Chuck Todd ‘Set for Shock Exit From NBC’ Amid ‘Frustrations With Current Role’
TV insider ^ | 01 13 2025 | Martin Holmes

NBC News chief political analyst Chuck Todd has reportedly been “quietly” meeting with other news outlets and telling them he plans to leave his current network in 2025 amid frustrations with his current role.

According to Semafor, the former Meet the Press host has been talking to “top editors and leaders from other media organizations” and discussing “potential roles outside the network both in broadcast and digital media” as he intends to depart NBC News when his contract is up later this year.

This comes after Todd was replaced by Kristen Welker as host of Meet the Press in 2023 after serving nine years in the role. At the time, NBC News stated the change would lead to bigger projects for Todd. However, Semafor notes that Todd has been a “far less visible presence” across NBC News and MSNBC since he left Meet the Press.

Todd’s relationship with NBC has become contentious over the past year. In March 2024, he appeared on Meet the Press and called out “credibility issues” regarding the network’s hiring of former Republican National Committee Chair Ronna McDaniel.

“There’s a reason why there are a lot of journalists at NBC News uncomfortable with this, because many of our professional dealings with the RNC over the last six years have been met with gaslighting, have been met with character assassination,” he stated.

The whole network should seize to operate and broadcast. Criminally dishonest.

“In March 2024, he appeared on Meet the Press and called out “credibility issues” regarding the network’s hiring of former Republican National Committee Chair Ronna McDaniel.”

In that respect, I can’t disagree with Chuck Todd.

But for totally different reasons than his.

Chucky wins the prize for hypocrisy. After 2 decades of silence about George Steaponopolus being ABC primary political report despite his background an a Clinton staff, this is what Chucky decides is "inappropriate" that NBC was going to finally hire a Republican?

His employer is probably more “upset” than he is.

¡Adios!

His current role as the mouthpiece for a criminal, dishonest, and tyrannical deep state? Yeah, I sure hope that role has no future.

Chuck will leave as NBC isn’t offering him anything. He will get a blog cast job and we will likely never hear from him again.

Nobody is going to hire him, certainly not a broadcast or even cable network. He'll do a stream and have ten listeners.

Worse comes to worst, this clown will get a university teaching appointment at $200,000. These Democrat propagandists always have a teaching job waiting, if they need one.
