yeah well i want to skip ahead having said i want to skip ahead to liberty university and jerry falwell he's the president very full jr he wrote a piece blasting the media for their reporting and their coverage of the school's handling of the coronavirus they said that peeps good students were coming back etc etc he wrote over the past few weeks the new york times c.n.n. the washington post politico and other left leaning media outlets have subjected liberty to baseless and relentless attacks and intentionally misled the public about our response to the coronavirus crisis they accurately reported cases of the virus in our campus community without verification and misrepresented the course of action that liberty university is taking to prevent the spread of the virus unfortunately for america the media are no longer fulfilling their obligation to maintain strict impartiality as their as a core tenet of their professional ethics the private americans are real news reporting from a reliable press so i think you hit it right on the head again specific to liberty university and in general. w

31st, "the washington post" claimed an "authoritarian power structure brought coronavirus to liberty university." and e.r. doctor even went so far as to tell "the daily beast," "if liberty reopens, people will die." except none of that happened. according to the school, not a single student or staff or on-campus n -- he joins me now. jerry, what is your message to the media and naysayers and other college presidents who are apprehensive about reopening? >> well, if you are a conservative college president, be careful, they will come after you. it was totally political, and it was so -- just so reprehensible how they did it. they spent days on campus, "the new york times" reporter eyand the other reporter, propublica, and even though there were "no trespassing" signs anywhere, never called to ask us forr any comment, never talked to our on-campus doctor, a doctor who worked for a across town, and finally called us on sunday, march 29th, at noon, and gave us until 3:00 to comment, and then they published. we were scrambling, trying to pull everybody together on a sunday. but that shows their inte

. >> sandra: this "wall street journal" opinion piece that you've written about liberty university definingging students back to campus, i will read a piece from it and have you explain. this is the education of jerry falwell jr. and how he made a good call. no student on campus tested positive and no staffer station on campus test positive but press accounts left a different impression. explain. >> first of all, liberty is always treated differently. it's an evangelical college jerry falwell triggers a lot of different emotions in different people. so he announced that the kids could come back after spring break. then three days later the governor said no gatherings of over ten and they had a lot of classes with people bigger than 100. there was a lot of social distancing and they took out computers in the computer lab and cleaned frequently used surfaces, a lot of common sense things. in fact, a lot of things that other colleges were doing. the difference is the press treated it as though, they picked up on a group of kids and, that's a graduate living in the community, and taking a class

here is the plan from one university, next. ] only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty. liberty.. liberty. ♪ >>> colleges and universities are being forced to rearrange class schedules for the fall sples er many are trying to resume and avoid a second wave in september and october. notre dame, purdue, creighton and university of south carolina will resume, but end classes before thanksgiving. creighton will go a step further, ending its fall semester before thanksgiving. i want to bring in the president of creighton. so tell us how you came to this decision, to allow students back to campus and they'll be leaving before thanksgiving. >> we're excited tower our student community and faculty and staff back on campus. we want to do so with all the safety and protocols as possible. we certainly don't think we can outsmart the pandemic, but we believe we are poised to have a safe environment. we anticipate a flu and cold season coming up. that would be confusing for any of us to try to understand who is sick and what do they have, so trying to end the semester about of that occurs, an

one last one for you, talk to me about liberty university, jerry falwell's operation.opened it up -- >> in a nutshell, during spring break, jerry falwell, jr. is the president announced that people would return to campus, the kids if they wanted to. and then he had to switch to online classes because governor northam banned gatherings of 10 or more. they did. all the press went bonkers, predicting this would be a petri dish of coronavirus. one guy said it if liberty reopens people will die. they just finished out the school year and it turns out no one living on campus, meaning these kids in the dorm or working on campus got, tested positive for coronavirus. there were a few cases but they were traced largely to the community. one kid living at home who hadn't been on campus since some staffers working either from home or off site but you would have thought, it is kind of like governor desantis in florida, just pilloried for this. it turns out they may have done something right. stuart: jerry falwell, jerry falwell, jr., he is covid denier. i think he blamed it on nort

liberties are to compromise public health. we will have a big loud discussion over good thoughtful interest. bobby chesney university of texas law school professor how to hit a balance that permits protecting the common good with too large of a compromise. but that is what we are good at. >> to add on to that, one important point this trade-off we try to make it much more to cody and controls in the past month it would not have done any good because we didn't have any test and didn't know anything. south koreans had elaborate contact tracing. so it is an argument it wouldn't have been any good. so the other thing i want to say is we do have real-time experiments going around the country with similar adjoining states with statewide policies new york versus san francisco we are having a real-time experiment and then we well know much more. >> what is the geopolitical as we try to grapple with what is happening and then doing what they are doing. and looking at china or russia, russia, who takes advantage of this? >> i am surprised america's adversaries haven't been more aggressive to find ways to use the moment not ju

think in this country where you had a universal agreement between liberals, conservatives, and libertarians like me that have been saying forever about civil liberties, and this moment is being ruined by people that have their own personal agenda, and this is a failure of leadership. i saw the governor's press conference today, and i could not believe that he admitted that he was not prepared. he called the national guard last night after they did no prep work. we are talking about wednesday, the city was on fire. he would think they would have some strategy especially with the national guard, but no, they didn't do that. they allowed it to happen again on thursday night. and what we are seeing right now is because of the lack of preparation and coordination, it may happen again tonight. >> sean: thank you. and by the way, mayor de blasio, where are you? where is your police department? governor cuomo, where are you? the governor in minnesota, where are you tonight? where are you? where are your police department's? we now have reports for new york, police cars on fire, and it's a huge fire apparently that is existing in there. we have other reports

students are very adept at this universal world, this is going to change how we deliver knowledge and i hope we are ahead of the curve, not behind it. >> host: a student of liberty and governance and democracy. there are a couple interesting questions here. katrina asks do you think this virus will have a negative impact on the democratic processes in developing countries? i presume that means the tendency for authoritarianism to deal with it and can united states mitigate this? >> guest: absolutely there will be authoritarians who try to take advantage of this and say i am able to control these circumstances, you will do better in a controlled environment, try to control what knowledge people get, there will be that. i really do believe authoritarians are not very good at governing and their people will see that. those of us who care about the spread of democracy across the world care about those people who want the same rights that we have should be preaching that message and we should be showing up civil society to help to deal with some of the problems these countries are going to face. and a lot of these places civil society is the last bastian against the

liberty file, good morning. we were to find a document, we still don't know what the national archives will find them at the universitylaware may or may not find the let's just say a piece of paper produced at some point soon that says tara reid went to the secretary of the senate and said allegedly i was harassed but did not say she was assaulted. does it make a difference legally? >> it will certainly make a difference politically. legally, this is moot because there is no statute of limitations civilly or criminally, so the import of this is is joe biden telling the truth, is joe biden worthy of the democratic nomination for president, is he worthy of the presidency? the version of these events as she described them the media in the past two weeks constitutes a criminal sexual assault, what used to be called about using his hands. she gave the version of that significantly down from that to the people to whom she gave the complaint, everyone is going to say she ratcheted up for a political reason and it's going to be is she believable? if she gave a different version within days of when she says this occurred, then
