but the "new yorker" is not the "national enquirer." we're not going to publish -- you don't publish a story that has a profound impact on people and children when you don't have proof and i didn't have proof. i basically had people whispering to me. but they didn't have the courage or they were too afraid to come public with it. might it have had an effect? yeah. do i think about that? of course i do. but i think about journalism and i think as a journalist i think the decision the new yorker made was the right decision at the time. even though -- you know, do i have questions whether it would have had an impact? yes. but our job is not -- means and ends matter here and using foul means to get to a good end is not the way to go in my judgment. >> we live in amazing times. ken auletta, author of "frenemies" thank you so much for joining us. >> my pleasure, christiane. >> as for the full story of why ronan farrow couldn't get his exclusive broadcast on nbc, he tells us that will be the subject of his next book. that's it for our program

i wrote my first article for the new yorker in 1992. nd at the same time it was offering me a contract and this has never happened before. we really needed the money and the reliable income. and they flew me up to new york for their 25th anniversary dinner. i took the afternoon. she said would like you to write more for us. i've been offered this contract i have to take it. two hours later i have an offer from the new yorker. back then you go down to the basement between the bathrooms. while, if that's what you want. do you even know me at all. then i went back up to the dinner and found i was not invited to the dinner. i was invited to the drink after. i was sitting in the bar outside the dining room would also not been invited to the dinner. we are sitting there getting the feed of the dinner through closed-circuit tv. and then suddenly the door to the dining room burst open. i'm blacking on the name. he's on his shoulder. seriously ready to be. what's going on. he just insulted him. i have a photograph and i took it out in the backyar

all the things i needed to do to be a successful journalist, write for the new york times or the washington post or the new yorker and a political reporter. and check off everything. the question is do i stay? i don't know how all these years i was able to pass. the huffington post, i worked there, or the philadelphia daily news. no one checked the papers. i was lying the whole time. i had to lie to get jobs. >> host: you had to check the citizen log. >> guest: i have a lot of lawyers. do you start admitting your committed fraud? that is the truth. if i'm going to do this and be honest i have to be honest. >> on a personal level did you walk around with a sinking feeling in your stomach 24/7? >> like edgar allan powell's telltale heart. i thought it was one of those things, either someone would help me or i was going to just blurt it out. at the iowa caucuses huckabee won by 7. mike huckabee was actually very friendly to immigrant rights as governor of arkansas and when he ran for president he was really conservative about it. i had a few minutes of this interview and i thought i would out myself. i thought i was

the editing at the "the new yorker" is fantastic. very careful but every word, every come marks every everything. one question i got on the last story, she wondered why it had to be in pigeon english, which is interesting because i had done this early story that was irish, and so it's not like i use the voice all the time. only the second time since 199. but of course since 19 -- between 199 and now the idea that people are actually writing -- speaking another language and it's been represent at english has become very much better established than in 1999 because of ian lee. we understand our characters are chinese but they're just speaking english. but i held firm with the pigeon english and i wrote about is, this q & a thing for the know,er and "the new yorker" because for me there's something poignant about the pigeon english. i myself have had the experience of trying to explain something in chinese so i know exactly what it's like to be able -- be trying to convey to somebody -- someone else something that you try to convey somet

approaching kapan from the kapan river we realized that the new yorker john lloyd stevens left an impeccable account of the sunken city when he saw an eight hundred forty one. if i can the ruins to a ship wrecked at sea the masts gone the crew lost among left to say where they came from whose people they were at how long they had been journeying or how their downfall came about. dismissed as a primitive they could not conceive that their ancestors had built the city but stevens could no longer accept that the chinese were egyptian. to the american this was the legacy of a culture. and now with my own higher. vital historical. facts concerning the. rabbits. and you can see where the name comes from. bombings five. the rest. they were believed to be of. themselves could add to the catalogue of. hundreds. considerable. he was almost sixty seven when the extent. this delay was erected by a predecessor known as water that ejaculate. the first room that was. founded in a city around four hundred a deal on the western record. is still a broke bitch of a smashed some scholars believe. not all the na

said what could i do and i said well you could use a chemical weapons and the call it was in the new yorker and it was read to him and you know the yorker check stuff he approved it was in english he speaks english and he said to me. he said those things chemical weapons he says those things those use this things that the old man bashar is father want it off us he thought it was a deterrent against israel cost us the fortune teller we have to protect it. big pain he said if we use those weapons america could incinerate us with nukes and they'd be right and so crazy would be to use those weapons i said what would you do then and he said well we let america let the americans call that they come to the massacre so let's see what happens i said what are you talking about he said just like in baghdad you know when they when they when they when the knights of malta came in the thirteenth century the rivers would be full of their blood he said we have a resistance and so i remember going back and telling my general friends in washington you know this is not textbook you talk with the defense minut

now that's eatin' good in the neighborhood. >>> jonathan blitzer has reported at the new yorker aboutng mom named anna who had her five-year-old son taken from her last month at the border by the u.s. government. anna and other women who have incarcerated in el paso trying to find and get back their kids before they are deported so they are not deported without their kids, blitzer described these women as reaching out and getting a phone number and reaching out to a local group, a group called the las americas grant advocacy center to try to get help to get their kids back. he writes there is not much the legal could do to reunite her with her son. so the lawyer decided that what she would do is try to put pressure on anna's deportation officer to please hold off on deporting her until she could be reunited with her child. the lawyer told blitzer, quote, there is no set policy for how to do this. it depends on who the individual deportation officer is. so this is what it comes down to now. there is no policy tor reuniting the kids with parents after they've been taken. according to la

"the new yorker" today has a devastating report which appears to show that there's no actual plan that the government is even trying to implement to get kids and parents back together in any sort of systematic way. "no protocols have been put in place for keeping track of parents and children concurrently, for keeping parents and children in contact with each other while they are separated or for eventually reuniting them. no protocols have been put in place for eventually reuniting parents with their children." so it's not clear how much thought went into this, full stop. but the policy is accelerating. the outrage is snowballing to the point of avalanche. the white house and the administration clearly have no idea how to talk about this, how to answer any questions about what it is that they're doing. and then today, a remarkable thing happened. as the white house press briefing was set to start, we got what may turn out to be the straw that broke the camel's back. in the white house briefing room there's all those seats where reporters sit waiting for sarah huckabee sanders to come

>> guest: you know, when i wrote the new yorker piece, it didn't even occur to me. but by the end of it when i decided to do a book, it was like how can i write this book and really -- >> host: and not. >> guest: and not have the experience i'm describing. >> host: how can i write this book and not have the experience. [ laughing ] guest: well, it's also -- it's also kind of my brand, you know. >> host: yes. >> guest: when i wanted to write about the cattle industry, i bought a steer. [ laughing ] >> host: it was inevitable. >> guest: yes. it's what people expect from me. so i did it for you. >> host: that's right. he sacrificed for you. so why don't we just go back. and why don't you tell us. i loved this idea. i loved the idea of the world's very first lsd trip. >> guest: yes. >> host: i was like, oh, yeah, as soon as i read that. i was like, oh, yeah, there was a first one. so why don't you tell us about that and when and where it was. >> guest: your. >> host: and -- because part of what was so interesting about it was this was the first lsd trip in a sense of exp

the new yorker is right here. e crying child with president trump and then here's "the new yorker" one, hiding inside the skirt of lady liberty. >> lady liberty quote was added later, so we shouldn't worry about it about huddled masses. >> it's not like he can just issue an executive order and talk about something else now. it is what is going to happen. >> that's different about this time. >> what happens at the border now, after 20 days, if floors isn't modified. if you had a serious administration they would be working with congress, there would be meetings going on full-time with congressional leaders, there would be dhs and hhs meetings going on to coordinate the agencies. >> this was not a policy implemented by a executive order. and the president dot not need a executive order to stop it. it's prosecutorial discretion. it's up to agencies to decide whether a mother who is 30 with a 2-year-old son crossing the border is a criminal threat. to you prosecute them criminally or put them in the civil department. i

really didn't like leaks and so i had done a book on cheney i've written a lot about cheney for the new yorker during you know after nine eleven and there was a story a book to write and when i began giving chapters to people involved they said the appropriate you know it's just going to be published because they would get in trouble their professional intelligence people and military people the ones i deal with they take an oath of office to the to the constitution and not to any particular president so i just had to i just couldn't publish the book and put him in jeopardy it would put them in jeopardy would would make it almost impossible for me that the check about me is that. i don't give up people i mean people they don't go after my people they don't know who they are i put nothing in a computer i write all my interviews in longhand and so i just felt if i if i publish stuff over their opposition and they got prosecuted i would not sleep at night and be also not be able to do the kind of reporting i'm still doing if anyone reading this memoir about so much military action of one kind or

i talked to these people and i started off doing a straight piece of journalism published in the new yorker called trip treatment. you can get it online or on the website looking at these for people who are dying. my conversations with these people made the so curious and i have and have haven't heavy psyc experience i realized and the fact that they were able to change so late in life in their 60s and 70s that became attractive to. but the rest of us are mildly stuck and sometimes more than the fact that we all have habits of thought and behavior that we would like to change. and this was people that wanted to acquire all at once a new perspective that allowed him to change. i didn't think anything was broken in my life. >> did you wonder who you could be. and so that became a driving personal. when i wrote the new yorker piece it didn't occur to me that when i decided to write a book i was like how can im did not have the experience i was describing. it was my brand when i wte to write about the cattle industry i bought a steer. it's what people expect of me. so i did it for you. whyon't

susan glasser ray lays out the potential ramifications of trump's actions under the new yorker. she writes "as trump's dramatic moves have played out this spring and hardened into a presidential narrative at the hand of free riding allies, sister government officials and in washington have told me they worry that trump may be a greater immediate threat to the alliance than even great power rivals such as russia and china. here with us, susan glasser and jonathan allen at quebec city covering this summit. susan, when i heard what you said at 4:00 on this network it stopped me in my tracks. you said this is not a drill. tell the folks what you mean. >> well, you know, for a year and a half we have been wondering with trepidation what's going to happen with president trump and the rest of the world. a lot of chest beating about the death of the liberal international order. what does that mean? will we recognize it when it actually happened? in my view, what's happened of the past few weeks and in particular the past few days looked pretty much like the death of the international lib

"the rift between the world's great democracies that trump's election portended is coming to pass. senior government officials in london, berlin and other european capitals and in washington have told me they now worry that trump may be a greater immediate threat to the alliance," meaning the western alliance, "than even authoritarian great power rivals like russia and china." in berlin susan glasser spoke with several german officials who "made references to personal and familial dysfunction. a senior german lawmaker said, it's like your parents questioning their love for you." another said, "we were very emotional because our relationship with america is so emotional. it's more of a son-father relationship. we didn't recognize our father anymore, and now we realize he might beat us." when you up end decades of world ord

the journalists who discovered this story and got the women to go on record with the new york times and the the new yorkermagazine did. was the broke through a cartel of silence and an actual system of intimidation that was incredibly pervasive and ironically harvey weinstein's attorney last week stated that his defense was that he didn't invent the casting couch and it's true the entire history of the industry of the movie industry entertainment in general women are a product and generally men are the architects of what's being shouted and it's always unfortunately been this way ironically in the silent era there were more women directors and writers than there are now and so when you look at the city the statistics on who's going to tell the story is what i'm really helping us that the normalization of that kind of institutional sexism and abuse which really you know from top to bottom people really did know about this and journalists tried to break that story for decades and there was a conspiracy of silence and a lot of intimidation tactics actually to prevent it from being told i'm hoping this flips

the "new yorker's" jonathan blitzer reported from a new mexico facility on 50 mothers 0 had been separated from their kids, one m said few moms know their kids are. none of the agencies have explained to the mothers how they can locate their children. the "washington post" has published an account from a public defender who described a hearing from a mother whose child had been taken from her. quote, one of my colleagues asked the federal agent on the stand, about the whereabouts of my client's child. the justice department prosecutor objected, to the relevance of the questions. the judge turned on the prosecutor, demanding to know why this was not relevant. at one point the judge slammed his hand on the desk, sending a pen flying. this type of emotional display is unheard of in federal court. the judge said i cannot understand this. if someone at the jail takes your wallet, they give you a receipt. they take your kids and you get nothing? not even a slip of paper? or this report from the state of maryland. where many children have been reportedly been sent with little information. one is

"the new yorker" reported a lot of obama's staff didn't realize the extent of this problem. that were dropped in those countries that had not exploded. and it may have had something to do with the fact the administration then devoted $90 million to helping clean it up. so there was some real substance there. >> and tony talked plenty about food and culture. he wanted to educate. in one episode, he wanted to highlight diversity to show a side of the city many don't see. so, he feoff featured diverse communities. he was trying to open people's minds. did he a very similar thing when did he this else in the bronx, as well. >> exactly. it is, as i said, the central theme of tony's work has been make the foreign less foreign. make foreign people less foreign. playing their cultures less foreign. and the vehicle was food. in a way he was daring you to try to experience it. if you remember, so many of these episodes, he would try something weird. something that a lot of americans would go into a restaurant and say i'm not going to try that. i'm not going to try this exotic thing. h

well, here with us for more, the aforementioned susan glasser, staff writer at "the new yorker." and jonathan allen, longtime political journalist and nbc news national political reporter. he happens to be in quebec city tonight covering this summit. susan, you get to go first because when i heard what you said at 4:00 p.m. on this network, it stopped me in my tracks. you said, "this is not a drill." tell the folks what you mean. >> well, you know, for a year and a half we have been wondering with trepidation what's going to happen with president trump and the rest of the world. a lot of chest-beating about the death of the liberal international order, but what does that mean? will we recognize it when it actually happens? in my view, what's happened over the last few weeks, and in part tasfew days, looks pretty much like the death of the liberal international order. i think that the statement this morning about wanting russia to rejoin the g7, it just suggests donald trump is not subscribing to the basic tenets that brought the world's leading democracies together. it's not a cl
