howard kurtz is with us now. would you react to that?d. >> you know, stuart, i was on the air yesterday. i was flooded with memories. i thought the wording that you just cited they are was too harsh. i have to say, it is not just to be 100% going by someone's life. we talked about the bad rap or bad is that nancy reagan got about the designer clothing she had gotten. what a contribution this woman had made. >> also dwelling to some degree. what kind of person was she? i do not think that that was brought out very well. i know that the ownership of the washington post has changed. amazon now owns the washington post. has it changed? he is now the new owner. >> the publisher is fred ryan who has a long association with the reagans and the reagan foundation. i would say, that obituary, then on that was probably written a couple of years ago. >> there was a debate last night. anderson cooper tried to ask. this came up in the debate last night. watch this. >> do you invest the investigation to be wrapped up soon? talking about your e-mails ev

howard kurtz is with me now. to comment on this.we've been watching this happen last week and this. you know, the anger is just so high in this country right now, and trump is both tapping into this anger and also, as we heard from some of our guests tonight, causing some in response. >> well, trump's whole candidacy has been fueled on the anger and resentment of many of the republicans voting for him. it's ridiculous to say he hasn't had hundreds of tough interviews, but as we watch these pictures, it reminds me of what happened in chicago last friday night when trump had to shut it down. i think to some extent, i have been surprised he hasn't toned down his language a little bit. at the same time, i think it's unfair to blame the candidate when organized protesters show up with the express purpose of shutting down one of his events. i think the media's focus ought to be as much on that as the candidate's rhetoric. >> absolutely. these guys have a right the speak, they're running for president. and people that go to listen to him,

maybe it does pose howard kurtz is here.eech which the president is going to make this evening as an award ceremony i believe. he's going to call it the media saying it is this partisanship in your smiling. >> president has been in the sun for a long time. there is more partisanship. there are more people who seek out websites, for example that agree with their point of view. but where he kind of misses the point is he has the biggest megaphone in the world and his sometimes into fault into blaming the media, sometimes he specifically named fox news race had trouble getting things done. stuart: i would say the vast majority of the media, the majority of the media sees his point of view, support the president, is mildly left of center. where my going on? elect barack obama hasn't gotten much done more particularly he seems to be completely failing when it comes to terrorism and isis. it doesn't matter. a president has to lead and he can't plan cheerleaders to get it done cares if living on the international page. now we've be

howard kurtz is with us. he joins us every monday morning. welcome to the program.ying that donald trump, it is trump's fault. >> i think that the story is definitely being tilted. going to chicago with the point of shutting down that rally. i think that it is fair to examine trump's words. seem to not try to halt the punching and some of the scuffling that has gone on in his rallies. the other accounts that i have seen, seem to put trump at the center of it as if he is causing it. >> i think that there is a double standard. he has been giving interviews. he has been giving a very respectful audience. they have been very respectful to him. i feel if you rushed hillary clinton, he would be a vio protester. i just see a double standard here. >> i do not think that there is a question about that. doing harm to the candidate. that troubles me. commentators on ms nbc saying she believes that donald trump wanted this confrontation in chicago because it plays to his strongman philosophy. trump is being negligent and should do a little more to tone down, another thing to sa

[ laughter ] >> the way illinois works is it's mostly by congressional districts. so what we're looking for now, as the more conservative part of the state comes in and there's more coming in for ted cruz can he take some of these delegates away? if donald trump rides across il illinois tonight and wins all those congressional districts, this is a blowout win for him. that's 69 delegates. enormous. so that's big for him. but i would say this. you see now tonight the hardening resistance the never trump, the hardening of that resistance.+j >> where? >> you see how the splits are going in the counties and the state, and you see how in north carolina for example, cru
