you see what's going on here you see this nexus of money politics and so-called news fox news devotes much of its programming to telling americans what they should fear but it's all crap the really scary thing in america is this the pollution of our news in the subsequent corruption of our politics before nine hundred eighty seven if you claimed you were a news outfit then you had to report actual factual new novel idea and reagan blew up the fairness doctrine deregulated that is media clinton for the process with the telecommunications act of ninety six and now as a result we no longer have news in america we have infotainment corporate billionaire run brainwashing just look at our major networks are scrambling to cover the revolution in egypt and the race for profits that close down their bureaus around the world after all they are necessary to report our ratings great grabby news like lindsey lowe and in jail or governor mark sanford is up to our news outlets are no longer prepared to cover the news we need to know anymore and this is scary abraham lincoln famously said let people

put to rest the myth of the liberal bias in the media here are the top five cable news shows on fox news and what have these programs devoted massive amounts of their coverage to in the past few years stories like these the threat of a new black panther party the threat of raises in the u.s. department of agriculture the threat of voter fraud within community organizing groups the threat of buzz looms building victory mosques in new york city and most recently the threat of the muslim brotherhood coming to power in egypt without a sitting here. is it just a coincidence that a group of white anchors largely white acres are targeting racial and religious minorities in the u.s. and we can't forget the relationship between the tea party and essentially all white movement fearing a socialist takeover by a black president and the tea party is funded by the billionaire koch brothers who in turn fund republican politicians to do their bidding on capitol hill like killing the health care bill stopping climate change legislation and making sure president obama doesn't see a second term which is ba

viewers watch this is the time for fox news to take news out of the word fox i know you're being completely ludicrous the bias in the mainstream media. c.b.s. a.b.c. n.b.c. p.b.s. n.p.r. c.n.n. and this n.b.c. is so new to the simulators and. with the with their part and parcel of the news the program because it so and you know it so you can find so much by you've heard so no wonder all the entertainment division so we could see if you sue many ways in which those the parts we see those reporters vote democratic so you think liberal spin the news so you think that if somebody calls themselves news and they tell over lies that that's just i don't need to tell you lies only but i think your thoughts pretty nice i think yes exactly what you're doing right now it's a. mess it's really supposed but if somebody just you know without genuinely yes or no if somebody is news and lies is that ok. but you're saying they're lying so you think the government should stop you know i do not think we're going to get involved in the for the president is going to get i think you got to think that's the bigges

years of this terrible recession why not just that by that code blindly by news corporations like fox news for example if we just found moments ago unfortunately we're out of time i thank you so much max rad wealth economist at the new school while wall street keeps getting richer while you are not are left out in the dust but the states turn against public sector workers in a desperate bid for more cash it looks like fox news is turning against working americans are key corresponded on a theater kinetics a look at how fox news is not very fair and balanced. these are some of the faces of the wisconsin protests mothers teachers and students going to class news that people protesting and i'm sure i'll get a flurry of e-mails calling for me to apologize for naming them exam bullies but they are and i won't apologize for it but that's what they are in reality there was no bullying going on that was certainly the case when our team was on the ground in february as the protests were peaking even. demonstrations some of. them going very. chaotic rioting actually not using. their might. and their

for the mistakes that they themselves did not make but as them stray sions have been raging on the fox news channel wells has been trying to vilify the teachers and the students as chaotic animals are to correspondent honesty a churkin i takes a look at how one news network claiming to be fair and balanced has been spinning their facts to get across its own political agenda. these are some of the faces of the wisconsin protests mothers teachers and students but according to fox news the people protesting i'm sure i'll get a flurry of e-mails calling for me to apologize for any mean them exam bullies but they are and i won't apologize for it but that's what they are in reality there was no bullying going on that was certainly the case when our team was on the ground in february as the protests were peaking even though people. what i'm going there in. chaotic rioting actually not using. their might. and their rights as workers that has remained the case for those we have closely followed events i know for a fact that there has been no violence whatsoever in wisconsin i mean you know i mean as

viewers watch this is the time for fox news to take news out of the word fox you're being completely ludicrous the bias in the mainstream media c.b.s. a.b.c. n.b.c. p.b.s. n.p.r. c n n m s n b c it's so ridiculous it isn't because. they but they are part and parcel of the news the part of n.b.c. so and so you can find still not like i used to call it so now under all the entertainment division so we could see if he likes the sunni ways in which news the parts with those reporters vote democratic so you think liberal spin the news so you think that if somebody calls themselves news and they tell over lies that says i don't need to tell you what i thought he puts i think you're pretty nice i think yes exactly what you're doing right now it's going to be my second is absolutely to think that if somebody just you know becomes genuinely a real sort of somebody you know as they saw the news and lies is that ok. if you're sitting there lying so you think you think the government should stop no i'm not going to go get involved in the breast center did that it ok but i think you know i think

you've been busted misleading the public but the thing is that that's not even the only example fox news is still trying to make you believe that union thugs are running rampant in wisconsin and beating up fox reporters with other footage last night on the bill on the o'reilly factor bill o'reilly was doing a report again with mike tolbert then just take a look at some of the video that rolled during this interview that shows a very heated exchange of the wisconsin rally before you roll the clip see if you notice all the beautiful palm trees that they have in madison. it's tough to tell when you get to the weekend you get a lot of out of towners a lot of people are bussed in from a not just wisconsin but a lot of surrounding states talk to someone who is from california who's sleeping in the capitol throughout this process so you get a real mixed bag who brought them in who bus them in. some of the different labor organizations have brought people in. who never was constant had palm trees and so much sunshine in the winter right so it turns out the footage of the fox air during o'reilly'

all right now on "fox news sunday." and hello again from fox news in washington. before we talk with our guests, we want to bring you the latest on events in the middle east. in syria, government soldiers have been deployed around the cities that have seen the biggest protests. in yemen, talks for a peaceful transfer of power failed saturday. now authorities worry about al-qaeda gaining strength in that country. and in libya, bombing by u.s. and allied planes has paved the way for rebel forces to retake the key oil town of brega. for more on libya, let's bring in fox news correspondent steve harrigan in tripoli. steve? >> reporter: chris, a rapid advance by the rebels, they are moving west quickly toward what they say is an eventual battle right here in tripoli. they have taken the first key town of ajdabiya but they have gotten a lot of help from the allied airstrikes that targeted gaddafi tanks, rocket launchers, as well as artillery that has really paved the way for them to take the town of ajdabiya. but also more importantly, the resupply trucks from the gover

all right now on "fox news sunday." hello again from fox news in washington where we are tracking two major stories. we have a reporter in libya where the u.s. and its allies are using military force to protect the antiqaddafi rebels. and in japan, where officials are making progress toward bringing a nuclear plant under control. we'll have more on that later and talk with the secretary of energy. first, libya, u.s. stealth bombers struck a major libyan airfield. and qaddafi called the raids terrorism and said the attackers will be defeated. let's get the latest from steve harrigan in tripoli. >> the strikes overnight targeted not just the air defenses but the command and control center here in tripoli as well. i'm standing two miles from colonel qaddafi's compound and the scene here about 2:30 in the morning got quite loud. three large incoming explosions. they may have been cruise missiles or attacks from british war planes. they were answered immediately from antiaircraft batteries here on the ground firing up from s

all right now on "fox news sunday." and hello again from fox news in washington. the supreme court ruled this week that no matter how hateful speech in public places on public issues is protected by the constitution. before we talk with one of the leaders of westboro baptist church, fox news correspondent james rosen tells how we got here. >> reporter: at funerals and other solemn events across the country, members of the westboro baptist church showed up to wave patently obnoxious signs and chant protests against society that's grown too tolerant of sins. many of the parishioners are relative of founder fred phelps and while the action are widely condemned, the supreme court ruled that the protest outside the 2006 funeral of slain marine matthew snyder who was not gay, was constitutional. >> our team's reaction is thank god, praise his name. the secondary reaction is nothing has changed except this. this case put a megaphone to the mouth of this little church. >> reporter: chief justice john roberts wrote the court 8-1 opinion citing the need to protect even hurt

maybe not as a counter to fox news say but at the very least that creating reason given how they are doing as a nonprofit in their funding from a variety of sources does give them a certain kind of independence they don't go for the most sensational thing they don't have to go for things that might offend advertisers and same way as other networks might have issues so there's no doubt they're doing very high quality stuff too i mean i think few people would deny whether or not you're alleging bias but the level of reporting they're doing is really in terms of radio reporting unmatched i mean these are truly some of the best programming out there in the country the last word i would counter your argument by stating that fox news does have some competition it's called. c.b.s. and b.s. and b c s n b c c.n.n. and all the other liberal. stations that are out there so little fox news farting against the entire world for the very tiny nearly gave me a break i see that a lot of the day it's about the bubble though it's about those are all the same model of advertising driven they're very muc

itchy al-jazeera the new chinese network they are legitimate real news outlets that have been able to exploit holes in coverage that fox which i don't even consider news anymore it is a propaganda arm c n n. b c have that works have wolf fully cleared the table and allowed these networks to come in i mean al-jazeera for the middle east unrest the loom you know these are real news networks which she's talking about is getting money for propaganda operations like voice of america all that money she would literally better off taking that money and start. in the state run real news operation the trying to be for voice of america's propaganda arm which are not really catching on overseas and do you think that's why it's they're not catching on overseas i mean as kind of just mentioned in the piece here seven hundred fifty million dollars a year that's not a tiny little budget you know the u.s. has seven of these channels and i consider what i do every day to be breaking the news through talking about the news to be uncovering the stories of the mainstream media he is touching is you know doesn't want to go near so what exac

it is not so much fox news as opinion in the world news and that you have a stunningly upbeat -- >> i think people know when they are getting opinion in the world news. and getting distinction between the two -- >> just like you'd like to get challenged by some of the dinner table, you can't believe they said something. socrates might have said that is how we learn, too. >> there is no to a question about that. i am talking about the world news. this is where you were raised and where you have been had a very hypothetical for a long time. in the world news, people might like to believe that the news is where you get information, not opinion. we are now in a world where there is so much more opinion, it seems, then straight, hard news. no matter how gloriously intelligent every person is, it may be difficult on occasion to distinguish one from the other. you say the american people will make that decision. >> i believe they do. i don't know about news. i think thoughts are still the currency of what you and i want to deal in. we know that we have to bring to the fact that we seek out e

three years of this terrible recession why not just that but i thought blindly by news corp's like fox news for example which i found moments ago unfortunately we're out of time but thank you so much max rad wealth economist at the new school. that's what i had for it thank you so i had for this half hour spreading democracy of usa idea so where exactly is that money going. plus the for julian assange and wiki leaks there was john young co-founder of crypto straight ahead come along for a tour of new york a secret one that the u.s. government does not want you to know about. but we are right. i think. we never got the says they're safe get ready because their freedom. drives the world the fear mongering used by politicians makes decision to break through a third. who can you trust no one who is you with the mission where we had a state controlled capitalism it's called sessions when nobody dares to ask we do our t. question more. each year the united states gives more than forty million dollars to usa aidid this in hopes of spreading democracy abroad because the government really know where

programming out there in the country the last word i would counter your argument by stating that fox news does have some competition it's called. c.b.s. and b.s. and m.s.m. you see c.n.n. and all the other liberal. stations that are out there so it's a little faux news fighting against the entire world to be a very tiny community but you got me a break i said a lot of it it's about the model though it's about those are all the same model of advertising driven in their very much for profit and it colors the coverage in a lot of things it's nice having space for p.b.s. n.p.r. something that could maybe take a step back and focus on where is there coverage that people are missing out on may not bring is in as much as i balls or as much advertising dollars but it's valuable coverage there are you guys i want to thank you both for joining me very much i'll see where this goes but i bet that there's a more you know right leaning version of n.p.r. republicans will not be trying to defund it ok come on tonight's show because he loves his country so much he can get on his rights one of the politic

views was fox news in that's what you have again is fox news has the most anti-war reporting of any of the major networks and that's basically just because obama is president so it turns into anti obama reporting now i'm just curious as to you obviously run antiwar dot com i think these days if people want analysis a lot of them will go to the internet but how does your traffic you know what this is and follow depending on what's going on in our war zone or did you suddenly see a big pick up when we launch another war into libya oh absolutely whenever there's action going on in wars around the world are traffic skyrockets and that's what we're seeing today people want to look for an alternative because most people see this and as just blindly following the president i mean i don't think good shots fools anybody but do you think you know why did why do the child's do it and do you know do television personalities think their audiences are that stupid that they can't understand a little bit of nuance a little bit of analysis instead of paying everything so black and white yes i think the

or may i just say fox news and perhaps certain christian advocates and publishers out there are really upset because there's a new series that has a pilot that is based on a book called good christian beaches and there's just been a pilot the network can't even pick that up yet and they're up in arms i mean really are those where our priorities lie. unfortunately for a lot of people the answer that question is yes i mean the fact that a twitter feed got turned into a t.v. show and they still had to bleep the title i think says a lot about what passes on networks these days and unfortunately people would rather complain about the title of a t.v. show because that's a strikes us often noticing that there are a lot of people out there trying to take women's rights away well you know i think this is something that a lot of people are debating too when it comes to the word bitch is it still bad is it always derogatory or has it become a little mainstream you know i love the jazz bill was using the example of britney spears and some of her pop music to show that some people use it you know a

ran for prime minister with his billions in the full support of his own wholly owned versions of fox news fox radio fox news paper and surprise surprise he won three times so far most of berlusconi's problems had to do with charges he was having sex with underage girls but now they're starting to look into the business practices that made him a billionaire and led to his becoming prime minister he was back on trial for tax fraud today after italy's constitutional court took away his immunity from prosecution that decision also allows three other cases to move forward as well surprise surprise the current tax case stems from berlusconi's media empire is media sick or peroration is accused of using offshore companies to avoid paying taxes just like bank of america alipurduar here trails for the bribery and sex crimes will begin early. still ahead here in the big picture you have heard for a while now other states are keeping a watchful eye on the battle in wisconsin whether or not they can learn something that's up to the best. actress lindsay lo and keep. the preaching about islam and the

now and that's why am i to open bill o'reilly on the entire fox news channel are tonight's tool time winners. now many of work to stop islamophobia in the u.s. there's one organization who in fact. the f.b.i. has been sending informants in disguise to muslim communities and hopes of finding any muslims who are staging militant attacks but in this process they're deceiving peaceful muslims and in some cases turning innocent victims against other members of their own community parties or on the window has the story. as american muslims prepare for prayers appear remains that the worshiper next to them spied all. this is especially true in southern california where peter formants have fractured the cohesiveness of a large body community i'm fearful. my wife my family and i fear that. you know they're going to come down. after a lemo you found out he was being spied on he thought be trained by his country you know he feels alienated because fellow muslims are now suspicious day he might be a spy the twenty six year old southern california native was approached by f.b.i. informant craig m

and this is "fox news sunday." japan is rocked by a huge earthquake, and then a devastating tsunami. that killed hundreds and damaged two nuclear plants. we'll have the latest from japan and talk with a nuclear safety expert. then congress deadlocks over the budget as gas prices climb. we'll discuss both with the senate top republican mitch mcconnell. two budget hawks sell a bipartisan plan to cut the deficit. we'll sit down with senators mark warner and saxby chambliss. plus, the latest on libya. what can and should president obama do to oust muammar gaddafi? we'll ask our sunday panel. and our power player of the week. the undercover provacateur strikes again. all right now on "fox news sunday." and hello again, from fox news in washington. here is the latest on the situation in japan. officials there now fear more than 10,000 people may have been killed in the earthquake and the tsunami. they are fighting partial meltdown at two nuclear reactors and more than 170,000 people have been evacuated from around the pl

now before we go tonight it's time for our tweet of the day fox news suspended rick santorum and newt gingrich today saying those two men are moving closer to running for president in two thousand and twelve and the network said about move would avoid a conflict of interest so tonight we wanted to tweet to fox news hey you guys are just shut down until after twenty twelve because you're just the mouthpiece of the g.o.p. fair and balanced my ass now is it for tonight's show thanks for tuning in at maytree come back tomorrow an experience from the young turks will be back on the program also it was reported today that bradley manning was charged with twenty two new counts including a capital offense of aiding the enemy will look further into those charges related to wiki leaks tomorrow in the meantime don't forget to become a fan of be alone or show on facebook and all of us on twitter and if you missed any of tonight's show or any other nights you can always catch it all the you tube dot com plus the long show where we post the interviews as well as the show in its entirety coming up n

but what's the deal could be the tight knit bond between glenn that in fox news has finally unraveled could all of his anti-socialist in islamophobia commentary finally be the last straw with network executives or maybe what he was it was what he toured the country charging one hundred dollars a seat for the audience only to be welcomed by empty chairs or maybe people finally got sick of and pushing gold bars and emergency food supplies like some sort of shopping network advertisement for her a lot of reasons out there but i think david carr of the new york times had an interesting take he said the problem with glenn beck is that it's turned into a serial doomsday machine it's just a bummer to watch and who couldn't agree with that it's not like news is always good news for the most part is it but if it's real at least you can relate to it when it's all a giant conspiracy about how the world is coming to an end well. that's when your credibility gets into danger so this talk of getting rid of back show that even the fair and balanced network is actually attempting to save some of the

fifteen people now reliance and this is a state which is a very classically red state it's a very fox news sort of audience these are this is what glenn beck and his terrorist that he's defending they are they've caused the starvation the near starvation of seventeen million people number one employer in food stamp administration and distribution. j.p. morgan. it's right they help the billionaires of the kleptocrats and then they administer food stamp program for the peasants and by the way you're probably one of the peasants aren't you except unless you're one of ability as a larger show because of our recommendation for gold and silver but anyway please continue so final headline here fox news glenn beck telling you don't organize whatever you do that the devils leftism it's like these are evil people their fellow nazis and all these nasty little tards so don't organize i'm going to show you what happened in a nation that would probably be called socialist by glenn beck marxists and other sort of nasty words in american lingo dutch bankers' bonuses axed by people power so in the netherla

thank it's amplified on fox news if you look at this little video here. glowing radiation very very good but you are not delon on radiation poisoning well it's not me i'm citing a stunning number of physicists and from the new york times the times of london there's a growing body of evidence that. radiation in excess of what the government says is that of a minimum out there should be exposed who are actually good for you would reduce cases of cancer so that of course this bill o'reilly egging her on and you could even see in our culture space that she's kind of laughing like she knows it's a joke but that's the way they do it is that a shocking number a stunning number of physicists believe i'm right and in fact it would be shocking if there were one that believes she were correct to say go on to fukushima it'll be very good for you but that wasn't on the payroll of boxing is another one like murdoch and you know this is a yellow journalism taken to you know radioactive extremists radioactive journalism . fox news and coulter bill o'reilly here to packag

really meantime he sure is giving us a lot to talk about this morning of the donald called into fox news to discuss the u.s. military actions in libya and one of the host asked what makes him qualified to be president he made this claim i've been interacting with leaders of countries or leaders of business all over the world all of my life and i think you guys know that probably better than anybody i think i probably have more experience at anybody. so trump has more experience than anyone else i mean yes i'm sure that he has made a lot of international business deals and i can definitely help but then again his business empire has had to file for bankruptcy protection several times time not quite sure that that sounds like a man that's called to be president from then went on to talk about his experience in dealing with world leaders including moammar gadhafi. and i could tell you something terrible shot i don't want to go free i don't want to believe what. i read to them a piece of land he paid me where you are now you can get it where it was rough but every year after two years i don'

some of the free service of the wisconsin protests mothers teachers and students but according to fox news the people protesting i'm sure i'll get a flurry of e-mails calling for me to apologize for any mean them bugs employees but they are i won't apologize for it that's what they are in reality there was no bullying going on that was certainly the case. when our team was on the ground in february as the protests were peaking even though the. demonstrations have been the one area not chaotic rioting it is actually not that easy going. there might be. and there might be workers that has remained the case for those who have closely followed events i know for a fact that there has been no violence whatsoever in wisconsin i mean you know i mean aside from people stepping on each other's toes accidentally there just hasn't been police even shoot a thank you statement to protesters for being peaceful but according to fox news channel the demonstrators have been an uncontrollable mob not a terribly civil or classy group of people profanity but garrity and pretty vile behavior and these are nothi

stuff was being picked up and fed back to the united states through the auspices of places like fox news of course so we have been subjected to the program the answer isn't to have the pentagon officials deny things and say they didn't do it it's to not take a scalpel to that budget item but to take a butcher's knife to it and get rid of a lot of these science programs in the pentagon in the state department and elsewhere it's pretty interesting i mean what about this concept that in addition to not being able to trust everything you see on t.v. on the mainstream media even people with them is that this man can't trust their own people i mean what do you think the facts of this thing raney's are that these are the people in congress who actually have the ability to cut these things out of the budget so where are they they expressed you know what we heard senator mccain say it wouldn't change his. policies but we've seen mccain go from two thousand. and to be you know he was a fairly moderate person to a sort of a right wing lunatic. in a period of ten years and so i would say that all th

been a police even issue to thank you statement to protesters for being peaceful but according to fox news channel the demonstrators have been an uncontrollable mob not a terribly civil or clashing group of people profanity vulgarity and pretty vile behavior and these are nothing but and always the nonexistent violence was taken to an extreme but the spin of an alleged attack on a fox reporter ok let me show you what you know who seem to have seen it coming that hey you get it was great as you can see it there the utter lack of civility civility and the harassment of reporters there from a video posted online it became clear that nothing close to harassment had taken place but it was too late to stop the infamous fox been pushing him there showing him apparently one even him pushing it even further the so-called bullies came out to protest in a cold snowy winter a more violent protest video featured by bill o'reilly had paul. trees in the background turning the channel into a cartoon show the brazen nature of this propaganda what is sad and tragic is that ninety percent of thoughts viewers

to the earthquake in japan dominating the news cycle but leave it to fox news to hype it up in a headline article this morning with obama starts pushing gun control now of course we expect box news a tape on obama just about anything well they are the mouthpiece of the g.o.p. and the n.r.a. but so far there really hasn't been all that much pushback today from gun advocates that's probably because obama really didn't say anything aggressive or revolutionary in this op ed but gun owners were fearful of obama before he was even elected do you remember when then senator obama made his famous gun gaffe that caused an uproar in the primary which when he and hillary clinton. ok. cling to their guns and religion now that wasn't such a smart move by candidate obama and he seemed to have learned his lesson and i'm sure his comments many gun owners were convinced that despite all evidence to the contrary that obama was elected he would instantly take their guns away so people rushed to the gun stores to stock up the f.b.i. so the background checks during the last three months of two thousand and eig

storms the wisconsin capital i mean a real idea these people were so scary that you oh my god look fox news is comedy hour it's a propaganda machine and everything that comes out of their network is a complete lie ok they're complete b.s. and the only thing that makes me upset about that is that some people are fooled into believing that they're fair and balanced but their coverage of everything from the chips to the protests that are going on now in wisconsin are full of lies complete lies complete propaganda so don't buy into it people. i'm with you there i try to preach the same thing every single day at a thanks so much for joining us and i hope you're right i hope this does become a long lasting movement here in the u.s. . all right thanks. should we be getting worried virus some of the world's biggest investors jumping ship from u.s. stocks and bonds bill gross of pimco who runs the world's largest bond fund has dumped u.s. treasuries and billionaire hedge fund manager car i can is giving investors their money back and talking about the possibility of another market crisis so what do

the news segment as the glenn beck grand have an expiration date and here times is reporting that fox news is contemplating life without back at the end of this year with his contract expires if there's a black setbacks lost or maybe fading in the last year beck's television show lost over a million viewers as a radio show isn't doing much better it was just dropped in big cities like new york and philly on top of that over three hundred advertisers who fled beck's fox news show thanks in large part to his somewhat argue psychotic ravings and validly offensive and at times even racist diatribes because the public finally had enough is glenn beck now just sour milk here digging deeper into this story james downie a reporter at the new republic joins me james welcome thanks for having me great to have you with us. back as bill following based on these is just you know generally speaking off the wall just totally off the wall positions is he any use to you know he sort of the shock jock and radio you know i sort of radio i was in shock jock but i you know i know what they are and. you know yo

that is what we have with fox news now. fox news is the propaganda arm of the republican party. and i think, you know, the republicans try to do anything they can to try and limit the from thehe true news individuals out in the countryside. and i think that's a shame. host: thank you, donald. we will continue on this topic for the next 20 minutes or so and then move onto other items in the program, including the budget, including the tarp program later. here is 1 twitter message. if you want to send us a tweet, our address is twitter.com/cspan. there are lots of different ways to get into the program. from one viewer, it's a free country. harry is on the line for democrats from philadelphia. what do you make of this npr bill? caller: the whole thing makes me sick. republicans in general make me sick. the gentleman from alabama really hit the nail on the head when he said that they depend on keeping their rank-and-file ignorant. that is the whole purpose of fox news is to keep people in ignorance. when i think about $5 million, y ou know, we spent $5 million on dick cheney's medic
