John Kerry and the State Department "Tick-Tock"

Secretary of State John Kerry faced criticism from journalist Andrea Mitchell regarding the administration's focus on North Korea. Kerry defensively claimed that North Korea has never been "unattended" and took credit for diplomatic shifts in China. He referred to a "tick-tock," or a detailed chronological schedule, to prove the intensity of his diplomatic efforts, while the hosts mock his arrogant demeanor toward the press.
