ATTN DU does anybody have anything they would like to say to Chuck Todd?

I don't know why but Chuck Todd .... or somebody working for him ... answers my emails
and when I sent him this story;

Chuck Todd Defends Not Challenging Republican Lies On Meet The Press

http://www.democraticunderground.com/10026013652

he answered back and told me he was being taken out of context.

Feel free to say what you think but please keep it clean and I will be happy
to foward your "good words" onto Mr. Todd.

2. How does it feel to know that Jon Stewart, a comedian, has better journalistic ethics than you do?

3. They all got it backwards. Everyone should be tough on them and stick together on it.

Then it would be FOX "News" alone that would be safe for republicans. Of course Chucky Tard would have to want to and that probably won't happen.

6. I would ask him to review shows with Tim Russert on MTP.

His style was very clear.

When he got a bullshit answer, he would ask it again. When the same bullshit was thrown at him again he would rephrase and ask for a third time. After that he would move on no matter what the answer was.

Chuckie would do well to try to adopt this style. Being another David Gregory just isn't working out.

That requires KNOWING what the truth is, though.

That's another matter.

You'll have a lot more credibility in his old gig than you currently do.
