It is great seeing journalists use the art of journalism every so often. Good job on this one Chuck Todd.
Chuck Todd’s checkmate on Rudy Giuliani
Chuck Todd affected another journalistic feat once more. He used Rudy Giuliani’s spin and deflection as a rope to destroy Rudy’s Trump defense. The following exchange is probative.
Rudy Giuliani: What came across in WikiLeaks, and that is two people.
Chuck Todd: Okay.
Rudy Giuliani: Hillary Clinton actually specifically described that she’s two different people, to the financial people who were giving her millions of dollars, she’s on their side and she wants to be a big part of the government.
Chuck Todd: Okay.
Rudy Giuliani: But she tells them she has to pretend to everybody else that she isn’t. If that comes out when she was running–
Chuck Todd: What does that say if you believe that Hillary Clinton says one thing in private and that means what she really is is what she is in private, should we assume what Donald Trump did in that Access Hollywood bus is really what Donald Trump is like in private? I mean, that’s what you’re implying here with Hillary Clinton.
Rudy Giuliani: You know, Chuck, the reality is that in both cases, both people have things in their personal lives that maybe if they could redo it, they would do it differently.
If all our hosts did their homework and were listening to the interviewees, they would better probe them. That is the type of journalism America is in dire need of now. Do not allow the charlatans to come on TV and spin. Ask questions that get to the meat of the issues that affect Americans. Imagine an America where interviewees could not get away with silly comments like the government takeover of health care, or death panels, or death taxes.
