or passing along mistruths, we should say that is not correct. >> the question i don't want to ask is is this effective. i think it probably is effective. but this is a show about media. so julie, what do you do? one option is to not quote him at all, is to not share if it is a conspiracy theory? >> if we chose to ignore what he was saying, that would almost be worse, we would be selectively keeping information or trying to keep information from the public and that's not our job either. what we do have to do in all of these cases is put as much context around what trump says as possible. it's irresponsible if we just simply put out his quotes or we just show a clip of what he says, we have to put in the political context, especially when it comes to things he says about hillary clinton, what message is he trying to get across to the public about hillary clinton. and then to jonathan and mike's point, we really need to put as much fact about these stories as we can. and i think one of the smartest thing we can do, use trump's words, use the questions that he's asked, his answers in ful

>> the key to that is continuing to shed light, continuing to tell truth, continuing to correct mistruths, and continuing to listen. >> i'm a fair man, kizzy. >> reporter: the slave owner in the movie. >> roots may have taken place years ago, but it's a political mirror to today. >> reporter: the other portrayed by a newcomer. >> you crave jubilation, revolution, oh, glory. that's what you came to see. >> there's not a single person who didn't feel it was important to get it right. it was never just a job. it was so much bigger than that. >> reporter: and from his watchful gaze as we spoke to the cast, burton seems confident the story is in good hands. >> reporter: here's a question i can't imagine anyone better suited to answer than you. why. why remake this classic? >> because there's a whole new generation of kids out there for whom the original was old, and was dated, and so in order for them to get the power of the story, it had to be retold for them in a language that they could answer. >> reporter: the power of this uniquely american story, the lessons learned and those still to co

>> no, i doesn't think donald trump has told all these mistruths. you have people like hillary clinton who have lied about her e-mail situation numerous times, the clinton foundation. i love this idea of the fact check if the fact checkers check democrat statements as well as republican ones. and i want to address bob. when hillary clinton was out outspoken in support of the iraq war which was a failure which isis is partly in response to the rise of isis. donald trump was against it when hillary clinton was for it. >> he was for it and then against it. >> and he highlighted it about osama bin laden. so he has wisdom in foreign policy that we've not seen from hillary clinton who's invaded three countries, essentially, libya, egypt, iraq, didn't leave any stay-behind force there. she's responsible in part with barack obama for the rise of isis. >> it is murky about when he decided he was against iraq. >> it was on the record. >> he was for it before he was against it. let's go back and look at the howard stern shows, not only about how he was for the

so what she said to the guy in west virginia was another hillary clinton mistruth it's not just about math mematical wa to the nomination. it will be a challenging mandate for donald trump to beat her easier. >> health care was in the democratic platform in 1948. universal health care. it took obama to get it passed even though hillary clinton and bill clinton had health care that was always there in '92 and '93. the platform fight can be there but it doesn't necessarily mean anything. >> what if it includes the superdelegates and getting rid of them and having a transparent delegate process. >> that's not going to be part of the overall platform that goes against donald trump. >> people don't vote on the basis of a platform. they vote on the basis of a candidate. it is going to be easier for hillary clinton to walk back her trade policy than for donald trump to undo all the horrible things he has said about mexicans, women, let's go on. >> and the west virginia comment in which hillary clinton said -- vowed she is going to put coal miners out of their job. she has been trying to walk
