Chuck Todd Skewers NBC News For Hiring Former RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel

Chuck Todd slammed NBC News over its decision to hire former Republican National Committee chair Ronna McDaniel as he made a surprise appearance on Sunday’s episode of “Meet the Press.”

Todd, one-time moderator for MSNBC’s interview show, joined current host Kristen Welker to address “the elephant in the room” just minutes after McDaniel made her debut on the network.

“I think our bosses owe you an apology for putting you in this situation,” he told Welker, who said her show booked McDaniel weeks before NBC announced she was coming on board as a contributor.

“Because I don’t know what to believe,” Todd went on, pointing to McDaniel’s history of “credibility issues’ given her time with the RNC.

“She is now a paid contributor by NBC News, so I have no idea whether any answer she gave to you was because she didn’t want to mess up her contract,” said Todd, who is NBC News’ Senior Political Analyst.
