this is a woman, tina brown, who met the princess once. once. for lunch, and she managed to write a book about her life and an article in newsweek. she's wrong. tina brown is wrong. kate would not have been jealous of diana, or vice versa. diana would have embraced kate. >> there's also a facebook page that is create -- created as if it were diana's living facebook page and on it says diana is now friends with camilla parker bowles, would that be the case, she's also going back and forth on facebook with sarah ferguson, what do you think about that? >> we have to remember, if diana is alive, charles would not have married camillera bowles, he couldn't have married her with an existing wife so camilla would have been out of the picture and would they have been friends, i don't think so. this woman caused dianaa a great deal of -- diana a great deal of stress, a great deal of tears went under that bridge. >> and as much fun as some of these pictures might be to look at for people that miss diana and wonder about these things, you think the boys wo

we have "morning joe" economist and tina brown. the general's next war, we'll talk about that. >> there's only one thing to talk about. >> i done see what's so surprising about that. >> not if you know wendy. >> i thought she was great. >> gosh. >> her reaction was so much faster than everybody else. not only there, she goes back, hits the guy, falls down, gets up, then when he was leaving, he had the shaving cream all over him she shoved it in his face. >> amazing. so instinktive and wendy like. >> it's all in a day's work as a wife. >> everybody else is flinching. >> it was great. she wanted to protect her man and she went for him. that was great. >> thank god someone did. >> talk about her. you all know her well. tell me about wendy. >> she is one of the most driven, focused, toughest people i have ever met. >> she's very direct. i find it beguiling. she's just going at it in a direct way. >> what do you mean? >> she will come out, ask what is on her mind, get right in your face. whatever she's thinking about. >> we gave an even

we're talking about it tina brown is smart. she got everyone talking about the cover. >> laura: how about sons and daughters. gresham as a mom i have one daughter and two sons but now i guess it's just people want boys? what's going on there? >> well, so this new survey said that americans would choose to have a boy rather than a girl. but one thing that's missing, i think, in this survey, laura, they did not decipher whether or not they were asking parents or people who don't have children yet. i think you would get a totally different answer if you actually just surveyed people who already have children. let's face it, there is still some sort of discrimination in our society. and i think that it is sort of this forgone conclusion that boys are easier to raise and that they end up being more successful. however, the facts now show that more girls are actually graduating from college than boys and that girls do better in school in general. so, i'm not so sure about these results because they didn't -- they didn't pars out whet

tina brown thought it might be a good idea to sell magazines.sted what the people's princess facebook page might have looked like, one of her friends, camilla, unlikely. from the times from london, as ton sticker, why didn't they ex human and grab the rot ted corpse? and the cover story featuring a creepy montage of the princess of wales standing by kate middleton is disgrace. what inspired

. >> on wednesday, newsweek editor in chief tina brown refer to the g.o.p. as suicide bombers on ms-nbc's morning joe in a discussion about the president being, quote, held hostage on the debt ceiling. >> i think that the president would have no credibility if he did not demand some -- >> demand it, they ain't going to get it. >> okay, so i think -- what was the answer to my question about who the hostage taker is, willie? >> sounds like -- [inaudible]. >> i think they're the suicide bombers in all of this. >> ohhhh. >> i think we doubled the msnbc audience. she photoshopped princess diana on newsweek, distorting the image, as if she had lived instead of died and there is more. this happened. >> sees the united states as an essential component of the eventual success in that quiet. and the military is the best. the intelligence service >> when you hear that, that means a unicorn's being born. >> it wasn't that guy's fault.s, wired to a wall. he doesn't know what a blackberry is. >> if someone on the right had said this about the dems, how much outrage could

on the same network, i guess the media's most beloved liberal show, tina brown comparing republicansde bombers as it relates to budget talks. let's roll the tape. >> what was the answer to my question about who the hostage take really? [ inaudible ] >> suicide bombers in all this. >> i think they are standing on principle, doing what they believe is right. >> come on. >>> they are not serious people on both sides. >> sean: suicide bombers. >> this is the same woman sean hannity, at the end of 2009 rush limbaugh saying that he was creating a toxic atmosphere. why? because he said he hoped obama's policies would fail. yet she can call conservatives suicide bombers and it is okay. what hypocrisy! >> sean: it is amazing. civility only works in one direction. the president can smear republicans as much as he wants. then elect s everybody on civility this is why we -- then elect s everybody on civility this is why we do this segment. for years the media got away with it, now they don't. which intensifies their hatred of fox news and radio. >> no question. we said this was going to happen.

we know she loved america and the author, tina brown, they both think she would have gone to the u.s. >> you know, everybody that meets diana once or twice say they knew her. she didn't know her. diana wasn't one of those people you got to know. she had lots of acquaintancacqu. she didn't allow people to get close. those that did were a small handful. you could count them on one hand. yes, she loved visiting america, but wouldn't have lived there. she wouldn't have gone away from william and harry. she would have been as close as possible. >> the inevitable comparisons are going to come between diana and kate. some say they are not fair to either of them. they say the legacy of diana should be left alone. kate should not be subjected to the pressure of living up to the people's princess. i've had fleeting thoughts that the vast popularity that kate's enjoying right now, diana was just the same and i worry that when you put people such highly up on pedestals, there's nowhere to go but down. froms. >> i share your concerns there, alex. it's wrong to try and compare kate to diana. diana

tina brown's first edition of "newsweek," this is women's moment, clearly.have you read nicholas christophe and cheryl's book, "how's the sky"? they say the moral imperative of the 21st century is the empowerment of women. ernst & young have looked at company across every sector, and they say those that have greater numbers of women in their upper management and on their boards make more money. they have a better return on investment: so everyone is looking at us and saying, this is women's moment. but like katherine big elope standing there with her two os corps car -- oscar, she sort of looked like a deer in the headlights to me like what am i going to do with this? i found from my research that women resist the power that's in our hands, and i started to look at why. why is this, why does this happen? and what i discovered is it has a lot to do with the fact that we have negative attitudes about the idea of power to begin with, that we have an old idea of power in our minds, an idea of power that was constructed back when it was brawn and not brains that

steve rattner, tina brown. talked to a few on the phone over the past week.t know rupert believe he's going to step down. you say he can't survive this and they laugh in your face. he'll survive this. >> we don't know where it's going to go. this is an institution that's been hardened. his stature, what you saw in the hearings is he is a person of stature. whatever the hell you say about him and the people who have gone after him come late to the game and at the same time, he is now lawyered up in terms of trying to isolate himself from the worst of this and the worst of this is a kind of paint that has to do with basic corruption. >> yeah. >> corruption and abusive power. on a scale that we have not seen in a long time. >> how do you take corruption and power away from the name murdock? >> that is the big question. sure, you don't want to bet against murdock. at the same time, there's a train coming down the tracks. >> yeah. tons of bodies on the side. >> he's standing by the tracks. we don't know the outcome of this. >> what is the attitude inside fox and t
