Chuck Todd, NBC's Political Director and Chief Doofus

From I Hate The Media (IHTM)

Chuck Todd, NBC’s political director and chief White House correspondent really didn’t like it when Fox News Washington managing editor Bill Sammon appeared on Fox News Sunday and said, “…the mainstream media hates the tea party movement almost as much as it hates Sarah Palin.”

From the "Morning with Joe" show on MSNBC:

Todd: We all know there are a lot of different ways people get news. And then you have straight journalists, you have activist journalists, you have opinion folks. And we know that they’re all out there. I think we believe here at NBC that people are smart enough to figure it out [yes they are and they don't believe your bullshit for five seconds]. And that’s why when a news executive goes out there and states a crazy accusation like that, that it ends up, it only ends up probably hurting what they’re trying to do, but it creates, it only denigrates all of us ["but it creates, it only denigrates"? What you said? Remember- this guy is NBC's political director and chief White House correspondent. How on earth did he get there?].
. . .
And I’m sorry, there is [are] certain news organizations out here [there] whose agenda is [are] to undermine the 90% of journalists who are just simply trying to cover stories [You know- stop picking on the good, honest, hard-working people who are just trying to do their jobs. Really? Clearly, he has the most disproportionally egotistical people confused with people who actually work for a living.]  out there. And that’s what really frustrates me about what’s happened in the media landscape. It is a business for some media organizations to undermine the quote-unquote [endquote] the [sic] mainstream media because it’s good for their business. And this is not just on the right, it’s happening on the left as well.

 I know it's obvious that he's really talking about ONE "certain news organizations [sic]"- FOX. His use of singular verbs rather plural verbs makes this painfully obvious. If he weren't a Liberal, he'd just come out and say what he actually means instead of half-heartedly feign impartiality. Rather than coming across as diplomatic or tactful, he comes across as being a cowardly rat and that's probably closer to the truth.
