just last month, the new york times breathlessly reported that there were new sexual misconduct allegations that have emerged about brett kavanaugh's time at yale. yet, in the times's initial reporting, and i am only picking on the new york times because lee represents the new york times, in the initial reporting, the paper completely omitted the fact that the women woman who was supposedly the victim doesn't even remember the incident and that she declined to be interviewed on this reporting for this topic. that was a serious lapse of journalistic standards to omit these important facts that would have given readers a more fulsome perspective on the allegations themselves. and pre-sullivan rollback, i suspect they would not have been omitted. should the press be restrained? yikes. what a loaded question, it harkens back to images of reporters in handcuffs. let me be clear, i'm not in favor of imposing criminal liability for defamation. i'm going to write that down. >> (laughs) >> that's off the record. should the press be restrained also raises another important question, restrained by who

the same unnamed author of that september 2018 "new york times" opinion column titled i al part of the resistance inside the trump administration. the experts offer one person's view of what it's like to be in the administration. nbc news has not seen nor been able to confirm the contents of what's being reported tonight. the excerpts describe a ka baob the authors refers to. quote, president trump should not be shocked that wary aids and cabinet members saved his presidency. my colleagues have done so many times. he should be worried. we should all be worried that these reasonable professionals are vanishing. with every dismissal or departure of a level-headed senior leader, the risks to the country grow and the president is validated by a shrinking condrey of advisors that abet or encourage his bad behaviobehavi. we're already seeing the consequences. another section of the book goes into detail about how the president must be briefed quote it took a lot of trial error for west wing staff to realize there needed to be a change in the white house briefing process until that happened,

just last month the "new york times" breathlessly reported that there were new sexual misconduct allegationshat have emerged about brett kavanaugh's time at yale. yet in the misreporting, emily pickett on the nuke times because lee represents the "new york times," yet in the initial reporting on this topic of the paper record completely omitted the fact that the woman who was supposedly the victim of this misconduct doesn't even remember the incident, and that she declined to be interviewed on this recording, this topic. that was a serious lapse of journalistic standards to omit these important facts that would have given readers a more full some perspective on the allegations themselves. and under pre-sullivan world i suspect it would not have been omitted. so i want to finish today by coming back to the original question to the panel, should the press be restrained? yikes, what a loaded question. restrained harkins of these ridges of reporters in handcuffs. and let me be clear. i am not in favor of imposing criminal liability for defamation. you can quote me, that's not off the record.

fred smith and fedex firing back today, pointing out "the new york times" paid nothing about it way inal taxes on their own and just 18% in 2018 while also cutting capital investment, they say by "the new york times" by 50% to just around $57 million which is just a rounding error to fedex's 6 billion-dollar investment back to the u.s. economy. fred smith challenging sulzberger to a debate, i hereby challenge ag sulzberger publisher of "the new york times" and the business section editor to a public debate in washington, d.c., with me and the fedex corporate vice president of tax. we got in touch with "new york times" to fox business. fedex's colorful response does not challenge a single fact of our story. it is clearly a stunt a stunt and and effort to distract from our findings of our story. when you're paying nothing in federal taxes you should reinvest into the u.s. and provide american jobs as well. charles? charles: susan, before i come in my thoughts it could backfire. "new york times" looks like hypocrites, fedex and many other businesses have to be careful. for instance, when

one of "the new york times" reporters who broke this story is going to be joining us. we'll talk about the main thrust of this story and also the specific news that "the times" has broken here in this scoop tonight including their reporting that president trump himself spoke with vladimir putin himself about this russian disinformation campaign to blame the 2016 election interference on the ukrainians. it's weird enough to know that the american president is actively and repeatedly and enthusiastically spreading disinformation cooked up by the russian intelligence services designed to hurt us and another thing to have it reported that the american president has been receiving this information one-on-one directly from the president of russia before he then repeats it to the american public. that reporter julia barns here in just a moment to talk about that reporting and more. the overall crime here is eye popping stuff, right? that's literally the phrase used by veteran national security reporter david ignaceous at "the washington post."

at the times of the "the new york times" op-ed in september, though, "the new york times" went out of their way to describe them as a current administration official. is the person still a current official inside the administration? we don't actually know as the book is coming to press. only the book's publisher and "the new york times" editorial page department know who it is and whether or not that's still the case. they're not saying. but i'll tell you tonight we have obtained excerpts from this book, lengthy excerpts from this book. and i'm going to share a couple with you tonight. bottom line, and i haven't seen the entire book. i've seen the excerpts. bottom line the main point of that op-ed was that reassurance, right, it may be cold comfort in this chaotic era but americans should know there are adults in the room. we're trying to do what's right even when donald trump won't. it was an alarm, but the anonymous author was saying there are people here making sure things don't go so badly off the rails, the country is not going to be at risk in the way you might be worried about

leadoffth discussion on thi thanksgiving evening, annie karni, white house reporting with the "new york times," katie benner, justice reporter with the "new york times" and jonathan allen, our own national political reporter. annie, what reporting have you on the current state of the trump giuliani friendship, relationship for starters . >> well, there's two prongs to it, trump himself seems to be standing by giuliani now while thegi rest of the white house h wanted him thrown under the bus as long as he's been on the bus. he has been causing problems. they view him more as a friend who's freelancing, that's how they viewed him than a defense lawyer that's part of an overarching strategy. he has been causing problems for the white house. trump for a variety of reasons seems to every time he's asked him call him the greatest mayor new york city ever hades and a great lawyer, and it might just be that he's too close to lose at this point for trump but there's no signs that he's doing the usual i t barely know him stick with giuliani. >> katie benner, people were surprised at the kind of supplem

ultimately did not pursue these agreements because they were too complicated and he told the "new york timesthat he never received a penny. it is significant because we already know that the southern district of new york is already investigating giuliani over whether or not he may have violated foreign lobbying laws. this certainly raises more questions about rudy giuliani's involvement in all of these activities in ukraine. >> indeed. >>> rudy giuliani says he was joking when he said he had insurance if the president threw him under the bus over ukraine. now we may find out what he really meant because the president just tossed his personal attorney into the middle of pennsylvania with the bus heading straight for him. bill o'reilly asked the president about whether he directed giuliani's efforts to dig up dirt in ukraine. here's his answer. >> touyou have to ask that to r. i know he was going to go to ukraine and i think he cancelled a trip. rudy has other clients other than me. no, i didn't direct him. but he is a warrior. rudy is a warrior. rudy went, he possibly saw -- you have to under

an incredible i mean the essentially the the democrat pro-democratic corporate media like the new york times regards believes that fake news is only something a cover comes out of from trump and that everything they wish is the under lloyd truth but that's obvious nonsense i mean the new york times is filled with false statement pushing russia gate for example the idea that russia somehow russia colluded with trump to swing the 2016 election. facebook c.n.n. washington post m.s.n. b.c. published more than $8000.00 articles on the collusion scene until robert mueller issued his report saying there was no there was there was no collusion so facebook wouldn't dare try to censor that and of facebook did it the new york times would be screaming bloody murder the new york times wants facebook to censor material that the new york times doesn't like so it's it's obvious obviously highly agree just biased there's always the argument that whistle blows need to be cat anonymous for their own safety fear of reprisal but what about the argument and how much reprisal is there really in terms of a threat b

maggie haberman of "the new york times," i don't think they've had time to get through all of it as it was just crossing and the timing was significant as to what you are reporting tonight. what more can you tell us? >> sure, erin. it's significant because this briefing by the white house counsel and john eisenberg who is the main lawyer for the national security council took place at the end of august roughly two weeks before the freeze on that aid was lifted. so we know that the president was aware that there had been this whistle-blower complaint filed against him in connection with his actions regarding ukraine both in terms of this phone call that he had with president zelensky of ukraine on july 25th and the fact that the aid was frozen and those are the key details in the whistle-blower complaint and he was aware of it at the time when he reversed himself. >> and he was -- aware of the whistle-blower complaint and aware that they were trying to avoid this ever ending up with congress which, of course, it did, and then -- maggie, we know the time line here is two days after congr

new york takes a look ahead for us. despite president trump calling it the failing new york times, the company has been growing and addedxpansion has come at a time when local newspaper companies here in the united states have been laying off reporters, or shutting down presses. the question is — can the new york times support that investment with growing sales and subscribers? it aims to reach 10 million subscribers by 2025. more than double the current total. digital subscriptions have been growing. investors will be watching to see how many dollar a week readers stick around after the offer ends. time now for our daily look at some of the newspaper and website stories which have caught our eye. we'rejoined by adam french, senior consumer rights editor at "which". hello to you. you are talking about tea. is this something that is big in our minds at this time, getting up in our minds at this time, getting up at the time we do, but it is not as good as we hoped about whether there is plastic in tea bags. a lot of people may be tucking into a good cup of tea, my mum will be on her fourth or fifth and she likes to think

also from the "new york times" today, the paper is breaking a story on the president's personal attorney rudy giuliani. his dealings in ukraine, at the heart of the impeachment inquiry. the "new york times" reports this afternoon that as giuliani was pressuring the ukrainian government to conduct an investigation on joe biden and the 2016 presidential election, that giuliani was meantime also seeking hundreds of thousands of dollars in business from ukraine's government officials. so let's go straight to one of the reporters who broke the story. michael roughfield on the investigative team. thank you for jumping on with me. you tell me what you're learning about what giuliani was doing, sounds like without an employment contract? what was in the works for him with mr. lutsenko. >> we reviewed drafts and in fact retainer agreements that mr. giuliani signed with various ukrainian officials, one a draft agreement unsigned with yuriy lutsen lutsenko, top prosecutors in ukraine at the time and helping with the dirt-digging campaign with joe biden and giuliani proposed in this draft agreement

"new york times" reporter andrew kramer reported on pieces of this in an article the "times" published in may of last year. mark mazzetti, eric lipton, and andrew kramer updated the story, and it sounds like, yeah, what has happened in ukraine ahead of zelenski getting in there, the guy that had the infamous phone call with trump, what happened there with the previous president seems very much like a first draft of what president trump has been caught for in this impeachment inquiry now. quoting from the "times" tonight, "long before a telephone call with ukraine's president that prompted an impeachment inquiry, president trump was exchanging political favors with a different ukrainian leader who desperately sought american help for his country's struggle against russian aggression. near the end of 2017, just as the ukrainian government was trying to get final approval from the trump administration on the sale of javelin anti-tank weapons, the prosecutor general then working for the ukrainian president, petro poroshenko, began freezing cases in ukraine that were relevant to the mueller

but this was initially reported by cnn and is now a "new york times" report. he "new york times" to your point, john, it says sondland didn't mention this incident to investigators when they answered the questions in private. he'll be asked about it next week in his blockbuster hearing. he's revised his initial testimony once. what does it say to you that sondland appears under pressure to be coughing up more and more incriminating details about donald trump? how does that go into the available evidence in the bribery case? >> it's because sondland is on the side of the regular channel. you may remember jared wanted a channel to go with russia. they had this irregular channel and they wanted to move yovanovitch out of the way, and sondland for a whole month was free to do what he needed to do. and i'm suspicious after the testimony today that what yovanovitch was saying very carefully was the two associates of rudy giuliani who were interested in this liquid natural gas project, they weren't going to get past her front door. that may be an additional reason why

>> it is coming from the new york times. the new york times has been so reliable how could we disagree with that? the new york times will spin this anyway can to undercut what happened which was the fbi was spying on members of the trump campaign. that's why you have fisa warrants, carter page being looked at, george papadopoulos being looked at. i find that intriguing that they are spinning it and always gets back to who is leaking this stuff. i always find it interesting as well. shannon: our understanding is people are called and if they have been witnesses or part of this, their attorneys are called in, they are allowed to give reactions and we have been hearing about that process but they are supposed to sign nondisclosure agreements, we don't know if there is a violation, we don't know but it is coming december 9th, what is true and what is not. we just reported a short time ago that there has been a breaking development in the house democrats efforts to correspond mcgann from the white house counsel to come to the hill

"the new york times" is reporting someone in late august -- at some time in late august, white house told president trump about that complaint. shortly after that, in early september, gordon sondland had his no quid pro quo call with president trump. days later, congress was notified of the complaint and on september 11, the aid was released. as you can see, this latest time line makes it clear the president was well aware of the whistle-blower's complaint prior to claiming no quid pro quo, and prior to releasing the aid. >>> for more now on the flood of new reporting we are still getting about what the president knew, congressman steve cohen and member of the house judiciary committee who is taking part in next wednesday's hearing. >>> so, congressman cohen, given the fact each day it seems we learn more about what the president knew and when he knew it, are you concerned that this impeachment process is being rushed through before all the facts are known, more stuff may still come out? >> well, i think things will come out. things will come out for as long as he's president and aft

trish: we are learning there was an fbi lawyer, according to the "new york times," his name was kevin klein smith. he was a low-level fbi lawyer who clearly had no love for donald trump. we have a text we can share with you that the "new york times" discovered. talking about viva resistance. he talked about how the crazies have won. he said pence is stupid. he was fired by robert muler because of his biases. but he's the guy who allegedly was out there altering documents. a lawyer who ought to know better, for goodness sake. >> fbi agents are all mortified by this action. this speaks to the opposite of what the fbi stands for. this an attorney in the national security division of the fine's general counsel. he's work on some of the most sensitive matters. he took the oath of office every fbi agent had to take. trish: that's how the "new york times" describes him. low-level. he took the same oath. a low-level employee is somebody cleaning out my office at night. this is somebody with significant responsibility and that information was passed on to others higher up who made decisions th

president and that some of his testimony was based on reporting by the new york times the diplomat isdue to testify openly before the house intelligence committee next week. well for more on this we can now cross live to political analysts and investors charles alltel thank you for your time but let's start here how weighty charles in your view is ambassador taylor's testimony did we learn anything new from it. well it's a very sad thing to say in 2019 that when you're relying on new york times reporting about an event that you didn't participate in you're these days that's a very dangerous thing to do i think the reporting in analysis of this whole ukraine affair is shameful. save for the work by the intrepid reporter john solomon who goes back well before 2016 to try to trace the curious relationships among members of the obama administration ultimately including john kerry. and others and joe biden and his son in that country ukraine which you know all countries have corruption but ukraine is very well known for having corrupt influences so to say to pitch the story as it's being p

but the "new york times" reports this.he justice department's inspector general found no evidence that the fbi attempted to place. as agents investigated whether his associates conspired with russia's election interference operation, people familiar with the draft of the inspector general's report said. now the finding is one of several by mr. horwitz that undercuts conservatives' claims that the fbi acted improperly in investigating several trump associates starting in 2016. the blow to a one-time favorite trump talking point comes on a day of developments in the ukraine scandal that are calling into question donald trump's chief impeachment defenses and bringing into focus the appearance that the president was withholding military aid from ukraine despite multiple warnings from within his own administration that what he was doing might be wrong. another report in today's "new york times" reveals that trump was briefed on the whistle-blower complaint that ignited the entire ukraine scandal well before he finally unfroze t

"the new york times" writes a story, puts out a statement, puts it on twitter, puts it everywhere, he"the new york times" their report something wrong, hey, kettle, who is calling black here. doing the same thing as we are. what did you think of that? >> that is wonderful. we know fred smith is no shrinking violet when it comes to this sort of thing. it is great he is standing up for the private sector. here is one of the greatest entrepreneurs arguably in the history of the country. the number of employees employed by fedex worldwide is 425,000 people. i mean fred smith and fedex are supporting nearly half a million people, they have been doing it for years. so you got to ask yourself, which would you prefer? a world of private sector investment of the sort that fred smith represents or what "the times" seems to want, to transfer most of their corporate tax income to the federal government and let them make the choices. that seems to be the debate fred smith wants to have with the "new york times." melissa: not only at that, the premise of fred smith's business about expanding the ec

you asked him about impressions, and you said it, your sources are "the new york times." and he said yes. he said the president's goal of making this request was anything other than "the new york times." he said i have no other information about what the president was thinking. he's an ambassador. he does have sourcing in second and third hand people giving him information but for one of the key assessments he pinned him down on the fact that you got it from "the new york times." >> i don't know where he got it from, i thought he would tell me a person but his answer was "new york times." then he had follow-up questions and he reveals that his only source was "the new york times" and basically what happened was he was taking a quote from rudy giuliani on the creating presumptions and influences and trying to tie it to the president. your only source is "the new york times"? give me a break. >> so there's some second and third hand of testimony, and they say the, they are the ones, it's an invitation for the president to show up. but then they say you guys are the reasons t

howard: so as you said, john, giuliani told "the new york times" he turned over stuff to you.aine reporting was already done by that point. but is there an appearance that you're doing what the president's personal lawyer wants in. >> i did what i thought the american people wanted, give some visibility to what was going on in ukraine. i did it because i thought it was an important narrative. if you look at my career, i've always reported against the grain. when people say we were sucker punched on 9/11, i reported, no, the fbi failed to connect the dots. howard: right -- >> same thing. howard: so if the president and rush limb are ball, sean hannity are all promoting your work, are you concerned that it makes you look like you are an activist journalist for that side? >> i don't. listen, in 2001 the democrats were talking about all this stuff about george bush asleep at the wheel after 9/11. people see stories that fit their political narrative. i try to stay with the facts. howard: all right. the charge that the ousted ambassador, marie yovanovitch, gave him a do not prosecu
