i haven't seen as much of bret baier.nd i know there is a difference between a news reporting and opion and editorial and all of that. but what i'm saying is the editorial part of fox news which is, you know, hannity, and tucker carlson, and laura ingraham. those shows not -- they are really in support of trump. and that is -- fox news has a good array -- has strong ratings. there is a chunk of media that is verbally and overtly in support of donald trump. that's just true. howie: there was a chunk of media that was in support of barack obama. let's talk about the runup to the iraq war. you are playing john wolcott. an old colleague of mine. in terms of name i.d., would you think tom hanks was would have an easier time. >> alec baldwin was set to play that part. we had been shooting for a week and on the saturday before he was supposed to shoot on monday he called and dropped out. i said what do i do? my wife michelle suggested i play the part. i thought i don't know, i don't like directing and acting. i said i'm availabl

i really enjoy the pictures in the videos of bret baier and him there. he went with so many of his friends from "special report." it is definitely a heartbreaking and potent moment for all the people and national stadium. >> they will celebrate charles for years to come. baseball was an extension of his life. it had real meaning to him. he understood the game, the complication. most people get bored by baseball because it is too slow. but the truth of the matter is, if you are really into the game, you are watching every pitch, and you're thinking what the picture is going to do, what the batter is going to do, and he understood the game fully and completely. in terms of what was happening out there. he loved the game, he loved the game as much as he loved life. >> martha: thank you very much, good to have you with us today. so, my next guest recently wrote of charles, "he had a singular presence there, a towering intellect, free of arrogance. here now, editor and a dear friend of charles, ab, i thought your call and that you wrote about him was so beaut

bret puts his arm out. charles was on the show forever.e paid attention to that one -- if he had something to say, he was going to say it no time constraints were going to control him on that. >> born to jewish parents who left world war ii era europe, charles raised his son to pursu purr pursue knowledge. >> his motto i want you to learn everything. you don't have to do everything but you have got to know everything. he thought that was part of life. >> family lived in montreal and summered at their college in long beach, new york. >> it was a paratypical childhood. my brother and i were inseparable. he always insist that i be included, so i got used to be around the big boys and taking the slings and arrows. that's how you get toughened up. >> as a senior in miguel university in canada he became captivate by journalism. he applied to medical school to appease his family and was accepted to harvard. but krauthammer put off attending and encontrolled enrot oxford instead. it was there that he met fellow student from australia robin trethwa
