[See NewsBusters for more.] The Media Research Center’s Tim Graham called out the hypocritical media for trashing Donald Trump’s presidential transition, reminding everyone that they had a different take for Barack Obama. Appearing on Fox Business’s Risk and Reward, the director of media analysis for the MRC mocked hyperventilating at MSNBC over Trump going to dinner and not taking along journalists: “NBC News has a transparency problem! They had an anchorman who lied about a lot of stuff. They had an internal investigation, to which we had how much transparency? None.” Graham continued, “NBC is doing reports right now showing they are outraged at fake news. This is a network that for several years employed a fake news correspondent named Chelsea Clinton. So, the idea that NBC News is going to lecture us transparency and media professionalism, I'm just not having it!”
