<p>NBC news correspondent Chuck Todd has slammed his own network for hiring former RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel as a political contributor while ignoring his own long-time anti-Trump left-wing leanings.</p>



<p>Todd, the former host of Meet the Press, who is now billed as NBC’s Chief Political Analyst, said in a tirade to his bosses about McDaniel’s hiring, &#8220;The issue isn’t about ideology, it&#8217;s about basic truth,&#8221; Todd claimed.</p>



<p>&#8220;Those trying to make this a left-right issue are being intentionally dishonest,&#8221; he charged. &#8220;This is about whether honest journalists are supposed to lend their credibility to someone who intentionally tried to ruin ours.&#8221;</p>



<p>The problem with Todd&#8217;s stance is obviously he has not looked in the mirror lately.</p>



<p>For decades, there has been a revolving door between the media, government, and politics. The transition from campaign worker or White House staffer to paid media talking head is a &#8220;well-grooved template,&#8221; Politico ;explained. It has been happening for decades, and both Republicans and Democrats are guilty of it.</p>



<p>And yet, Todd only stands on his soapbox of principles to lecture us about &#8220;credibility&#8221; and the &#8220;basic truth&#8221; when a pro-Donald Trump Republican becomes his colleague. Meanwhile, it&#8217;s just a typical day in the Acela Corridor when a Democrat jumps ship directly from the White House to NBC News.</p>



<p>Anyone with eyes to see and ears to hear knows the outrage ;<em>is</em> ;about ideology — McDaniel&#8217;s versus the corporate media&#8217;s — and that&#8217;s why no one believes Todd&#8217;s faux outrage, for example:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>&#8220;Absolutely amazing that Chuck Todd really believes NBC and MSDNC have journalistic credibility and ethics — when polls show Americans overwhelmingly hate and distrust them — and Democrats now view Chuck Todd and this sh***y network as some beacon of journalistic integrity,&#8221; journalist Glenn Greenwald ;said.</li>



<li>&#8220;Given what you guys did with the Trump-Russia collusion nonsense and COVID, maybe your credibility deserves to be damaged. And you guys have perma-liar Jen Psaki and Simone Sanders, and whatever Obama press secretaries you had in the past. They spun and lied every damn day, but you didn&#8217;t mind hiring them, right?&#8221; radio host Ross Kaminsky said.</li>



<li>&#8220;Chuck Todd has pushed the Russia collusion hoax for years. He has NEGATIVE credibility. This is hilarious,&#8221; commentator Mollie Hemingway ;said.</li>
</ul>



<p>However, Todd’s seeming outage must have struck a chord with the equally hypocritical execs at NBC, who just reversed course and said they have decided to cut ties with the former RNC chair.</p>



<p>&#8220;There is no doubt that the last several days have been difficult for the News Group. After listening to the legitimate concerns of many of you, I have decided that Ronna McDaniel will not be an NBC News contributor,&#8221; NBCUniversal Group Chairman Cesar Conde said in an email to staff members on Tuesday, March 26.</p>
