NBC anchor Chuck Todd apologized for spreading disinformation about Attorney General William Barr, claiming he had not watched a full interview with the official from which he took a brief, edited clip to try to make a point.
Todd’s “Meet the Press” show included a clip of Barr’s recent interview with CBS. It showed Barr saying that “history’s written by the winners” after being asked how history would view the Department of Justice moving to dismiss the case against former national security adviser Michael Flynn.
