and i don't see any u.s. media companies actually really engaging in speaking about it but it's something that is -- it's an ongoing issue and it's something that many audiences outside of the u.s. are deeply engaged and concerned about and there's such a huge demand with bbc and sky news to really not only address it and talk about it but they want to know what is the u.s. role in the crisis, and what's the u.s. policy, what's the u.s. position, what is donald trump, what is the president going to do to try to address this issue and so it's something that they're covering en masse but it's also something that they're desperately looking for the united states and the united states engagement and what is the u.s. position on these issues. any international issue that's ongoing, you have -- and i think maybe one of the advantages to being an american, i shouldn't say that. that sounds pretty bad, right? there's so many advantages. >> passport is a good thing. >> there's a huge demand, huge thirst and appetite for int

u.s. versus how international media organizations. we'll jump to that top k. how are they effecting coverage here in the u.s. i know that when i watch the brngs b. fox news, abc, these, cbs. >> probably not nearly as much of an impact as we would hope. we were talking before about the political crisis in venezuela. you know, when one of our senior correspondents, our latin american editor can get in and get a visa, she will go in to report. if the government doesn't give our crews visas, they have to sit on the border while the political crisis plays out. you would think u.s. networks would want to be there. this is human suffering. this is political crisis. you know, all of the elements of drama, tension. and a political figure who for better or worse is considered a bogieman here in washington. can't break through. cynically i think it would take some mass casualty, people losing their lives before the u.s. media would actually invest time and people to actually cover the political crisis in venezuela. yemen, no one can get in. it's an active war zone. the sa

that the u.s. media mainstream lost its virginity if i can say it and. now russian media is kind of belatedly i think mark would get the. russian media of course it's not solved but we were talking about peter's every russian leader whether it's pushing or. any of this quote for us that you're the tough talk so you know some talk through this but they always say yes but the open open for cooperate we understand the world challenges on the u.s. and our share of work together because here's this from us media or us politicians you only hear is from the russian side that's why i think russia is now this kind of advanced position that is going to be more. sympathetic to you should be to you going to american people the problem is the mainstream media they will never get that message that's that's the problem the filter of the day and they do and they demand well thank you and they demand to be the filter ok i mean they are the. protectors of this ideology to make sure that the american people only hear one message here that should be used what more are fighti

u.s. policy to the international audience? did the media read the speech?ng about the exact same thing that the president of france was talking about. the media went micro, started going after fake news, didn't do a fair job of reporting and i don't think they read his speech or watched it in its entirety. what are your thoughts? >> of course they didn't. they are definitely going to focus themselves. that's what they're showing themselves to be the best at. they're going to read it now, already reported on it and not even a story anymore because everything was positive, he was focusing on policy and doing his job as president of the united states and because they won't have anything negative to say about it, it's not an issue tomorrow. liz: democratic presidents have defended freedom, democracy, individual human dignity. when president trump does that, the u.s. media seems they just didn't report it. seems like they ignored it. and what's ironic katrina, and i'm sorry if i'm getting my back up, is that the president is defending the very values that let th

u.s. and media as it pertains to the so-called russia russia gate and from the democrats in general. well it's become a sort of a meme a kneejerk response that was encouraged frankly by the hillary clinton campaign especially in the aftermath of the november election taken up by so much of the mass media and you know whatever grain of truth there may be in terms of russian interference is overwhelmed by the hyperbole by the aggressiveness by the very dangerous hostility that is being ginned up by much of the us mass media and by the top of the democratic party and let's not forget there are republican hawks such as john mccain and lindsey graham in the senate who are equally aggressive minded equally extreme in terms of their willingness and interest in escalating hostilities and negativity towards russia these are a long term structural problems in the u.s. economy where there is a huge profit taking going on perennially by the military industrial complex and so these factors have combined to really increase hostility towards russia is very dangerous and it's important that we turn

they don't see putin as the u.s. media sees them.yanne conway saying cnn was wrong about russia as recently as last week. watch. >> cnn spent a full week plus doing nothing but having these headlines saying president trump is not expected to raise russian interference with president putin. he made it top of the agenda. it was first on the list. pressed him early and often. >> did he press him or ask him whether he did it? >> did cnn say he wasn't going to mention it at all or did they? >> you know that -- >> just aren't true. liz: but here's the issue. do we know if the trump administration is going after the russia for medaling in the election? >> well, i think that you've certainly seen. this is not an administration that's been half as soft on russia, as she pointed out, that didn't bring some stupid red reset button to a meeting like hillary clinton did. i think you've seen un ambassador haley being pretty tough on russia at the un. so the idea that somehow russia would try to get donald trump elected so they can get some sort of

the president had harsh words for the u.s. media. president trump: they have been fake news for a long time, covering me in a dishonest way. do you have that, mr. president? [laughter] nbc is equally as bad despite the fact that i made them a fortune with "the apprentice." sam: about north korea, he said he was weighing severe things that did not give specifics. tomorrow, he meets with vladimir putin and you can bet the entire world will be watching. live in the newsroom, sam sweeney. adrianna: congressman steve scalise back in the icu after he was shot. his office but this out last night, saying doctors have new concerns about infections. he is in serious condition. six people injured in the ambush before the shooter was killed by police at eugene simpson stadium last month and they expect another update on steve scalise at some point later today. police looking at one neighborhood in south beach where a paintball shootout left behind a huge mess. large field but now it is into the streets. the fallout now and reaction from the comm

u.s. and russia but also by israel and jordan well when it comes to the american media it seems that they were mostly worried about whether their president would put pressure on flat improvement over allegations of russian interference in the u.s. presidential race donald trump brought up that issue several times a lot of our putin kept replying that washer wasn't involved and at the vladimir putin press conference one journalist asked him whether russia was planning to meddle in the german elections well the russian leader had quite a laugh and here's how he replied but it's all new. you ask very provocative questions i've already answered this we didn't interfere in the u.s. elections so why do we need to interfere in the june elections because we have a long history of friendship with germany its own largest trading partner in europe but we have many joint projects so why would we interfere in the internal affairs we were expecting a press conference by donald trump but apparently that dodd canceled and it is a real disappointment well i guess we will have to hear something from donald

and blasted the u.s. media for treating him unfairly and criticized the u.s. military. it's not the custom to denigrate the u.s. institutions while on foreign soil. david muir will have more on the world news tonight. >> expecting heavy rain and we have got it. sky 6 hd is aimed at philadelphia and you can hardly see it. we have a flash flood watch in philadelphia and the surrounding area, lets get the latest from cecily tynan. >> reporter: the morning showers evolved in a steadier rain this afternoon and double scan live radar showing pickets of heavy rain west of philadelphia. it's going to be a while before we can completely dry out the atmosphere. and we are seeing the potential for a lot of rain in a short period of time. the national weather service posted an insurance watch for philadelphia and all the counties surrounding i-95 until 6:00 tomorrow morning. that means the potential for localized flooding we have been seeing flash flooding this is where the warning continues for the next hour and a half in southern newcastle county, middletown townsend, delaware, t

agree on official visits from both sides that will have to wait and see in the meantime several u.s. media outlets still cannot accept the idea that russia did not interfere in the election the u.s. ambassador to the u.n. nikki haley echoed that view on c.n.n. . i think president clinton did exactly what we thought he would do which is deny it and so this is russia trying to save face i must say i'm pleasantly surprised by the fact that the meeting went as well as it did considering the absolutely hysterical at the sphere in the american media that trump has succumbed that trump in the words of c.n.n. from this afternoon has fallen into putin's trap and i'm glad that trump has turned out to be an adult in this situation i think the problem for the russians so i don't for everybody really is how how much trouble is in charge of his own administration because it's quite clear that you know the cia the pentagon and so often wrong footing trumps moves and therefore the some question about whether we can deliver whatever response discussed with a lot inclusive of the fact that they have all the

and the buildup to this the number one issue discussed in the u.s. media was whether donald trump was going to bring up the issue of russian interference in the u.s. election well i can tell you that american journalists didn't give their president a chance to be the first one to bring this question up thank you very much. to larry king live. the u.s. secretary of state rex tillerson who was also in that room during the talks told us that the american president opened his discussion with his russian counterpart by citing the concerns of the american people over allegations of russian hacking rex tillerson went on to say that the president came back to that question several times but a lot of putin kept denying any involvement in the meantime the russian foreign minister sergey lavrov says that russia's take on this issue hasn't changed that you have the new model for this company has been blown through pollution and that's been admitted by those involved accusations. been around for many months but no evidence has been provided trump says that putin denied

policy and yet it is barely covered in the u.s. media so. i think the obsession with russia the obsession with every tweet of the trump puts out is really keeping the media from covering some very important aspects of the war in the middle east who's winning who's losing what is the role of saudi arabia what's the role of iran what does it mean for the u.s. to say it's no longer going to be supporting rebel groups that have been trying to overthrow assad these are things that the media should definitely be talking about well into that last point and you're one of the most insightful observers and you're familiar with your you've been there many times what does it mean that we're no longer supporting the rebels against assad well first of all it doesn't mean that the u.s. is not involved in the war is anywhere because the pentagon is still involved in the war against isis but it does mean that there has been a deal that has been brokered with russia and with other countries in the region to recognize that assad is not going away and something

but this image in u.s. media, i can definitely say is not -- is one example. a few days ago the leader of the main opposition party just made his march from capital ankara istanbul. he walked all the way with hundreds of people and last summer he organized public the most participation of millions of citizens as they claimed it. the police officers, the police forces assisted them all the way to protect them against provocations or any terrorist attack. so yes, you may have some concerns about the democracy in turkey, that's good. we have friends that have some concerns about our country, but this image is not totally true. thank you. >> i think this might,. [inaudible] i do make, do need to make a point about professional knowledge. -- production of dollars but we see a lot of production of knowledge. that presents turkey, our party and president erdogan as evil enemy. so i find that very disappointing that, especially going back to the example of europe. do you know that our family and social affairs minister wasn't allowed to speak in the netherlands, and s

u.s. are currently right now holding their first face to face talks on the sidelines of the g. twenty summit in pictures where a few moments ago when they spoke to the media scrum just before closing the deal with their respective foreign ministers secretary of state of course as well for the u.s. . for a discussion that meeting has been highly anticipated it's being held behind closed doors we can only guess at this stage what is being discussed we do not have that agenda going underground host afshin rattansi joining us on the program hi there at the leadership that there are there waiting for a positive outcome from that meeting that's what was said to the media what do you think what kind of results can we expect here today. well president a lot needs to be discussed or a lot is going to be discussed we're going to remember the g. twenty itself was born of economic crises the g. twenty itself began in one thousand nine hundred ninety nine in the fallout of the asian crisis and one. economic crisis has followed another but these two leaders are slightly separated from the neo liberal globalisation crises that have been the whole mark of the g. twenty p

next up former national intelligence director james clapper now saying the u.s. media is being tricked by russia into publishing fake news that softer stay with me network b.c. you said they'd received information on a story they suspected had been forged is more of an explanation. at first glance it was just unbelievably red hot. if by any chance this document is real it is so sensitive so classified that i cannot show it to you that it's actually with just a cli difficult to validate something like this first things first kudos to rachel maddow for spotting red flags and that apparently fake documents and questioning the source this fight the potentially explosive headline let's just say it took quite a while for many in the mainstream media to do this with two former officials knowledgeable about the situation tells c.n.n. sources familiar with the matter tell the p.c. dues which of sources are telling us on the condition of anonymity sources oh because they're hiding behind this and they can now do you see us doing things does that mean that you're just going to at

media. appearance it just wants to shock. during the g twenty summit the u.s. administration was left red faced on a few occasions because geographical difficulties. so belgium. is a beautiful secretary of state is. a credible job who just got back from the middle east which is the focus saudi arabia and. we were treated incredibly well got back from the middle east we just. saw what happens as i said we've just launched fifteen missiles heading to iraq where we're headed to syria yes heading toward syria. most our top story year the breaking news in the past few minutes where in the british high court has ruled that arms sales to saudi arabia are legal the government is being challenged by human rights groups who say british weapons are being used by the saudis against civilians in the war in yemen let's go to london love to westminster all of them fully boyhood for the same. usually just tell me what you know about this ruling. will let the courts just ruled that britain can contest continue to sell weapons to saudi arabia so the government foreign policy can

president bush and we had a really great meetings with a lot of people having a wide meantime several u.s. media outlets seem to be struggling to accept president trump's acceptance that russia did not interfere in last year's presidential election such as when c.n.n. talked to america's u.n. ambassador. i think president clinton did exactly what we thought he would do which is did i add this is russia trying to save face i must say i'm pleasantly surprised by the fact that the meeting went as well as it did considering the absolutely hysterical at the sphere in the american media that trump has succumbed that trump in the words of c.n.n. from this afternoon has fallen into putin's trap and i'm glad that trump has turned out to be an adult in this situation i think the problem for the russians so i don't for everybody really is how how much trouble is in charge of his own administration because it's quite clear that you know the cia the pentagon so often wrong footing trumps moves and therefore the some question about whether we can deliver whatever response discuss you plan inclusive of the fac

president trump blasted the u.s. media, refused to back the u.s. television could not xloogs russia enter veered in the election that made him president. >> will you or won't you say that russia interfered? >> i think it was russia and it could have been other people and other countries. it could have been a lot of people interfered. i said it very simply. i think it could have been russia but i think it could have been other countries. i think it's been happening for a long time. many, many years. i think it was russia but i think it was probably other people and or countries and i see nothing wrong that statement. nobody really knows. then he complained president obama did not pun ish russia for hacking the election. >> the things when he found bout this, in terms of if writ russia, found out about it in august. now the election was in november. that's a lot of time. did he nothing about it. >> pressed by our own hallie jackson why he won't different ini have the, different intyly say, that u.s. agencies have been wrong before. >> i remember when

city and lying of this nature the u.s. media kind of falls into place and doesn't really question us there if. you're thought well i mean mexico a has been. drowning in. the violence for the last twenty years. this is a dangerous country it's not the most or the second most dangerous country if i go to chicago i will not be driving down the green for. well that's pretty dangerous that we were in daylight so whether one neighborhood or one city or one country's a dangerous place to go i think it all depends on your perspective razor there's so much danger in mexico obviously comes out of the jug cartels as are the hotbed of violence as the drug cartels are fed by american bankers and h.s.b.c. i just b.c. they funded terrorism in mexico for years and sixty thousand dead mexicans because of h.s.b.c.'s money laundering talk about donald trump doesn't mention that exactly and the other thing is that you have an economy that is in a stagnant mode for the last three decades also this is an economy that doesn't generate jobs you doesn't

here great always great having you with us so first of all can you provide some context for us the u.s. media tends to portray more duro as some evil communist toady. nation of chavez bloody bloody law and and the poor people are just trying to rise up against this crazed commie what's the real story well or is that the real story no i think that's is the exaggeration you know that you see that the whole country is against them in it's actually still a very polarized country so when there is approval rating is twenty percent of the economy is iraq. actually twenty that that's an indicator right there because you know you go next door to brazil the president's approval rating of five ok where is venezuela's economy he's got had the worst contraction practically in latin american history it's got six hundred percent inflation shortages of food medicine how do twenty percent still say he's doing a good job well then really means doing a good job there they're loyal to that party and there's millions more who. still believe that they're going to be better off under that political party and moveme

u.s. media and liberalism in general is consumed by the small thing. language and decorum and memes. when they bring it up, they might not even know what he's talking about but small outreaches are marginalized compared to the big stuff that he talks about. he is, ironically, more of a citizen of the world than president obama was. he was wrong on every worldly thing. but trump seems to understand when an average guy in poland thanks and an average guy in the bronx thinks. >> kimberly: it's obviously an advantage that you have an american president that is relatable. if people are saying this is someone i can connect and identify with. in terms of what you put forward. the working men and women. the democrats. they are leaving them behind. >> jesse: only a billionaire can connect with manhattan -- he connected with poland. it's amazing. president obama goes over there. he puts his jaw up and reads off the teleprompter. he gets a lot of adulation but president trump is literally a man of the polish people. the way he connected the plight of the polish p

has been u.s. media flooded with reports of russian hacking and the 2015 election into the dnc.expect president trump to confront president putin about these allegations question mark -- allegations question mark --allegations? and what would be your response? svetlana: we always say it will for the u.s. there is no evidence it was us interfering into this election. the president will be much more clear on this. do you expect president putin and president trump, although the relationship has been rocky between the two countries over the last few months, to have a good working relationship together? svetlana: i am sure of that. here, where cooperation is crucial, we're here to discuss mostly economy issues. matt: russian delegates are on one side with all the other 19 g-20 members against the u.s. and president trump when it comes to climate. how do you think the issue will be resolved? svetlana: i will not say someone is against anybody else. .e have equal positions it is unfortunate that the priorities of chancellor merkel, climate and migration and trade, are the most difficul

it is a common practice at many press conferences but other media here in the u.s.ncluding msnbc, cnn and the "new york times" not reporting that. take a quick look at comcast. the stock closing down today. company down for the month. let's bring in the political panel. conservative radio host gina loudon and democrat strategist and author of the book america in the age of trump, jessica tarlov. reporters from "the new york times," cnn and msnbc claiming she was cut off after two questions. it was a two question poll, that's what we're hearing. what's the big deal? >> no big deal here either. this is again another desperate and flagrant attempt on the part of the media to distort what is about this president. they're the ones that look like fools every single time. liz, you heard it, it wasn't the president that cut her off. it was their person keeping track of time so other reporters could get questions in. it was being fair and just, and she knew the rules ahead of time. liz: here is nbc putting out this headline, trump downplays russia election meddling yet again
