saying it was a success and that they are ready to meet again r t is the only news channel to speak to the group's representatives following the meeting. with. the help. of the us a little more or less you want good relations with a lot of. broadcasting live direct from our studios in moscow this is our international thomaston glad to have you with us. press secretary has released a video which she says justifies banning c.n.n. reporter jim acosta from the white house some called it doctored and manipulated while others claimed it was proof of inappropriate behavior and a debate is raging in the media over whose side to take up and comments.
6:02 pm
philosophers have long debated the concept of reality is reality defined by our perceptions or our perceptions defined by reality now at a recent white house press conference this debate became very relevant to many americans i think you should let me run the country you run c.n.n. all right and if you didn't well your ratings let me ask you if i mean that's one of the question is president by may i don't know how are you worried i should know that's a tough resident i think that's an ask one of the other folks that's a tough for me ma'am i protested enough for me ma'am i'm jim acosta the c.n.n. reporter recently had a heated exchange with donald trump at his press conference acosta kept asking follow up questions until dol trump called him fake news and an enemy of the people then a white house staffer tried to take the microphone away from acosta but he wasn't having any of it sarah huckabee sanders the white house press secretary says that now she's taking away his press credentials she stared
6:03 pm
a video in order to make her point we stand by our decision to revoke this individual's hard pass we will not tolerate the inappropriate behavior clearly documented in this video that's when the internet and the media went wild we have people saying that it's a doctored clip the video was posted originally by paul joseph watson who is the editor of the right wing news outlet known as info wars now paul joseph watson defended himself it isn't don't say that it isn't sped up it isn't slowed down all i did was look at it again is this an example of symbol don't ring to clip to change its meaning no it's virtually identical is it won't hundred percent identical no video compression is going to result in it looking marginally different so was this an inappropriate action aggressive or was it simply an accident well the answer to that depends what side of the political spectrum that you're on liberals and defenders of c.n.n.
6:04 pm
say that acosta did nothing wrong jim acosta. he really never touched that white house intern that's just a lie and what i saw was a battery not by jim acosta but by that young white house aide if you can use a fake video use a fake video as you go all the way do something like this. but conservatives are rounding in on a cost of accusing him of being violent practically shoving a woman who is just trying to do her job it just is it crosses a line you don't put your hands i don't want him a cost sort of wrestling this young white house intern so where is the truth americans will be reminded of the famous dress controversy where depending on how you look at the photograph the dress could be either black and blue or white and gold so now we have visual recording and which americans look at it and see completely different things it seems that as the political crisis is escalating americans literally no longer see things either i cabled mopp and r.t. new york. political analyst and charles old we're told told us that he believes
6:05 pm
that jim acosta has acted disrespectfully towards trump administration officials on a number of occasions. i think you know i think it's very important to ask probing questions but you don't have to shout them they could be probing in their substance they could be probing in you know the subject matter but to behave in the way that jim acosta and some of his colleagues behave shows i think utter disrespect for the office of the presidency and i think there needs to be a better balance its time for the mainstream corporate owned media to start getting back to the business of actually being journalists. the u.s. is still reeling from it's a fiercely disputed midterm elections which saw the democrats win control of the house but failed to take in the senate in some key states that they had high hopes for such as in texas where republican candidate ted cruz won after
6:06 pm
a tight battle and now there are accusations of those women who voted for cruz betrayed feminism with their vote a prominent sports journalist set off the debate fifty nine percent of white women voted for task fifty three percent of white women voted for donald trump so given this numbers who is the real face of feminism and this is just the latest criticism from of republican voting women by liberals and progressives here are a few other examples. what is happening why are women even voting for him yeah i don't get you what it is i meant the country's fifty five percent of it i mean the country was pretty. well we have tons of black presidents when i see women doing that i think why are they publicly disrespecting themselves voted against hillary clinton voted against their own voice. and by vote for anybody nobody but
6:07 pm
you are a woman and you are a democratic. and hillary clinton so i guess. i don't get it. she scared me we put the issue of feminism in politics up for debate with a women's rights advocate and a media commentator. the tradition of women just voting independently as they think and not based on their gender or their skin color or those kinds of things that is true independence i'm very tired of being castigated as some sort of racist simply based on my skin color and especially and especially because i happen to be the mother of a child with brown skin and so to decide that based on my skin color that i as i sounds are only what are you voting for the best interests of the hearings the person accusing makes the person accusing me the actual racist you know it says there's no such thing as reverse racism we'll start there but here's
6:08 pm
the issue if you're not voting in the best interest of that boy you get the rule around child that you have then here's the question what type of mother are you because here's the question at the end of the day we want children to be protected so we need gun laws that reflect that if you're voting against the interest of your own child in school then we have to raise the question what are you voting for the second red flag and i are going to want to do you have other women and their reproductive rights when you know that ted cruz is not interested in protecting protecting reproductive rights when you know that ted cruz is not interested in equal pay for other women and you know that women who are brown skin and women of other ethnicities are paid what why women are paid then i have to ask you the question who are you who interests are you representing if you're only as a white woman were presenting the best interest of other white women then we absolutely have a problem absolutely it is the republicans by the way it is the party of abraham
6:09 pm
lincoln that actually fought for civil rights and won over the democrats so if you want to vote in accordance with what is civil rights and you would want to vote republican now thirdly she brought up the issue and we don't know that those are how to if someone and we say when i was it was part of the seal there that's my stance and that's the feminine stand. on that now thirdly when she's talking about how do you say of course what are you going to say are the limits rights of you all of that i'm all that has made me girls who were aborted what about their rights if you're going to talk about women's rights what about the baby girl's rights who are killed ten thousand per day every day you know i know you're blowing my mind about republicans you talk about abortion but do you protect the children while they're here if it's ok for you to lead a school full of children be shot i do because you as a woman want to have the right to bear arms but you don't protect those children who can't carry guns inside those school i mean it's insane and so when you talk about oh well i support a man who you know ted cruz but he doesn't support via with when you're
6:10 pm
a conservative woman you celebrate the things that you've actually accomplished based on your own you know own drive and your own freedom and your own will and your motivation and those kinds of things that's what i would rather be judged for the rather than things like going backward to things like religion and skin color and gender to me those in the home and they those are the ones that we say they. going to stay with and we need to get really come over here and basing things on merit and accomplishment because because no matter what skin color or what gender you are you can be anything you want to be we are the freest best country want to put in the heraldry race and this that you are something to celebrate and for not wanting to whine about it and to vote with their other white community and so we're going to forget about all of those things and just stand on my privileges and raise us and know where she is and she wants to stand there i'd like to just say thank
6:11 pm

6:22 pm
