like Palin helped plummet their ratings etc etc
As I have said:  I have lib friends, and even they believe the Palin smears have gone way way way over the edge.   Palin is a private citizen, but the media gives Pelosi 1/100th of the rips they give Palin.  And who is destroying the country?  Our ELECTED officials, that is who......

Look in the mirror, Mr Todd.

Not only is Fox trying to undermine MSM , they are trying to bankrupt you and run you off the dial. They are your competitor , moron.

It would probably be enlightening if there was a way to subtract from the ratings numbers, those people who tune into MSNBC and that ilk from a "know the other side" point-of-view or for the pure comedy of waiting for Olbermann's head to explode when he hears something that confounds his Genius.  As far as Andrea and her mocking on Morning Joe, well all I can say is Sarah was able to speak for 45 minutes with those "notes" and Andrea's clay-footed Fellow would have been able to say  "Energy, er, uh, umm, Tax Cut, er, uh, ummh, I'll Lift American Spirits!!".  I was generous and threw in the "I'll".

Fox will keep kicking your collective asses until you finally figure out that Americans aren't buying your BS anymore.  You start reporting down the middle and keep the bias to your opinion folks and you may actually see an improvement.  It's not that hard of a formula, unless, of course, advovacy is your number 1 priority.

The revolution will be fought at the ballot box

Another brilliant observation by the liberal media.

I should hope that Fox News would try to undermine the lies, exaggerations and falsehoods of the MSM!  Fox is the only news I can watch and know that I'm not getting some liberal spin doctor reporting a bunch of cr@p and intolerance.

All the alphabet networks are in Obama's back pockets.  They cannot be trusted to report anything objective.  Todd needs to get off his high horse and accept the truth that he works for a liberal network that reports news with a liberal bias and people are tired of that garbage.

...aaaannnd the problem would be?

Is Chuck Todd trying to claim that NBC does not hate Sarah Palin? 

We expect bias from NBC.  My favorite was the report by NBC of association by Phil Gram with the Arrayn Nation.  Since Mrs. Gram is of Korean decent Jesse Jackson could get support from the Arrayn Nation before someone who "mixed"  the races as did Gram. 

Hay, Todd, it's not Fox News who's "undermining" you.  It's Fox's VIEWERS who is doing that. Especially  those viewers who used to watch NBC but have switched to Fox News over the last several years.

Get this through that thick "smart enough" skull of yours: Your own previous viewers are "undermining" you. Are you too stupid to figure that out?

Get the rest of the whole NBC news organization and its affiliates, when referring to Tea Partiers, to stop replacing the word “partiers” with  “baggers”; we consider that vilest form of mocking; do you understand “mocking” Andrea?

The tea partiers, which number in the millions, think that the Liberal media – that includes you and Andrea – have been undermining this country for decades now.  If you do not understand how this is possible, listen to all of Breitbart’s Keynote Address to The First National Tea Party Convention.

NBC disgraces journalism everyday.

- Relying upon the Liberal Media for your information is like relying upon an embezzler for your portfolio management.

Chuck Todd must have forgotten what his MSNBC team member, Morning Joe's Mika Brzezinski, said last month in an interview as reported by mediaite:

MSNBC’s Mika Brzezinski was a guest on Julie Menin’s Give & Take and she had a lot to say about the opinion media — that is to say, the media who pretend they’re not the opinion media. Said Brzezinski of the media establishment: “I will say what people aren’t saying: It’s got a liberal worldview.”

Brzezinski said that though “there are great people working at the networks,” who work hard to remain objective, they are mostly Democrats — and it shows. “The balance is not there within the objective mainstream media. It’s not. It is not.”[....]

“The reason why we’ve got these extremes is a reaction to the “objective” mainstream media, that is so not objective when you have most of them being Democrats, or liberals, running it. That’s why we have Fox. Because it wasn’t honest. And because there was a reaction out there to this.”

Here is the VIDEO of that interview.
