WikiLeaks: CNBC Host Rebecca Quick Promises to ‘Defend’ Obama Appointee
Breitbart.com ^ | 12 Oct 2016 | Justin Haskins

Posted on 10/12/2016 4:58:43 PM PDT by Rockitz

Since WikiLeaks began releasing once-private messages from Hillary Clinton campaign chief John Podesta, the world has had even more access to hard evidence of the mainstream media’s support for and collusion with Democratic Party operatives and campaigns.

The latest example, reported now for the very first time (as are we can tell), shows CNBC’s Rebecca Quick — the co-host of the channel’s popular show Squawk Box and a co-moderator with John Harwood at a 2015 Republican primary debate — promising to support Sylvia Mathews Burwell, who had just been named the secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services.

Debate moderators John Harwood (L), Becky Quick (C) and Carl Quintanilla take the stage at the third Republican Presidential Debate hosted by CNBC, October 28, 2015 at the Coors Event Center at the University of Colorado in Boulder, Colorado.

Quick’s pledge came in response to an e-mail that appears to have been sent by Erskine Bowles, the former president of the University of North Carolina and the former chairperson of President Barack Obama’s National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform.

In the April 11, 2014, e-mail, Bowles wrote to Quick to praise Burwell in the wake of the negative news coverage surrounding the appointment. “I listen to some of the talk today about Sylvia’s move to HHS,” wrote Bowles. “As you may recall, I picked Sylvia and John Podesta to be my two Deputy Chiefs of Staff. I picked Sylvia not only because she is brilliant (Rhodes), really Becky Quick like nice, informed and smart, but most importantly to me she knows how to run a large organization and run it effectively. … Regardless of your politics, any American should be glad that the President picked someone so competent to head such a critically important agency.”

Perhaps, Nina Burleigh will be available to moderate the next debate.

“The first thing we do, let’s kill all the lawyers.” Dick, Henry VI, Part II, Act 4, Scene 2 (harkening back to the practice of the English rebel Wat Tyler in 1381).

“Kill all the reporters first.” vladimir998, said in numerous places online starting around 2012 (giving spleen to his discontent with the lying mainstream media).

Wikileaks is turning out to be a colonoscopy of government/media corruption.

At what point does this subject DNC, HRC, and the MSM to a civil RICO lawsuit for a criminal enterprise trying to circumvent federal election campaign “in-kind” media contributions?

Come on Judicial Watch, Trump, RNC file a RICO civil lawsuit and ask for discovery on the basis of Wikileaks data.

Even reporters can not believe that the
PRrep “journalists” were paid by the line,
which explains why they repeated each other word for word.

THEY ALL DEFENDED al QAEDA and should lose their jobs
and go to prison.

Not to be a nag - but it WOULD be helpful to dump the Wikileaks email URL, so’s we can sally forth to fight the enemy more easily. :)

Then Burwell went on to preside over the biggest screwup in history, the roll-out of Obamacare. That turkey never got off the ground and should have been shot by now. Thanks for nothing, Erkine and Becky.

More than anything else, Becky Quick is in Warren Buffett’s pants (pocket). She’s crap as a journo.

Re: "Another moderator deep in Hillary's pocket..."

Rebecca Quick is also deep in the pocket of politically Left investor Warren Buffet, for about the last 10 years.

I think Buffet had something like a schoolboy crush on her when she was younger.

I watch CNBC every morning, and whenever there is a substantive story about Buffet or his investments, Quick is always the journalist who breaks the story.

That’s kind of like being the former chairperson of Chancellor Adolf Hitler’s National Commission on the Sanctity of Human Life.

Good question and definitely worth a serious legal examination.

Her wiki page:

Her husband is Matt Quayle (no relation to Dan, AFAIK). Matt Quayle is a PRODUCER at CNBC.
