NBC's David Gregory: Christie Should 'Prove He Didn't Create an Atmosphere Where This Was Okay'

A frontrunner for the award going to the most obvious media double standard of the week certainly has to be NBC reporter and Meet the Press host David Gregory.

Asking a question virtually no one in the press has asked about President Barack Obama in matters far weightier than Chris Christie's "Bridgegate," Gregory addressed the following tweet to New York Times White House Correspondent Peter Baker (HT Twitchy):


Gosh, I can think of another government chief executive to whom that question is far more relevant.

So can a lot of other tweeters who responded to Gregory's tweet (minor edits were done to certain of these tweets for clarity):

"I'll take "Questions I Don't Recall David Gregory Asking at the Start of the IRS Scandal" for $400, Alex."

"Hey, @DavidGregory, I'm looking, but I can't find the tweet where you say the burden is on Obama RE: IRS abuse. Can you link it? Thanks."

"I second the question. Ask the same question of Obama & the NSA, IRS, EPA, DOJ and on & on!"

"@davidgregory, how about proving @BarackObama did not create an environment where #IRS could TARGET conservatives w/impunity?"

"@davidgregory @peterbakernyt I'm not a Christie supporter but David, why aren't you asking the same question of Obama?"

I'd say it's because he wouldn't like the answer.

Kinda like the atmosphere the media has created where Obama knows that no tough questions will be ask no matter how outrageous or criminal his behavior.

What about Obama shutting down open air monuments and roadways with orders to “make it hurt.” Whatever Christie did was nothing compared to Obama’s shutdown tantrum. But, NO ONE in the media (including Fox) is mentioning this.

If Gregory wants to know if Christie created an atmosphere where this is OK, the answer is “No. Obama did!”

only those who've been in combat can understand the “atmosphere” in Benghazi on 9/11/12.Anyone who's been to Vegas knows what the atmosphere might have been like at that huge fundraiser Osama Obama was attending there as our ambassador was being thrown to the wolves.

The bridge story was relegated to third on tonight's Nightly News and the reporterette said there was no smoking gun in the latest document dump.

I feel the air going out of this, just as blowhards like Gregory are getting to the air...

the thing about a conservative that is perceived to have sold out, is that he’s basically all alone, especially when he finds the msm has no use for him.

I do not know if you realize this or not, but you are playing into the hand of the left.

Gosh Greg perhaps because you can’t prove a negative?

Disgust here but not surprise. After all this comes from NBC, which really ought call itself the Obama Network.
