Meghan McCain on MTP????

[Arkansas Granny]

That does it. I occasionally watch the show, depending on who is being interviewed. After interviewing Cory Booker, Bob Woodward and Robert Costa, Chuck Todd introduces the panel and there sits Meghan McCain.

I had to turn it off.

1. Insight ensues?

[malaise]

2. Is she planning to run for office

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

3. Is she planning to run for office

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

4. Why anyone would give that woman air time is beyond me

[CurtEastPoint]

5. TELL NBC HERE....

12. Sent! Her Mother Cindy would be a fine guest.

[PatSeg]

6. Oh for Pete's sake, seriously?

Why on earth did they think Meghan McCain was relevant for a show like Meet the Press? Unless she is planning on running for office.

7. Why do people get mad because news/talk shows have guests they don't like?

[Arkansas Granny]

8. Liking or not liking is not the point.

Meghan McCain's only accomplishment is being the daughter of John McCain. She really doesn't have much to contribute to a serious discussion on political issues.

[betsuni]

10. Doesn't matter. She's out there, she's famous. That's her job.

She will be on TV. Doesn't matter if she's an idiot or not. Listening to idiots on TV isn't anything new. It's not contagious.

[USALiberal]

16. I don't get it either, and why do they need to post it? Nt

[betsuni]

18. Posting about it only made me find it online and watch.

Of course I'm going to watch! The whole panel discussion was stupid, but how does anyone know how stupid it is unless they watch? Can't make fun of anyone unless you know what they say.

[FoxNewsSucks]

21. Some individuals don't need to be watched to know it's worthless.

For example, I almost never watch a clip of MF45. I'm quite sure I haven't missed any moments of genius. I'll bet every minute was as stupid as I would expect.

[FoxNewsSucks]

20. It's a waste of time.

That airtime could be used for a worthwhile discussion, although with Chuck Toad hosting that's probably rare anyway. Instead, it's being wasted on someone who did little on her own show but pout and whine.

[True Blue American]

9. That is when I switched to

Food Network.

[FoxNewsSucks]

22. Saturday & Sunday mornings

are the best time to watch Food Network anyway.

[aocommunalpunch]

11. It's corporate media.

What the fuck else do people expect?

[maxsolomon]

24. we expect better.

but she is all they have left for "reasonable" RW pundits.

[aocommunalpunch]

25. Why expect better from corporate news?

They bring on who suits their narrative. Bringing aid to the comfortable.

[maxsolomon]

28. i'd estimate there are about a 1000 DU posts a day

complaining about the MSM. often OPs that are just "the MSM lets us down again".

if they didn't expect better, why would they bother?

[aocommunalpunch]

30. I guess I don't expect better since their model is

to make money. Republican and conservative voices seem to offer great aid in that pursuit. Why would they care about anything else? Window dressing? Post-MF45, perhaps that's just too much trouble.

13. Chuck Todd is fully to blame, IMO. he is not merely a RW appeaser, but an enabler & PROMOTER

He is not only host, but the Political Director for NBC News-- so he makes those decisions and can't duck them, including the all-too-frequent decision to book only Republicans.

I haven't watched in several years, but of course, I see video clips. Todd should have gotten the boot long ago. He's not only frequently unwatchable, but apparently, a backstabber behind the scenes if the tale behind David Gregory's unceremonious "booting" from the show is any indication.

[Champp]

15. You said it

he's a pompous Republican bootlicker.

[marble falls]

14. Mike Todd does it worse for me. Though I might have have turned it on, just to turn McCain off ...

... she's had so many opportunities to get it right and just went RW banana crazy.

[AngryOldDem]

17. Columnist for the Daily Mail?

I thought that was the very definition of a birdcage liner. Celebrity tabloid crap.

Lawrence Spivak (Google him, kids) is up to 5,000 rpm.

[Bev54]

19. Just when you think Toddy couldn't get lower, he does.

[Hortensis]

23. :) I turn it off whenever there sits Chuck Todd.

Back in 2016 I once tried to identify and count all his dishonest RW spins and other mindfuckng tricks I could, but the fun of that didn't last out one show.

[jalan48]

26. Offspring of famous politicians become celebrities upon birth. Simple minded voters fall for the

brand.

[DFW]

27. That Chuck Todd moderates MTP at all is an insult to the show and the network

That Meghan McCain is on there at all is an insult to just about anyone I can think of except Roger Stone, Donald Trump, Mike Lindell and Marjorie Greene. Poor Larry Spivak, he would have died much younger if he had seen this.

[ZonkerHarris]

29. So then next week Chuck Todd will have a few Real Housewives on to pundit?

then Roseanne, Charo, and Carrot-Top the week after.
