howie: on the. >> if the fix is out.owie: of the 8 american reporters called on at the four pressers with foreign leaders, one was reuters, a local d.c. station, three were news stations owned by rupert murdoch. town hall and you. what do you make of all this grumbling that the president is trying to avoid major questions. >> the question i got was did the white house tell you what to ask? i don't know whether that's offensive or laughable. i don't think he should only call on conservative outlets. i think he should call on the whole room. i don't think there was this pandering when barack obama only called on left-leaning outlets and didn't call on fox news. no one was going on tv saying the fix was in. they are not used to "the daily caller" getting a question. i wasn't aware we were all supposed to go in there and ask the same question. what's the point of me being there if i'm going to ask what others are going to ask. during the first week trump was in office, i was the only one to ask about the muslim immigration b

howie: why wasn't it journalism?t's a serious charge. >> there were parts of it like the accusations of boycotting their network when we clearly offered for people to be con. con -- to be on. that's a big deal. howie: there has been a lot of media chatter about sean spicer. the washingtonian magazine said a form navy seal has been interviewed for press secretary. >> it's probably one of the most ridiculous stories out there. one of the reasons i find this story to be so absurd is one of the closing lines of the story was they reached out to the white house for comment and we didn't respond when i was the one who talked to that reporter an hour before her story posted and told her how untrue every part of that story was. the fact that she went ahead and published the story and also failed to mention that she talked to me is mind-boggling. i think a perfect example of why we are so frustrated with the amount of fake news out there. and reporters are not letting the facts get in the way of those fake news stories. howie

howie: we have about a half minute.ith all of this rhetoric about fake news and the enemy of the american people, can you see a lowering of tensions? are we looking at the next four to 8 years of outright hostility between the president and the press? >> i don't think so. president trump is a consensus builder. he's funny, he's self-deprecating. i think what you will see -- all he has asked for, he asked for a 77-minute long press conference was just write a story that's fair. it has to be fair, it has to be accurate, and it has to be truthful. he has good relationships with the media. he has been for accessible to the media than any other president in the history of our country. both on the campaign side and now as the president. that's something we haven't seen before. i hope he continues to do that. howie: corey lewandowski, thanks for joining us. up next. steve bannon says the media support a corporatist and globalist agenda. i'm only in my 60's. i've got a nice long life ahead. big plans. so when i found out medica

howie: coming up.hy many in the media compare donald trump to richard nixon when he fired the attorney general. howie: minutes after president trump fired sally yates, i happened to be on the arab predicted what would happen next. >> she takes her place in history alongside the attorney general who defied the president of the united states. >> since nixon, since the saturday night massacre, we haven't had a president dismiss someone because she disagreed with the legal analysis. howie: this involved a criminal probe of the white house over watergate. >> donald trump and sally yates did exactly what they should have done. howie: sally yates if she disagreed could have resigned. but she made a big political move and you are saying that's okay? >> donald trump was right to fire her. i think both sides did exactly what could be expected. let me read you a tweet from my former editor. she was setting herself up. howie: even the liberal harvard lawyer allen - alan dershowitz d sally yates was wrong. >> i'm n

i've got howie, capri, ford. he's attacking the media aggressively here, but some ways it's refreshing to see because the media has been attacking him so aggressively for three weeks and then some. in such a way they've given him no real breathing room, seems like objectivity has been thrown out the window and he's saying enough, i've had it. however, does that make the tension worse? >> it's a war, and the president's own words. this was extraordinary, trish. the most sustained and harshest attack on the press by an american president in our history by a lot. not even close. at times president trump was very effective in counterpunching and of course, he throws the term fake news around and calling out news organizations. other times he was over the top. for example, he criticize the "wall street journal" story today and said you didn't call me about spies allegedly withholding intelligence from him. the fourth paragraph of the story quotes a white house official who didn't give his name. it was almost like trum

howie: president trump its pounded over foreign policy and immigration. talk to kellyanne conway on where the white house has made mistakes. >> it's not just biased coverage. it's incomplete coverage it's all the stories not told. howie: two extraordinary leaks about the phone calls the president made to the prime minister of australia and president of mexico.

howie, i've got to ask you this. loved was when he opened up the press conference, and he said, hey, guys, dida miss me? [laughter] again, some of the first questions were about this thing, you know, bill maher saying that the president had been discussing classified information in front of guests at mar-a-lago. i mean, sean spicer turned it around, but that's where we began. the press is not letting up on their attacks of president trump. >> that's true, but i thought while it was a very contentious news conference, that the temperature has kind of been dialed down a little bit on both sides. i think sean spicer's becoming more confident in the role of white house press secretary. i think the reporters, while certainly asking a lot of aggressive questions or not, are not harassing him in the way of some of the earlier sessions. what really struck me, here we have a day in which the president goes to the african-american history museum, makes very forceful comments denouncing anti-semitism, and several of the questio
