tv   The O Reilly Factor  FOX News  February 3, 2015 5:00pm-6:01pm PST

5:00 pm
senator say about vaccine? senator rand paul goes "on the record" tomorrow night. up next, the o'reilly factor. good night from washington d.c. the o'reilly factor is on. tonight: you have more immigrants in this country simply better. >> charges that univision is in the tank for the democratic party. that allegation from a cnn analyst who also says his own network and fox news are both guilty of bias. we'll have a special report. >> i also don't think we should be walking around with a swagger saying, you know, we will drop a nuclear tehran. >> rand paul saying no to the o'reilly factor. generating more controversy with his opinions on vaccinations and iran. we'll take a hard look at senator paul. >> was it the biggest mistake of your presidency to tell the nation over and over if you like your insurance, you can keep your insurance? >> the economy is doing better but you laid out a
5:01 pm
bunch of proposals that you you know cannot get through this congress that is run by republicans. >> also ahead, we will analyze this year's super bowl interview with president obama as opposed to my chat with him last year. >> now bill, you have a long list of my mistakes. >> caution, you are about to enter the no spin zone. the factor begins right now. ♪ ♪ hi, i'm bill o'reilly thanks for watching us tonight. the presidential race off and running. that is the subject of this evening's talking points memo. presidential vote about 21 months away but the campaign is on and that is not a good thing. american voters can get easily overwhelmed with all the b.s. however, with the republican nomination being wide open and a polarizing hillary clinton likely to represent the democrats, this will be a very high profile election. obviously the media will
5:02 pm
play a huge role and unfortunately the press has been corrupted in america by money, the internet and ideology. speaking on news max tv yesterday, cnn commentator reuben is very blunt about univision which reaches millions of hispanic voforts. >> i show himself to be a partisan network in favor of democrat -- making democrats look good making republicans look bad. >> what about nbc, cbs? a lot of people, including me, would say they are totally biased against republicans? >> i agree. i would agree with that as well. cnn fits that category at times cnn is probably a bigger problem and effects a lot of networks as well. they cover the wrong stories. >> pretty bold statement from mr. navaretteeruben did say fox news is biased in favor of republicans. informed voters like you guys will not be swayed by media coverage. but millions of americans
5:03 pm
are simply uninformed. they don't know anything about current events. we call them watters world voters. as i have stated before the rise of the net allows people to totally escape the real world and they are doing so in vast numbers. those folks can be swayed by propaganda and misinformation. they don't really watch the news or read newspapers but they pick things up from their friends and, of course, in cyberspace. when you hear about political ground machines getting out the vote, those are the people being targeted. now, it's very likely that most of the american media will line up in favor of hillary clinton. she received very generous coverage as secretary of state. there is nostalgia on the left for the good times under president bill clint. that will be a huge advantage to mrs. clinton as we saw with barack obama the media helped him dramatically. as far as the factor is concerned, we are going to cover the presidential race in a surgical way. we're not going to allow the candidates to come on and bloviate. that's not going to happen.
5:04 pm
rather, we are going to develop story lines about those that would seek the presidency. the two core issues right now are how to increase take home pay for working americans and how to confront and defeat the jihad. today isis put on another disgusting homicidal event posted it on the net burning to death that jordanian pilot, 26 years old, who was captured on christmas eve. put him in a cage and set him on fire. once again the white house has no answer, no plan to stop the terrorism. just a few moments to take a look at senator rand paul who himself has trouble with the jihad. in the end there is a huge amount at stake in the upcoming election so let the political games begin. that's the memo. now for the top story tonight, reaction with us here in new york city monica crowley and from washington kirsten powers. kirsten, begin with you in an address reuben's charge of bias, do you agree with him? >> first i will say i think everybody has a bias and i think that the question is
5:05 pm
as brit hume always says are you aware of your bias and do you try to correct for the bias? and so as far as the mainstream media goes, they are overwhelmingly liberal. i don't think anybody can dispute that anymore. every study has shown that the issue is whether or not they are able to correct for the bias, i would say that generally are not because i don't think they think they are biased. >> okay. that's an interesting point. they won't acknowledge the reality. what is the root cause of the bias on the left? >> well the bias is that they have a world view that assumes that liberals are right and so they are going to go into a situation if a liberal is saying one thing and conservative saying another thing, they are going to give more credence to what the liberal is saying. >> polls show 40% of americans hold conservative groups 30% fundamentally liberal views. that isn't reflected in journalism. in fact, it's probably 80% liberal, 10% conservative. so, how do the liberals get control of the national
5:06 pm
media? >> well, i think, you know, part of it can be geographical as you know they are located mostly in manhattan, which is extremely liberal area of the world if not one of the most liberal places in the country. >> they can fly them in from anywhere. >> it's a little self-selecting. you choose to live there and i think journalism used to be for people who were sort of progressive-minded but weren't necessarily partisans. i think you could have a republican who was somewhat progressive and a democrat that was also progressive but they weren't necessarily rooting for anybody. >> there is one man who is responsible for this electronic tv journalism liberalism and i will reveal the name in a moment. but first ms. monica is going to get her chance. >> yeah, well the founding fathers didn't think you could have a healthy functioning republic of the kind they gave to us without an independent press. when i worked for president nixon in the early 1990s we often talked about media bias. when i asked him why he thought it was so biased to the left, he said to me
5:07 pm
well, my theory is monica, that smart conservatives go into business to make money and smart liberals go into journalism to change the country and to change the world. i think there is a lot of truth in that. >> okay. that's a very good point that conservatives tend to go into business and the business schools are full of them whereas the more ideological liberals tend to go into the media and you see that in hollywood as well. the one man, kirsten, responsible for the drift -- it's more than a drip is walter cronkite. walter cronkite was the legendary anchorman of cbs news and nobody really knew until vietnam when he got teed off and well he should by the way because they were lying to the military and johnson were lying to the american people and cronkite went over there and found out that they were lying and he got teed -- ted off. he and bill mier couldn't
5:08 pm
get more teed off. channel 2 running gun do to do local news i stepped across the hallway cbs news in the dan rather world dan rather's world if you are not liberal you are an odd yacht. who is responsible for it? walter cronkite. >> you have it all figured out. >> as always, you guys are just basically here to bring the audience me. i mean, i can't do the whole thing by myself. >> yeah, that's very true statement, truest thing you have ever said probably. >> do you agree with monica that that's what happened that the brightest conservatives went into business and brightest liberals went into entertainment and media? >> i don't know. i don't know whether all conservatives are scared off from it where weather they feel like it's a place they will be discriminated against. there are a lot of different things that play into it. now that also what's happening is it's reinforced
5:09 pm
by these, you know, left wing groups like media matters that harass these media outlets every time they cover anything that isn't positive about -- >> -- they are cognizant of that. >> it really effects things. >> number one, bernie goldberg got hammered as cbs because he got tired of this liberal stuff being fed to him and you know what happened to him. number two, the failure of msnbc. it's a failure. >> i had two years at msnbc, i can tell you on my show over there there were times when they would pitch a show say on abortion and they would position somebody on the proabortion side and i said well, you have got to give me somebody on the pro-life side and they would look at me like i had three heads. >> they didn't know anybody. >> it didn't occur to them to have the other side represented. also the corruption comes in with, for example cbs news the president of cbs news now, david rhodes, his brother is one of president
5:10 pm
obama's top notch security advisors. >> i don't think you can say he is biased because of that family relationship. >> there is a rotating door where people come in and out of government and into the media. it's very corrupt. >> it's all about pelley and about williams. >> it goes deeper than that. >> new guy at abc. >> it's systematic institutional and ideological. >> all right ladies, thank you very much. we appreciate it. next on the rundown, senator rand paul caught in the controversy about terrorism and vaccines. we will talk about the senator's presidential chances. later, should american parents be prosecuted if they use illegal drugs in front of their children? off the whitney houston daughter case. those reports after these messages.
5:11 pm

5:13 pm
if you take multiple medications, a dry mouth can be a common side effect. that's why there's biotene. it comes in oral rinse spray or gel so there's moisturizing relief for everyone. biotene, for people who suffer from a dry mouth. personal story segment tonight, senator rand paul polling well in iowa as he considers his presidential chances. but mr. paul is perhaps the most controversial candidate
5:14 pm
in the race. yesterday on laura ingraham's radio program he said this about the measles vaccine. >> i'm not anti-vaccine at all but particularly most of them ought to be voluntary and, you know, what happens if you have somebody not wanting to take the small post office box vaccine and it ruins it for everybody else. i think there are times when there can be some rules but for the most part it ought to be voluntary. that's not unusual for me disagreeing with mr. paul. is he naive when it comes to the war on terror and iran. >> do you think the united states could live with a nuclear armed iran? >> i think it's a mistake for them to get nuclear weapons. >> clearly everybody agrees with that but if they cross the threshold, is it something we could live with? could we contain it? >> i think it's not a good idea to announce that in
5:15 pm
advance. >> senator paul has been on the factor three times with me. once with laura ingraham. a total of four. apparently he did not enjoy the experiences. his spokesman sergio gore says he is now unavailable to us. here now from charlottesville, dr. larry sabato teaches politics at the university of virginia. all right. how do you assess the senator's chances to win the republican nomination, doctor? >> believe it or not, bill even though is he doing well in the polls right now, i don't think he has a very good chance at all of being the nominee. in fact, on thursday my crystal ball is lowering his chances. and the reasonable we are doing that is because while he is okay, while the republicans have a fractured field of many many candidates it's difficult to imagine the internationalist party, the more hawkish party going with a candidate is who a bit more dubbish, a bit more isolationist and the republicans also are not terribly libertarian and senator paul leans in that
5:16 pm
direction. >> every time isis commits another atrocity as they did today, burning alive the jordanian pilot, senator paul loses traction because he has no plan to defeat the jihad. and he comes across maybe he is not that way but comes across as kind of let them do what they want to do as long as they are not in the u.s.a. >> yeah, and there are a lot of candidates in the republican field who will use paul for target practice during the primaries and the caucuses. most of the republicans almost all of the current republican candidates or likely candidates have very different views than senator paul on foreign affairs and naturally, we're going to hear about that. >> senator paul did something very interesting after the "boston globe" article which recovered last night on jeb bush which said that the former governor of florida smoked a lot of pot when he was a high school kid. paul immediately took that and went out and said well, jeb bush is a hypocrite because he doesn't support
5:17 pm
legalization of marijuana now. i thought that was a cheap shot. what do you think? >> i think it's always a cheap shot when you go back to candidates in their teens and extrapolate any kind of point from something they did when they were 17, 18, 19, whatever the case may be. look again, senator paul has an interesting perspective on marijuana but he may be in the wrong party for it. that fits more with the democrats than the republicans. >> what about his father who has become increasingly i don't know radical a right word? ron paul? does that hurt his son? >> >> it does. rand paul gains from ron paul's notoriety and donation list and list of volunteers and the rest of it, but he loses in a way because ron paul the father, has the image of
5:18 pm
being more extreme. even a bit kooky on some things. rand paul is more mainstream. is he more practical, and he is doing one smart thing, bill, which is to go out and appeal to groups that republicans normally don't appear before. that's a good thing. i do think on the whole ron paul hurts rand paul. >> the younger republicans like senator paul, right? they are the ones that form his base of operations now, the younger voters? >> yeah that was true for ron paul as well. you see where it got him. you know, it gets you a consistent 10, 15, 20%, can you win some caucuses but broad base primaries no. >> all right. doctor, as always, we appreciate it directly ahead, john stossel the lib baron stossel on the rand paul situation and republican party in general. then, later will compare nbc super bowl interview with president obama to might chat with him last year. factor is coming right back.
5:19 pm
5:20 pm
5:21 pm
5:22 pm
get to our pal john who anchors program on wednesday evenings. rand paul ducking the factor. you don't duck the factor. you show up. what's the matter with him. >> i'm not running for office. >> it doesn't matter. he should want to be on the largest cable audience in the history of mankind. >> i agree. i think he should do the show. but on the other hand you are an obnoxious guys who barely let's libertarians get a word in. >> you don't get a word in. >> i get a few words in. >> you get a lot of words in. >> call me a loan. >> when did i sneer? do you know? try to keep a neutral face. >> almost every time i'm on your show. >> wait a minute, give me a closeup on stossel.
5:23 pm
give me a sneer look. >> you are ridiculous. >> when is the last time i said that to you. >> i don't know. >> the jury just heard you make the accusation and then say you don't know. the jury just said look, he is not buying it. >> of course you can't come in with an accusation unless you can back it up. so you think that senator paul doesn't want to be sneered at and you think i wouldn't give him his say. is that what you are putting forth? >> i can't read his mind. i don't -- maybe. >> maybe? >> i bet he eventually will come on the show. >> i don't think so. not after tonight. but, wouldn't -- if he had a better argument than i did, particularly on isis now i'm really angry about the isis stuff. you know what happened today, right? >> yes. >> i think enough's enough. we have reached critical mass. but then i would say to senator paul what is your plan to defeat isis do you
5:24 pm
think i would get an answer? because he is never ever ever defined anything about defeating the jihad in his whole life. >> i assume he would say something like i don't know what to do and it's better than your plan, which is a bad plan. >> okay. so then it would be i don't know what to do against o'reilly's plan to root them out? >> you are so confident, conceded, you want to bomb this guy and bomb this guy and have mandatory jail sentences for this problem and that problem. i like that rand paul says the state does not have the answer in the case of the vaccines, the state does not own your children. he recognizes. >> we will get to the vaccine in a minute. as soonisn't it irresponsible, stossel, for a presidential candidate to come before the american people and say "i don't know what to do about isis." >> you are not far off. >> nobody really knows what to do. >> i know what to do, all right? i put forth -- >> -- that's the problem. i don't want a president who
5:25 pm
says i know what to do. this is the fatal conceit. >> no, it's not. because you put forth what you think should be done and then the american people say, yes or no. but if you are going to run for president and you don't have any plan to defeat isis, al qaeda, boko haram and the rest of those homicidal maniacs if you have no plan that's irresponsible. stop wasting my time. >> our past you a thorn tarren plans to go into vietnam, iraq twice, afghanistan, how has that worked out? >> okay. how did world war ii work out when we defeated the nazis and the japanese. >> last success 60 years ago. >> no, no, no. that's not true. we blunted communism all over the world. in south korea they are free. north korea couldn't take them over and they tried. okay, castro couldn't get a shoe horn in the caribbean, we stopped that so don't give me any of this. >> some wars are worthwhile. >> i agree with that. >> most of our wars have killed lots of americans and created new enemies. before saddam hussein left
5:26 pm
isis wasn't the way it is now. >> okay, final. but it is the way it is now and you can't have a presidential contender going bl bl bl bl. >> rand paul isn't doing that. >> no, he has nothing. he has nothing. >> he said we should bomb isis if we have intelligence. >> bomb isis? >> doing that how is that working out? >> well what's your plan? >> well then you have got to go to bill o'reilly.com and read it i'm not going to explain it to you. see, you should know my plan. if you are going to come on and say i'm a warmonger. >> fair enough, fair criticism. >> get stossel out of here. i'm not going to sneer. we have a bill o'reilly.com poll asking you to select one republican hope that you would like to see win the presidency. so far the results are very edifying interesting, whatever word you want to use. we will give you the final tally on friday and we hope you vote. plenty more as the factor moves along this evening. the daughter of whitney houston died partially from using too many drugs may have imitated her mother's condition.

factor follow up segment tonight, last night senator excoriated the code pink. video backs it up code pink got too close to 980-year-old henry kissinger in a protest last week in washington. here to reply the co-founder
5:31 pm
of that organization. i will give you 30 seconds to defend the organization. go. >> first be clear. we didn't physically assault anybody. they were plastic handcuffs. we were careful not to touch henry kissinger or anyone else there this is using our first amendment right to free speech. the o'reilly factor should applaud people care enough to get up there and do this kind of thing. >> it depends how you do it. george schultz's wife says one of your people bumped into her that's what she says. >> no. >> how do you know there were a lot of people. >> there we are peace activists we don't hit people and create wars. >> chris jerry has a broken shoulder, is he 9 is years old. you might have picked another target. i know you don't like kissinger and the crew. he is 91 with a bad shoulder. i wouldn't have done it if i were you. i'm glad you are on so we can talk about something substantive. you heard today isis burned
5:32 pm
jordanian pilot to death. i am sure you heard they massacred and slaughtered people. code pink, what's your group's assessment how would you stop all these murders from isis? >> we think that the u.s. invasion of iraq that john mccain was such a supporter of, actually opened the way to the creation of isis. >> that doesn't really matter now. >> it does matter now, because it shows the history the u.s. military intervention only creates more extremism. we have allies like saudi arabia that are funding the extremists, we have allies like turkey that are letting the extremists cross the border that are sending weapons. in we should get our allies like the turks and saudis to stop the recruits, stop the funding, and stop the weapons. >> okay. so you are saying that the code pink strategy you want
5:33 pm
to stop isis. you want to stop them? >> because we are peace people we want to stop them. we want to stop all violence, that's what we are about. we are about living at peace in the world. >> they're leading the league in violence. you want to stop them but your strategy code pink turkey in saudi arabia to do it. >> no. it's to get all of the allies together to say how can we stop the recruits. how can we stop the money and how can we stop the weapons? >> that's a bit theoretical isn't it? support the groups in the country. >> a little theoretical. >> it's terrible but u.s. intervention is making it worse because we have seen what intervention -- let's look what intervention has done. >> madea, you have got a human being set on fire today, all right? >> you supported the intervention in libya you supported intervention in yemen. all of those have actually made isis stronger the taliban stronger, al qaeda stronger. boko haram, they are all stronger because of intervention. >> okay. i don't buy any of that but
5:34 pm
your philosophy today, after the man was burned to death, the japanese guys are beheaded, the americans were beheaded your philosophy today, code pink, says get turkey saudi arabia and other allies, we all get into a big room and figure out how to stop the recruiting? that's your solution or i do have it wrong. >> i said the recruiting, the funding, the weapons, the sale of oil all of that. >> how long do you think that would take? >> to stop. the ones who can do the best work are actually are our great friends the saudis. it's their extremist with a hab buy ideology that is the basis. >> we depend on the saudis to defeat isis and al qaeda and the taliban. they are the ones that ought to do it? >> i think the best thing we could do is get our allies to stop funding them. that would be the number one thing to do. >> okay. it's a ladder hard madea since the funding goes all over the place. all right. but, look i'm glad you came on and we always want to
5:35 pm

insurance in a whole new light. liberty mutual insurance. back of the book segment tonight, interviewing president obama before the super bowl, as you may know i did that last year, it was, of course, controversial as everything i do is even eating lunch. this year savanna guthrie co-host of "the today show" got the assignment. we decided to show you. so questions that ms. guthrie and i asked. >> why didn't you fire sebelius, the secretary in charge of this because i mean she had to know after
5:48 pm
all those years and all that money that it wasn't going to work. >> was it the biggest mistake of your presidency to tell the nation over and over if you like your insurance, you can keep your insurance? >> your detractors believe that did you not tell the world it was a terror attack because your campaign didn't want that out. are you the most liberal president in the u.s. history? >> i don't know if this makes it into your presidential briefing books but have you been following deflate-gate and do you have an opinion about whether the patriots cheated? your party lost in november but you went in there with such swagger. should you have been more con conciliatory. the economy is doing better but you laid out a bunch of proposals that you know cannot get through this congress that is run by republicans. quick game of either or while football or basketball? offense or defense. wings or chips and gawk? >> now ms. guthrie broke her interview into two sessions the one that aired yesterday on "the today show" was much tougher. joining us with mary katharine ham and juan williams.
5:49 pm
what was the difference between the two interviews. this is the no spin zone. can i tell from you personal experience, you don't play with a deflated football you hit hard and you come at people and you call them into account for what they have done. you went in there with that expectation that you are big bill o'reilly and you come to play. i don't think she went in there i think that first part of the interview that they used during the super bowl was intended to be somewhat softer and friendlier and, you know easy going. they say that save the harder stuff for "the today show" with a smaller audience. >> okay. now i don't see anything wrong with that mary katharine in the sense that you got to decide what you're gonna do and they wanted to have. >> right. >> ms. guthrie wasn't pandering in the interview in the kitchen. i don't know why they were in the kitchen but they were. i didn't think she did a bad job, how did you see it? >> look, i don't think every question has to be deadly serious, right especially if you are doing something for the super bowl. here's the thing, president obama who does not take
5:50 pm
questions from reporters very often as we might have noticed does these kind of events, he does the super bowl because thinks he is going to get off the hook. he thinks there might be a greater chance he will get a pass. with you that was not the case. this is because the larger society is like hey we are having fun on super bowl let's not get into super hard politics and bum everybody out. this is his job. he needs to be held to account. it's the reporter's job no matter what the president wants and maybe what the maybe what people watching the super bowl want, to press him and get some answers. >> you didn't think miss guthrie was tough enough? >> savannah guthrie knows politics, and she knew what was going to air presumably on super bowl day. she didn't get a ton of pressing in. he's really good at not being pressed. so you have to jump in on him again and ask more questions. >> well, if i have one criticism against miss guthrie, and again, i think she did a pretty good job, based upon what the expectation was i got hammered because they said oh o'reilly
5:51 pm
you're the mean guy -- >> you should defy that expectation. >> it's super bowl sunday and we really don't want -- i don't care. my job is to get as much information as possible. but the terrorism thing that's what i want the president to answer. because as we saw again today, with another unbelievable crime by isis and the white house reaction is, well, it's bad, and we're going to degrade them. every time people get slaughtered, and i'm saying to myself, it's not enough, that's where i would have gone. but everybody's nachos would have been spoiled. >> look, i think nbc management made a decision about what they wanted, and what the audience wanted during that super bowl, as you just said. but i do think she asked some tough questions about, are we safer now and forced him to talk about deploying troops. in fact, fox isn't playing some of the segment where he gets upset, you know, gets a little
5:52 pm
agitated with her for asking some hard questions. >> i know. that's why i think she did a pretty good job. but you know you've got to get to the crux of that matter. why didn't you fire sebelius. she knew she screwed up. what is your strategy? bombing isn't going to stop them. it's not going to stop them, you know? when i do an interview, as you guys both know it's more of a debate. if i don't like your answer then -- >> hey, mary catherine, have you ever noticed this from bill o'reilly? >> but to be fair to miss guthrie, she's a more traditional interviewer, you ask the question and the follow-up, but then don't say what's your opinion. i corrupted the whole interview process here. but by and large i don't think it's fair to say, even though she asked him about the wings, you can have a little fun in the kitchen -- >> it happens yes. and frankly, it doesn't -- >> and whip up some waffles right in front of him.

5:56 pm
bill i deeply admired your talking points to the nazis. israel will not let iran become nuclear. that's the reality president obama must face. we will not allow another holocaust. bill, i'm sorry to say, that you and meghan are wrong when you say parents have no rights when it comes to vaccinating their children. i did not say that james. but if the cdc signs off on a vaccination for measles or other virulent diseases, school districts have a right to demand compliance in the name of public safety. you can always home school. mike from virginia beach. why not mention illegal alien children and the lack of proper health care before they invaded the usa. in what context? accusing them of spreading measles? where's the evidence of that? i operate in a fact-based world, mike. that's why we are a dominant number one in cable news, and have been for 15 years. mr. reilly, the factor loses credibility when you put the
