fox and msnbc and cnn a green. if you read our nutrition label, you will see that we did not sit around and say, we think fox's too conservative, or msnbc is too liberal, or cnn is unfair to the president. we unflinchingly applied to nine criteria. i think if the caller looks at the nine criteria, the caller will be convinced we did this in good faith. host: sam is next in los angeles. good morning. caller: good morning. you are the best. something sparked my interest because i am a freelance t.v. producer, and i did a document reality series for rt. when you see that rt is secretly paid for by the russian government, it peaked my knowsst because everybody it is directly funded -- in light guest: everybody -- guest: everybody knows it who works for them, what people who see the headline on the twitter feed, facebook feed, or google search, do not know that this is paid for and brought to you by vladimir putin. they have no idea of it. caller: well, but that doesn't mean it is secretly paid for by the russians. they make no bones about it. i appreciate -- guest: it is non-transparently paid for. what "newsguard" ties to do is look

now it is you are either on fox or cnn. cbs is pretty good. for the most part, -- [laughter] now, and this is, going back to our discussion about the nature of media and is a part of is what is, it happening out there in the real world and the media is reflecting that. maybe it is the media. is of the things happening we are getting to craft our own media, each one of us, as a consumer. say,these out rhythms that you like this story, you get fed more along those lines. the same on facebook and twitter. toreinforces your instincts the point where you are getting positive feedback for getting deeper into your own trench and less available for contrary evidence. a technological thing changing our minds. >> jumping to yahoo! is what i did. i was part of a panel at the george w. bush library and at the end, a guy said, i do not know why the yahoo! guy is up there. that is crap. every time i go to your site, it is kim kardashian this. where are you going? com.going to yahoo. you are not going to the news. the regular site is driven by an algorithm a

but now you are on fox or on cnn not much of cross pollination. pbs is pretty good but for the most part. [laughter] but now it is just people and going back to the earlier discussion about the nature of media it's what is happening in the real world to reflect that a little bit maybe it is kind of but one of the things that is happening in my judgment we are getting to craft her own media each of us as a consumer so with all of these algorithms if you like that story then you get fed more along those lines with facebook and twitter it reinforces all of your instincts to the point you get positive feedback for going deeper into your own trench so therefore less available for contrary evidence and in part that is a technological thing changing our minds. >> i jumped to yahoo! news in 2012 to illustrate your point i was part of a panel at the george w. bush library at the end he was doing q&a is that i don't why the yahoo news guy is up there that's not real news every time i go to your site it is kim kardashian and i said okay. where you going? yah

fox and msnbc and cnn a green. if you read our nutrition label, you will see that we did not sit around and say, we think fox's too conservative, or is too liberal, or cnn is unfair to the president. we unflinchingly applied to nine criteria. i think if the caller looks at the nine criteria, the caller will be convinced we did this in good faith. host: sam is next in los angeles. good morning. caller: good morning. you are the best. something sparked my interest because i am a freelance t.v. producer, and i did a document reality series for rt. when you see that rt is secretly paid for by the russian government, it peaked my knowsst because everybody it is directly funded -- in light guest: everybody -- guest: everybody knows it who works for them, what people who see the headline on the twitter feed, facebook feed, or google search, do not know that this is paid for and brought to you by vladimir putin. they have no idea of it. caller: well, but that doesn't mean it is secretly paid for by the russians. they make no bones about it. i appreciate -- guest: it is non-transparently paid for. what "newsguard" ties to do is look at wha

and i always think that whenever i watch any of the stuff on fox or cnn or whatnot because it's such a disparity between how republicans and democrats run campaigns and that's what we're in the thick of right now. host: diana, bring it to celebrity activism this year and on behalf of democrats and republicans. caller: i don't think it really works. look what happened with hillary. hillary had every celebrity in the world endorsing here with the swangey parties in l.a. and paul mccartney, barbara triesant, everybody supporting her. she had her fireworks ordered and look what happened. it -- [inaudible] host: you think it was a bad idea for president trump to have this high profile discussion with kanye west yesterday? caller: no, it's not a bad idea at all. anybody who wants to voice their view is a good american. it's nice he's allowing people to come over and voice their view. he doesn't have to agree with everything but gives people an opportunity like he invited all nfl players who had a problem and who shows up? nobody? i think that democrats have hijacked the media and that goes

you may not like a particular stance or position that cnn or cnbc or fox is taking. there's a lot of folks from fox here. we're all journalists. when you cross that line and allow it to be permissible to attack journalists and this isn't personal because we have a lot of security and try to keep safe. when you go down that road, it becomes a permissible for people to do things. we're doing this on an international level with our failure to condemn saudi arabia for its press freedom and we're doing it on a daily level at these rallies where we talk about the press being the enemy of the people. i want to give a big shout out to my former colleague who is are working here. jeff said don't come into the building until it's clear. they're out here working. they are standing, on their phones. cnn will not get shut down because of a threat or a bomb or rhetoric. people can do damage. i think the conversation you were just having there about being something interesting about the story and none of the envelopes did anything bad. we don't know whether they are bombs or aren't

fox or fox news or or fox business or radio. all of them together provides a really important platform for him. you compare that to other networ networks, he's given to a few on cnn nbc. we know that fox is his favorite. he's not trying to communicate to the entire population, he's trying to communicate with his base. >> before we continue, i want to play a clip from his interview on "fox business," he's asked about russians meddling in 2016. watch this. >> do you think vladimir putin is getting what he may have wanted and i say this because it did not matter to the russians who won but it certainly matters that they wanted to create this division. >> the answer is yes because our justice department and fbi play right into the hands of the stupid investigation. people say i am not under investigation. >> it is tough and you don't want to scrutinize other jour l journalis journalists. he wanted trump to win and attacking mueller. >> it is interesting of these interviews or when trump calls in on the phone or like this on-camera sit down interview, there is a lot of news coming out of these interviews or when he goes on "60-minute" or challenging in ways that all p

fox or fox news or fox business or fox radio. all of them together, it provides a really important platform for him. other networks, a few to cbs and a few to abc and none to cnn. fox is his favorite because that's where his audience is. he is not trying to communicate to the entire population most of the time. he's trying to communicate to his base. >> maybe it's a good strategy on his part. before we continue, i want to pay a part of his interview. this is on fox business. he was asked about russian meddling in 2016. watch this. >> do you think in some ways vladimir putin is kind of getting what he wanted? it almost didn't matter to the russians who won. but it certainly mattered in that they wanted to create this division. it's harder -- >> the answer is yes because our justice department and fbi played right into the hands with a stupid investigation or whatever you call it. >> brian, you listen, it's tough, because you don't want to sort of scrutinize other journalists. vladimir putin said for himself he wanted trump to win and it allowed trump to pivot to attacking mueller. >> when trump calls in on the phone or this interview, there's a lot less news th

when they are bombarded with images from cnn or fox news, i think the media itself has led to this disgustingevel of hyper partisanship and i think we need leaders who are going to be better than that. >> i didn't vote for president trump. i'm against most of what he has done. my biggest concern is the impact he and other political leaders are going to have on th on a next-generation way of a generation growing up watching leaders who lie and belittle people and protect the press. by presidents for jimmy carter and ronald reagan, very different politically but we believe they were good people trying to do good for the public and it saddens me that we have a generation of people growing up with the leaders like we have today. while i didn't vote for president trump and i don't support everything he's done, the move of the embassy from tel aviv to jerusalem i supported and i think we see so much hypocrisy in the leaders today, people who voted in favor of that in 1995 like senator cardin as soon as the move came out of president trump's mouth, they were against it immediately. >> when president

are bombarded with images from cnn or fox news i think the media itself has led to this disgusting levelf hyper partisanship. i think we need leaders who are going to be better than that. >> mr. simon? >> i did not vote for president trump. i am against the most of what he has done. my biggest concern is the impact he and other political leaders are going to have a next generation. we have a generation of children growing up watching leaders who lie come belittle people, attacked the press, who bully. when i grew up my presidents were jimmy carter and ronald reagan. very different politically. we believed they were good people trying to do good for the american public. it saddens me we have a generation of people growing up with the leaders like we have today. while i did not vote for president trump and don't support everything he has done i agree with some things. the move of the embassy from tel aviv to jerusalem i supported. i think we see so much hypocrisy in our leaders today, people who voted in favor of that in 1995 like senator cardin, as soon as the move came out of president t

cnn or msnbc or fox news or any other network is the enemy of the american people. think he does need to do that. i think there are folks on the other side who need to tamp down as well. we are ricin attacks against susan collins last week. it's not very helpful who started it. both sides can say the other side did. i don't know that either side wants to. >> with all due respect, i think every one has to take responsibility for their own actions and own way they respond to this presidency. i don't condone anything that's happened to susan collins or ted cruz or anyone getting yelled out of the restaurant. it's clear when talking about this toxic political environment that it start with mostly with donald trump in 2015. he he began his campaign by calling mexicans rapists. he told protester he would pay their legal bills if they punched protesters. i'm still going. he's also. >> a gun to a knife fight. >> have you heard a politician. >> let me finish. have you every heard a politician other than donald trump say i'm so proud or give a cue dues to oods politician who

or derided. it is not just joe. obviously, fox news, cnn, msnbc, almost all of them. go find me a couple of journalists in this town that don't have disdain for progressives. i bet you can't do it. you think, note what do you mean, most of them voted for hillary clinton? that ain't a progressive. if you think you voted for hillary clinton and that makes you a progressive, you don't know what the word means. here is the difference between us and the right-wing. you know who broke that story? "the washington post," and it is a great story. credit where credit is due. especially for print journalists, they often do a fantastic job. unlike the right-wing, we don't want to tear them down. we want to build them up. we don't want to make their job harder, we want to make it easier. we want them to be better at their job. neutrality is not objectivity. it is the wrong standard -- if you call everything 50-50, you equate lies and truths, and that gives lies in an arms advantage. -- an enormous advantage. why do i think old media's process for -- old media is pro-astonishment?

fox, msnbc, cnn was founded in '80, of course. so you had this period where we did have, more or less with the kind of -- part of it also is that's the media world in which most of us grew up. we're accustomed to this idea of cronkite and the "new york times" and there was a conversation. >> we're clinging onto the idea that's what it should be. that's what the american way of journalism is. my question is, is it? >> no. it wasn't all that great. joe mccarthy knew how to manipulate that system. he would call a press conference for 11:00 in the morning because he knew the papers closed at noon. he would say i'm seeking a communist in demy name s moines. he would wait until 11:00 p.m., headlines across the country, redoubles effort. he rode that to power but television helped undo him. because when people could watch him, they didn't want that. he rose because of intense coverage and fell because of intense coverage. that's the mysterious cycle here. i think physical anything the world is going to get more atomized, we're going to get more voices and we have to hope there's a kind of chorus that checks and balances each other. >> i

or suspects are in florida. that means there is a wealth of forensic evidence to be gleaned. for example, fox news is being told the black electricians tape on the pipe bombs sent to cnn may have captured fibers or fingerprints. there also a appears to be an isis style logo on one of the packages but authorities believe it's more of a diversion then a connection to a terrorist group. and of the fact that none of the pipe bombs exploded and some may not have had viable detonators is prompting speculation that these packages may have been meant to scare and not to harm. here is how the new york police commissioner responded to that. watch. >> we are treating them as live devices, as you see the way our bomb squad detectives went in to cnn yesterday, this has to be taken with yet most seriousness. as far as a hoax device, we are not treating it that way. >> police also confirmed that packages sent to new york contained a powder, and all ten of the packages were sent in manila envelopes with six american flag stamps, typed address labels and a return address of florida congresswoman debbie wasserman schultz. today, too intended for vice president joe biden were intercepte

cnn is on all around the world. they pay to be on these tvs. fox -- gregg jarrett or somebody at fox just tweeted recently, oh, my gosh fox is on in a afrpt, which is unheard -- airport, which is unheard of. i don't know why fox doesn't give them competition for that, but cnn pays to do that. >> what about governmental institutions? >> well, look at the bureaucracy. >> we actually would do interviews with foreign media, like election night, i think you were on air and i just kept doing foreign interviews because of that, to try to balance some of the cnn bias, israelian tv. that's the whole image being done by cnn. >> but think about that. they are on everywhere, and they still can't break the top 10 in the ratings, think about that. >> ooh, very nice. very nice. >> but we love it that they have amy on all the time. >> [question inaudible.) . >> actually we do have foreign press, the japanese press is here. we need to wrap, though aren't we over our time. >> we are just about at the time. >> i wanted you-all to know, though, i have been asked a couple times about fox.

fox's top story. new york city police have taken the suspicious package found at cnn's headquarters or at least the newrcle to a special facility in the bronx. that's where nypd officers bring explosive devices to detonate them. you've been there, rick leventhal. >> i have. it's in the bronx. they have gun ranges there and a mock urban village. they do shoot and don't shoot drills. they bring explosive devices there for investigation and for detonation. we saw one of the vehicles transporting that device earlier today. the total containment vehicle. this is standard procedure. if there's a device, they put it in the big drum on the back to make sure if it blows up it doesn't hurt any within. they bring to it that facility. they bring it to an area known as the pit on the southern most point. they bring illegal fireworks and other ordinances and blow them up there. nine out of ten times the device isn't an explosive. in this case, they didn't want to blow up this device. because it's chocked full of evidence and tell them whether this guy was a professional, amateur, military training and really eventua

fox, msnbc, cnn. a lot of you are going to trump rallies or going to resistance rallies or protesting, and that's all good, but i'm just not sure there is an appetite to take the temperature down as much as i wish there were. >> do you all agree? the incentives just aren't in place to -- >> well, there's so many disincentives to take it down. just the state of our country is very divided. you can see that in the polling coming into the midterms in terms of both sides being extremely energetic for very divisive issues, and as she said, trump is not the sole cause of this. trump is the result of this. he's certainly taken it ten steps further. just this past week he was on the stump blaming democrats for the caravan coming from honduras and for democrats paying cash for these illegal immigrants which supposedly had middle easterners in the middle of the pack, coming across the border illegally. you know, that rhetoric obviously, those are lies, not true. we've never had a president of the united states stand at a presidential podium because though he's at political rallies, he's got that seal in the fr

cnn sucks. it's okay to think so or to think msnbc sucks or fox sucks. that's what you have a remote control for. it's not okay to imply because a media organization doesn't share your views its employees should face possible death from a bomb. here's what we know at this hour about today's events. between monday and today suspicious acpages were received at multiple locations in the new york and washington, d.c. areas, florida, and now possibly los angeles. the packages all similar in appearance contained possibly destructive devices. they were in manila envelopes and had addresses and six stamps. all had the return address of congresswoman in florida. this morning another package addressed to former president obama was intercepted in washington. we'll talk about why they were intercepted in a moment. former cia director john brenen was also targeted. the package addressed to him was sent to cnn's new york city studio. that package also included white powder. another package targeting former attorney general eric holder ended up being marked return to s

cnn view. they pay to be on these tvs. fox, greg jarrett, or somebody at fox just tweeted recently, oh, my gosh, fox is on in an airport, which is unheard of, i have never seen it. i don't know why fox does not give them competition for that. i have no idea. but cnn pays to do that. >> governmental institutions. >> well, look at the bureaucracy. >> we actually, we actually would do interviews with foreign media, like election night, i think you were on air, and i just kept, i just kept doing foreign interviews, because of that, because of that, to try to balance the cnn bias on israeli tv, french tv, et cetera, because that's not where your voters are, it the whole image being done by cnn and what they see. >> think about that, they are on everywhere, essentially, right, and they still can't break the top ten in the ratings. so think about that. >> oh, very nice. very nice. >> but we love it that they have amy on all the time. >> we actually, we do have foreign press here, the french press is here, and also japanese press is here. there is some

down in the new hampshire primary. 1996, you have fox, msnbc, cnn was founded in 1980, it began its move, and so, you had this. where we did have, more or less ... that is the media world in which most of us grew up. we are accustomed to this idea of cronkite, and the new york times, and there was a conversation. truck and we are hanging onto the idea that that is the way it claimed to be. that is what the american way of journalism is. the question is, is it? >> it was not all that great, joe mccarthy, knew how to manipulate exactly that system. he called a press conference at 11 am because he knew that the afternoon papers closed at noon. and he would say, i'm speaking to a communist in des moines. so the afternoon papers would flash, senator seeks read in des moines. he would wait until 8:30 pm, because the morning papers closed at midnight, and say, he is eluding me but i'm redoubling my efforts. headlights flash across the country, senator redoubled efforts. he wrote that to power. but television helped undo it. when people could watch him on the mccarthy hearings, they did not want that. and so his fall, he rose because of intense

or not? he charters a plane to albany the clock is ticking a guy is on the ground in new hampshire there was no fox but there was cnn one of the first realtime play out it is on the tarmac will he get on the plane and ride in the presidential race? he ultimately decided not to but it was a movement that allows clinton to become president there was all sorts of what-ifs if they would've chose him instead and look at how clinton won in 1882 the evolution of the democratic party i thought that was interesting how it started and putting things together but then i started to look at newt gingrich and looking at bill clinton as president how is he in position when bill clinton became president? so that is an incredible story he is running for his third time and then tells republicans he will lead them to the promised land even dick cheney calls him a pastor back then. and with the series of those political tactics against the democratic majority that collision gingrich the republican revolution the shutdown of 95 the clinton come back the emergence of hillary clinton and all of that just builds to the 2000 election the cl

cnn is back up and running. law enforcement told fox news, they believe its an individual or a group behind the packages because there are similarities. throw it back to you guys. melissa: kristina partsinevelos here to react,. homeland security official please, what strikes me, kristina went through a lot of facts behind this case. one thing strikes me none of the pipe bombs went off. is that significant? what do you make of that? >> yeah, ultimately could prove to be significant. thanks for having me here today. this is certainly something that the joint terrorism task force will be looking at, comprised of state and local officials along with all federal agencies moving very quickly as they investigate this. so certainly they will be looking how the mail system was attempted to be exploited here. and the makeup, composition of pipe bombs themselves which atf, alcohol, tobacco, firearms has expertise in. that will play a part in the investigation. however, i can assure you jttf will look at everything, eyes wide open here across the country as lead develop. melissa: do you think the fact that none of them wen

fox news, cnn, msnbc. boom. proof, gone. one is stood there and he talked to every single citizen journalists with their iphone or their flip phone or whatever they had. he did not care. he wanted to hear from everybody in that room. he listened to them and they would ask him questions but then he'd ask them questions. i watched this for two hours. and i thought, oh, this is different. i think i like this. that is the moment where i changed my mind about what i was going to do in the selection. you can note you have a president who cares that every person in this room is a citizen journalists and that every person in this room is heard. like i said, the procuration that came out last week and i don't even know how he knew even do that. who knows. that matters to like .00 -year-old by percent of the population out there. and i happen to fall into that category and he listened to me. he met my son and loves my son. there other mothers like me that want their children to matter too. i promise you he's listening. >> gina, there might be a great story. 2011 is time trump spoke at the back and lisa was the director of the back of

cnn sucks. they earned with the 24/7 hating of all things trump. if something happened to me or another fox news employee, they would be held responsible. with all due respect to a lot of people, i had for threats against me in my career than any one of them. real threats to me and my family and people that work for me. today during an interview with laura ingraham which will air in the next hour, president trump responded to the media's blame game. here's what he said. take a look. >> people went crazy over the weekend. >> look, he was insane a long time. you look at his medical records. he was insane for a long time. bernie sanders had a fan who shot a very good friend of ours, steve scalise. and other people. he was a total maniac. nobody puts his name in the headline, bernie sanders in the headline. >> sean: not only is the media's blame game disgusting. they vilify and say nothing about top democrats. we were like a lone voice here when democrats and their connections to some of the most racist, anti-semmites in america tonight. the national of islam leader farrakhan. here's what he th

there was no fox news channel, no msnbc, and only a skeletal version of cnn. nor was there social media, youtube, oronline world to speak of. opportunities to reach national audiences were scarce, but gingrich was inventing a brand new one. he was the producer of a nightly television show and also the star. even though you saw my face, that was all from the book. steve kornacki joins me now. i love the book. >> thank you. >> i read it. you can see from all my dog ears. >> i'm awed by that. >> what i found so fascinating was the way in which it set up where we are today, where we are in 2018 and why we're stuck in this partisan divide, this tribal divide. and it seems to all go back to 1979 when gingrich gets voted into office and when he suddenly starts using the c-span cameras to his advantage when nobody knew that the chamber was empty and he decides that i'm going to rail against the democratic party and i'm going to make this all about how we are different than them. >> and i think newt gingrich just in research and writing this book, he looms large in the question of how we got to where we are

cnn is too crazy. >> dana: i was going to say the difference with fox news is that if hillary had won, or ratings would be good. [laughter] >> juan: might be better, in fact. >> greg: i also heard brian stelter once threw ice cubes. >> jesse: call the fbi. >> greg: texas senator john cornyn joins us for the very latest coming up. this place isn't for me. that last place was pretty nice. i don't like this whole thing. i think we can do better. change is hard. try to keep an open mind. come on, dad. this is for me, son? principal. we can help you plan for that. than rheumatoid arthritis. before you and your rheumatologist move to another treatment, ask if xeljanz xr is right for you. xeljanz xr is a once-daily pill for adults with moderate to severe ra for whom methotrexate did not work well enough. it can reduce pain, swelling and further joint damage, even without methotrexate. xeljanz xr can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. serious, sometimes fatal infections, lymphoma and other cancers have happened. don't start xeljanz xr if you have an infection. tears in the stomach

friends behind you who are very apolitical, pbs, you go to fox, you go to cnn, you have to cut this part out of the tape where you can go to cnn or msnbc because i want my paycheck every week. [laughter] [applause] >> i honestly think -- yeah, this comes in waves, as i said before i know the admiral will agree with me on, this barack obama was a perfect gentleman, there wasn't uncivil bone in his body and presumably whoever whenever it happens replaces donald trump will not have this attitude that you and a lot of us feel is animating us toward the type of thing that we saw on thursday. but really the voters need to know about the people they're electing. they need to know the attitude, the big heartedness, the lust for power that exists in the mind and heart of the people they are voting for. >> i think it's going take nothing less than a change in the present leadership. getting so tired of watching and i said it on television, mcconnell and reed, just talking about each other. [applause] >> i said this -- everything i've said here, they've got to go. i mean, the leader -- they all have to go. it's not their fault. they need to

cnn, not fox. have you to bring facts to the conversation. >> record number of murders last year, yes or no?in our case we are the eighth largest city and 27th in crime. >> did you have record murderers? >> one at a time. >> what florida voters understand is that communities will experience crime. just in jacksonville earlier today -- >> thank you. >> six people shot. the question is what are we going to do about if, and what i'm going to do is take on the nra and hold them responsible for the rampant crime in our cities. >> the florida department of law enforcement is currently investigating sheriff israel who supports your campaign for the handling of the parkland massacre and he told me in an interview his leadership was amazing. do you think his leadership was amazing? >> no, i don't. i think there were failures on many sides, quite frankly. i think scott israel is independently she elected by broward county, and they are the ones who have a say about what they think about his job, but more importantly, it is an easy tactic to go after scott israel rather than actually taking on the folk

cnn is back up and running. now there is heightened security in the area, law enforcement tells fox news they believe there is a connection. it could be one individual or a group behind the packages because of the similarities like the excelsive postage and the color of the packages. liz: mike baker is a former cia covert operations officer. he joins us now. great to see you, mike. what are you look at that law enforcement is likely scrutinizing right now? >> this is a massive forensic exercise, and the local, state and federal authorities are well versed in this. the frustrating part for the general public is any investigation takes time. we are all trained because of speed of information to want immediate answers. that's not how investigations work. because we have unexploded devices, as has been pointed out earlier in the day by authorities. that's not a good thing for us. anything from the type of explosive used to fingerprints to a piece of hair. you start tracking back and looking where were these items bout, where were the wires bought, where were the envelopes purchased. all these things come together but it takes time. liz: since the packages

or fox news pundit? let's talk about it. i went looking for the president in charlottesville friday. but he started the day at 3:14 a.m. by bashing cnnparent bomb addressed to cnn was found in the mail nearby here. the president tweeted again putting bomb in kwoelgs, down-playing what he called this bomb stuff and worrying about what he called the gop's mid-term chances. those are the actions of a fox talking head, not a president. so i included charlotte. when i reflected on my coverage of the 2016 election i regretted i had never been to a trump rally. i thought i should have experienced it for myself. well, as you know he's had lots of rallies this month, so i had booked this before the mail bombs. walking into the arena a big screen tells you the sign-up for the real news by signing up for twitter and facebook. but by talking to the rally goers i could tell many of them were already signed up. they knew the lyrics to his songs and sometimes they sang along. this is video i shot from inside the press pen, and it really is pen. you can see cnn, fox, nbc working and all the camera crews on the riser and then thousands of goers all a

cnn, like msnbc, like fox news. it does not give any of us the right to use violence against people we don't like or who don't shares. i wrote this yesterday. journalism exists to bear witness, speak truth to power and challenge inaccuracy. it's not about positive or negative coverage. sentiment is irrelevant to the search for the truth andectability. coverage that is legitimately negative in pursuit of the truth is not biased. joining me now is columnist for the boston globe. and again i'm going to make the same apology to you before i get to you because i'm now watching i think the nypd commissioner james o'neil is at the podium. that's john miller next to him, chief of counter intelligence. james waters is there. i'm going to have to ask you to hang out for a second while we listen to this. >> all set? all right, good afternoon, everyone. before we start i just want to acknowledge our law enforcement partners joining us here today. bill sweeney, assistant director in charge of the new york fbi office, and sean benedict, special agent in charge of atf field division, and philip bartlett in charge of postal inspec

fox news alert. investigators are working to determine who was responsible for targeting high-profile democrats and cnn with suspicious devices. the nypd it says they appeared to be from the same person oron play out? let's go to senior correspondent rick leventhal with an update. rick? >> emily, whoever made these devices only had to make one very small the mistake to get caught. it could be a fingerprint, spike of dna, fibers or traceable components. while the nypd may have been the first to respond, the fbi will take the lead. its primary focus is preventing and investigating terror attacks and, of course, this device, described as a pipe bomb, could be described as a terror attack and appeared to be a legitimate threat, which is why i was transported by the nypd and a special truck known as a total containment vehicle to a facility in the bronx that is used to investigate and detonate suspicious packages and unexploded ordinances. in this case, they do not want to blow this up because it is evidence. the fbi will take possession and likely move it to quantico or they will examine every inch of it. what similarities does it have, not just to the other devices sent this week with devi

neil: why should it be surprising someone at cnn said something positive about the president or agenda, why should it be surprising if someone watches fox news says something critical about him? we live in such an environment it becomes like professional wrestling. >> i saw during the financial crisis i saw people attacking me as pumping up the banks. one idiotic writer at "vanity fair," brian bureau, blamed me for and other people taking out bear stearns. it was that dumb of a piece. neil: you did in fact take out. >> i did not. they took themselves out. i just chronicled it all the way down. neil: you remember, we used to call you mr. melt-down. >> really? neil: i did. charlie and i are joking, pontificating as president arrives in orlando. just be fair and balanced. i do three hours a day, news channel and business channel. charlie is on a gazillion hours. we have all these news networks and business networks it is not monolithic. you don't have to be a never-trumper or always trump per. you know what that is, and adele i'm still waiting. i don't see the phone ringing. we'll have more after this. (vo hand) can we talk? you know i mis

fox news, cnn. some of them talked to msnbc. boom. poof. gone. all of them. except one. he stood there and he talked to every single citizen journalist with their little iphone or their flipflo-phone or whatevere heck. he didn't care. he wanted to hear from every voice in that room. and he listeneded to th ed ted . they'd ask him questions then he'd ask them questions. i watched this for two hours. and i thought, oh, this is different. i think i like this. and that's the moment where i changed my mind about what i was going to do in this election. so you can know, you have a president who cares that every person in this room is a citizen journalist and that every person in this room is heard. like i said, that proclamation that came out last week, i don't even know how he even knew to even do that. who knows to even do that? that matters to, like, .0005% of the population out there. but i happen to fall in that category and he listened to me and he's met my son and he loves my son. and there are other mothers like me that want their children to matter, too. i promise you, he's listening. >> so, gina, that reminds me of a really great trump story i want to tell real quick. 2011, th

cnn view. they pay to be on these tvs. fox, greg jarrett, or somebody at fox just tweeted recently, oh, my gosh, fox is on at an airport, which is unheard of, i have never seen it. i don't know why fox does not give them competition for that. i have no idea. but cnn pays to do that. >> what about governmental institutions? >> well, look at the bureaucracy. >> you got to talk to people working there. >> we would actually do interviews with foreign media, like election night, i think you were on air, and i just kept, i just kept doing foreign interviews, because of that, to try to balance some of the cnn bias, on israeli tv, french tv, et cetera, because everybody is saying that's not where your voters are but it is the whole image being done by cnn and what they see. >> but think about that, they're on everywhere essentially, right and they still -- >> they still lose. >> they can't break the top ten in the ratings. think about that. >> ooh, very nice. very nice. >> but we love that they have amy on all the time. >> we, actually, we do have fore

either republicans or democrats or -- and probably more importantly, there is more money even being made in the media, where these so-called news organizations like cnn and foxre not news organizations. they are entertainment channels is their audience extreme right and the extreme left. those are the people that are going to buy survival goods off fox news and -- my overall point is what the american people need to realize is they need to start seeing through not just of the rhetoric -- it is not rhetoric, it is sensationalism to drive their fear to motivate them to either prepare for the worst or againsta specific party the opposition force. that is all this is. host: that is tom in virginia. james on facebook rights nomura attack ads. all advertisements focused on the candidates, what their goals would be if they got elected. we will be talking more about political ads in our next hour this morning, talking about the ads that have been -- gone viral. getting your thoughts on what you think are good and bad campaign ads. in this first hour, asking for your suggestions on ways to make the political climate less hostile. ray in north carolina, your next. rid
