in terms of public policy -- walter cronkite said he moved the political needle.is change policy somehow? >> i don't know if it changes policy. i don't know how these people respond. they want to dismiss people like jimmy kimmel. i would like to see bill cassidy go back on and talk to jimmy kimmel now, and jimmy would get into his heart, i think. when it comes down to it, it's not about money anymore. >> first of all, comparing late-night guys to walter cronkite. >> walter cronkite. >> i think jimmy could stand up very well, because i think he would cite the specifics of his situation. unlike walter cronkite, he did not have a son in vietnam. this is about his own kid. this is about his own experience. that hits people in a different way. >> cassidy is going to say this bill takes care of it, and it protests pre-existing conditions and does a lot of good things. >> and jimmy would cite all the associations that says it doesn't. i think he would say i know from a lot of people in this situation, and he talked to the doctors, what would happen if these laws changed.

caller: the days of walter comp right -- walter cronkite are gone.he news media leaning one way or another has added to this divisiveness in our country and made us further divided. host: thank you for joining us. sounds like tim is listening to c-span radio. here go to maryland and -- we go to maryland and bryan. caller: a previous caller commented that the report of 21 states being hacked into must be a lie, but with the caller did not consider is that there is value in hacking into a system beyond altering the data that is on it. recentmple, in the breach of the credit information, no information was altered, but they copy information of over 100 million american citizens, which causes damage to all those victims through potential identity theft. if hackers breached 21 systems, even if they did not alter votes, they now have intelligence on the 21 systems. they may have access to data faster than others can, and they could potentially hacked into the system in response to seeing stuff happen in real time. host: our caller talking about the equifax

that's not nearly what it used wase when walter cronkite doing it, where it was the only source of news you say is absolutely valid. people are getting their news all day long. i think the 6:30 news now gives you further insight into the news as opposed to just reporting the news, and i think they do well. they do better in times of crises. obviously, during the hurricanes, people want to know what is going on. but with all you get online, they become a bit less important, but 23 million people is still a lot of people. of your cbsre head show 60 minutes, are there announcements you want to make on replacement? leslie: no, we are talking about what to do with the future but no announcements. we are not making news today, david, no matter what you say.

that's not nearly what it used to be when walter cronkite and huntley and brinkley were doing it, whereonly source of news. because, you know, what you say is absolutely valid. people are getting their news all day long, so i think the 6:30 news now sort of gives you further insight into the news as opposed to just reporting the news. and i think they do well. they do better in times of crises. obviously during the hurricanes, people want to see what's going on. but now with the advent of these big cable news networks, and also with all that you get online, they become a bit less important, but 23 pillion people are still a lot of people. david: so you have recently had your head of your cbs evening news show go to "60 minutes." do you have any announcements you want to make today on the replacement? leslie: nope, we have an acting person doing the job, and we're talking about what we can do for the future. but we have no announcements. david: you don't want anybody -- leslie: we're not making news today, no matter what you say. david: ok. you wouldn't consider having a private equity p

world where it didn't happen until walter cronkite told me it happened.ekeepers like that for our information. people get news all over the place, my kids don't have a tv. when i asked young people how they get their news, facebook, there are friends, all sorts of different ways to get news. therefore, we live in an environment where we risk being informed by fake news, or alternative news, whatever phrase you want to use. on the russia issue, nothing will surprise me anymore. david: that was jeh johnson, he and i spoke yesterday. what we know about the gop game plan for tax reform, and how that will impact the economy. coming up next. gemma: --this is bloomberg. ♪ ♪ we have been talking about republican leaders in congress being eager to move forward with tax reform. we should expect to see a framework by the end of the month. appears a preview of what it could look like. we haven't got much in the way of specifics, paul ryan talking about this at a news conference. what are we talking that this won't be a full plan? >> and maybe a page or a couple of pa

walter cronkite shook his hand. >> the courage to make you the man who saved the world. >> petrov a hero in the west. the soviet military reprimanded him'not filling out his logbook to. day his son confirmed, stanislav (male #1) it's a little something i've done every night since i was a kid, empty my pocket change into this old jar. it's never much, just what's left after i break a dollar. and i never thought i could get quality life insurance with my spare change. neither did i. until i saw a commercial for the colonial penn program. imagine people our age getting life insurance at such an affordable rate. it's true. if you're 50 to 85, you can get guaranteed acceptance life insurance through the colonial penn program for less than 35 cents a day, just $9.95 a month. there's no medical exam and no health questions. you know, the average cost of a funeral is over $8,300. now that's a big burden to leave your loved ones. as long as you're 50 to 85, you cannot be turned down because of your health. your premium never goes up and your benefit never goes down due to age. plus, your coverage

and, you know, we're not talking about walter cronkite anymore. the news we're getting can be and is being suggested tainted particularly by the russians. >> at the hearing, what do you want to know. >> i think twitter has got to turn over to us their accounts. that they have identified as being fake muse. i think we should also take advantage of the oxford study that was released this morning about 1% of twitter accounts for the last few days of the election, but suggests that 40% of what was put on twitter during that time was fake news. since most of those were on twitter, are either news sources, news makers are news outlets. that becomes just an echo chamber for bad data being spread publically. >> little bit of a slippery slope. >> what are you going to ask for and look for in terms of who might have helped the russians and whoever did this activity find the right places to be and what markets to be. >> that's really a very excellent question because we do know the of votes in the states of wisconsin, pennsylvania, michigan, ohio, 100,000 vo

leslie: they are still watched , 24 million and nights, not nearly what it used to be when walter cronkitet, where it was the only source of news. peopleu say is valid, get their news all day long. i think the 6:30 news now gives you further insight into the news as opposed to just reporting the news, and i think they do well. they do better in times of crises.obviously, during hurricanes , people want to see what is going on, but with all you get online, they become a bit less important but 23 million people are still a lot. david: you are head of beer cbs news -- head of your cbs show 60 minutes, are there announcements you want to make on replacement? leslie: no, we are talking about what to do with the future but no announcements. we are not making news today, david, no matter what you say.

. >> once walter cronkite retires, all three network news anchors within a couple of years switch over have been the last gasp where people liked and trusted the media. >> nuclear arms and how to prevent global destruction expected to be the major topic of president reagan's news conference tonight. that conference will be nationally televised within the hour. leslie stahl is at the white house. >> the white house is hoping -- >> in the '80s, women came into the newsroom. when i first joined, it was '72. there are very few. by the '80s, there were more and more. the decade of the '80s was still a time of sink or swim. you had to be resilient in your own way to survive in a period when you were going up against a lot of people who still didn't think women had what it took. >> these are some of the most famous faces in broadcasting. all of them happen to be women. >> the best producers, i'm going to get fired -- the best producers at cbs news are women. and they're at the level of taking hold and making decisions about individual pieces. they are not yet executive producers of all the ne

nightom that, that very on the cbs evening news with walter cronkite, because it was out on the wireervices that i did it, they did the story. it is in the media -- amy: you refuse to talk to them. >> i know this is hard to believe, but i was really shy, a really shy kid. you know that a little bit, don't you? kind of? on a personal level, i very much like this. and back then, i was worse. so i did not go on the cbs evening news, but they did the story anyways and it caused this up for all over the country. we had a great, very role left philip hart. he called me and said, i want to introduce a bill to fix this loophole in the civil rights act and i want you to come down and testify. i'm like, no. i just told him my parents will let me leave the house. i did not go to d.c. to testify. hearings were being held all over the country. a federal judge takes or the tax-exempt status of the oaks club. liquor licenses were being pulled from their clubs. and yearso this later, they are forced to accept all americans into the organizations regardless of of their skin. it was such a lesson to l

. >> this would be like russia being able to control walter cronkite's broadcast in the late 60s, earlynot be talking about r the and sputnik. they're ratings on their own are fine. give them a social media lift and. >> their turn on investment on this is incredible. they spend some amount of money, but the amount of influence they've been able to have, leveraging social media is extraordinary. >> you have a question for jim. >> jim, i'm just wondering if you see any significant negatives for the russians in terms of the exposure of these activities. this is a covert action that is now anything, but covert. their techniques are exposed. cuto cutouts, the people they use to distribute information is exposed. do you think that's going to hurt them in the long run. >> we saw in france that it wasn't automatic. the strategy they appeared to use again. it's not just rt and these other online actors on that and around facebook. they didn't succeed in france. germany there's evidence of merkel heading in that direction, don't see the same level of activity. there's also no indication this is g

i was comparing it to cbs with walter cronkite.s, i don't think he ever got over 50% of americans using him as their primary news source. i'm sure maybe 30, 33, 40% or whatever, but facebook gets overall half of americans get their news primary source from facebook. and it's a wild wild west. and if they aren't -- if they're going to allow their company to be used by our enemies across the globe to affect the outcome of democratic elections and therefore impact or democracy, if they can't regulate themselves, somebody else is going to have to. >> nobody is ever seeing the global control, the global saturation that facebook has. nobody has ever seen two sad factors. one you pointed out over 50% of the people in this country receive the bulk of their news from facebook. the lack of editorial control within facebook is shocking. >> former president obama reportedly took steps to personally warn facebook ceo mark zuckerberg act the spread of fake news in the wake of last year's presidential election. according to "the washington post,"

when walter cronkite said that is just the way it is americans , believed it. there was a neutral source for information that people could count on. that excluded certain voices from the left and the right. but now what we have is a media ecosystem in which republicans are trusting certain sources. democrats are trusting certain sources, and there is little trust in the media as an institution at all. that lack of trust is representative of a larger lack of trust americans have an -- in almost all elite institutions. -- not just say america. it is happening around the world. this lack of intermediaries, right, this league of intermediaries that squelch speech or set the ground rules for what could be transferred from political actors to the mass public is what makes the problem of fake news possible. everybody who talks about fake news hates the moniker of fake news. you can count me as well. fake news is not really news. it is describing a heterogeneous set of phenomenon. on the one hand you have the daily show or the onion. satire, which is fake news, and the
