Granted, that is always the right move. But what caused National Review’s Jonah Goldberg to do that today? Well, this happened:
Really? Wow. RT @JonahNRO: Good lord. #MTP is going to Ezekiel Emanuel and Ezra Klein for its "reality check" segment. That's balance?
— Byron York (@ByronYork) December 1, 2013
Yes, really.

Unbelievable. Yet, of course, totally believable. Ezekiel Emanuel, an architect of Obamacare whom actor Adam Baldwin called a “lying freak.” And the always absurd and hack-tastic Ezra Klein. Balance? Well, if you want to balance lying hack with hackier lying hack.
I can't believe #MTP couldn't land Jay Carney to round out this ObamaCare "reality check" panel.

Snort!
Other viewers also called out “Meet the Press” for the epic fail.
#mtp a reality check on #aca with Ezekiel Emanuel. He has no agenda..

@JonahNRO @ByronYork just watched it. I learned that the site is fine enough and people should calm down about insurance 'disruption

Delusional RT @ByronYork: RT @JonahNRO:. #MTP is going to Ezekiel Emanuel and Ezra Klein for its "reality check" segment. That's balance?”

@DavidGregory on #MTP: "Let's get a reality check on Obamacare by talking with @EzraKlein & Ezekiel Emanuel."… SERIOUSLY!? #Fail
— Vlad Davidiuk (@VladDavidiuk) December 1, 2013
And an excellent exit point:
@ByronYork @JonahNRO A little surprised that either of you would have a reasonable expectation of "balance" from MTP – Really??

Truth. What else can you expect from lapdogs?
