I just realized why I hate Chuck Todd and people like him

[GusFring]

He views this all as a game. Never takes a stand.

[ananda]

1. And it's a very well paid, lucrative game for him..

.. and other media personalities as well.

What people will do for money . . . .

[lunatica]

2. Oh but he does take a stand

He sides with the Republicans but he likes the pitched battle and division. Yeah, it's all a game to him but he's also thin skinned when someone points out his bias. I remember him claiming his job is very important because he forms public opinions on the issues. Without him being in his high and mighty privileged spot we wouldn't be able to understand stuff. He has to tell us what to think.

3. that ad where he drives up to the White House is such a hoot!

He does think an awful lot of himself, doesn't he?

[Iggy]

5. Todd and

the rest of the hacks like him are _perfect_ for what passes as "journalism" these days.

He's thin skinned just like the majority of the politicians he covers.

4. I thought

it was becouse he's a douchebag!

6. he's not supposed to take a stand. eom

7. The Beltway Mindset...

This is all a game...a bloodsport to them. Egos reign supreme and the corporate stenographers like Chuckie are tools of that inbred society. He's more interested in being a "player"...getting that big "scoop" or showing how "smart" he is. It's all horseshit smothered in "conventional wisdom" as he regularly shows not only how shallow his knowledge of events and history is but his own right wing leanings that have become real obvious this election year. He's hoping for a horse race as it means he gets more face time and gets the invites to all the big drinkie drinkie parties.

8. I think Chuck would smooch one the Clydesdales couldn't pull.

I watch him long enough to push the channel button. NBC and MSNBC are almost as bad as FOX in the daytime. From Mourning Joe and the Toady show, until about 3:00pm EDT, I totally tune them out. Republican ass kissers like Toady Todd would make the founding fathers hurl.

9. It's all a game to the chattering class. A very well paying game.

10. Chuck Tood = Petyr Baelish

[Volaris]

11. Baelish has more integrity than Chuck...

because at least Baelish will ADMIT to being a whoremonger...
