covering markups. i'm doing a story, some of which are not fun. covering the stories off of the beaten track and doing ne-on-one interviews about politico. they're about their lives, interesting, colorful stories taking place around town. >> what is politico? a website and paper started five years ago. 5 bare knuckle staff. allen, they've now grown into a very large news operation based out of rozland. politico politico and pro, a subscription site. beat is very much to over politics obsessively and comprehensively. it's a narrow beat. organizations have to cover and they have to cover gardening. ut politico is very, very

straightforward cover politics. >> you came to work in this town very okings, which is a old institution. but since then, the washington politico, ish bowl, they didn't even exist ten years ago? right.okings is but it's interesting to watch as evolutionary examiner now it was won't exist very soon. this summer they'll switch -- format.ith a new politico changing a lot since it began. media bistro. hard to remain the same. but the future of blogs is up for debate. just in the, i don't know in the seven years i've been doing it even with the job they've out there, a lot of transformation. >> what is fish bowl. there? you work >> fish bowl is out of new york. they cover the media world. have specific blogs in some of the top cities. new york, l.a., and d.c. fish bowl l.a. and fish bowl new york and cover the media fish as it were in those cities.

so a bit of it is gossip. it is ascribing personalities to a lot of the folks. they covered the news, got a wrong.right, politico obsessed with politics, fish bowl covered washington for better or worse. >> does fish bowl and media bistro make money? >> they do. i can't say i knew a ton about their business operations, but i a while i was there, they were old. i want to say jupiter media, if far lot of aken, money. they made the owner, founder dough.toby a lot of for that reason they did make money. fairly well for me as a salaried employee. saying about fish bowl site is that even

if you don't have the largest audience, fish bowl you didn't ay the largest audience in the world, but it was the right audience and it was a smart had everybody u from d.c. bureau chiefs to teds cnn to lowlydent of cover reporters. hey're a smart focussed set of readers. an advertisement point of view, they're good. >> talking about the fact that the media ou look at a lot differently than i do. how do you look at it? how do you define journalism from your perspective? it's -- you ness, know, it's a -- it's a struggling business in the sense that we've seen a lot of a lot of layouts and a lot of closing and bureaus. what's struggling about it now to figure out for the most part people kind of know what the future of journalism is. that we went through this wave of everything is free and now organizations and are starting to explore

the paid subscription models. so people are realizing that the newspapers can be given away. but the question is how do you make money off of it. so as a result, i think that survey is trying to figure out nd some people say, well, some people don't, some people go .nto it but i don't think anybody knowles how to make a lot of internet of journalism. but we're a lot better off than ten years ago. nobody had the courage to charge. seeingt was what we were people have the courage to charge and where that product is it.th >> we have a list here, all kinds of clips that we put of ther for the purpose talking about the use of television in the new media or, matter, in the old media.

gwenaifel's,p from "washington week." get you to where these things are mattering. bernheight, y beth and cbs news nia malikia henderson of "the washington post." let's start by talking about one of the stories we didn't get to on the broadcasts a $25 billion, $26 billion mortgage fraud ettlement that the white house announcered yesterday. whether that's a contributing factor and they'll look at that to hey go forward and try fix this problem. senator snow is sticking around to answer your questions for the web extra. >> hello. affairs chief global

correspondent and i'm joined by olympia snowe. thank you for joining us this morning. because we believe all politics is social at this week, we're to ask senator snow some questions submitted on facebook. comes from estion carolyn howell nugent -- "are you left the nce senate and what can we do to make sure our representatives to what we expect them to do while in office". >> the first part from pbs, the from abc. why do those organizations feel the need to extend the programs to the web? >> a couple of reasons, one, is experimenting. can we track eyeballs, can we make money off of it. it's the though, argument for why not do it is very small. ou and i went to film a 60-second add-on.

essentially cost us 60 seconds of our time, maybe a little bill. on the electricity but when you have these things set up for the programs, i think 60 seconds, extra in minutes, there's no harm it. from a toil perspective what you occasionally find is that it organization a chance to do things that they broadcast.on the so this frequency on abc this "meet the press" where they do a video extra. a lot sillier than what they do in the hour-long broadcast. that means they'll interview pat for the hour on "meet the inter but then they'll about ew george clooney the celebrity advocacy. it gives them a chance to but allows web video

them to protect the main brand. gives service to what they might have thought otherwise. >> the nbc news, talk about what you see here? >> yes. thank you for joining us on our nbc news hangout. here g wsocial media and we'll be joining up with pete williams and kerry sanders in new york. kerry, pete, welcome? you.k let's start out give us the latest news, the moral obligation and then we'll go from there. parents of the tsarnaevs, believe cts they spoke ed the bombing tajikistan.

they both say their children can't be involve in this. >> call this a hangout. google hangout. so obviously run by google. it's something that using either phone or just a camera that most people have on their tops or desk top computer. it's basically higher tech video conferencing. it as well.lored using google hangout or skype. the -- the quality is not terribly great, but it's cheap, easy. down the be walking street. street. going back to what we said earlier, it's a question of what wrestling with, am i adding, contributing? putting more noise on to the want a or -- if you

reporter on the scene with your cell phone calling in to one of hangouts, that's added value. if you're pontificating the way folks in political journalism pontificate, then the am i adding value or doing what everybody else is doing. > here's a "washington post" website thing called mt. piece theater. >> now defunct. >> yeah. take. ole new >> dennis kucinich would be in health. waxman would drink grubby lagger and senator robert bird would have the old peculiar. emmanuel would drink a bad assale. we won't tell you who's getting pitch.e of mad call it the british, russians, canadians could have

brit, bad frog, red doostral.g amber and mahmud ahmadinejad has one made serious madness. > these two guys are serious journalists. why didn't they make it? >> the comment about hillary sunk that what operation. what that illustrates is a things.f what video allows them to do them. that's good. there's season professionals of record of knowing ow to do the job and what the founders are. he web video is opening the pool of people which is great. people may not have the bound they may not have

the staff power to have somebody edit that. the could have gone up on web through no fault of anybody hat didn't get edited by anybody. just slap it on-line. problem.'s part of the web video allows a lot of can beists, many of whom ambitious and self-centered at times and it allows them to want personalities.n with that comes great risk as that video proved occasionally success story of a lot of the production quality or humor quality is not as good as you to be.ike for them >> how many kids do you have? >> two. >> how old? 3-year-old and 2-month-old daughter. >> they're not in the video yet? no, we've kept them away from youtube so far. >> what are your own habits. ho dough you use it -- do you watch any of this stuff? obsessive about consuming

news and knowing what's going on out there. diet is heavy and extensive, which i'm probably not terribly proud about. i watch a lot of this stuff. and a lot of it is not terribly compelling. certain extent, that's kind of as a washington your job to t's maybe realize a lot of this stuff is compelling. ou see everybody -- it's like throwing spaghetti on the wall for a lot of these organizations and hoping that something sticks. for the squlournlists, they, you know, they hope they can turn segue into a greater exposure when for them. >> i remember 30 something years ago we started and asked to take our cameras into newspaper editorial meetings. aghast.e why would you want to do that. and some said absolutely not. ut this is how far it's travelled and "the wall street journal" has been cooperative. here's "wall street journal" video with their top editor of the editorial page.

>> the obama administration it's sted over the weekend willing to talk directly with north korea. so is washington moving again of appeasement? editorial staying with me now. two pieces of news out of the weekend. the tentative author of direct talks and also an offer to cut on our ballistic mist sills deployment. what do you make of these developments? of all, i don't much like them. i think the timing was bad.

coming at some point where news organizations will and is this worth our time effort and money? if so, great. they'll be mia. it's not worthay our time or money. making phone calls to do web only 50 people are watching. workload issue is something

address.o reporters are overworked and underpaid. not only will they be more but the editors could be more annoyed. >> what do you get the most of?tion out >> television, if you do msnbc c-span or others, if you do "morning joe," you get a good that in terms of people e-mailing you ant things like that. more than i would to o a home video and post it on politico or something.

i think having a good story, be it web video or print article, reaction to a t story that's good. >> going to show you a clip of byers. dylan it's called "odd media". this?is where does this fit in on everything. the greatrogram about media report, a blog for us. >> this is "on media." the story with rush in the future radio for him?

the endontract is up at of this year. very since this he referred to as a slug. advertisers have been pulling back, right? either because they were spurred by a boycott effort by rush limbaugh or because they were uncomfortable with being with his brand. now, the question that nobody really knows the answer to is damage limbaugh actually did to -- >> put it in perspective. in fact, no, ing, -- grossly nd exaggerated. >> cumulus, carries the show on stations in important places like chicago, washington, the comes out on gs and said gs shows because of this issue, we took significant losses. saying, e limbaugh is listen, stop -- i'm getting tired of you blaming this on me me.criticizing

if you keep doing it, i'm going to leave. opponent care?e media reads e itself obsess i havely enough that you could justify just reporter.ia said, i don't think the average american cares about me deputy promoted to assistant editor, whatever. cares hink the public about when the press gets it right, they don't. are care about what stories being covered and not being covered.

those stories are more up, down, but also more macro. >> what's the top five list. alexander lip of trobridge. >> young reporter that's multimedia savvy. see at celebrities to the democratic convention. in five people to look for 2016. a great way to show that how and tech o's young hangout.n create a >> related to cabinet secretary ing? ago

>> no, i don't think so, no. >> all so they can manage risk and move forward. it's a matter of following the signs. they all leave here. how the world advances. decides tory clinton run, she'll have a lot on the nation. to see the glass ceiling shattered. it doesn't have to be any particular person. >> what if she doesn't run? op five democratic women to watch in 2016 who aren't. the secretary of health and former rvices is the two-term governor of the very red state of kansas and the daughter of swing state ohio. she was vetted to be barack obama's running mate in 2008. the des moines register rounded up the wish list for 2016.

that's our lilles of the top ive democratic women to watch in 2016 who aren't hillary clinton. >> we cut it short because it's longer than that. we could not get rid of that ad which was an interesting thing that you find both places where of it, you can't tell us the philosophy. >> that's called -- it's called and it'sn the business an ad that you sell to advertisers saying on original run this before the ad. it is about web video. users hate them. can't stand them. a number of people will walk away from it. how it comes to web video, else do you make money on it. hat's your version of advertising. dropoff re's not a big on them. but every website from youtube has that stuff.

brags on statistic blog. >> a 60-second ad. they skip a blog for five seconds. great thing for them. go to another browser tab and do something. so i'm hearing the whole 60 econds in my head not knowing that i can skip it. but, no, that's sort of a nice feature they've been able to pull off. "the new york times" on their website doing a lot of video and something an opt dock which is something that i assume is the opposite -- the op-ed page. on 's something we found

"the new york times" site. >> we need to talk about drugs. whole eed to repeal the war on drugs. this has to change this has to change ♪ prohibition and work prohibition on drugs doesn't work ♪ spent over $400 million. it's a waste of money. >> 60,000 arrested, 82% are hispanic. these arrests stigmatize, making it harder to find a job, making it harder to get into schools, making it to turn their lives around and it must end -- and it must end now. drugs ar on

while well intentioned ♪s been failing give them a treatment on the street ♪ and wonder why they don't get better crimes commit together ♪ ♪ but that's part of the addiction ♪ drugs is a failure ♪ >> what do you think? video, others' video. there's a lot of interchange networks.rent not like it used to be. what do you think of this development? well, i think technically they can get away under the satire use. >> and fair use. >> fair use, yeah. that line has been exploited and pushed back. a great example of -- first of all, people have a ton of free time on their hands.

to what they've been able o is find a sweet spot of original content, original proetz that's going to get lots of views and make them money. the reality is the nature of the web is contrary so i could that the but i think gregory brothers schtick is can't keep -- they on doing that exact thing forever because people are used to it and doing the next best thing. for a moment in time, they've been able to capture, i mean, millions of viewers on a -- a lot of the their hits butof the reality is the number of sweetpeople can find that spot is pretty small. it's helpful to do it in politics and news media. it's prepressed because if you do something on chris christie. something on c-span, c-span is going to cover it. poke fun at themselves or draw to themselves.

free publicity with a project you're dealing with people. trinity ou were at college in connecticut, what did you think you would be doing with your life? >> that's a question. i wrote -- i did a lot of fiction, a bit of nonfiction. i would always be writing and then as soon as i -- of the college, you quickly realize there are no jobs for writing really. accessible ones for college graduates. i had experience working with kids teaching in college. got an iting clips and entree to washington, d.c. >> how long did you teach? th english and -- one for three years

year longer. exhausting.ear was i try to tell people trying to reporter that you need credibility. a one is going to publish op-ed by you saying i'm bryan citizen. i have to say i'm a history teacher. cared about my thoughts about current events because i quote/unquote credibility. so i was able to build up a ortfolio to bring down to a prestigious place like d.c. and say here's some clips that i had. that regard, it worked out nicely. >> whey did you come to the brookings institute? there?ew you >> i knew i wanted to get into political journalism. are twoybody said there approaches. one is b go out to chattanooga work for a local small paper with a great editor, get your and bring xperience

that to d.c. and say, you know, here i am. the other argument was just come to dc and make it happen. i was more compelled to come to dc and make it happen. even though brookings wasn't a political journalism job. journalism there in terms of going to brookings evens and over them like a reporter covered them. -- it's hard to break into journalism. it's doable. >> you're sending messages to people listening. brookings is known to be liberal. >> yeah. >> examiner is known to be conservative. >> yeah. >> politico, i don't know what is on it.e are you? >> to be honest, i know every this, i'm as to say

fair fairly nonpartisan in the sense dc -- there are a couple of issues which i won't alert the american public to black and white. it , no, this is the way should be. i don't get bull riding. that's my argument for bias. most things are black and white. being at brookings is a great education on this. even if you disagree with one you don't think they're mean spirited or fundamentally wrong, it's just people operating on two different viewpoints. so maybe it was my time in dc, but i'm less certain than

before. that guy has a great point or great point.s a issues in my personal life i think is black and white. very valid points. it very at differently. >> you don't know that politico is a part of channel 7, channel owned by local the all britton family and you do the ard copy, website, and television and here you are interviewing a familiar face on television. >> i'm joined by donald new eld, the author of the book, "rumsfeld rules," former everything. job except is every for the presidency. >> lived a long time. >> yeah. first came to washington in 1957 out of the farm. his, is a >> yeah. key bridge.

it's rural. >> called in reporters now a days. 380, right, ere, rules? >> one of which is if you have ten., never have more than >> you took my punch line and i appreciate you violating one of your rules which is you never in trouble the things that you don't say. ut you're still honoring us by talking to the press anyway. >> well, thank you. >> the other rule is, of course, never. ay >> that is -- >> because all general inflations are wrong. even this one. >> when you know when he was defense, he would no more come to that studio. >> he's got a book to sell now. that he ou surprised would come? >> to his credit, he's one of politicians or politico's press averse. when he was at the pentagon, he took on the press conferences took on a lot of questions. in the last book tour, he went show," no easy

thing for a gentleman like rumsfeld. and anthony," a lewd radio show, "the view." on e's not adverse to going to outlets that everybody knows won't agree with them. >> how many cameras are there were?you aened how many people were working on that? >> i think that one is that we a three camera shot, which is big for us. a great example it can do.o and what in the sense that it takes a little more manpower. there, we had probably two cameramen, maybe out of a hotographer taking pictures that we then used for the website. operation.mall nice about that -- why not do this? take the web video. put it on the web. that, that's great. text can be a web

article. we can put some of that. the some of that on newspaper. the paper obligation gets in front of more people. plants u have a lot of with those, nice exposure when for myself. rumsfeld.ure for mr. it sort of brands our headquarters as a destination come.he people to they have to do places like c-span as well. so who knows if this is ever a ton of money. but you're able to plot a lot about that strategy. going to part from the establishment using television to a group that a lot of people know about.l a lot of people will not. wars.com. m info >> it's tuesday, may 7, 201. jones.x get ready for another original nightly f "info wars" news, straight ahead.

tonight. danger, google tells internet users that the drudge report and infowars.com websites contain malicious software. so.on't think plus, more information has emerged about google's relationship with the government spook agencies. as they group calls for hearings ties to the cia and nsa. and the professor griff says obama is a mass media deception. wars' exclusive interview premieres tonight on "infowars" nightly news. >> thank you for joining us. ll of the subscribers and viewers that make "info wars" as we fight the globalist plan to construct a the ashes of on our once free republic and world. thank you for joining us. alex jones, to you

listen to him? it's just lt to him, not on my daily diet of things to check out. but he's a great success story great example of how you're able to use, you know, to p accessible technology get yourself and get your message out there. looks close. looks like "nbc nightly news." >> one of the first clips, i was cams at the time were cutting edge. them lot of people use before. they're grainy, not so nice if you look at the clips. ow the same amount of money, you can get an hd picture. people like mr. jones can from that in a basement or a farmhouse or an actual into professional

grade television. p.j.-tv.s >> pajama's media, i believe, un by a conservative blogger, glen reynolds. >> this is somebody named rachael. let's watch it. >> they're the ones always keeping people angry about the past, falsely accusing republicans of what the democrats have done. they're going put y'all back in chains. > the guilty past and punish republicans for the past they're not guilty of, all part of characteristics of covering up slavery for fighting evil to lavery benghazi. wmds, n syria can hide and just like charles ramsey was able to stumble over and truth about his nasty neighbor, the truth will be uncovered with the failure of obama administration in benghazi. >> you got some big testicles to pull this off, bro.

reaction? >> websites are not known for humorists. lot of i don't know if he's going for humor. he's going for a colorful personality. we tried it at politico. the comedy world has seen this as well. with youtube, you can just vote a video of yourself. a comedian. i think in politics to produce show type of political humor or parody or sarcasm. occasionally you see it. but, again, it comes down to the idea that when you give camera, not everybody is camera quality. that gentleman is good in front camera. but the next generation of jon the five on fox news,

i don't know -- sometimes the gooder to entry could be a thing in terms of separating the nontalented. he >> what about the old timers bad, the video of the nonjournalists getting into it. >> there's a case for that. sure. there are a lot of people given forum who in journalism and not in journalism who don't depp serve it. t the same time, a lot of people in media who rose to a certain rank who may not have deserved to be there. i know in my small experience, older journalists who would not cut it today. that doesn't mean they aren't good at what they do. means the demands of their generation and our generation different. i think that older people who media saturation

is doing to us in terms of be updated in the constant news stream, there's a valid complaint and the argument time, get your facts right, that's always going to be true. we saw it -- we saw it on the ruling.are we saw it in the boston marathon bombing. swingshink that pendulum back and forth and now we're in a time where people are reconsidering how important it facts right, double source things. >> the first fellow, alex young glen es out of texas, reynolds operates out of tennessee. the next person moved from the coast where he was successful on fox news to create web internet. called "the k blade". >> the media is so far gone it revived.e "the washington post" out of all yesterday, tes

actually said this -- tweeting about benghazi, rich middle aged men lovers.k-fil-a what are they saying? white, tea party members. see what they've just done? he president used the film in the filmmaker and american rights in benghazi. that american rights or americans using the first amendment right in such a ambassador.he that the ambassador and three others were actually killed of american freedoms. that wasn't true at all. that's what they did. "the washington post" is responding. if i may translate what they cares about white christians. america, please, wake up. that's the most racist, bigoted have ever heard. >> what sense do you have about his success? he's a huge success stofrry.

a huge success at fox news. news, he mightox of be on the -- on the tip everybody's tongue anymore but he's doing quite well. subscribers, f tells a lot of ads. multimillionaire. e's a great example of an interesting dynamic of quote/unquote in the media where beholden to the news organizations than they previously were which is that mattered o -- what used to be calling up and saying i'm patrick atwood with the new york times. if you had the second part, "the new york times" part, no one to you, you can say i'm patrick abbott if it means something to you. allen writes "the morning playbook," he's a great reporter. e could leave politico tomorrow, go somewhere else, and it wouldn't change his value. venture, tart his own

probably, and have a lot of people come with him and we see his all the time that if you are a -- if you're good at what you do, be it what mike allen do and glen beck does, you can take that away from more traditional news your zations and become own independent person and viewers will come with you because they can because the internet allows them to. >> what are patrick gavin's 2012 political videos? we have, the top ten videos that became a viral sensation. comment, something somebody turned into something funny. could be a clip from a celebrity. caught the g that attention from the worldwide web and went on to millions and millions of views. it.0 seconds of >> okay. skin showing -- wind blowing

interesting about viral video is it provided another outlet for the icians to not look at message out there but to show the humanity and show their sense of humor. they're doing it quite frequently. they're not -- they're all of a sudden realizing they don't have sit down with "the new york times" and "the washington post." that they can do a sitdown on and do a funny video on youtube.er message way to get the out. they know that "the new york times" is going to get grilled viewers might get more in "the new york times" interview. speaking of the government video, the white house has quite extensive look at the president. here's the clip. the president -- he's in austin, texas. he has a camera crew following him. and then they edit it. put it on the web. let's watch it.

-- it's sort of -- it's hard to blame them from their perspective. their job is not to help the press. you saw what 60 minutes is trying to do. >> what's your guess as to happen over to time. >> journalists hate when they on't get access to the press and hate it when they don't get the questions answered. i get that. get the white house don't get that they the press. help rney's job is not to reporters, its's to help the administration. that's a long-growing tension. never going to go away. >> the press secretary is to say the president lp and the press. >> at the end of the day, he's being paid by the white house. paid by the taxpayers.

>> the end of the day it shall person who hireled him and fired president. he's beholden to a lot of people. but his job is to do the present it very nd they do well. its's a huge source of consternation. >> one of patrick from 2006. it can't be good. bad saying this in front of c-span. the fact that they're here filming me is great. a good promotion for the the event.r i don't know. at the least i thought we would get pbs. i don't know. npr, maybe. none of us are that camera friendly. audio is great.
