"the boston globe" writing "model of inciting his supporters in disregard.er of turkey operate. you do not need formal censorship to strangle a supply of information." they feebly insist that he is referring to buy his coverage rather than the entire state. by the president's own words and long track record show again and again how deeply cynical and dishonest this argument is. president trump tweeting earlier today "the boston globe which was sold to the failing "new york times" for $1.3 billion plus $800 billion has lost its investment for $2.1 billion was then sold by "the new york times" for $1. now the globe is in collusion with other papers on free press." so sean. >> sean: can we look at katie. >> lisa: president trump made them meet argument that the media is collectively against them, and you have the editorias against them. does this help prove his point? >> sean: in some ways it does, a division between the editorial in the new side, but the reality is the media research center did a study that shows 92% of the coverage gets the president and nega

president trump criticized the paper for leading the effort, tweeting, "the boston globe", which was0 million in losses and investment, or $2.1 billion, was then sold by the times for $1. now the fwloglobe this is collu. meanwhile, the resolution reaffirms the, quote, vital and indispensable role the free press serves and condemns the attacks on the institution of the free press. >>> the trump released new numbers for us, shedding on light on how many migrant children are and still are separated from parents. according to court filings, 2,654 migrant children were separated from their parents at the southern border. 565 kids, or about one-fifth of the total, they remain separated and are still in the custody of health and human services. 366 of those childrens parents have already been deported outside of the united states. 24 of those children are between the ages of zero and five years old. they remain separated from their parents. six of the children's parents have already been deported. the administration also says that 154 parents have waived their right to be reunited with thei

with us now is linda henry, the "boston globe's" managing director.moody-mills. linda, do you think it's a good idea or why do you think it's a good idea? >> i do, i think it's a good idea. this is an unprecedented increase in rhetoric against the media. what this is doing is it's galvanized them in their own words to explain why they matter. and the response was really terrific. if you read them, there's just such a variety of voices in terms of a lot of media outlets were connecting them to their community and saying we're fellow americans, we're your neighbors. the language that's being used is incredibly dehumanizing. to say the enemy of the people, it sees other as this otherness. this was a chance to remind citizens of the function of the press that's often taken for granted. >> can you argue that -- isn't it better to remind voters and citizens the function of a free press is just being a free press and not making yourselves a -- not a target, but not calling attention to the president's allegations of collusion by making it look like there's a

as a a former reporter for the boston globe. [applause] my first child was born in the city and i used to i used to come to this bookstore to think how will i get a book here? everybody please just take pictures of me. [laughter] i can prove i was actually here. so whenever i tell a i tell a story whether for the glover magazines i like to think of it in terms of themes and moment and build around those. i want to begin with a moment in chicago labor day weekend the city was struggling in the grip of the great depression with record unemployment and flop houses that the thieves would steal everything even your shoes. but then that would be different in chicago 400,000 people streaming into the city for an exciting event so forget about what you know about the modern that was a real sp3 what you know about the modern day airshows. that was a real sport with winners and losers and a jackpot 's crowds one of the most popular sports of the time when definitely the most dangerous pilots flying the single propeller cop hit planes at a

the idea started on the east coast with thest boston globe. -- with the boston globe. >> disturbs a lotfolks are grateful we are doing it, makes you feel good. it says to us the stuff we are writing is generating conversations. >> reporter: some denounced the president. others were less direct. >> i think the moment is -- due expression. >> reporter: he says the media played a big role in putting donald trump in power. >> they had him on all the time. the media has a great deal to do with his success and now they are in his way. >> reporter: president trump firing off a series of tweets saying the fake news media is the opposition party. it is very bad for our great country but we are winning. >> he is elevating us by calling us the opposition party. he is giving us a position that, you know, may or may not be warranted. ytan honor to -- it is an honor to be in that position. >> reporter: the chronicle mentioned concerns saying this campaign plays into his narrative that the the media is aligned against him. ktvu fox 2 news. >>> still to come, new details about the arrest of a man from

this opened up the doors when the "boston globe" assigned me to cover politics. it was in a smaller setting as i recall but what i remember if it was a great refuge to figure out exactly what was in the tax reform package that i was supposed to be covering. i don't think i ever did actually figure that out. but this is a wonderful sort of place to hide as a reporter. in 1984 it was also the year that ronald reagan presented the presidential medal of freedom. i don't actually remember that and that is sort of surprising because if a kennedy sneezed in 1984 it was big news, so it must've beemusthave been my cole white house to cover it at that ceremony would i have thought about eunice kennedy shriver in 1984? i'm guessing i would have thought she is president kennedy's sister. sargent shriver's wife. maria shriver's mother. i wrote this biography in part to restore eunice kennedy shriver which is remarkable for so many things beyond the founding of the special olympics. so who is eunice? calling it this was a stretch for me. the publishers that you cannot call it

[applause] >> thank you so much for that wonderful introduction. so with those visions of the archetypes that lydia discussed i i would like to make a confession i don't particularly like to fly. i don't like turbulence or the drops that planes make f
