roger ailes started his reign of terror as a media consultant who are these two former presidents and the concept of fox news emerged while he was working for the nixon administration ailes and his peers wanted to create programming that was ministration and then offer that up as an option to what he viewed as of course the liberal slanted media that was already all over the airwaves and was original concept was supposed to be filmed and aired straight out of the white house and written and produced to be the news of the documents are over three hundred pages long here i think this paragraph or one of the first pages of the treasure trove really gives you a gist of what else was looking for and it's actually titled a plan for putting the g.o.p. on t.v. news the following today a television news is watched more often than people read newspapers than people listen to radio than people read or gather any other form of communication the reason people are lazy with television you just sit and watch and listen but thinking is done for you so ladies and gentlemen i think we found the keyston

fox and m s n b c are probably already working on the concept as we speak can just picture it now roger ailes in a bunker under fox studios with a computer engineer working to take the best features of his most popular pundits and create one so pundit can rule them all all you need is a little dash of bacon kelly a touch of michelle malkin and of course what would the perfect pundit be without a part of and coulter i would imagine she'd be wearing leather boots because that her spew some anti obama venom rail against socialist immigrants just about everyone else and there you go actually great so much sense fox can just remove the middleman and roger ailes can just speak directly to the people you know or fox goes and i said b.c. must follow the law probably have something up their sleeve soon enough to take the whitney humor of jake and rachel the mix it with over the top earnestness of lawrence the anger of dylan today the elitists and of joe and voila you've got the best g.e. spokes person all over now of course we hear it r t you don't want to be left out of this dystopian fun we've also

else and there you go it actually makes so much sense thoughts can just remove the middleman and roger ailes can just speak directly to the people and you know where fox goes and us n.b.c. must follow the law probably have something up their sleeves enough to take the whitney humor of jake and rachel will mix it with the over the top earnestness of lawrence the anger of dylan annette the elitism of joe and voila you've got the best g.e. spokes person all i ever know of course is that we hear it r t you don't want to be left out of this dystopian fun we've also created our own perfect. her name has a lot of. hope you enjoy. ok time for happy hour on this friday and joining me tonight is archie producer jenny turtill and evan morris centaur a reporter and blogger for talking points not up thanks for joining guys happy friday. you know we've we've spoken a few end of the world series on the show before specially when everyone thought the rapture was coming but the theories never die down especially because we haven't gotten to two thousand and twelve yet and so now here's a new one that apparen

roger ailes has taken off the air people -- rick santorum, newt gingrich -- make a decision. if you are a candidate, you are not a commentator. >> we let donald trump play us for weeks, and now she's playing us. >> at the convention in camp the next year, we are not going to remember today, we're not going to remember rolling thunder. we are going to have a serious candidate, is serious election. it is likely to be either ramadi or pawlenty -- romney or pawlenty. >> what tim pawlenty is doing right now is a retailing, meeting people -- that is the connection point he has to make and what he has to build from. >> that is how scott brown did it in massachusetts. let's mention other names -- one of them, rudy giuliani, coming back. how did that florida strategy worked for him last time? >> that was the worst campaign -- this the only man in the last 16 presidential elections to that in all polls one year before the -- who led in all the polls one year before the nomination and did not get the nomination. republicans a lot of runners. rudy giuliani is squandered that. he showed h

fox news boss roger ails is considering trying to hire hillary clinton. they believe clinton looks unhappy as secretary of state and would get ratings. clinton has yet to respond. >>> you are now looking at the coliseum the building formerly known as the oakland coliseum. overstock.com bought the naming rights for the home of the raiders and the a's in april. this deal is good for six years. the name change becomes official tomorrow, and what a debut show it will host. u2 will light up the stage tuesday night and lucky fans are getting free tickets all because they're willing to part with a pair of shoes. nbc bay area's maryann favreau is altogether the hard rock cafe with more details. >> reporter: earlier this afternoon there was a line wrapped around the hard rock cafe here at pier 39. many of the people arrived here early this morning. they told me they considered it the deal of the decade. a pair of shoes for a pair of u2 tickets. melissa ryan wore these shoes as mate tron of honor in a wedding but will gradually trade them for u2 tickets. >> i came

that was not a team player i mean roger ailes is set up the political the propaganda wing of the republican party over there and back to often strayed from a. message he was hated by you know people like sean hannity hated him hate they have the ship went down i mean from i think three million at his heyday to two million not that thirty three percent decline it's still a whole lot to be really percent decline from his peak but i was an estimated thirty three percent decline from where he was that i mean they could have negotiated probably a better contract but i think at the end of the day he was just hurting their brand and so and he was really more interested in it and the funny thing is that they had no control over him because he had such a big online empire taurine. but he does the the radio show so i think they had less control over him than make they they do say you know a guy like hannity and i think in the end that's really why they parted what about the exchange i mean when glenn beck first started he was pretty optimistic and a little more sunshiny and he did sort of change and

i think roger ailes is a seen yous. >> you're not saying they don't intend to be fair, but -- >> they're shows. >> they get ratings. >> that's what they do. it's such a small box in the world. look at the top 15 cable shows. you know what the most popular show on cable is? "spongebob." >> i hear he gets a pretty good salary. >> last point. the eat it up, spit it out culture we now live in. sounds to me like as that has gotten to be a sharper, faster-moving, meaner culture, you're not that comfortable with it. >> i don't like it. i think cnn does the best it can with it. but this is -- when you're in a breaking news competitive business, there's a tendency, howie, you know this, to rush something. the demise of newspapers is one of the saddest things to me. so i question are we better off now with instant information than we were with edward r. murrow, huntley brinkley and the men producing news then? are we better off now? not so sure. >> we'll leave it hanging in the air. larry king. >> thanks, howie. always great seeing you. >>> up next, a lesbian blogger who wasn't. we'll talk to the
