Chuck Todd  and   Kara Swisher bashed   Facebook  and its impact on the media industry.  "I'm struggling to find the good that Facebook ever provided," Todd kicked off the conversation on Wednesday's "Meet the Press: Daily" amid the revelations from former Facebook product manager Frances Haugen. "Is Facebook recoverable and what would that look like?" Swisher argued that it was recoverable, saying "lots of stuff on the internet" that are useful and positive but that Facebook has gotten "so big and so unregulated that they're not compelled to do anything they don't want." "As you said, It's as big as an economy. It's a country," Swisher said. "With 3 billion people, they’re not monitoring it correctly. And at the very top, we have someone who is unfireable, unaccountable and really can do whatever he wants and is spectacularly unsuited to the task." "I guess that’s the thing," ...

  NBC News anchor   Chuck Todd   lost control of the second and final   Virginia   gubernatorial   debate   between Terry McAuliffe and Glenn Youngkin after a third-party candidate disrupted the political showdown from the audience.  Princess Blanding, a progressive candidate running in the Liberation Party, began shouting towards the stage roughly 15 minutes into the debate. "I am on the ballot! Why am I not on that stage?" Blanding asked. "This is not democracy!" She taunted McAuliffe, telling the Democrat, "You are not gonna win Terry." Blanding, who was accompanied by a few supporters, is heard shouting "I worked very hard to be on the ballot" during the broadcast.  Todd attempted to carry on with the debate, repeatedly telling Blanding "thank you" as she continued shouting down the moderate. Eventually, the "Meet the Press" host lost his patience.  "Alright, security," Todd called for back-up.  Shortly aft...

  NBC News political director   Chuck Todd   suggested that former   President Trump   is responsible for the media not covering the "problems" plaguing the   Democratic Party .  Appearing on "Sunday Today," Todd and host Willie Geist discussed the GOP-led election audit in Arizona which reaffirmed President Biden's victory and Trump's ongoing control over the Republican Party.  "What is he doing now? Going after Republicans not supportive of him and then chasing the last election everywhere he goes?" Geist asked. Todd chuckled at the question, which involved "trying to figure out what's in Donald Trump's head." "It’s the same thing that has driven Donald Trump for 30 years. Obsession with people either on his side or not on his side," Todd  told  Geist. "So look, this is a — he’s creating a cult of personality movement or he has created a cult of personality movement. It’s not ideologically driven. It’s just driven...

  On Sunday's "Meet the Press," Todd noted the divisions within the GOP on the subject of withdrawing troops from Afghanistan, noting that "Mitch McConnell was on one side" and "Donald Trump was on the other." "It’s pretty clear this probably would have been just as bad, if not worse, under what Trump wanted to do," Todd told the panel. "He wanted to pull everyone out by Christmas. If he had won re-election, perhaps he might have done that." Todd then asked, "Is this a big blow for the isolationist wing of the GOP" and will it "weaken Trump's hold over time?" Washington Examiner columnist Kirsten Soltis Anderson responded by predicting a "resurgence" of a kind of Reagan-style "peace through strength approach" within the Republican Party if that wing feels that enemies abroad are emboldened by the Taliban takeover of Afghanistan.  "I would expect that Republican foreign policy is going...
