♪ during in fear, the end of press freedom? at is the question we want to address today on quadriga. oral press freedom day is just around the corner. would you do your audience risk your lives to tell the truth? journalists and bloggers around the world are doing it on a daily basis. they are information hunters that they are often the hunted in war zones and other authoritarian societies and even in democracies. china, turkey, or poland, pressure is rising on those who tell the facts. an alarming downward spiral. that is what we want to talk three guestsith who have been directly affected by declining press freedom. meera jamal is a freelance journalism from -- during list -- journalist from pakistan. and loses contact with reality on the ground. belongs to a bedoon family from kuwait. they are stateless. they fell through the cracks inn quaid became independent 1961. as a blogger, she says journalism under authoritarianism he comes the best tool for resistance. it is a pleasure to welcome andreas kluth. he is a german-america

why this became an issue for the press. the timeline in the last four months since january 29th when this event actually happened, we were told he raised $6 million flat out and used that in almost every campaign stop publicly. today, he said he wanted to keep it private but he said it over and over dozens of times and then after that, the campaign actually revised to $5 million and then trump said he contributed an additional $1 million. and then in may, "the washington post" said that corey lewandowski revised that figure to $4.5 million and then we were told by the campaign, cnn told that number was incorrect. so just a few days ago, mr. trump said, again, he raised almost $6 million, last week, he gave his own $1 million. that's last week. he gave his own $1 million last week. almost four months after the event. and then this is what gave rise to the questions and the scrutiny. i want to bring in dana bash. is there a liberal sided press that is attacking him on this vets issue and the money or is it broad and wide? the

i think the press knew that. i had a tremendous crowd. but it was the biggest crowd you could have had because it was all cordoned off. they weren't allowed to have any more people than they had. so instead of saying trump made a speech in front of a packed crowd, they said trump was disappointed because i didn't have millions of people going from jefferson to washington. i mean, give me a break. it's just, honestly, it's dishonest reporting. yeah, go ahead. no, no, go. >> [inaudible] how are veterans -- [inaudible] >> well, the veterans, believe me. let me tell you the veterans, why they believe. and i have -- one group was here that i gave -- is al here? maybe you want to say. this is a group i gave money to. he just showed up. i just saw him. but i could have asked all these groups to come here, and i didn't want to do that. i'm not looking for credit. but what i don't want is when i raise millions of dollars, have people say like this sleazy guy right over here from abc, he's a sleaze in my book -- >> [inaudible] >> you're a sleaze bec

the press. >> i think he did that already. it felt to me watching like a turning point in this campaign. a point where they will start pushing back harder. i think ever since he became the nominee, he's been getting much more critical press coverage than the primary. i think this is just the beginning of what will be a contentious battle. i think this could be the thing that backfires on him. it makes him look, even to those who likes him a lot, as somebody who cannot take what he gives out. >> the other big question is he got away, his team got away with trying to take out revenge who they didn't like. i think that is a lot harder to do as the nominee because there's so much scrutiny. >> absolutely. >> thank you. katy tur. we'll be right back. i had a wonderful time tonight. me too! call me tomorrow? i'm gonna send a vague text in a couple of days, that leaves you confused about my level of interest. i'll wait a full two days before responding. perfect! we're never gonna see each other again, will we? no-no. wouldn't it be gre

thank the press for that. i had a tremendous crowd but it was the biggest crowd you could have had because you weren't allowed to have any more. they were allowed to have any more people than they had so instead of saying trump manages speech instead of a tax crowd, they said trump was disappointed because i didn't have millions of people going from jefferson to washington. give me a break. it's dishonest reporting. go ahead. [inaudible question] >> let me tell you the veterans, what they believe in one group was here, is out of all the cerro here? maybe want to say, this is group i gave money to and i could've asked these groups, he just showed up, i just saw him but i could've asked all these groups to come here and i didn't want to do that. i'm not looking for credit. but what i don't want is when i raise millions of dollars to have people say like this sleazy guy rightover here from abc, he's a sleaze . you're a sleaze because you know the facts and you know the facts well. go ahead. >> thank you mister tru

i find the press to be extremely dishonest. find the political press to be unbelievably dishonest. john: here are two things that are true. the first is that trump has benefited by making the price -- the press a foil. he has mocked and belittled reporters, while at the same time soliciting to them behind-the-scenes more than any candidate that we have covered. donald trump in private actually loves the press and courts than constantly. he is like a one-man good cop bad cop routine. he's being cops at the same time. do you think that will work in a general election? mark: i think he is now in a different phase. you saw it in the press conference. people are not treating him as a curiosity. there are a lot of people on the left and right who do not like the press. bernie sanders attacks the present most as much as -- attacks the press almost as much as donald trump does. i think he will keep it up.it got him this far. i think that the clinton folks are hoping, and the press should agree with the clinton folks, that he is held to

both. >> there are problems in the press. ge ste stephanopoulos giving millions to the clintons, that's hypocrisy. trump can play that. that's not the dominant motif of the press. most of the press are just trying to get citizen facts about these two candidates and they're not playing favorites. they want to do their job. we saw it today. it's been going on for a couple of weeks now. maybe a month or so. where they're really coming after trump and it's only going to get worse and he has to get his act together. he can keep going off like this. it won't work. >> one thing i want to say. >> quickly, quickly. >> yes. you know, my fellow panelist complains of trump filibuster but he filibusters me. the point i was trying to make is "the washington post" has 20 investigative reporters on donald trump. when asked about hillary clinton, they didn't have an answer and saying quality matters more than qualintity. >> may i respond? >> yes. eric, respond. >> i would simply respond donald trump is a presidential candidate for not even a y

the question. >> i think and i have been dealing with the press a long time. i think the political press is among the most dishonest people that i have ever met. i have to tell you that okay? of course you are excluded, carl. >> wait a few minutes. >> i think the political press -- i see the stories. and i see the way they are couched. i'm not looking for credit. but what i don't want is when i raise millions of dollars, have people say, like this sleazy guy right over here from abc, is he a sleaze in my book. >> why am i sleaze? >> you are a sleaze because you know the facts and you know the facts well. the bad part about the dishonesty of the media is that people like me will be inclined not to do it anymore. because why should you raise 5.6 million and i think i will go over 6 million pretty easily, nobody said that we started this out as a small little project where it was less than a million dollars because it just kept mushrooming and building and building. nobody talks about that. as you can see i have given a lot of money and raised a lot of money for t

and peter arnett work in vietnam for the associated press from 1962 to 1975. andrew sherry of the night foundation, a former foreign correspondent moderated the conversation. we began with a two-minute video clip of dan rather reporting from vietnam. this is part of a three-day conference at the lbj presidential library in austin, texas that organizers call the vietnam war summit. it's about one hour. [gunfire] >> they are now hiring back. could you tell us what is happening here and what the situation is? >> i think this is the second or third day i was in vietnam. >> this is the special landing force? they were trying to get to the ridgeline. then as they begin to move aycock crossfire -- i can't crop -- i caught crossfire in a young marine was hit badly. they needed help getting him out. naturally i helped. it doesn't take much imagination to know what i was thinking. >> we need some help over here. >> i will give you a hand. mr. rather: i see this young man cut down. says, my god, this is somebody's son, brother, husband. when you are there if you let your

he does not like the press. the idea that he gave me an exception, i take exception to him giving me an exception. trump pounds me more than any other reporter probably in his rallies singling me out for all kinds of criticism. so thanks for the compliment but not so much a compliment. being on the other side of the podium from donald trump is a very combative place to be because he is a very combative candidate. >> so trump also spoke about uniting the republican party. what did he have to say about that? >> he has been critical, particularly last week specifically in the case of susanna martinez, the republican governor of new mexico. there's been a lot of criticism he needs to stop attacking, republicans, said the chair -- finance chairman for the republican governors association. responsible for getting republican governors elected. saying that trump's beating up on fellow republicans is not any way to unite the party. and today he basically didn't back down and whether asked about what his white house might

he attacks his critics, attacks the press. i've been on the campaign trail with him countless times where he talks about the disgusting or dishonest news media. that's why i asked him that question if that fashion today. i talked to a trump campaign adviser earlier today and said you know what, these lines after tacks against the news media work with donald trump supporters. they sort of look at it as a win/win. no question about it, when he goes after a colleague like tom llamas and calls him sleazy, that's certainly not the case. george w. bush you heard. they didn't know they were on mike. they thought they were off mike. this was donald trump saying this to a reporter to his face at a press conference. in the end, wolf, the trump campaign feels like this is something that plays really well with his supporters. they're not worried about how his supporters are taking what happened today at all, wolf. >> jim acosta reporting from new york. thanks very much. i want to bring in chris collins of new york. he's a trump supporter,

>> is the press being dismissive cruz picking carly fiorina? >> a piercest campaign critic is also one of his oldest friends, a conversation with geraldo rivera, and hillary clinton brace sells that she may not win the nomination. >> that was june 7, 2008, when you endorsed president obama. june 7, 2016 will be the california primary. that is when you, if you are ahead in the vote --. >> i am ahead in the vote. i am ahead. >> what about bernie sanders complaining the press is unfairly writing him off some. >> a report from the white house correspondents' dinner and president obama's last chance to stick it to the press. and others. >> i want to thank the press corps, and carol for all you do. the free express are central to our democracy -- i'm just kidding! you know i'm going to talk about trump. come on! >> i am kurtz -- howard kurtz and this is "media buzz". >> it was only a couple of weeks ago that donald trump was calling most of the media "dishonest." >> we hike the media. do you we hate the media? >> after he won person, maryland, delawar

ended up being criticized by the press. i made a speech and during my speech i said i would raise money for the veterans. it turned out to be a lot of money, not a little money. i thought we could get to a million dollars it would be great. which it would've been. i do raise millions. >> the night that i will fundraiser you said you would raised $6 million. trump: i race almost $6 million but more money is coming through. when we're finished will probably be over the $6 million. i don't mind it coming from the opposition. what i do mind is when i raise all of this money and no renewal be over $5 million. here's the story. i've been dealing with the press for a long time. i think the political press is among the most dishonest people i've ever met. of course you are excluded, carl. you're the middle. i see the stories. i see the way they are couched. weekend to dois rolling thunder. i was invited. we had a tremendous gathering of people. thousands of people. that we would go from the jefferson memorial to the lincoln. i was j

the press should be ashamed of themselves. n behalf of the vets, the press should be ashamed of themselves. they are calling me and they are furious because i sent people checks of a lot of money and i'm going to give you the names right now, which is what you want. instead of being like thank you very much, mr. trump or trump did a good job, everyone said who got it, who got it and you make me look very bad. i have never received such bad publicity for doing such a good job. >> so let's connect the dots here. all this dates back to the beginning of the year, trump not going to the fox debate saying i will throw a fund-raiser instead heralding raising over 6 million bucks, a great thing to do. i don't think anybody is looking at that saying that's not good work. where the money goes is also a point of view for veterans to question. there has been a divide. there are grateful vets organizations getting this and others think trump is using them as a prop and not paying off. >> that's why there is accountability. if he is going to

press from the press file into the actual convention arena.nd there's new credentialing processes in place that the secret service has started, which means that everybody who is going to be in certain areas, including all of the press are going to have to go through specialized background screenings. so it's going to be much different not only in how it looks in terms of donald trump rearranging how the convention will be presented but also how the press experience the convention. >> your story focusing primarily on how the republican party is going to have a very different convention. you write this celebrity billionaire is revamping everything about the gop's dog and pony show. but my question is does this put any pressure on the democrats and the likely nominee hillary clinton and what the democrats will put together in philadelphia this summer? >> i definitely think the democrats are keeping that in mind, especially because similar to how the debates have drawn in so many more viewers, it's a question of their messages getting out there to

the press file is actually a mile away with specialized shuttles to bring the press from the press file into the actual convention arena and there is new credentialing processes in place which means that everybody who is going to be in certain areas including the media has to go through special background screenings. it's going to be different not only in how it looks and terms of donald trump rearranging how the convention will be presented but also in terms of how the press experiences the convention. >> you are focusing primarily on how the republican party is going to have a very different in mid-january the celebrity billionaires revamping everything about the gop's dog and pony show. my question is does is put any pressure on the democrats and the likely nominee hillary clinton and what the democrats will put together in philadelphia this summer? >> i definitely think the democrats are keeping that in mind especially because similar to how they debate have drawn in so many more viewers, it's a question of their message is getting out there to more people than the democrats message

i find the political press to be unbelievably dishonest. i will say that. charlie gasparino was at the trump news conference, joins us live from the trump tower. charlie, i've been watching your reports, and you always call it like you see it. he was a very combative conference when it came to the press, but there was a point that he made and it was simply, look, i got beaten up and called bad things for trying to do good things. >> well, i guess i'm one of the guys who tried to beat him up, one of those dishonest, libelous, slanderous reporters. we at fox business were the first to report. donald trump holds a press conference, i believe it was january, might have been february. it was after he canceled the fox news debate, canceled his appearance. he said that he raised $6 million for veterans. he said it, not us. he said he listed the veterans groups he raised it from. and guess what the dishonest reporter, me, went out and did? i went out and tried to verify his claim. and i found out that his claim of raising $6 million a month after wasn't right. he d

the photographer paul davis works for the associated press. it is early in 1961 and a young kennedy administration is in trouble. after the disastrous invasion of bay of pigs, fidel castro is very, very angry. nickeda crush e is pushing his advantage and the american people are beginning to doubt the ability of mr. kennedy to lead the country. so he seeks counsel with former president eisenhower. and they meet at camp david. the press is invited to make some photographs of these meetings. and there are a lot of photographers there doing the coverage. salinger, the press secretary for mr. kennedy is in charge of the whole event. and he lets everyone do what they need to do and then eventually he just shuts it down. he closes the lid, as he says. and so the reporters start going and everyone is starting to leave. but mr. vega is at the very beginning of the pack. and as he's crouching down, picking up his materials, he looks and he hears eisenhower telling kennedy, i know somewhere where we can go and talk. and as he's looking, he sees the pictur

this is how he is. >> does he go after the conservative press, the right wing press such as it is? >> you know, at times. i think you got to see who he's talking, when he's talking. we were lined up in the front row. most of the bigger newspapers and trump kind of selected a few to camera today. that is a strategy that he's used for nearly a year now. >> the press, i think, are seen ooze liberal. i think fox is not. you're sitting right next to major garrett, were you immune to his assault today? >> well, i don't know if we were immune. i think that there are certain questions that trump would prefer not to answer and i think that some of those questions revolve around the issue of, as we talk about, accountability. you saw him become angry about these questions over the charitable donations. he feel like if he says he's going to donate, that should be good enough. you heard him sort of complaining there or upset that he has donated money and he feel like he's not getting credit he should be receiving for making those donations. on the other side, the question should be held a publi

i think the press knew that. dous crowd, but the biggest crowd because it was all quartered off. they weren't allowed to have any more people. so instead of saying trump made a speech or one of a packed crowd, they said trump was disappointed because i didn't have millions of people going from jefferson to washington. i mean, give me a break. it's just dishonest reporting. go ahead. [inaudible] >> the veterans believe me. let me tell you why. one group was here. [inaudible] this is a group i gave money to. i could've asked all these groups. he just showed up. i just saw him. i could've asked these groups to come here. i didn't want to do that. i am not looking for credit. but what i don't want is when i raise millions of dollars, have people say, like this sleazy guy ride over here from abc. he is a in my book. you are a because you know the facts and you know the facts well. >> thank you, mr. trout. for the record, i'm a state representative from your hampshire, tenure in the budget affairs are many. 22 years in

he was giving away millions of dollars, and he stepped on his own story by attacking the press. >> by saying, you didn't say thank you. right? >> to your point? it's intriguing to me, is this what it's going to be like if you're president of the united states and he was like, yeah, this is what i'm going to be like. he hasn't changed. i thought maybe he would mellow with the no pivot. thought he would mellow as the establishment came on board, but as to the non-disclosure agreement, we're going to see the same donald trump. >> it wasn't just the -- i mean, he went after the press a lot and in the kinds of terms that make you wonder about what it would be like as president when he has to deal with the press. but also, he went after the judge in the civil suit at trump university for the third time in three days. he went after the governor of new mexico, who he took this swipe at while he was a rising star in the republican party, latino woman with high favorables. >> because she doesn't support him. >> he went after bill crystal. the whole thing was just an opportunity -- this was abou

. >> is the press taking the campaign into the gutter? is the crash of the egyptair changing the media's campaign coverage? megyn kelly finally sits down with donald trump after ms. of being attacked with the billionaire saying he has some regrets about language and certain twitter tirades. >> you would be amazed at ones i don't re-tweet. >> bimbo? thank you was a re-tweet. >> did i say that? >> many times. >> okay. excuse me. >> we will look at the high steaks interview and what the kickics say. >> and bob woodward why the "washington post" suddenly has 20 reporters investigated donald trump. what about hillary clinton? >> and different fusing liberal bias accusations at facebook with tucker carlson. >> remembering morley safer, a giant. and a gentleman. this is "media buzz" and i am howard kurtz. the crash of the egyptair airplane dominated the news for day with donald trump quickly tweeting it looks like terrorism. he got into it on msnbc. >> the worry also is how you will be a president and present your positions and your words. there

. >> the press is so damned dishonest. so this is thousands and thousands of people by the way they could siphon fill the three rooms by does want to take you all for coming it is an amazing experience i have met so many people in indiana i stayed we're doing well. but we are really doing well. we call him lying ted cruz. he is lying. almost worse than the press. almost. and donahue heard because the press will not tell you this but a new poll came out a few hours ago and i am beating hillary clinton and. [cheers and applause] and i haven't even started yet. even the senators and governors even ben carson who is a great guy. he endorsed me. chris chris d. he endorsed me. a lot of people have endorsed me. jerry falwell, jr. just caved of is so many ministers and pastors. in new york we did the exit poll we won with 11 end with the bed. -- with the with the ad with a bed. and highly educated with a rich rand up for the then we went to the five states you went to connecticut and had to maryland. had every single one in a lands

the press should be ashamed of themselves and on behalf of the vets, the press should be ashamed of themselves. they are calling me and they are furious. >> what's his strategy here? because a lot of politicians often go after the news media, we remember that over the years but what is he trying to achieve? >> we're an easy political hit. no love lost for people out there, the media at large. that's just a fact. it's true talking about democrats and republicans but much more so for republican candidates. but in this particular situation, truthfully, i'm not sure that that's, there's a political strategy. i think he was just, he seemed to be just angry and lashing out at reporters who asked him questions that got him to this place, holding a press conference the day after memorial day to explain where the money that he had pledged had come from, and where it was going. but, you know, if we were watching a more conventional politician, they would have come out to this press conference and said, guess what? you know, it might have been bumpy and i did this whole rally back in iowa and a very kind

and i think that the political press and i see the stories and the way they are couched. for instance, i went down this weekend to do rolling thunder, and i was invited and i didn't have anything to do wit. and we had a tremendous gathering of people, and i don't know how many but thousands and i said, oh, i joked from the jefferson memorial to the lincoln, and they said, donald trump was disappoint ed, and everybody knew that i was sar ras tick, and said that donald trump was disappointed that it d didn't go from jefferson to lincoln. you know, millions off people. i was joking. i said, oh, i'm used to watching it, and i was joking. so they put it down as serious, and they knew i was joking. another example, we had a certain, and the same event, and it was roped off where you could only get so many people there, and there were a lot of people, and 10,000, and maybe 15,000 or maybe 25,000, and i don't know, because a lot of people and people were breaking the seams all of the way along, and gene washington, a man i like, wrote a article like there were 5,000 people, and t

but i will say that the press should be ashamed of themselves. and on behalf of the events, the press should be ashamed of themselves. they are calling me x they are furious because i sent people checks of a lot of money, and i'm going to give you the names right now which is what you want. and instead of being like thank you very much, mr. trump, or trump did a good job, everyone said who got it, who got it, who got it, and you make me look very bad.

is so dishonest especially the political press. like just about -- nothing i've ever seen, can compete with it. it is -- a disgrace. what happened. >> let me give you a chance to clean something up here before you hear the reactions to it. you said, in reaction to the president's joke, yeah, it's funny, but i actually deal with a lot of people around the world. i have nor more experience than than with anybody with their eyes on this job. there's going to be immediate pushback from hillary clinton saying i was secretary of state. traveling more than any secretary of state in history dealing with world leaders on the highest level. donald trump says he has the same experience that i do? you're going to get pushback on that. do you want to revise the statement? >> are you creating -- let me tell you i'm not gotting pushback? something i said ten seconds ago? you're creating the phony pushback. >> hold on a second. you hillary clinton dealt with other countries, too. one thing i give her credit for, she did a lot of traveling. look at

i have to tell you, the press is so dishonest and so unfair. the liberal media -- tyou need o get your head out of your butt and focus on the real issues. thank you. [ applause ] >> golden state warriors, hillary clinton camping in new jersey and back to california later this week. >> while bernie sanders is hoping the nba coming back from the western championship. >> and governor jerry brown comes through for hillary clinton, a close call on his date. despite his story clashes with the clinton way back then in 1992. >> he's paying money for his wife's law firm for states business. i don't think you can take much of what he said seriously. >> i don't to escape it. >> good day everyone, i am andrea mitchell. >> showing he did contribute one million dollars that he promised veterans back in january. although not until he was pressed by reporters of the washington post last week. trump lashed out at reporters today at a news conference. >> i raised close to $6 million. it will probably be over that amount when it is all said and done. but, as of th

time now for the press review. studio, forn the what's running headlines in the written press. lot of focus on brazil, where the senate voted to suspend dilma rousseff from office yesterday. -- dilma yousef rousseff yielded her position, a brazilian paper decided to give their vote of confidence to the 75-year-old. it is necessary in these times of deep division in brazil between those are that are in favor of dilma rousseff and those were very critical of her. give our confidence to this government because of the moment, until the government we have. they stayed the country must be united if he wants to get back on track and resume its growth. anchor: what are we saying for papers outside of brazil? most papers inside brazil are in favor of the impeachment, it's the opposite for papers outside. most papers outside of brazil are article of impeachment process. let's take a look at the front page of the wall street journal. they are talking about the hard road ahead for brazil, equally, if we take a look at the editorial in the guardian today, the newspaper starts out by saying b

i didn't want the credit for it, but it was very unfair that the press treated us so badly. go ahead. >> to follow up on that, you keep calling us the dishonest press. >> generally speaking that's 100% true, go ahead. >> i disagree with that, sir. if i can ask you this question, it seems as though you're resistant to scrutiny, the kind of scrutiny that comes with running for president of the united states. >> i like scrutiny. but you know what, when i raise money -- excuse me, excuse me. i've watched you on television.
