the new york -- excuse me the times of london has never made him a cent. the new york post which he's own since 1977 never made him a cent. he created -- it's like a little bit of myth. he created the day liberalized. which is a tablet-only experiment. at lough people who really understand digital media and how people consume media and social media thought it was misgot from the start. i thought there was some real mistakes. statement i thought it's like bell lab. he's trying something. that was something he lost many tens of millions of dollars on and shut it down as a geeze chiewr to shareholders he understood that he couldn't just do erg he wanted. he had to figure out how to do things. they ultimately weren't able to figure out whether they wanted it a walled garden that would be like a magazine that you couldn't do more than physically hand to somebody else. or whether would be a way to share it online to try to dpraw people in. if you need to charge somebody, you need to charge them for it. >> a confused presence to me. i didn't know whether i read or not. >> people i

the new york post presented the story this way on its front page with a picture of former new york cityberman accused of defrauding the government of over $175,000 by claiming that he suffers from depression and panic attacks after working at ground zero on 9/1 1. but according to the new york post, he was never actually at ground zero. the prosecution, of course, probably intends to use this photograph of glen lieberman riding a jet ski to prove he is not disabled by mental illness. but i don't know. his defense lawyer might just use that very same photograph to prove that he really is completely mentally ill. joining me now, the chief investigative reporter for wnbc new york who has been following this story. this is a -- i mean, we've seen small versions of this. this is a gigantic version of this type of fraud. >> this is just the beginning. the 106 people charged in just the last 24 hours. there could be as many as 900 others involved in this alleged scheme. so this is just the beginning. all former police officers, firefighters, you name it. all allegedly went to the same, two law

c-span: when you think about those days at the new york post and stories that you've covered that have memories, name a couple. >> guest: oh, gosh. i remember covering the first hearings that became so famous about corruption in the nursing home system in new york city and how badly elderly people were treated, which made a huge impression on me. i remember doing a profile of sean connery and not being able to get a word out of him for almost the entire interview and then going back and rewinding my tape and opening the tape recorder and finding out that there was less than that on the tape and having to write a piece about how monosyllabic he'd been and how overwhelmed by his sex appeal i'd been. i remember covering jerry brown during the 1976 primary race, which was a great introduction to the craziness of politics for me, and just your run-of-the-mill murders and mayhem in new york and just learning how to get around, learning how to deal and learning how helpful my colleagues could be. it's funny, i still work with people in new york city who first worked with me when i was 19 or 2

in one the "new york post" called a ripoff for the history books. but don't focus on that.us on how they haply screwed us and they're fine colleagues who are held in high regard by us. like this ex-cop. featured on the cover of today's "new york post", claiming that he suffered from depression but apparently not enough to keep them off jet skis. this man claimed he was so distraught that he couldn't leave the house. but apparently he could off the coast of costa rica. he took advantage of a disability program even though he was well enough to reportedly teach karate at a martial arts all. dozens of cases like these and many thickening cases le these. and i still can't get out of my head how he shamelessly exploited 9/11 in some sort of traumatic stress is just made up. they were all in the same bogus claims, pocketing up to an extra $50,000 per year and we ended up paying foor. and investigators say that up to a thousand people were involved. and again, think about that. $400 million and that is just one city and one investigation. one sam. if you don't think this is happen

officials here say they expect nearly 400,000 people to visit the area before he big game, and the new york post newspaper is reporting nearly as many times in times square that's do for new year's eve. across the river is the home of super super bowl xlviii. it's now on lockdown, no one can get in or out of the stadium without credentials. this is manhattan right here, and of course, brooklyn and queens. this is hoboken, new jersey, and this is the sports complex at the meadow lean. this is the izod center, the meadowlands racetrack, the old stadium where giants and jets used to play. here's metlife stadium. this where is our two big teams play and where the super bowl is going to be. look around, lots of parking lots. no tailgating. lots of roadways roadways and sy waterways. river nearby, the city not far. the new jersey turnpike here, all of this area to be cordoned off in a security perimeter, and it's going to be an enormous challenge. one of the biggest computer zones in the nation is right here around the stadium. this traffic is awful on a good day. that will not be a good day. lots of

"the new york post" perhaps chief among them. i want to read part of what he said.esn't mention that in 1952 ireland both mother and child's life would have been ruined and the nuns are giving both a chance at a fresh start that both in real life enjoy. this is a diabolical film straight up. what's your wre action to that kind of criticism? >> well, i think if t"the new york post" had given me a good critique, i would be more worried. i think kyle makes two mistakes. one, he says that some of those homes provided somewhere for these destitute single mothers back in the 1950s and '60s. but the reason they were ostracized by their families and their communities was because of the very church that he claims to look after them. so the church may have been part of the solution, but they were also part of the problem. he doesn't mention that. >> because of catholic dogma saying you shouldn't have out of wedlock sex. >> because of distorted catholic dogma and distortion of the catholic faith that let's those situations happen. and also to say it's an attack on catholics, i

that is the new york post. little bit more from that editorial, americans are used to politicians on both sides of the aisle who have one set of standards for themselves and another for their opponents. on thursday, christie pledged something different. not how christie handled his presser or what it means for a presidential run, the question is whether he told the truth to his citizens and can show with his actions what taking responsibility means. unloadsyork daily news on governor christie. chris christie's one hour 47 minute self pitying. contrition is a brazen cover-up that threatens to unravel his political career. the governor scoured for words of apology, regret, and played the victim and destroyed the aide who supported a supporting role for the george washington bridge revenge plot. he needed blood. he needed to express his outrage to the public so he drew it from bridget kelly. did lie, although it seems incredible that anyone anld attempt to deceive intense emergency inquiry. roadkill of kelly while

and the new york post, republicans read, chris in a jam. and now you have a lot of people frozen in place who might be incollide to say, wait a second. chris christie looks like a straight shooter, and he looks like the republican for 2006, and let's put our money there. so what chris has to do is satisfy a couple of things in the news conference. he has to make sure that the strategists buy him time, and he has to come up with a plausible story to satisfy the grand jury in new jersey, paul fish man, who has the same job as chris christie did, as prosecutors. and they will be testifying, and chris christie has to testify. and if any one of them comes out and says, chris christie with a wink and a nod told me to do this, then the story gets held up and it's worse than now. >> and it's a national story as well, because there are those inside of the republican party who did not the chris christie, because he's considered to be more democrat than republican. >> there are people supporting marco rubio and paul jindal enjoying this, because they'

>>the new york post reports prices for suites are going for $1 million.why are prices rising so quickly? >>i think it's a combination of things. the fact that the nfl keeps 25% of their tickets for their own folks but what happens with a large number of these tickets is they end up on the secondary market. these secondary folks come in and they package these tickets. >>those packages include, limo rides,and pre-game festivities.. is your goal to get more tickets away from the corporate sponsors and thesecondary market and into regular fans hands? >>what would be fair is if the nfl put restrictions and said that those tickets that go to the individual teams would have to be sold to the general public in some fair systembe it a lottery system or otherwise at their face value. >>thank you for coming on our show today. >>thank you so much for listening. wall street anticipates a "seahawks" superbowl victory. the "super bowl indicator" is a market superstition that states when an american conference team wins -- the market will decline in the year ahead.if a national conference team wins...t

. >>> "the new york post" front page this morning was a blaring headline, "giant rip-off." in what could be a cautionary tale for anybody who collects sports memorabilia collectors, all the way down to some of the better baseball cards in the pack, a lawsuit filed accuses the new york giants of roughing up helmets and jerseys to make them appear game-used while the players in some cases kept the real thing. it even alleges that football jerseys are taken to a new jersey dry-cleaner to get them appear worn. the giants today says the suit is completely without merit and they intend to fight it. >>> it's maybe not a surprise but interesting to learn that most of the american people now regard both of our most recent wars in iraq and afghanistan to have been a failure for this country. in a new pew research survey, 52% said neither war achieved its goal. a total of 2.5 million americans in uniform have served in one or both wars since the start. >>> if you're old enough to remember the ad campaign, you remember the airline that called itself the wings of man. eastern airlines m

side from tom brokaw in the new york post which were were two of the letters went the other two letters went to you know tom daschle will an attic lady and if you go back in time to around the time when the anthrax letters were received which was sort of in mid october. that was basically the around the time when they when they were trying to push through the patriot act they were trying to fast track it through congress and patrick leahy and tom daschle were two of the most vocal opponents of the patriot act so it's kind of fascinating that you know that the government has tried to pin it on the anthrax attacks on this lone nut who decided to use for some reason send it to the two most vocal opponents of the patriot act it's very strange. that. as her mentioning before the timeline the way that you lay it out it really just shows these media people and government people just contradicting themselves over and over again it shows how foley. i'm pleased that the media wasn't selling the narrative talk about how much disinformation was purposely in place to link iraq to anthrax. oh my god

new york paper is celebrating. look at this. this is the cover of the "new york post," a-dios.nd. >> so clever all the time. a-rod has been shut out of major baseball's entire 2014 season if you haven't heard. 162 games. not going to be eligible for any post-season games. rodriguez continues, though, to deny claims of drug use and he vows he's going to keep fighting this thing. andy is here with more. so nobody was really surprised by this decision. were they surprised he's going to keep fighting it? >> that might come as a surprise. taking it to federal court is the extreme circumstance. a-rod has been expecting this decision the whole time ever since he stormed out of the first day of the arbitration hearing. he went on to a new york radio show and went off on the yankees, major league baseball and everybody. a-rod will continue to fight this thing. he'll take to it federal court. in a statement he released yesterday he said the deck has been stacked against me from day one. this is one man's decision. that was not put before a fair and impartial jury, does not involve me hav
