President-elect Donald Trump on Sunday blasted NBC's "Meet The Press" for not airing a full interview with one of his top advisers.

"Kellyanne Conway went to @MeetThePress this morning for an interview with @chucktodd," the president-elect tweeted.

"Dishonest media cut out 9 of her 10 minutes. Terrible!"

They should also independently record all MSM interviews in their entirety to protect against any dishonest MSM editing.

If MSM decides to air edited interviews to make Trump or his folks look bad, they can then post their own recording of the entire MSM interview to expose the MSM for their dishonest reporting!!

The full interview is available. I just watched it. After a routine first few minutes, Kellianne skewered the dishonest media. She talks so fast (but very clearly) that it was hard for Chuck Todd to talk over her.

At one point, he looked three times to someone/something off to the side. I wonder if someone was holding up a sign telling him to change the topic or, perhaps, end the interview.

People on our side do need to be on these shows. We win no converts preaching to the choir. If not shown live, they at least need to be shown in their entirety.

Invite real journalists (not Dem operatives) to the White House for sit down interviews that are streamed live and kept available on the Trump web site for people to view at their leisure. Have a daily summary show produced by Kellyanne Conway with professional hosts. Let that be the only access the dishonest media gets. They can run with it, or they can do their propaganda without being in the White House or talking to the people who matter.

Didn’t upChuck used to work for a RAT Senator?

Todd worked for Democrat Initiative campaigns in Florida and the election campaign for Democrat Tom Harkin. He has never been friendly to Republican or Conservative policy or philosophy.

Hie wife is significantly Progressive and works for numerous Democrat campaigns and politicians, she was spokesperson for the campaign of Democrat Senator Jim Webb.

You mean “Why are Trump’s people”.

Not “why is”.

Unless you’re speaking jive, of course.

No surprise coming from F Chuck the dishonest wimp.

I like Trump’s Twitter account as it is almost instant push-back and feedback. :-)

NBC (as well as ABCCBSCNN...) is nothing but a collection of fifth-column media leftist political whores. They steal oxygen and exhale lies and antiChristian, hate propaganda.

I lost all respect for Russert after watching him interview Clinton when she was running for the Senate. All softball questions. Up to that point, he had me fooled into thinking that he was an honest political commentator.

Bye Bye, NBC

BS response. What Trump is doing is brilliant. He is taking the fight to the dishonest media and calling them out on it. We all love a real American who fights like Trump. He is only getting started.

Cut ‘em off at NBC. No interviews, no Sunday shows, no nuttin. Limit them to what they can get off of pool feeds until they come begging..on their knees.

100% CORRECT.

With the lib msm, she’s lucky they aired as much as they did.

With the Trump Admin, they'll be lucky if they ever get another interview or press release.

Probably so. It would be a joy to see the MSM scramble to comply, and these little known news sources be featured and to gain prominence.

On a bit different note:

DJT knows how to fix this economy. The Globals know how to blow it up. Expect the billionaires who financed HRC to throw as many economic grenades into DJT’s recovery actions as they can, and then pin the blame on him saying his policies don’t work.

I’d love to see DJT use these conservative young media upstarts to get the message out in front of their efforts. Because then the public will understand who is responsible and be prepared for the turbulence.

He’s got to quit sending his soldiers to get mugged by the Enemdia, and we’ve got to drop the channels those muggers are on.
