Opening Tuesday’s NBC Today, co-hosts Matt Lauer and Savannah Guthrie assured their liberal viewers that with President Trump back from his overseas trip they were going to guarantee that the Russia investigation was the top headline. Guthrie welcomed the audience by announcing: “The President’s back from his overseas trip, but some of these same headlines persisting.”
Lauer followed up: “That’s right, we’re back to the same story lines in Washington as people kind of get – shake off the holiday weekend.” Guthrie chimed back in: “Absolutely. There’s some new overnight developments to tell you about regarding this Russia investigation and the reports that Jared Kushner, the President’s son-in-law, tried to establish a secret back channel with Moscow before the Inauguration.”
