"Matt Lauers Pathetic Interview of Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump Is the Scariest Thing Ive Seen in This Campaign"
I had not taken seriously the possibility that Donald Trump could win the presidency until I saw Matt Lauer host an hour-long interview with the two major party candidates. Lauers performance was not merely a failure, it was horrifying and shocking. The shock, for me, was the realization that most Americans inhabit a very different news environment than professional journalists. I not only consume a lot of news, since its my job, I also tend to focus on elite print news sources. Most voters, and all the more so undecided voters, subsist on a news diet supplied by the likes of Matt Lauer. And the reality transmitted to them from Lauer matches the reality of the polls, which is a world in which Clinton and Trump are equivalently flawed.

Chait's writing skills are pathetic.
It shows you what scum Powell is. Careerist back stabber and race carder.
Oh the Queen of lies had her safe space touched! Quick MSM bring out your shills to protect her!
“— Lauer did go after Hillary on her emails and he didn’t do it in such a way to provide cover for her ... —
That was planned, Hillary knew it was coming. The issue has been dogging her campaign, and the only way the press can “burn it out” is to fan the flames.”
Take care of it now & tomorrow it will be old news. “We covered that before.”
I just finished listening to the NBC Lauer interview with Clinton and Trump.
Lauer is a Douche as we all know. However I dont think he did a bad job.
Trump did fine.
Go Trump
IOW, a full-fledged member of the MSM who doesn't venture past the NY Times, the WaPo, the LA Times, and maybe Slate and Salon. He's in for a shock.
just another staged scripted photo op
To paraphrase Pelosi: "The email has probably been doctored."
Lauer: ‘I’m still getting my secret payroll check from Team Clinton/Foundation, though. Right?’
I find it amusing how this guy hates Putin because he does the very same thing the Clintons have done for years; kill their opponents.
lol...yep Trump crushed it. This lefty is blaming Lauer who was SO in the tank for Clinton that it was obvious.
:) he could then chock himself needing no help whatsoever.
ignorant, bigoted, pathologically dishonest authoritarian ... is an accurate description of Hillary!

Exactly. That extremely accurate juxtaposition is what makes the article so funny.
The entire event was a waste of time. Lauer asked non-specific questions to which both Hillary and Trump gave non-specific answers. “Are you happy with your eye color? What do you think makes you great?” What a waste of time.
DumpsterUnderground is barbequing Lauer because Trump won the debate (http://www.democraticunderground.com/10028151535). It’s to laugh.
I missed the Shrillary Clinton part, I did see the Trump part and thought Lauer took some hard swipes at Trump and that Trump politely, professionally and in a Presidential manner turned those swipes around effectively and got his message out.
In short, Trump did a great job, IMO. He helped himself last night.
