Lester is forgetting it is not his job to tell us what to think.
Lester knows exactly what his JOB is .... to be a shill for the Leftists.
JOB 1 is to instruct people on what they are supposed to believe ..... the Socialist/Leftist Agenda.
Seems to me the point Holt is attempting to make is not every issue deserves both sides to be heard for a fair evaluation to be made. Now I'm quite sure there are more than a few folks on this humble website chiming in that feel differently and if that's so, I'm anxious to hear them make a case for gun violence, racism, sexual exploitation, child abuse and a whole bunch of other matters that I and most people consider there being no other side to the argument.
I think what he's saying is that you don't have to treat two different political viewpoints as equally plausible if one is factually based and one is not.
If you at least have factually based positions and the political disagreement is simply one over differing value judgments, that's when you really have to be respectful to all viewpoints since people are always going to disagree there.
"Factually based positions," like the position that vaccinated people are still highly dangerous disease vectors who shouldn't hug their family members or travel? That kind of "factually based position?"
Does anyone under 60 still watch nightly news? Lester Holt could lead everyone night with the latest updates from "People of Wal Mart" and I don't think it would make a difference.

Most folks on this humble website are smart enough to recognise that Lester isn't talking about any of the things you mention, he is specifically making a political point. Now if you can point out a political party/movement that supports any of the things you mentioned, you may have a point.
NBC and MSNBC are owned by Biden financiers and supporters, Comcast (Commiecast). So no surprise here.
