President Trump is calling for “Meet the Press” anchor Chuck Todd’s firing after the show apologized for his taking a clip of remarks made by Attorney General William Barr out of context.
“Sleepy Eyes Chuck Todd should be FIRED by ‘Concast’ (NBC) for this fraud. He knew exactly what he was doing. Public Airwaves = Fake News!” the commander-in-chief tweeted Sunday before mentioning the Twitter accounts for the Federal Communications Commission and its chairman, Ajit Pai.
In the clip, aired Sunday morning, Todd could be heard asking one of his panelists to respond to a comment from Barr when he was asked in a CBS interview last week how history would be written about his handling of the Michael Flynn case.
“Well, history is written by the winner. So it largely depends on who’s writing the history,” the attorney general said in the shortened clip.

A full transcript of the interview, however, showed that Barr did not simply make a comment about winners and losers.

The long-running Sunday morning show owned up to the error, tweeting back to Kupec, “You’re correct. Earlier today, we inadvertently and inaccurately cut short a video clip of an interview with AG Barr before offering commentary and analysis. The remaining clip included important remarks from the attorney general that we missed, and we regret the error.”
It does not appear as though Trump is accepting the apology, however. The commander-in-chief spent Monday morning retweeting numerous posts critical of Todd and NBC.
“He should be FIRED by Concast,” Trump wrote in a tweet derisively referencing NBC’s owner, Comcast. “If done by a Republican, would be ‘prosecuted.'”
