Chuck Todd Out At NBC!

Chuck Todd is leaving NBC.

President Donald J. Trump takes out another nemesis in his campaign to destroy democracy. Thanks to outgoing president Joe Biden, we have another chaotic four years of Trump.

Trump had issues with critics. He went after George Stephanopoulos and sued ABC News over the words he said to Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC). Instead of fighting it in court, ABC News just settled. 

Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk decided to capitalize on Trump after years of denouncing him and his bullshit. They ended up apologizing to him and refusing to hold him and his minions accountable for the previous term which was chaotic.

Mind you I had a better job during his term. Maybe this time around I can return to a job I prefer. Who knows?

Anyway, Chuck Todd.

The longtime NBC chief political analyst and Washington host and previous host of Sunday's Meet the Press is leaving the network, two years after his infamous demotion from MSNBC.

He was cut from the 5pm slot for Nicolle Wallace. He ended up on NBC News Now and contributed to 2024 presidential coverage. He along with Andrea Mitchell are on the outs. Mitchell will end her time with MSNBC in late January. She will still continue her role at NBC News.

Todd has told top editors and leaders from other media organizations that he plans to leave NBC when his contract is up this year, and has discussed potential roles outside the network both in broadcast and digital media.

Todd was once a key part of NBC’s broadcast offerings, hosting Meet The Press and a daily Meet The Press politics program on MSNBC and writing for its website. But while NBC announced that Todd would focus on longform projects after stepping down from Meet the Press in 2023, he has been a far less visible presence across the news network and its cable counterpart.

Todd publicly criticized NBC over its decision to hire former Republican National Committee Chair Ronna McDaniel last year. The network immediately backpedaled, but the incident led some staffers to question Todd’s future there.

Todd at least had the guts call out NBC News when it makes mistakes.

Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski found out how bad it was when they secreted went to Mar-a-Lago. They had a brief gathering with Trump and then publicly had an interview with him. Because of that, some stop watching them and even former Republican National Committee chairman Michael Steele called them out. 

Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) ran on being a progressive senator. He ended up winning over white left leaning voters. He ended up 180ing when he backed Israel, denied the campaign promises he stated, refusing to meet with progressive activists, refusing to meet with pro Palestinian protesters and his infamous meeting with Trump at Mar-a-Lago.

Fetterman is the most vulnerable Democratic senator in 2028. He is considering becoming an independent or Republican.
