allows this deal to go through the far right leaning sinclair which at this point is a virtual. trump propaganda outlet would see its reach spread to approximately seventy two percent of all u.s. households for context this deal was announced just months after the f.c.c. changed its rules to make it easier for television media companies to consolidate used to be that they couldn't know no company could reach more than thirty nine percent of americans it almost seems like that move was payback to sinclair for being so consistently pro trump on the campaign trail is corporate media and a federal to democracy. not that i'm a big well. i don't i'm not sure what the first of all i think this is bigger than sinclair himself but what trump and his cronies are doing is they're moving us further into an autocratic government that is control he wants to control the message and clearly this is very interesting clearly he wants to create his own fake news and normal law he's doing he's doing something he was yellow he's already has paid for it but i'm talking about with this with this with

it would be a long night for the kazakhstan, scott sinclair soon made it worse.more to come from celtic, leigh griffiths providing sinclair with another. no one inside celtic park care, this was a night for the hosts to shine bright and they did so again, another fine bright and they did so again, anotherfine move, and other griffiths and sister and another goal. james follows this time. keep watching, there was one final flourish. griffiths deserved the goal and a0 had one, not to be. and own goal again but this was celtic at the excellent european best. lets stick with football for a moment because arsenal manager arsene wenger says the club haven't made any progress yet on a new contract for alexis sanchez. the chile international, who has less than a year to go on his contract has been linked with a move away from the club. but wenger insists sanchez isn't for sale and wants him to see out his current deal even if that means he walks away for free at the end of the season. we have to make a choice between efficiency on the field and financial interest, most o

you had a left-wing president, once sinclair takes ownership of stations, there is no piece of papero roll that back. many of these are irreversible. the various estimates of that isn't even compared to the amount of deaths that are happening because they fail to implement full coverage under single-payer. these consequences are irreversible. and they haven't achieved nearly as much as they could. because of trumps craziness. but they are moving. but they are seeking to take advantage of the fact that the system is much less democratic than many people realize. there are a series of letters used to overcome democracy, ranging from the electoral college, to a senate system where a minority of voters, a congressional and state legislative level gerrymandering, the possibility of voter suppression, the house and senate rules. support.t has big the only way to overcome these so that iss to amass why they are so involved i in voter suppression. they want to block that. they want voters to be dominated i their supporters. we are the media, covering these issues. if you turn on msnbc or cnn

what do you think of the proposed acquisition by sinclair broadcasting of tribune media? do you expect the acquisition to be completed? >> mike, i don't know what we'll have to say about that in terms of their acquisition. i'm being very kind, a conservative organization. they used to put editorial comments when they owned springfield station, i would demand, occasionally get opportunity for rebuttal. hard for me to imagine that kind of operation taking over with. g -- wgn. seems like a hometown radio station with deep roots in chicago history. hard to imagine outsiders coming in. we've seen great dislocations already. tribune sometimes and other things but i worry about it. i worry about the change of the approach at this station. >> thank you. lot of questions. great. okay, charlie garder in, roosevelt university trustee. do democrats have a chance to recapture the senate in 2018? >> right now it is 48 democrats, 52 republicans. there are 25 democrats up for re-election, nine republicans. so the numbers are not in our favor. out of those 25 democrats, there are many in

justin sinclair, vermont. at the very beginning of your lecture you mentioned that after halleck came to washington he was involved in every major decision. can you think of any player and i'll even open it up to north or south that could have done his job almost as well or as well or better than he did. >> everybody hear that? >> yeah. is there anybody else that could have done that job? i'm sure there was, but sometimes people say, you know, lincoln really blew it when he appointed halleck instead of grant to be commanding general back there in 1862. i don't think so. i don't think grant would have done the job. i think grant grew into that position. sherman couldn't have done it. the thing about halleck was that he was somehow able -- even though it esteemed people because he wouldn't make decisions and he would say, look, you're the commander on the battlefield. you make the decision. i'm far away. i can't do this, but the result was that oftentimes the decisions -- even when people asked him like burnside

trevor sinclair has joined us to discuss things. we start with your former club, city. sanchez, the arsenal player, for £60 million. what would he add to the team? he is a world—class player for me. if you look at the premier league players, at their best, he would be at the top for most fans. for pep guardiola, he plays exactly how he likes players to play, full of action. for me, he would definitely add to that city attacking line. they have spent nearly £300 million. kyle walker, bernardo silva, benjamin mendy miles of players. what is the expectation for pep guardiola? he has to compete for players. the pressure was on last season as players. the pressure was on last season as well. everyone was expecting the best when he arrived. with hindsight, he didn't have the squad he needed to have a real effect on the premier league and win it, but now he has the fullbacks in place, i feel he it, but now he has the fullbacks in place, ifeel he has it, but now he has the fullbacks in place, i feel he has everything going for him. let's talk about arsenal. they could be losing
