john: even with the decline of breitbart? based on traffic statistics and other things, do you think it is a central as it was in 2016? it took place as what you normally ascribed to the center-right publication, the "national review," do you think that has changed in the wake of the election? robert: intense competition within media, we see a stronger demand for spots in media. one of the factors that led to breitbart's success during the election was that they carved out a very strongly early pro-donald trump position that fox news was not able or willing to make up that point. what we see in the changing prominence was that breitbart was sucking a lot of attention that fox news otherwise would have gotten. since the election, fox news is not conflicted about where their loyalties lie. they are not worried about marco rubio or ted cruz any longer. they have regained their audience. in part because of that. that may explain why breitbart has fallen from prominence. john: i want to ask a question of all of you. i want to hark

after his presidential dressing down, bannon resigned from breitbart, but kr continued to spread his brand of populism and is in high demand, especially in italy. he invited many tow rome to interview him. why rome? for a person that's often been accused of chaotic. italian politics are more chaotic than ever, what's caused the problem is an election win by italy's populist who bannon has been supporting. we will dig in with that later in the show. over the next wave of populism on mid-term elections and his former boss president donald trump. here is my exclusive interview. >> thanks for having me on, fareed. >> you thought the trump jr.'s meeting in trump tower was tree sonnous and somebody could call the fbi? >> i did. >> i want to ask you a question about the issue, in a sense, rod rosenstein called in the sense, isn't that good? shouldn't that process be aloued? . >> i have been a big proponent. in this ipg is petering out. it's the c block on anderson cooper. it will be done in 90 days. we will be done with it. >> i'm saying the energy, when hand anderson has something, it's th

well in this interview with the ultra right wing newspaper breitbart grinnell actually said that he was excited about the wave of conservatism in europe and that he wanted to empower the leaders of the movement and many german politicians here see this as a clear interference in domestic politics they quote the vienna conventions according to which diplomats are not supposed to meddle with domestic politics of their host countries and clearly they say that grinnell has crossed a line he has clearly expressed support for people like the bust and courts the austrian chancellor who is a vocal critic of anglo-american refugee policy so that's what their peers are subsets about what is the official german government stance well the german government has said it wants to question grinnell that taking the criticism seriously and that will take place at the inaugural visit at the foreign ministry this wednesday at the same time the foreign minister heikal miles from the social democrats has also cautioned against overreaction he says he wants to talk to him but let's not that react relations be

represent the united states in germany but in a recent interview with the right wing news outlet breitbart grinnell's words read more like those of a presidential campaign manager now there are a lot of conservatives he says throughout europe who have contacted me to say that the there's a feeling that there is a resurgence going on i absolutely want to empower other conservatives throughout europe and other leaders i think there is a groundswell of conservative policies that are taking hold because of the failed policies of the left. well that quote has become a lightning rod on both sides of the atlantic u.s. congressman are accusing grinnell of going back on a promise that he made not to allow his political past to interfere with his current diplomatic duties and here in germany a mixture of outrage and a let's wait and see attitude now the man who tried to unseat until america last year in germany's election the former head of the social democrats martin schultz said today what this man is doing is unprecedented in international diplomacy if a german ambassador in washington said i'm h

he gave his first big interview to breitbart the right wing news site that supported trump in the u.s. election campaign in it grinnell said he wants to empower the european right which he said was growing due to what he called the failed policies of the left he also criticized german defense policy the reaction from politicians in berlin was nothing short of amazement theo we want to have good discussions with him but on the condition that he maintains an exchange with all parties and not just conservatives regime change from washington we don't need that here. on his first day on the job grinnell called on german companies to immediately withdraw from iran while it's not unusual for ambassadors to share their opinions the way in which grinnell has been speaking out is something new as mine as i did dusty and this causes the boundaries of what it embassador should do not just in a partner country but it all meddling in internal affairs is clearly not an ambassador as well cornell does have at least one friend within the german government's ranks health minister young. they know each

for his coalition government with the far right but it is his recent interview with trump friendly breitbart news that has the government here talk greeno is quoted in that breitbart interview and saying i absolutely want to empower other conservatives throughout europe other leaders i think there is a ground swell of conservative policies that are taking hold because of the failed policies of the left. well on capitol hill in washington a plenty of tweets and criticism for the ambassador congressman chris murphy today twee did when i raised concerns to grinnell about politicizing this post he personally is sure to me that once he became embassador he would stay out of politics this interview is awful ambassadors are not supposed to empower any political party overseas. for diplomats are supposed to refrain from taking sides especially in party politics that may be why germany's foreign ministry says that the ambassador will have to explain his words on wednesday during a scheduled meeting is calling this criticism absurd and he's doing that via twitter d.w. news has reached out to the u.s.

i think the exchange you said with trump on breitbart.skilled immigrants. wait a minute if you're ending up with two thirds of kohl son valley ceos being from south asia, a country is more than an economic community. >> yes. >> basically you're saying too many people like me in america isn't that racist. >> no, no. economic nationalism doesn't care about race, ethnicity, religion, doesn't care about gender, doesn't care about religion, skaufl preference. it cares about if you're a united states citizen. >> those people -- in silicon valley. they are american citizens. >> we don't -- hang on we don't know -- no, no we don't know what's coming through by hb 1 visa or not. we can't get the country sorted out until we have now taken the entire elementary school and made it science, technology, engineering and math. >> steve with all due respect, what that answer implied was that they had come from the wrong culture. if they came from the right culture if i was white and christian you might have a different. >> makes no difference no. >> what

they have to be unafraid of what breitbart will say tomorrow or what the right-wingers will do to them in the next primary. if they truly think this is shameful, will they have the courage to stand up to the president and tell him? that is what it comes down to. murray: i would say it is unbelievable we are having this conversation today, but sadly, under this president, it is not. the lies have become expected and the finger-pointing predictable. demeaning,g, dehumanization have become just another morning on president trump's twitter feed. the moral holes he has been digging has reached a new low. we cannot allow what has become expected to become acceptable. what we are seeing done right now in our country is truly horrific. children in cages. babies being torn from breast-feeding moms. parents being told their children are being taken to bathe and realizing they are not coming back. moms and dads across the country are seeing these pictures and hearing the screams of the children. we are looking at our own children and putting ourselves in the shoes of fellow humans and asking, is

you are saying that one of my former employees went on to work for breitbart? >> [ indiscernible ] breitbart. >> i believe we did. >> you didn't? i don't believe that we did. i can't think of anyone who right guard. surly not trying to mislead you. >> i haven't heard of that before. >> [ indiscernible ] specifically trying to get the relationship with i.t. data and the raw data. he said based on the work that he's done it is not [ indiscernible ] -- anyone who had access could have had access to all the data that they work with. and i know from the email exchange that we publish, the documents [ indiscernible ] work as well. there's a next step to be taken. during the campaign and that's that [ indiscernible ] all the information made available to them using the platform. so currently all available data was ready to be sent to breitbart.

i think the exchange you said with trump on breitbart.id he was in favor of high skilled immigrants. wait a minute if you're ending up with two thirds of kohl son valley ceos being from south asia and then you paused and you said a country is more than an economic community. >> yes. >> basically you're saying too many people like me in america isn't that racist. >> no, no. economic nationalism doesn't care about race, ethnicity, religion, doesn't care about have gender, doesn't care about your religion, sexual preference, it cares about if you're a united states citizen. >> those people -- in silicon valley. >> we don't -- hang on we don't know -- no, no we don't know what's coming through by hb 1 visa or not. we can't get the country sorted out until we have now taken the entire elementary school and made it science, technology, engineering and math. >> steve with all due respect, what that answer implied was that they had come from the wrong culture. if they came from the right culture if i was white and christian you might have a diffe

expect some tough questions richard grinnell has come under fire for telling the right wing web site breitbart that he intends to empower europe's conservatives he says that they are on the rise due to what he calls the failed policies of the left a number of german lawmakers have criticized grinnell's comments saying that ambassadors should not get involved in local politics former german social democrat leader martin schultz tweeting quote u.s. ambassador grinnell does not act like a diplomat but rather like a far right colonial officer. argentina have canceled saturday's soccer world cup warm up in israel following pro palestinian protests the decision has upset some of israel's leaders with some saying leave no messi and his teammates are succumbing to threats but campaigners for the boycotts have praised argentina for taking a moral stand. argentina coach. was unhappy about playing a friendly in israel so close to the world cup for logistical reasons now the game has been cancelled over a very different issue. the match was originally switched from haifa to jerusalem angering palestinians

in recent comments to the far right website breitbart, he said he wanted to empower other conservative leaders in europe. he says the key word being empower, which to some would imply he might be gin actively to topple the centrist governor and in germany -- centrist government in germany. the harshest criticism is coming from the former leftist leader. behavingcused him of like a right wing colonial officer. reminding him that ambassadors of -- our representatives of their states and not political movements. says it is not up to them to tell the ambassador to do their job. you can practically see the eye rolling from the german website in this article. they say, he is not the first ambassador who knows not -- who knows nothing about your. -- abo europe. >> the philippine star turne aboutg -- started talking -- he pulled up a female supporter on stage. he basically kissed her on the mouth. is e case that you can see on page four of the philippine star. a militant women's rights group have slammed it as the disgusting the hat tricks of a misogynistic president. it has sparked a lot of d

he called fox and breitbart's commentaries state-run media that prop up the president. >> it's more difficulthan it has ever been. first, to hold people in power accountable, to risk access and all of that, but also you have a big chunk of mainstream media that is feeding the base of donald trump. and they are only getting information in one way. it's much easier to say, fake news, witch hunt, no collusion and repeat that over and over than to explain to people what actually happened, how the democracy was attacked, what th campaign are. were there any obstructions of justice? these are things that are very complicated to explain. but in order for our democracy to survive, we have to explain it. and we have to be vigilant. >> you say the pro-trump media tells a simple story. no collusion and the media is out to get him. what is the simple story you should be telling? what should trump critics be saying to counter that? >> what they should be saying is -- by the way, i think we're in a place right now where it's almost impossible to reach those people. they are set in cement in a way. they kee

the tweet featured an article by breitbart news. he is a known white supremacist who has claimed the porn industry is a secret jewish plot to destroy christian families. despite the outcry, king has that deleted his retweet an effect yesterday, share the same breitbart article again on his twitter page. this is not his first white supremacist comment will stop last year he published a racist tweet in support of far right dutch politician. in 2016, he told msnbc why christians have contributed more to western civilization than any other "subgroup." the u.s. army says it will repatriate the remains of four native american children who died at the government-run carlisle indian industrial school they were forced to attend in pennsylvania a century ago. native american children were sent to the carlisle school and similar boarding schools across the united states in the late 19th and early 20th centuries to be "americanized." the boarding schools were designed to eliminate native american culture, separating children from their parents

daryl: he never should have given the interview to breitbart.t is viewed as a propaganda channel, like the american version of rt. melinda: we have seen the chancellor, angela merkel, this week giving several interviews in which she continued to take a somewhat ambivalent position in forrd to the proposals european reform that have been put out by french president macron. for that reason, she's being criticized by some as essentially weakening the eu at a moment when it badly needs decisive leadership. let me ask all of you briefly to trumpisme question, if amounts to a test of europe's maturity and if europe can pass that test. laura: i think merkel needs to think of the long-term consequences of this reluctance to have more european integration. begives you more leverage to ambivalent, but now is the moment where you actually need to make a decision, and the coalition agreement was pretty on where this government is going to go in the european integration direction, so they should follow through on what they already decided. daryl: merkel need

a big swath of media, which you could arguably called state-run media with fox and sinclare and "breitbart" and alex jones and so on. it's even more difficult now for the press to break through with the truth. so it's more important now than ever for main stream journalism to really initiate and activate the real principles of journalism to hold a power accountable. >> let me get to the film again because we talked about your character, john wolcot, who you weren't the original first choice for that part, it was alec baldwin. >> it was. >> i don't know why he left the film. are you pleased with the fact that it fell to you in the end? how did it turn out? >> i mean, he -- alec baldwin left two days before he was supposed to shoot. we had already shot a week of the film with woodly harrelson and tommy lee jones, i didn't know what to do. and my wife, who produced the film with me, said why don't you do it? i said, oh, my god, i don't like directing and acting. so i said i would do it. she gave me one direction because john wolcot, who i'm playing, she said to me, just try to make it less je
