Why doesn't Rachel have Chuck Todd on to explain the media message he pushes
and she has proven isn't valid.


I would enjoy watching that debate


He does pretty much every other show on MSNBC. Is he afraid of her?

1. Yep
That hack won't even mention her findings. Why should facts get in the way of Fuckie Chuckie's propaganda BS.

2. How can NBC justify that mega-salary of his after she's done making
a complete and utter fool out of him?

7. yeah....those asswipes are carrying on with the wingnut meme about Conway being a bad guy, and it
hurting him.

wonder if he'll talk about an elected senator getting WAY down in the gutter, slandering a colleague

hmmmmm

12. I think MSNBC has inner "conflicts"
They probably have "firewalls" set up to keep some of their "talent" away from each other.

After Rachel hit the beady-eyed bastard with the dead aide stuff ON AIR, she was more or less banished forever.. Notice how they NEVER invite anyone but Chuckie , Lawrence and a few of the attractive gal-pals.

Keith has NO use for Pal Joey or most of the others as well..

14. JS also takes potshots at both KO & Rachel periodically
although he does not mention them by name. Mika has participated and neither of them like KO.

13. Her program tonight was a nonsensical whine
At 9.5% unemployment, the party out of power doesn't need a coherent message.

I was clicking back and forth between the ugly Titans/Jaguars game and Rachel's even more pathetic scrambles. Tennessee was winning big. But not every play among more than 100 was going their way. No different in politics. The totality wins, particularly when it's a cycle with an obvious and substantial tilt. The little details are mostly irrelevant.

Rachel always demonstrates a ridiculous lack of comprehension approaching an election. She thought Obama was in trouble late in the '08 cycle. Now she expects the media to ignore the bottom line. The horse race is always the foremost angle and right now the GOP is more than a 45 length (seat) favorite in the House. That's simply reality.

If Obama is a substantial favorite two years from today, that will be the media preoccupation. Funny how this stuff works.

15. Chuck Todd is a joke
He's just another corporate stenographer for the GE corporation. He has never once in his life broken a story, conducting actual journalism, or has spoken truth to power. People in power, whether in large corporations or on Capitol Hill, tell him exactly what to say, and then he goes on TV and says it. He also appears to be very conservative. It's tough to hide.
