During NBC’s Sunday’s Meet the Press Senator Tom Cotton absolutely embarrassed Chuck Todd over his obsession with anonymous sources.
Transcript From NewsBusters:
CHUCK TODD: And finally, I want to ask you about the Darrell Issa being open to a special prosecutor. What point is it in the best interest of the country to sort of take it away from elected partisans at this point? Whether it’s a commission– I know a select commission, outside commission or a special prosecutor. Where are you in that?
COTTON: Well, I think that’s way, way getting ahead of ourselves here, Chuck. There are no allegations of any crime occurring. There’s not even indication that there’s criminal investigations under way by the FBI as opposed to counter intelligence investigations, which the FBI conducts all the time as our main counter-intelligence bureau. If we get down that road that’s a decision that Attorney General Sessions can make at the time. But I think that’s—
TODD: Senators can call for it on their own. I mean, you called during your campaign against Mike prior. You called for a special prosecutor for the IRS. When does– How does this Russia allegation, when does that rise to that level in your mind?
COTTON: Well, I think that’s far down the road from what our inquiry might reveal in the Intelligence Committee or what the FBI’s inquiries might reveal. That’s something that can be decided down the road, but right now there’s no credible evidence of these contacts beyond anonymous sources in the media. And I’ve got to tell you, anonymous sources can’t always be trusted.

CNN’s “anonymous sources” are imitation sources.
In other words, fake news.
CNN = Counterfeit News Network
Chuck Todd, anonymous sources say that “You are cheating on your wife with your gay lover who has aids.......”
Sen. Cotton can make some good points, when he’s not flacking for Walmart to defeat Pres. Trump’s Border Adjustment Tax on all the stuff they bring in from China.
TIME WARNER IS CNN PARENT COMPANY. SOMEONE SAID WE SHOULD IDENTIFY THESE NETWORKS PARENTS SO PEOPLE KNOW WHO TO BOYCOTT AND WRITE LETTERS TO. WHO TO GO AFTER AT SHAREHOLDERS MEETINGS.
TIME WARNER CNN.
Their anonymous sources don’t exist.It’s all lying liars spewing their lies.
Chuck’s wife, Kristian Denny Todd is currently working as a communications professional for the Democrat party.
Formerly, she served as Senior Communications Strategist to U.S. Senator Jim Webb’s 2006 victory in Virginia where she directed all earned and paid media strategy on behalf of the candidate. Webb’s victory tipped the control of the U.S. Senate back to the Democrats.
She worked five years for U.S. Representative Gary Condit whose career ended with the Chandra Levy murder scandal.
She is the co-founder, along with Jessica Vanden Berg and Steve Jarding, of Maverick Strategies and Mail, which provides direct mail and consulting services for Democratic candidates and progressive causes.
Sept. 12, 2011.... The story broken by News Busters last week involving Chuck Todd saying NBC’s pollsters were “concerned” about President Obama’s poll numbers has brought some scrutiny on the Peacock Network’s chief White House correspondent.
After radio’s Laura Ingraham questioned Todd about this issue Thursday, Fox News’s Bill O’Reilly brought her on his program Friday saying, “We did a little research on Mr. Todd...His wife makes a living working for the Democratic Party. There is a report that Chuck Todd actually worked for Senator Tom Harkin, very liberal Senator from Iowa”
NBC Meet the Press host Chuck Todd has a wife who’s active in Democratic Party strategic communications, and sometimes donates to Democrats. In 2012, Kristian Denny Todd contributed $2,500 to Sen. Tim Kaine. Todd never felt any need to disclose this during his three recent Kaine interviews on NBC (August 7, September 18, and October 23).
But Maverick Mail & Strategies, the firm Mrs. Todd founded in 2007 with fellow James Webb aides Steve Jarding and Jessica Vanden Berg, did heavy lifting for openly socialist Bernie Sanders for President this year. Open Secrets shows a bill for $1.992 million made in ten payments to Maverick from January to April. Todd has never disclosed this business relationship in 11 Sanders interviews this year. (If the work began in 2015 before the payments, Todd failed to disclose any tie in six Sanders interviews in the second half of 2015). We didn't even count any Todd interviews with Sanders on MSNBC.

Tom Cotton is easily the best senator. His Schumer takedown was brutal, he knows issues, and as we can see can handle the press. I like Pence, but I kinda wish Cotton was VP.
It amazes me that people as stupid as Chuck Todd can be paid so much money to embarrass their networks.
The Toxic Perkster & the Greek Stooge both made $7500 an hour.
CNN has two very valuable employees. The first employee's name is "trusted anonymous source" and the second employees name is "I just make this sh-t up. "I make this sh-t up" tells "trusted anonymous source" and Chuck Todd then tells us "trusted anonymous source, said what "makes this sh-t up" told him.
How bout the cries from the msenemedia for “Special Prosecutor” for hilLIAR and cronies email scandal, bill clinton’s interferenece as well as loretta’s too?
Where were you then, Issa? Or yeah, you were flooding me with emails to support your near-loss in Nov.
BTW, I will be supporting your primary opponents from now on. You go on PedoMaher’s POS “show” . . .you must like pizza too
I don’t think Chuckie Boy is intelligent enough to understand he just got pwned.
When my dog sees that face she gets that “I need to sniff that dog’s butt look on her”!
