War Based Money Con: Chuck Todd Of Meet The Press Promoted Pro-Iran War Views By Hosting A Lobbyist/Briber Without Disclosing That He Was Doing That And Helped The Guys Company's Stock Go Up!

Background/Context:
1. BREAKING: Corporate Media Is Helping The GOP With Their Lies On Iran The Way They Did With Iraq
2. Don't Let Chuck Todd Fool Ya. The GOP Really Is Very Very Bad
3. Chuck Todd: Spreading Lies By Sanitizing Right Wing Nuts Talking Points
4. Here Is Chuck Todd Skewing Viewers Perceptions With A Pro-Republican Piece Using NBC's Meet The Press

Once again, Chuck Todd betrays the people and everything journalism stands for. One again, proving he's some sort of  GOP AND Establishment shill (if you are rich and famous, Chuck Todd will betray the people for you and act like he's innocent or did it accidentally).

Media Matters: Meet the Press doesn’t disclose guest talking about Iran is Lockheed Martin board member Meet the Press doesn't note that Jeh Johnson is on the board of defense contractor Lockheed Martin

Jeh Johnson, who was secretary of homeland security under President Barack Obama, appeared on NBC’s Meet the Press to discuss President Donald Trump ordering the assassination of Iranian Gen. Qassem Soleimani. Neither Johnson nor host Chuck Todd disclosed that Johnson is a board member of defense contractor Lockheed Martin, which reportedly paid him over $300,000 in 2018 alone.

Popular Information’s Judd Legum noticed the lack of disclosure:

That seems worth disclosing to the viewer. https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/936468/000093646819000014/lockheedmartin2019proxy.htm …

Former DHS Secretary Jeh Johnson appeared on Meet The Press and asserted Trump had "ample domestic legal authority to take [Soleimani] out without an additional congressional authorization"

According to NPR investigative reporter Tom Dreisbach, Johnson was paid over $300,000 in cash and stock in 2018 alone.

In fact, according to Lockheed's proxy statement, Johnson made more than $300,000 in cash and stock awards from the company in 2018.

Lockheed Martin’s stock jumped 3.6% on Friday following the strike.
