Meet the Press has booked a shameless conspiracy theorist, Senator Ron Johnson, for Sunday. Johnson says covid is fake and denied Biden won the election. He is MTP's most-booked Republican and has used the platform to spread lies more than any other senator. It is a true feat.
Johnson staged a conspiracy Senate panel of covid vaccine skeptics, anti-maskers, and fake drug promoters just weeks ago. He is avidly pro-covid in addition to spreading Hunter Biden conspiracies and saying Biden stole the election with "voter fraud" https://www.nytimes.com/2020/12/07/us/politics/ron-johnson-coronavirus.html
Every mainstream news outlet, not just @MeetThePress, books conspiracy theorists because they believe Republicans deserve a platform to spread their misinformation. This is not journalism and @chucktodd does not care one wink about it
Ron Johnson lied about Hunter Biden having child pornography on his computer

Ron Johnson is a guest on Meet the Press on Sunday because @chucktodd does nothing to stop the spread of misinformation https://twitter.com/atrupar/status/1317849887438966784
This intentional and habitual liar, who has been repeatedly proven as a liar with the sole purpose of spreading misinformation to the public, will be on Meet the fucking Press on Sunday https://twitter.com/MaddowBlog/status/1198069435208208386
Why would you invite this shameless liar on your news show if you're a journalist and believe in reporting the truth https://twitter.com/mkraju/status/1208761111975251973
There are 8 million examples of this. Ron Johnson is not some mystery. He is a liar who uses the legitimate platforms of the mainstream news media to spread Newsmax/OANN conspiracy theories. Booking these misinformation spreaders is the same as spreading the misinformation
