It’s about as American as Apple pie.
Sorry, pal...there is a new sheriff in town.
Todd thinks the Press is like James Bond.
He had a License to kill, they have a license to lie.
Bashing the Un-American Press is required!!
Memo to Chuck—YOU delegitimized the press.
This is liberal Dan Abrams site....
but chucky todd still got raked over the coals.
I just love to go there and troll... and, judging by the comments, I’m not the only one.
Obviously this so called journalist has NO knowledge of the history of ‘press bashing’ and the first amendment does NOT forbid criticizing the free press.
One must understand, that the concept of “America” has a vastly different meaning for some folks than it does for the rest of us. That territory once known as “the United States of America” is simply that, a territory until people with vision apply the principles embodied in the Ten Commandments, the Golden Rule, the Declaration of Independence, and the Original meanings of the words of the Constitution of the United States of America.
If the words of these documents are expunged from whatever legal and civil code that is applicable, then the territory becomes something different from what was commonly known as “American”. There is a comparable territory, blessed with vast natural resources, and the destination of many Europeans who were fleeing the oppression of the fiefdoms and kingdoms of the lands of their birth. It was known as Argentina, and the “Silver Land” held great promise. Argentina was on the way to being one of the great prosperous nations of the world in the latter part of the 19th and early part of the 20th Centuries, until they fell under the spell of “Progressive” thought. Suddenly, the achievement of the ranchers and the great breadbaskets of this land was “reformed” into denial of many of the landholders of their exercise of what was pretty much laissez-faire capitalism up to then, and much of the means of production were simply expropriated by the “reformers”. Sort of an early experiment in “National Socialism”, which would be applied with so much vigor back in Europe, and with terminally disastrous outcome. Argentina was only marginally involved in the wars that wracked most of the rest of the world, but the deposed National Socialists of Germany found a land under the control of kindred spirits when it came time to abandon their base in Europe. The history of Argentina from post-WW II onward has been one of dismal failure and widespread poverty, because of certain home-grown authoritarian figures who drained the national treasury, and a resulting even more draconian regime, which, far from correcting the earlier abuses, only built upon them.
The United States had proceeded far down the same road that Argentina has followed for the past century, when it was dragged, kicking and screaming, back from that abyss not just one, but several times between 1929 and 2006, when yet another great reversal took place and another plunder of the treasury was openly undertaken, creating fiat money out of - nothing, and laying a burden on the future on the future that may only be struggled free of by unleashing personal initiative on a massive scale once again.
Elegantly said and quite the truth of the media.
They.are.losing.
Ah. Calling liars liars is un-American.
When the press and Todd refused to cover the MANY illegal, unconstitutional and downright treasonous activities of Obama and his ilk they lost all credibility. They are whining like spoiled children and have no idea how utterly partisan they are. That “press expert” on FOX is really crying and complaining because TRUMP said they were full of hate. Give me a break!

Quote the Puck Wadd. Nevermore.
“The current state of journalism in America is “un American”.”
I’m not ready to call it un-American as politics is pretty rough and human nature is what it is.
But dishonest, unbalance reporting is not good for America. That I know.
Hey Todd! This is a two-way street. You demonize the American people with your fake news, and you will get your just deserts.
Chuck, chuck,chuck...WE ALL KNOW YOU ARE FLIPPING DEMOCRATS!!!
Signed: Not the DEMOCRATS.
“Press bashing is ‘un-American’” But Trump bashing is OK?
I don’t remember voting for Chuck Todd.
Stand up Chuck, so we can knock you down.
