>> oh, at least, howie. i think what we're seeing here is news producers are looking more and more at the number of twitter followers a celebrity may have when deeming how much coverage that celebrity should get when they get in trouble. justin bieber has more followers than the entire population of canada and 7 million more than the leader of the free world, president obama. and one more point, in four weeks, the oscars comes on. that will be on one network, abc. 40 million people will watch that awards show. tuesday night, the president has his state of the union address on at least 15 networks. when you combine the audience of all those networks, it will still be only 33 million, 7 million less than the oscars. celebrities drive ratings, howie, that's the bottom line. >> but that all sounds like because somebody is famous and has a lot of twitter followers we have to go nuggets over everything that happened to them? >> there's a lot of naivety. you figure not only are the fans going to tune in or click on

howie is wrong on one sense. this is not a question for chris christie. he is in the barrel.e doesn't get to decide when they turn the barrel off. he has to be in the barrel and rolled around by the media. this is good question. we have a gigantic deal in washington, d.c. new information about benghazi. something pops on the pages of "wall street journal" about the irs investigation and "meet the press" devotes 26 minutes out of its hour, less than an hour to this particular issue and, look, the closer you are to the george washington bridge the more likely if you work in the media that you think this is a big deal worthy of considerable attention. but the further you get away from the george washington bridge, for most americans this thing is already over. something bad happened. the governor of new jersey stepped up and said, mistakes were made and i'm firing the people responsible for them. and that is it for most people. bill: get back to that in a moment. colleague from mind over the weekend i want to hear the chris christie thing, the more damaged he is helps my person,
