This article is a scathing indictment of Chuck Todd’s malpractice on NBC and “Meet the Press”. But if there’s only one passage you take with you, I suggest this one:
In reality [Kellyanne Conway] had made a grave announcement. The nature of the Trump government would be propagandistic. And as as Garry Kasparov observes for us, “The point of modern propaganda isn’t only to misinform or push an agenda. It is to exhaust your critical thinking, to annihilate truth.”
Unfortunately, too many people in media, including Todd, have done little or nothing to defend truth from annihilation.
