cable news is dead it was a suicide that was assisted by Donald Trump and it was one that needed to happen to me it's been so frustrating to watch people Republicans over the past 48 Hours say well that's the way it is you have to do better you know that's that's just how it is everybody knows the media's biased this is not the right attitude what happened on that stage on Tuesday night was a complete dereliction of Duty by those moderators they completely abandoned all journalistic integrity and princi and it's deadly serious we're talking about a presidential election here they actively inserted themselves to the point where you actually have to wonder whether they made a conscious decision at ABC this is the night we're going to do it we're just going to we're just going to lift the dress up and show them everything that we're not journalists that we are partisan hacks you know I always thought judging by David M's ABS that he was a great journalist but I who is David mure anyway you know he's managed to fly under the radar yeah that's one way to put it because he lets his programmers his producers and his content selections speak for his bias you know media Research Center did a study right before the debate it dropped showing that I think it was 92% of their coverage on Kamala was positive 92 or 93 97% of their coverage on Trump was negative and they said that ABC was the worst of the three nightly newscasts NBC more fair than ABC CBS as well so he got chosen to do the debate and when David Mir was out there without the producers selecting the stories all of which were left and you're left to say okay let's see you David Mir who are you and of course we already knew because he has a say on on content selection on his show but he really let us Fleek freak flag fly and and what they did up there I mean I'll just take the one moment which is really driving me insane they asked Trump about his comment that he lost by a whisker recently on a podcast fair question that's fine you can ask him that and Trump says well I was being sarcastic he actually fact checked him with I didn't detect any sarcasm what what are you are you like one of those emojis from the Emoji Movie that can DET that's not sarcasm no that's a truth teller that it was the most inappropriate thing I've ever seen and it masqueraded as a fact check and it of course trip Trump up and just give you one other thing just another moment of the debate they asked kamla Harris about the fact that they did nothing about immigration until the last 6 months right obviously an election ploy to make the the numbers look better they turn to her first she does her John Wayne routine like well I was tough on that their border back when I was an AG and now again sure sure Jan well she does have a gun so I kind of get it yeah sure she does so she gives that routine and then she immediately pivots to his rally St sink and people leave and of course for Trump that's like I know he can't no here's a liver snap yes I know right and you're like no Trump come back come back I know no know don't do it so he did it he did it and then he did and you're like pivot back to immigration this is your best issue this is her worst issue pivot pivot pivot so he starts pivoting and that's what we got into the dogs and the cats okay I mean they're eating the pets I me come on I mean it is a thing but maybe not our best example like you know the Babylon be had a headline the other day saying like Democrats fact check Trump no no dogs and cats being killed just women and children so he pivots back to immigration with the dogs and the cats fact check not happening another inappropriate fact check this is a this is a matter Up For Debate right now we've had dozens now at this point of witness testimonials saying it is true and we have one unnamed city manager saying not that I could prove well what that's not that's not a a proof that it's not happening another inappropriate fact check so he screws up Trump's momentum and then he interrupts to go to KLA Harris I'm thinking okay this is it where he's going to go back to her and say the question was why did you wait until 6 months be no one's given me an answer you know we've done rallies and we've done dogs what's the answer and instead of saying that to her what does he say your response madam Harris Madame vice president what that's not the toss so what does she do does she get up there and say Let me let me give you an answer let me she says 200 Republicans have endorsed me a and now we're off on that course and we never got back right I mean to be fair Dick Cheney was one of them yeah that's right like what do you m did you ever think you'd wake up in a country where KLA Harris was bragging about Darth Vader's endorsement like what yeah and they love him now the left loves some dick chany and his horrible daughter the whole thing is like you're blowing my mind of all the Republicans who could endorse yes I'll take Dick Cheney just for the charm alone it's like what it's so true and by the way the left you listen to leftist media and they really think that's going to make a difference like they don't think that that that Trump's going to recover from the Dick Cheney endorsement of or the Li Cheney lot of lot of Liz Cheney Republicans left it's just crazy I mean it is a kind of cleansing moment for the Republican Party actually it's like getting a giant bald splinter out after 40 years do you know what I mean it's like here's what we'll do all the people in our party who love killing people for profit you can have and she's like that's right enjoy we've got a big tent the water's fine well look at the Lincoln project they're still out there doing these terrible ads about Trump after their pedophilia scandal like what how that how they survive that there was some guy there who was accused of behaving very inappropriately with young men I don't know exactly how young but the point is there's still Democrats giving them millions of dollars and they're running ads against Trump like he's the bad one you get Bill Crystal and Dick Cheney what a trade so awesome we get Bobby Kennedy I think it's fair Adam kininger so um so just to just to you're the best I just want to thank you for the conversation has just put me in a great mood and it's wonderful to see you but I want to um just end on getting your views on a topic that I think is really hopeful and great so you have just painted a devastating portrait of the American news media and you're doing it from a place of deep knowledge and experience I mean you're Megan Kelly like you're not making you're not guessing about this you work there um but then you leave NBC in the nastiest most dishonest as I said exit I've ever seen never seen anyone treated the way you were treated and then you built this kind of Empire by yourself and it's it's an amazing story and it's a tribute to your grit and your talent your native talent but it's also a commentary on like where we're going yeah I mean I'm not I didn't even think to call anybody at NBC News to join on this tour because people don't even know who works there yeah right so maybe your life is is a testament to what the future of media will be and maybe that's great thank you my life and yours Tucker I think what we're proving is that the future of media is independent it's a direct relationship between the consumers and the journalist of choice people will make up their minds on an individual basis who do I trust who do I trust for news and information and who don't I trust and more and more especially post pandemic people are real realizing you can't trust these large corporations they have agendas that they are secretly and not so secretly trying to shove down your throat without owning it you have an individual you can make up your own mind just is she a truth teller is he a truth teller do they take big risks and go against the grain even when it might hurt them do they apologize to me when they got something wrong or own it are they self-deprecating you're like the most successful SL self-deprecating person I know which show your humility and you want someone with humility telling you about the news because sometimes we do get it wrong and we need to be able to say all right that one not my best that's and the audience is forgiving but you don't want people who are agenda driven especially not with some corporate overlords agenda so it was funny I I was listening to this podcast recently and you came up they're very angry at you and um not the first time as a result they were trying to say that you he has no influence that he's he's very popular but with no influence and this made me laugh so literally you had the White House weighing in on Tucker's interview last week okay like that it has absolutely no influence but everyone in the country feels need to comment on everything he does and on top of that you just look at the don't don't take my word for it cuz I'm your friend you guys tell me who is more influential Tucker Carlson or Wolf Blitzer right truly like who has more sway with an audience right like I'll take myself like yours truly or like Ma brazinski I I like my auns I'm I'm good on that cage match nobody talks about these people now maybe a show here or there will make news but cable news is dead it was a suicide that was assisted by Donald Trump and it was one that needed to happen [Laughter] I can't improve on that thanks for watching our YouTube channel we hope
