@ComfortablySmug certainly isn’t the first guy to notice the media’s screwy priorities when it comes to determining which stories are deserving of their righteous outrage, but few can articulate the problem better.
Journos are angrier today at Trump for a meme he didn't even make than they are at NBC News for protecting men who raped journalists. Incredible.

Before we get into Smug’s thread, let’s set the stage. On Friday, Chuck Todd and “Meet the Press” decided that they could not “in good conscience show” footage from a Trump campaign rally in Minnesota:
WATCH: The president held a campaign rally last night and attacked Hunter Biden. We cannot in good conscience show it to you @chucktodd: "Politics ain’t beanbag, but it isn’t supposed to be this either. We all need to play a role in not rewarding this kind of politics" pic.twitter.com/ERPk4SJ0Yf

So stunning and brave of Chuck to defend Hunter Biden’s honor like that. Too bad it’s not worth a damn coming from a proud NBC employee. @ComfortablySmug has had just about enough of NBC’s moral preening, and this weekend, he let NBC News have it:

We’ll remember it. Even if NBC doesn’t want us to.
