This week’s Mainstream Media Scream features NBC Political Director Chuck Todd excusing the network for ignoring the highly controversial comments of Obamacare developer Jonathan Gruber that the administration took advantage of the public’s “stupidity” to pass the complicated package.
NBC Nightly News has yet to mention Gruber. Even ABC’s World News Tonight did a story last week and Jon Stewart led his Wednesday show with a lengthy eight-minute segment on it. So a comedy show beat NBC Nightly News, which still hasn’t mentioned Gruber in the days since.
