‘Fire Chuck Todd’: NBC News told anchor ‘is single-handedly ruining Meet the Press’

Published 2 hours ago on October 10, 2020

By Bob Brigham



NBC News was blasted on Saturday after announcing that a controversial right-wing radio host would appear on “Meet the Press.”

Hugh Hewitt remains a NBC News and MSNBC “contributor” after losing his weekend show on MSNBC.

Hewitt was booked after his highly criticized push to confirm Judge Amy Coney Barrett.

“Every Catholic, indeed every person of any faith, has to realize the left despises them and that the Democrats shelter this virulent bigotry and pretend it’s something else,” Hewitt argued about a party running Catholic Joe Biden for president.

MSNBC really needs to lose him. He contributes nothing to the discussion and is the foremost champion of "whataboutism" and "both sides do it". He is the intellectual equivalent of Hannity and deserves about as much respect. The only hope I have is that, with losing the daily MTP he is on a rapid glide path to oblivion, the sooner the better.
