Meet the Press Just Lost Don Imus

February 5, 2017 --

LPR heard Don Imus indicate, on his January 30 broadcast, that he doesn’t pay any attention NBC’s “Meet the Press,” (MTP) moderated by Chuck Todd. (Imus also indicated he is fed up with the anti-Trump slant of The New York Times.) LPR noticed that on the January 22 MTP, moderator Todd badgered Trump spokesperson Kellyanne Conway, and kept insisting that she answer his (invidious) question.

Compare to Todd, January 29, with Senator Tim Kaine who did not answer Todd’s question whether Kaine would support any part of the executive order on refugees. Todd did not press the senator to answer the question but, instead, let the senator mouth scurrilous comments, at some length, distorting the action on refugees and slandering White House advisor Steve Bannon – to the delight, LPR is highly confident, of David Brooks and members of the Old Order everywhere.
