media. i understand why. >> why is the donald still driving the news coverage? our guest includes frank luntz who will talk about whether senator john mccain and a war hero and the senator's daughter. and the seeking of a justice department over the hillary clinton e-mails whether they revealed classified information and the paper changes their story after she pushes back. >> disturbing planned parenthood votes why have some have avoid or minimized the story? we have a report card. and the last love fest between jon stewart and president obama. the media you love them, they love you. are we focused on the wrong things? are we demanding teach of you? teach of government? are we too inflammatory? >> the media is...a bunch of different medias. there are some what get on my
2:02 pm
nerve more than others. >> it gets distracted by shiny objects. >> how much will the president and the left miss stewart's show? i am howard kurtz and this is "media buzz" today. we can now measure the campaign news cycle by which donald trump controversy the media are fixated on first accusing the media of distorting remarks about the war record of donald trump but he retreat add couple of inches. >> you do think john mccain is a hero, i know you do our i do. by the way i said it, and certainly if there was a misunderstanding i would totally take that back. >> donald trump went to the border in texas and fox and cnn and msnbc all with live coverage and he swatted away a question from msnbc.
2:03 pm
>> many feel that what you said when you said that the people across the border are rapives and murders. >> we are talking about illegal immigration and everyone understands -- that is a typical -- wait. that is a typical case of the press with misinterpretation. [ applause ] by the way they take half a sentence and they take a quarter of a sentence and they put it all together. >> the other 15 republican candidates when they got any attention, found them it is watching coverage or donald trump or feeding questions about trump. >> i cannot help it. we have to...we have to start with truck. >> what is it, specifically, about donald trump that is tapping into many americans at the moment, senator? >> it could be the $3 billion of publicity he has gotten by being on every channel all the time.
2:04 pm
>> is that true? joining us to examine the campaign coverage is amy holmes from "the blaze." and susan ferrechio chief congressional corporate for "the washington examiner." and simon rosenberg president of the news channel. >> why? >> trump is good for business were he is great copy. larger than life guy willing to say anything and take the criticism. trump and the media friend miles theft is how i -- media friend miles. >> we should not feel bad when he bashes? >> no. you look at the visit to laredo a quote what did now get so much play when he said when it comes to latinos thousands of them work for him and they all love him. can you imagine another republican saying that? the media would have been all over him. >> susan the resolution could
2:05 pm
say, well, he did not offer solutions and it was a photo op, but not with donald trump. >> they are feeding off of each other. the clip you paid was very telling. he is talking about something that the public is feeling increasingly about the media they don't have trust. we rank lower than members of congress. >> that is low. >> that is fueling the cap address because people are fed up with coverage. that is working in his favor. and the press, of course, is giving him so much attention. he starts every newscast all the time. that is a phenomenon. it is. it is huge. they are fueling each othess and donald trump. >> what did you make of the way that trump slapped down msnbc jose and he said "you are finished." >> i saw jose talk about it that morning watching msnbc and another network and he was upset and the whole segment he was very tough on trump in the
2:06 pm
segment trying to get into the data on what really went on, on immigration. >> he was not precise in the question making it sound like trump trump was -- when trump was saying all people acrossing the border were rapists. >> he changed that overtime, and that is what is going open with trump now he is calibrating. he has a big choice: is he going to become a conventional serious candidate and hire the staff and try to run? or will he be a media phenomenon? can he keep it up? that is the biggest question. >> is the press going to cover him as a serious candidate? i don't get the sense right now that he is being treated as incredibly serious candidate in terms of the questions being asked. the way he is being written about is a novelty. >> he is continuing to lead in polls with a new cnn poll having him in the lead nationally and ahead in the nbc poll in new
2:07 pm
hampshire and two points behind scott walker in iowa. you asked a question of him on msnbc and he phoned in by complaining that morning joe spent two minutes talking about other candidates and not him. talk about the change. >> trump's regard for himself is bottomless but in terms of questioning him i did get to ask him i thought an important political question, he has been quoted saying that he identifies or has identified more as a democrat and he believes the economy has done better under democrats. what you are seeing, the critical analysis of donald trump, in terms of substance, is in right wing media bloggers and so forth would were all over donald trump's answer to me and have been saying over and over again that donald trump is not a conservative sheehan opportunist and pointing out where his positions have flip-flopped as he put himself forward as america's great leader. >> in mainstream news organizations have pointed how
2:08 pm
he has moved on health care and so forth but it does not matter. susan, here is donald trump in iowa. the backdrop is the des moines regular december in an editorial called him a feckless blow hard say he should get out of the race. how did he handle that? >> i want to thank you and actually the des moines register is standing outside too. sort of funny. it is a super liberal rag. >> trump pulls the credential and would not grant credentials to the reporter who had nothing to do with that. >> that is a great move for him for publicity and like i said the people don't like the media. they are fed up with the media as a reporter i will still you the editorial side and the people who are out covering the news there is a wall between us so when someone writes an editorial unfavorable to candidate it is not supposed to affect how they cover that candidate. the public doesn't care about that anymore.
2:09 pm
that --. >> it is unbelievable. >> that is a point. >> he did not string him up with a rope. >> i interviewed him and he said you kept bring up negative times which puzzled me because it was a fair interview and i saw he said the same to anderson cooper and same thing that he said he is considering a third party run because republicans are not treating him fairly and he backtracks and that generates more stories and more news cycle. ahe is in this for the long haul. i -- when he emhernialed i said he is a serious candidate. he will be in this for the long haul. he is having fun. the other thing he is interesting. it is fun politics is boring most of the time and if you are the other republicans what is happening, the republican field now is in two tees, walker and bush and trump in the upper tier and the other 13 are sucking wind and are not able to break through this media storm for
2:10 pm
trump. it is a big problem for the republicans. in terms of the other talented candidates getting air team. it is becoming a self reinforcing thing. >> you look at the spectacles lindsey graham setting himself on fire. and rick perry calling him a cancer on conservative. the only way many of the republicans can get any air time is by tangling with trump. >> it has been successful there are three tiers, the trump tear, the serious candidates and the others that are in single digits. it is news that trump is gaining traction among republicans. and republican-leaning voters and i think you can attribute that to celebrity, et cetera. but the media is so focused on the horse rain there is nothing they love more than republicans fighting. the media isn't really putting its feet to the fire when it comes to his agenda beyond
2:11 pm
trying to get mexico to pay for a wall. which is ridiculous. >> he brushes the question off i will find a way you will find out. you say the media are not doing it. he defies convention by not answering the questions. >> you are not seeing so many stories about the flip flowning and who he is. but that trump is leading the other republican contenders. >> after john mccain and the comments about he is not a war hero all these pundits came on and said this is the going of the end he will implode the flameout will begin and they were all wrong and have been consistently wrong. >> the scant coverage has been given to why he continued to do so well. at the heart of that, really, is talking to people who support trump. i have been very surprised at the end duran and the level of support for donald trump. that in itself citizens a lot more coverage than it is getting and has to do with problems in the republican part itself.
2:12 pm
examining what is going on here among the voters is the respondibility of the media it is largely ignored. >> we are only starting to see signs of it now. simon this gets to the $1 million question this is a failure of journalism, all of these people, very smart political reporters and analysts and blow hards who consistently dismissed trump at the beginning who mocked him and kept saying, if he is going to blow up and he now is leading most of the republican polls. how did we blow it so badly? >> they blew it in the beginning and on the john mccain thing. everyone in washington immediately said, he is done, it is over. and he has gone up in the polls. part of this is as my colleague said this is tremendous frustration and anger in the country about what is going on in america and the science things are not going on in the try direction and angry at the media and frustration he is tapping into that is durable and powerful. it is also a sign of how weak some of the other republican
2:13 pm
candidates are he has been able to surge this far. listen he is in it for the long haul. he now has to not just show but show well the rest of way. >> the anger we need to do a better job of exploring that. >> i know you have opinions on this because i see it all the time on facebook and twitter. when we come back a "new york times" school on a possible criminal probe of hillary clinton's e-mails is softened after compliments from her campaign. was that proper? later, meghan mccain offers her take on dealing with personal attacks and yes the media and donald trump.
2:14 pm

2:17 pm
>> "the new york times" broke the story saying that two inspectors generals asked whether sensitive government information was mishandled in connection with the personal e-mail account hillary clinton used. "times" reporter is saying that the clinton campaign is pushing back. >> i also question how the justice department handled it. they first came out and did call it a criminal referral and then they came out later and said it's not a criminal referral. >> speak to the question of -- >> "the new york times" had a responsibility to come out and change their headline based on changes in how the justice department responded to this. >> didn't tell readers about this until almost a full day and it became a correction. on this point about the
2:18 pm
inspectors generals say it wasn't criminal. hillary clinton took questions in iowa yesterday. she said i did not send or receive anything that was classified at the time contradicted by the igs. is that whole thing just semantics? >> yes. particularly in changing to this passive voice. who was writing these e-mails? if it was an assistant or housekeeper or dog walker we should know this. i think "the new york times" was playing semantics here. i don't remember them issuing a clarification on marco rubio's luxury yacht that was a modest fishing boat. you can't blame clintons for asking "the new york times" to make these changes but you can blame "the new york times" for acquiescing. >> my problem was not leveling with readers we made this change and here's why. there's a second correction about this criminal referral thing. i used to cover the justice
2:19 pm
department. any time a civil agency sent something to justice it's potentially criminal no matter what it's called or labeled or phraseology is. the clinton campaign is going against the "times" hard saying the incident shows dangerous of relying on inaccurate leaks from partisan sources. the "times" didn't mention the hillary campaign went against the paper. >> the "times" will have to better explain what happened here. the fact that we're still talking about this on sunday and there's lack of clarity and this is a big issue and particularly important because the way that the e-mail situation is set up is there will be releases every month for the next few months. it won't go away. all other news organizations will write about this. constantly in the media. >> not to drag trump into this segment, he called into cnn this morning and said what hillary did was criminal. that remains to be proven. >> i think that this is -- the
2:20 pm
"times" needs to since they'll write about it a lot over the next six months, they need to get their act together quickly to make sure they have credibility to stay with the story. >> hillary's practice of not taking too many questions from too many news organizations, does that hurt her on this story as it continues to unfold? >> it has and it hasn't. it is hard to believe that the secretary of state did not traffic in classified information. that's ridiculous. on the other side, it's kicking up dust and making it confusing. the public is saying i don't understand this story anymore. >> she scored one against the media on friday when "the new york times" came out with the correction and she could talk about inaccuracies and media making mistakes. >> "times" did not get the better of that exchange. as always, thank you for joining us. ahead, jon stewart tells barack obama that the media
2:21 pm
loves him but the president complains about his coverage and the man who challenged donald trump on john mccain's war hero status will be here. i sure had a lot on my mind when i got out of the hospital after a dvt blood clot. what about my family? my li'l buddy? and what if this happened again? i was given warfarin in the hospital but i wondered if this was the right treatment for me. then my doctor told me about eliquis. eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots and reduces the risk of them happening again. not only does eliquis treat dvt and pe blood clots but eliquis also had significantly less major bleeding than the standard treatment. knowing eliquis had both... turned around my thinking. don't stop eliquis unless your doctor tells you to.
2:22 pm
eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. don't take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. if you had a spinal injection while on eliquis call your doctor right away if you have tingling numbness, or muscle weakness. while taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily... and it may take longer than usual for bleeding to stop. seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. eliquis treats dvt & pe blood clots. plus had less major bleeding. both made switching to eliquis right for me. ask your doctor if it's right for you.

2:25 pm
luntz. so you interrupted trump. you pushed back with the phrase war hero. this whole controversy is your fault. >> i had to do my job. i didn't know about which questions i would ask because i wanted to be fair to the candidates and informative to the audience and i wanted the press sitting in the front three rows to get something out of it. i had no idea that would happen. >> did you sense it would become a defining moment? >> you can tell by the audience. there's a gasp. this is what i don't understand. donald trump absolutely is credible with the voters. he absolutely has a message but he doesn't see and hear what's going on. frank, i got a standing ovation. every one of the ten candidates got a standing ovation. frank, they applauded me. they interrupted ted cruz and bobby jindal with multiple standing ovations. >> i didn't read or hear a
2:26 pm
syllable about other candidates. it was about donald trump. you did a focus group where you asked people about donald trump. let's play a little bit about that. >> what are phrases to describe donald trump? >> he's a sensationalist and media whore. >> best thing that ever happened to jeb bush. >> he never had a chance. clown. >> is all of the nonstop coverage that we've talked about and that you see on every news channel and every newspaper, is that boosting trump? >> absolutely. he absolutely is the front runner. he's walking into that august 6th fox news debate number one. i never dreamed that could happen. that's partially the media's fault. there is so much outrage among people who sit at desks like this about what he says when there should be accountability. >> you say fault as if we're responsible for donald trump? >> partially, yes. if you will put it on me because i asked him a question -- >> that was half in jest.
2:27 pm
i would say in terms of underestimating donald trump never have so many gotten it so wrong about one billionaire. >> it's been print media and on television because they don't understand the voters. republican primary voter wants a consistency and they want to know where candidates stand. instead of being outraged or predicting he'll drop out, which he's not, this guy is in it to stay then you should be showing what he's said on tv what he's written in his books about abortion because that's changed and about health care because she's changed. stop yelling i say to the media and instead start reporting. >> you also in that focus group asked people their opinion of credibility of the american media and you heard something surprising. >> they had more faith in bbc than they did in american media outlets. i said wait a minute. this is a foreign outlet. their response was but that's because they're not bias and because they're not ideological. i believe they are. but to the average american the
2:28 pm
bbc tells the truth and they don't trust media because they think they've got some sort of bias either left or right. that's a real problem. >> it's not just the british accent. >> you speak british when you have a college degree people think you're smart. >> does that reflect a deep seated unease and distrust with those of us in the news business? >> it's deep. there's a cynicism and anger and distrust. american people are asking for a simple concept. the truth. >> people might define truth differently if they're on the left or right. >> the truth is still the truth. they want it from you. they want it from the candidates and they feel like they're not getting it. the reason why donald trump does so well is because they think that he's telling them the truth at least as he sees it. that's why he's in first place. >> all right. frank luntz, great to see you in washington in person. ahead, why are those disturbing

>> president obama made the 7th and final appearance on the daily show as jon stewart winds up and it is no secret he likes the president and does not like republicans. maybe that is why obama got to deliver long answers about the iran income deal but they had an interesting discussion about the media. >> have people in government or in administration, as your office have yourself, have you become too guarded in the way you speak to the american people and to practice in the art of spin a problem with our interaction with the media is probably overstated.
2:33 pm
what is understated is the splintering of the media so it is hard to get one conversation. you have folks who are constantly looking for the facts that reinforce their existing point of view. >> joining us to look at job stewart's 16 year career is david zurawik for "baltimore sun". >> jon stewart is never hard on president obama. was that a if interview? >> my god 22 minutes and 13 seconds of let obama spin his spin. jon stewart look, jon stewart really is an important cultural force. he did something great. he engaged young people in political process. what comes with it is an ideology. he has an ideology that is left wing ideology. it is there. he gave him a clear run. he asked the good question, actually about should we have three years of college and then one year of service of some
2:34 pm
kind? that is a big policy question. obama said, that would be interesting, meaning i will never take on anything like that. then he said, you know what i would really like young people to do and he looked in the camera, i would like them to think about this iran deal that is such a good thing and i would like you to contact your elected figure in congress. that is in there. for god's sake. >> i like that he promised, are you too guarded or too full spin? not all the media love obama and obama reaccepts some of the coverage. and jon stewart said journalists were constantly complaining about not having enough access or doing enough interviews with regular reporters opposed to buzzfeed and youtube stars. >> this is astonishing. obama loves to talk about media. most analysis is wrong or 10 years old or a politician who
2:35 pm
hates the media. jon stewart should have asked this is the administration that has changed the rules of white house imagery. can you not take pictures. you only get the controlled pictures. what about the reporters one here and at "new york times" that he went after? this is the most hostile press administrations in the world and for him to let him get away with saying well, the from says interested in shining the light like we are a bunch of fools. we have an administration as hostile as richard nixon and we have tried to push back and it is guys like jon stewart who let them get away bit. i was so angry when i saw stewart if he could have gently and respectfully followed up. >> is this you being angry? >> from february after obama took office, i have been screaming, this guy hates the press and he has done nothing but try to take power away from
2:36 pm
the press. >> you have some company in that now, some 6 1/2 or 7 years later. how much of an impact did the whole stewart story mocking the pundits and using votes to expose contradictions. did it have an impact on tv news? >> i don't know but it did have a profound impact on culture i have to tell you the clemens students that i encounter new really think jon stewart is what it means to be politically smart. this is profound. he is not just teaching them to care about politics but taught them a way to look at the world republicans are pools. him and obama sharing a laugh about trump is typical of the kind of those would together and everyone else is a fool on the right. >> remember that jon stewart a decade ago went on cnn and got the network to cancel
2:37 pm
"crossfire,"bly saying the hosts were hurting the show. he can be funny and mean and use clips to distort and say it is just comedy. in an interest of, he said new that he is leaving the daily she he will not watch fox anymore. >> unless it is a nuclear winter. he is not hiding his worldview. >> there was a bromanc. thing going on with o'reilly. o'reilly should have held his job and not taken the embrace. i am serious you look at things that jon stewart does with an ten weiner when he citizenned him and attacked the press or brian williams, he protects his friends. he is not an honest broker. >> why does jon stewart get so glowing press although you say that he is tilted or basically in bed with the left and that he is giving college students an unrealistic view of the world?
2:38 pm
>> one of the reasons is a lot of the field of media criticism today is not filled with first-rate intel evenings so they see jon stewart --. >> we are too dumb? >> we will do what jon stewart and obama did we are smart and everyone else is dull. they see him and he is a smart guy and they say that is brillant but they didn't think of it. it is their job to thing of it. they are supposed to think about not watch a comedian with a totally different agenda. >> david zurawik good to see you. >> meghan mccain's take on the media and donald trump as a senator and now radio host. bill cosby sends a lawyer out to make the tv rounds and why that is too little and way too late.

2:43 pm
p.o.w.s that is beyond the pale and everyone is sick talking about it and i am sick of talking about it and people are saying nice things but donald trump is thinking about what he says that comes out of his mouth or not thinking about the things he says at the end of the day he is going to be his worse enmy. >> given that you have been through presidential campaigns with your father and he has been the subject of sniping from various directions have you developed a thicker skin? >> people and say anything to me or about me and why care or almost anything they want about my father and i won't care but when you say something about veterans or veterans service i really care and get angry. last week was the most emotional i have been over any personal attack against my father in a really ring -- really long time because it is so beyond the pale and it has been discussed ad nauseam what he said about my
2:44 pm
father and it is not affecting him but in the long run but we are 469 days away from the election and in the long term as we get closer our voters will realize this is a man who doesn't think about what he says before the words cop out. >> people can say anything about you but i remember when you were pilloried on twitter because you posted a picture in a low cut dress. >> you have known me a long-term. it doesn't bother me anymore. i have not had luxury of making mistakes in private. i have been the daughter of a senator since i was a very young girl and made dumb mistakes and i am 30 and almost 31 and i have learned to be careful about what you put on twit cher is something i did not do when i was 24 and i have to live with that but honestly, it makes young people and young girls relate to me. it is not interesting to have a perfect veneer on the outside but more interesting when people have scars and make mistakes and openly talk about it.
2:45 pm
we are not living in a norman rockwell time. but the mistakes have helped me talk to young people about politics in an entirely different way. i don't regret it. >> we have all made mistakes in our youth and maybe last week. >> in my case. >> you spent a year as contributor asment nbc. what was that like? >> man...i am extremely happy to be part of the fox news family. it has been incredible and only been working here a week. work at msnbc was personally a very negative time in my life. i did naughton joy it for a lot of different reasons. i am a hardcore republican and i don't think it was necessarily the right fit. a lot of people have their time have liked their time at msnbc but i have grown a lot and worked on other tv shows and i am happy to be here work at fox news. i will let people that study media harder to figure identity
2:46 pm
what is going on. >> you mention young people and you are not the spokesperson for all mill lendia but is it more sharing clips from facebook and tweets? >> you cannot underestimate the power of social media and republicans are and evening to have to utilize social media in a way that we have not in the last two election cycles. i find young people to be incredibly politically active and well read and politically savvy. 50 percent of millennials consider themselves independent which is a huge rise even since 2004 when i was in college. trying to reach out to young people is game to take a lot more than just staying across party lines and using strict messaging. we have to talk and communicate in a different way which president obama did quite effectively in the past two election cycles. i believe we have the opportunity to talk to young
2:47 pm
people in a different way than hillary clinton. i don't think she is very good at communicating with young people and i think it is an opportunity right new for whoever becomes the nominee to grab a new voting demographic that is voting independent right now. >> the rise of social media is a great and healthy thing and social challenge for us in the dinosaur media to adapt and be if line. welcome to fox. thank you for joining us the hope we will see you again. >> thank you. appreciate it. >> meghan mccain, thanks. a pro life group goes undercover at planned parenthood and ideology seems to driver the coverage. >> a pick shake up over the sex scandal story killed by gawker. if you have moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. isn't it time to let the real you shine through? introducing otezla apremilast. otezla is not an injection or a cream.
