The ridiculous NBC Chuck Todd -vs- Reince Peibus interview is beyond absurd.
The entire premise for Chuck Todd’s position is two media reports.  One of those media reports (NYT) is demonstrably false; the second (WaPo) is specifically constructed to target and undermine the Trump presidency.  The Washington Post was previously cited, on the record, with their own statements, claiming their intention and motivation to oppose the Donald Trump candidacy.
Incoming White House Chief-of-Staff Reince Priebus pushes back against reports from both publications based on his personal knowledge one is false; and no indication the second is anything other than false.
Chuck Todd intentionally avoids recognizing his position is built upon two media constructs;  instead he demands answers about the underlying false premise, two media reports that are built entirely upon make-believe.  Watch:
