Brandnew democratic field. For the better part of a year, former Vice President joe biden dominated the polls and the other candidates in the race attacked him from the left which is weird to see. Biden still believed in Law Enforcement and International Borders and he opposed forced busing along with virtually every other american, so he was august and one of those right wing extremist from the obama administration. Thats what they were telling you on the debate stage. It was bizarre. Thankfully that line of attack is over because joe bidens president ial campaign itself is in effect over. Nobody thinks biden is going to be the democratic nominee. Elizabeth warren is the front runner now. Thats not contested. The race is hers to lose. So during last nights debate, arrives on the stage decided to help her do just that. Lose. Watch. Your signature, senator, is to have a plan for everything. Except this. At least bernies being honest in saying how hes going to pay for this and that taxes are going to go up and im sorry, elizabeth, but you have not said that. Im going to say somethings probably going to offend some people here but im the other one on the stage thats gotten anything really big down. I appreciate elizabeths work but again the difference between a plan and a pipe dream is something that you can get done. I went on the floor and got you votes. I got votes for that bill. I convince people to vote for it. Speak i want to give a reality check here to elizabeth because no one on the stage wants to protect billionaires, not even the billionaire wants to protect billionaires. Sometimes i think senator warren is more focused on being punitive or pitting a part of the country against each other. Tucker she is punitive . When beto orourke, mr. Armed federal agents coming to your house calls you up for divisive attacks, its time to pay attention. In fact he makes a fair point. The main reason warren has surpassed Bernie Sanders in the hearts of primary voters despite close academic programs is that shes the one far more willing to dissent into the filth of identity politics. Bernie is an ideologue. There are some things he just wont say. Elizabeth warren will say anything. Minutes ago she tweeted this every person deserves to be treated with dignity and respect and that starts with using correct pronouns. Im elizabeth. My pronouns are she, her, hers. In case youre wondering, in case there was any questions at all. That kind of posturing is central to Elizabeth Warrens campaign. Shes happy to tell you and often does that youre worthless or youre with more face on how you were born. Unfortunately that works right now. In the democratic party. One thing a syllabus trickles with wanting is not willing to say is how much or singleparent Government Health care will co cost. Trillions of dollars, nobody disputes that. As a mathematical matter, theres no way to raise that kind of money without hiking taxes on the middle class. Simple arithmetic. And yet for some reason, warren refuses to admit it. Watch. You have not specified how youre going to pay for the most expensive plan, medicare for all. Where will you raise taxes on the middle class to pay for it,s or no . Ive made clear what my principles are. That is cost will go up for the wealthy and for big corporatio corporations. And for hardworking middleclass families, costs will go down. Mayor buttigieg, you say senator warren has been evasive about shes good to pay for medicare for all. Whats your response. We heard it tonight. A yes or no question that didnt get a yes or no answer. Tucker save the day. There are a lot of moments and debates that seem like a huge deal at the time. Everyone is yapping about them but in the end, turned out to become fully meaningless. This is not one of those momen moments. Health care is always at the top of voters concerns and sort taxes for that matter. Elizabeth warren cant even explain her own signature plan to rearrange the entire American Health care system, she cant win. Even a postdebate msnbc panel acknowledged as much. I thought she seemed a litte petulant when she was being challenged. A little . A little. [laughter] as Bernie Sanders says, she just wont go there and she was pummeled for it. They attacked her and she was uncomfortable. She did not handle it very well. Tucker isnt really that bad for elizabeth one last night . Well see. She deftly got better treatment than joe biden i got. Journalist dont like joe biden. Biden has zero allies in americas woke newsrooms. Warren has plenty of allies pretending to be journalists. This morning, nyu journalism professor, jay rosen, a guy whose name often pops up despite no talent whatsoever, demand of the reported stop asking specific questions about warrens policies. Again, a journalism professor telling you not to ask questions. The make Elizabeth Warren say she would raise taxes on the new class question should be incredibly color for the journalist to keep asking. Amazingly Margaret Sullivan of the Washington Post agreed with that. She wrote journalists are kindly doing President Trumps work for him when they insist on trying to pin down senator Elizabeth Warren warren declare she would raise taxes td medicare for all. It is legitimate to dig into the cost but not in a way that creates a nice g. O. P. Campaign ad. Did you listen to that . Two journalist telling you if the answer hurts democrats, dont ask the question. Dont tell your readers or viewers what the truth is if it increases the chances that donald trump could get reelected. Is that journalism . No. It is pure propaganda. It is the definition of propaganda. Jay rosen, journalism professor telling journalists not to ask questions. Unbelievable. Dana perino always asks questions. She is of course our colleague here at fox. She posts the Daily Briefing. Shes our goto person for postdebate analysis. That was unbelievable. I hadnt seen that jay rosen on the sullivan piece. Its pretty remarkable. Tucker to admit that. I have got certain Strong Political opinions, very strong. I host a whole show based on them but as a journalist, which i actually am, its impossible to imagine telling someone dont ask that question because a good help the other side. I mean, who things like that . Partisans think like that. Its not good. Thanks for having me on. I love to talk about the debates. I think that warren found out that shes not the professor anymore. She doesnt like to be challenged. Amy klobuchar and Pete Buttigieg basically said its not fair for you to say that none of us have courageous ideas. They really went after her. You dont usually get that at harvard. You are the professor. Its kind of ace gold, like when Tulsi Gabbard was talking. How dare you. Pamela harris, why didnt you sign my letter . My chain letter to get the president off twitter and she was dismissive of it. A kind of came across as its her way or the wrong way. Tucker definitely. Its not unappealing look and i wonder if that posture played any role in what was i thought a generally surprising developing. Bernie sanders gets the endorsement of alexandria ocasiocortez. I didnt see that coming. Is it significant . I didnt see it either and i do think it was the only big surprise of the night. Partly because two weeks ago many people, including the media, were saying wow after the heart attack, Bernie Sanders, hes done, basically wrapping up his campaign. That didnt happen. He had a ton of energy. He looked great. The new look at this endorsement. He announces that alexandria ocasiocortez and the rest of the squad, they are going to endorse him and they are going to appear at a rally with him. They have cut ads for him. That was a genuine surprise. But i still think that its a nice get for bernie. But his goose is cooked. He can be very happy that his ideas will live on. But i dont think that Elizabeth Warren would necessarily even want aocs endorsement right now. If she thinks shes going to go into a general election. Tucker it thats interesting. It was the significance other than being Compelling Television of the exchange between beto orourke and Pete Buttigieg on guns . They had a really interesting backandforth. They at least faced each other and talked. You could see there was some disdain between the two of them. What beto had tried to do was to take the issue that the left mostly agrees on, gun control. He went so far to the left that he pulled everybody basically back to the center and he is the lone person on the left on mandatory gun confiscation. Pete buttigieg is saying thats not going to work. He was saying i am more practical. I want to get a little something. Dont have to be so pure. I think beto orourke is a zombie candidacy right now. Its dead. He might not know it yet. Tucker finally, biden. You and i had a lot of conversations about joe biden, whether or not this is a real campaign. As of now, is it . Good gets better and bad gets worse. I think last night was not a great night for him. Now, i can say that. I can look that said all think was a great debate. However, his base of support has remained pretty strong. Keep in mind, he has now spent more money than he has raised. Hes been out raised four of the other candidates have more cash on hand that he does right now. The other thing that we didnt even talk about, there was a new entrant last night, tom steyer, the billionaire. He spent over 40 million to get on the debate stage. He wears the same tie every day, though he has five of them, because hes a billionaire and he can afford five ties. If you can afford five times, i dont know if those would be the five that you bought. Tucker you are sweet. Thats nice made up put it. It would deftly not be. Speaking of billionaires, i want to tell her audience, dana has an interview with the man who founded facebook, sitting down with mark zuckerberg. I can think of about 100 questions to ask. I know that you will ask. That interview airs friday the Daily Briefing 2 00 p. M. Eastern this friday. If i see you tomorrow, i will find out what your questions are. Tucker have already talked. Great to see you, dana. Thank you so much. Elizabeth warren isnt simply wary of telling the truth about her Health Care Plan auto cost. She seems to have a turbulent relationship with the truth in general, certainly on topics pertaining to her biography. As you know, she lied for years about being an american indian. Last night was the oneyear anniversary anniversary of her dna test. We celebrated silently on the show. She lied about getting fired for getting pregnant. A story about a polio stricken colleague chasing her around the office. Its hard to find an episode from her life that she hasnt spun into a tall tale. Tonight we have no example. The story that warren tells about her parents his marriage. For details, we go to lisa boothe. Hi, tucker. Its almost comical. As we saw in the debate last night, she came under scrutiny for her policy positions of not being honest about some but was missing and absent from the criticism were all these lies that shes told about her bio and theres this one. Listen to this. My daddy was in his teens when he fell in love with my mother. She was a beautiful girl who played the piano. He was head over heels in love with her and wanted to marry her. His family was bitterly opposed to that because she was part native american. Eventually my parents eloped. A genealogist, cherokee genealogist looked in to it. Theres no evidence of cherokee ancestry and her family. Whats more, Elizabeth Warren has been saying these are the stories that my family members have told me. This is why i believe these things. However, this genealogist also looked into the underlying facts that she has had about the story and found them to not be true as well. For instance, grant herring, her grandfather, had a great relationship with a guy who was a member of the cherokee nation. They went golfing together. Cornell attended her grandparents 25th anniversary in 1936. Additionally her parents wedding announcement was made in the local newspaper. It seemed like it was a happy event, not some thing it was shameful to the family. A lot of inconsistencies and they found nothing about the story was true. Tucker nothing about the story was true. Ive heard that before. Its a familiar pattern. A little bit. Tucker lisa boothe, great to see you tonight. Thanks, tucker. Tucker americas former ambassador to ukraine may have ordered government personnel to monitor journalists and allies of President Trump. Chief breaking news correspondent Trace Gallagher has the latest on the story. At the center is marie yovanovitch, former u. S. Ambassador to ukraine appointed by obama and ousted by President Trump. For a jovanovich made headlines last week and she testified before the House Intel Committee as part of the democrats impeachment inquiry. Two sources with close knowledge of the situation confirmed to Tucker Carlson tonight that in the spring of 2019 the u. S. Embassy in ukraine requested that several journalists and people close to President Trump have their social media accounts monitored. This happen following news reports that yovanovitch had an antitrump bias. The list includes 13 people including our own sean hannity, laura ingraham, lou dobbs, as well as fox news contributors sara carter and dan bongino along with Reed Giuliani and donald trump jr. According to the sources, the monitoring lasted for at least a few days before stopping because the state department is not allowed to conduct this sort of monitoring of u. S. Citizens obviously. The conservative government watchdog Judicial Watch has now filed a freedom of information act request to the state department seeking any and all records regarding, concerning, or related to the monitoring of any u. S. Based journalists, reporter, or media commentator by any employee or office of the department of state between january 1, 2019, and the present. Judicial watch that they have information that indicates yovanovitch directly ordered subordinates to target this list of people. Tucker. Tucker shocking story. Trace gallagher, thank you. In a few minutes megyn kelly joins us for her first televised interview since she left nbc. We will ask about Harvey Weinstein and a lot of things that happened at nbc. First, last nights debate made clearer than ever that the press truly hates a candidate called Tulsi Gabbard. Whys that . How she responds. She joins us next. Here, it all starts with a simple. Hello hi how can i help . A data plan for everyone. Everyone . Everyone. Lets send to everyone [ camera clicking ] wifi up there . Ahhh. Sure, why not . Howd he get out . a camera might figure it out. That was easy glad i could help. At xfinity, were here to make life simple. Easy. Awesome. So come ask, shop, discover at your xfinity store today. Tucker joe bidens president ial campaign is in lusitania territory. He is still traveling in style. According to recent disclosures, bidens campaign spent more than 900,000 on private jets just in the Third Quarter of this year. An nationwide campaign for a country of 320 million, one in every 16 from bidens Campaign Treasury went to flying private. You can hardly blame joe biden. He has a message hes desperate to disseminate as far and wide as he can. The message . We much confront the existential threat of global warming. Cant wait for us to take on whats coming on whats happening to our climate. It cant wait. Tucker it cant wait. You know it can wait, flying in coach like a troll an existential threat to the entire plant planet is nothing compared to the comfort of a president ial candidate. Elizabeth warren versus the field isnt the only battle that unfolded last night. There was Tulsi Gabbard versus the entire u. S. Press corps. Unlike virtually everyone else in her party, gabbard believes in keeping america out of pointless foreign entitlements and for that belief, she has been tarred repeatedly and very aggressively as a foreign agent. Last night she hit back. New york times and cnn have also smeared veterans like myself for calling for an end to this regime change war. Just two days ago, the New York Times put out an article saying that im a russian asset and a assad apologist and all these different smears. This morning and cnn commentators that on National Television that i am an asset of russia. Completely despicable. Tucker yeah. Cnn doesnt care for her either. We know that for a fact because recent footage from project veritas shows a cnn employee conceding that the network is institutionally hostile to Tulsi Gabbard. Watch this. Think the one they dont like, they dont like Tulsi Gabbard. Because she supports assad and shes not taking the conventional route when it comes to Foreign Policy. Shes actually pretty liberal. But when it comes to that one position. Tucker congresswoman Pelosi Gabbard of hawaii joins us. Congresswoman, you just heard that, finally found the road. There is a cnn employee saying that for taken and unconventional Foreign Policy position, you are the one democratic candidate that cnn doesnt like. Does that surprise you . It doesnt. You know, i think its kind of absurd actually that as we saw in the days leading up to the debate last night, both the New York Times and cnn both ran hit pieces. Today, the day after the debate, we see more of these hit pieces coming out. For them to sit there and try to portray themselves as neutral arbiters, as objective and independent entities working with the dnc to carry out a legitimate debate is frankly just a joke. Its one of the reasons why ive been calling for Nonprofit Organization like the league of women voters to actually host these debates in a way that actually serves the interests of voters, not the prophet, the prophet bearing corporate interests of the corporate media. Tucker i couldnt agree more. So just for our viewers who maybe havent followed this, when we say youve been attacked by the New York Times and cnn, its not a tax like they are saying your Health Care Plan is too expensive. They are saying that you are working for a foreign power against americas interests, that you are a traitor to the country. The New York Times piece essentially said that. What is this about . This is exactly what happens to those like myself who are trying to end this regime change war in syria, who are calling for an end to our countrys policy being the world police, bring about an end to these regime change wars. This is something thats not just happening to me. You know, when they are issuing these smear attacks, really what they are doing is smearing anyone who is calling for an end to these regime change wars, including veterans who i meet almost everything the day all across this country who are not pacifists. They understand and know firsthand the cost of war and who are strongly, strongly calling for our country to put an end to these counterproductive regime change wars. So when they are issuing these smears and calling me a traitor to my country, they are essentially issuing these smears and attacks to every veteran who has been willing to lay their lives down in service to our country. Tucker you know, there are many things we dont agree on that one of the things im so, so pathetic to what you and what youre doing this because ive been there. I know what youre saying. Its real. The one subject they wont accept any deviation on. So you deserve credit i think for your bravery and going forward. Thank you. Tulsi gabbard, great to see you tonight. Thanks, tucker. Tucker its been almost a full year since megyn kelly left nbc news. Shes not done a single tv interview since. She has a lot to say. She joins us next. Tucker megyn kelly was a fixture at fox. In early 2017, she moved nbc were among many other things she anchored the third hour of the today show. It turned out to be a turbulent year. Executive caught covering up for q6 criminal Harvey Weinstein. The networks most famous anchor, matt lauer, for the building after he was implicated in a laundry list of misdeeds. An awful lot of drama for one network. Megyn kelly was right there to see all of it. She left her show last october. She has not done a single televised interview since. We are happy to have her on the set tonight. Megyn, good to see you. Good to be with you. Tucker the ronan farrow book adds details to what we essentially knew which is that nbc executives, practically head of nbc news, covered up for Harvey Weinstein. Heres what ronan farrows book says. I want your reaction to this quote. Pharaoh brings a recording by the nypd to nbc and an eight Harvey Weinstein admits that he abused an italian model. On tape. No off chaim responds my view is that the tape and Harvey Weinstein grabbing a ladies a couple years ago, thats not national news. Does that surprise you, having worked there . Because nothing surprises me anymore. In this industry. As i watched the ronan story unfold, the one thing i wanted to know is what did they know and when did they know it. Ive been reporting on the store even while i was at nbc. I talked to ronan. I talked to his producer, i talked to rose mcgowan. I talked to many Harvey Weinstein victims and accusers and was getting to the bottom of what nbc knew while i was there. And then just independently. The question is what did they know about matt lauer prior to the time the woman came forward who was ultimately his downfall . She came forward. Her name is Brooke Nevils. Made an allegation against matt lauer and the companies whole defense to ronans book essentially has been thats the first we knew about matt lauer. There was no deal between us and Harvey Weinstein to cover up for Harvey Weinstein so that he wouldnt report on matt lauer. Because we didnt know that matt lauer was doing this. We had no notice of it whatsoever. Tucker is not a plausible claim . If they had no settlements of any kind and no complaints about matt lauer prior to Brooke Nevils coming forward, sure, it might be. But is it true . Here is what they are saying. No settlements of any kind. No settlements. Thats illegal sleightofhand. You can get paid out as a sexualharassment victim in something other than a settlement. You can get whats called enhanced severance. Thats the situation where the receptionist is suddenly getting a sevenfigure goodbye. She was an amazing typist. It is severance. Its not a settlement. By the way, if you could be really quiet about nbc forever more, we would really appreciate it. Thats what we need to know. They havent gotten specific about what monies were paid out to home. Show us the money. The number one thing that needs to happen now is they need to release any and all matt lauer accusers from their confidentiality agreements. Nbc says it has nothing to hide. Great. Lets not hide anything. Show us all of the agreements, the enhanced severance agreements reached or at least the number so we can see which ones pop out and which ones are super high. Are they all women . Do they all have a connection with matt lauer . Release the women from their confidentiality obligations. Tucker this probably would be known right now if the network had conducted an independent investigation. Last september, early september, you on your show on the air and nbc called for an independent investigation into these allegations. Technically have the tape of you doing it. Theres a question about whether there should be an outside investigator to take a hard look at this. Between the investigation nbc did internally on matt lauer to know this, theres a question of the faith and confidence of the public and the reporting of nbc on matters involving itself. To me as a lawyer, its just always better if you send it outside. Then people can have more faith in it and if theres nothing to hide, you have no worries about eight. You have nothing to worry about. Tucker peoples jaws hung open when he said that. There have been a couple published accounts that say you were fired from nbc a little more than a month later for saying that. Its that in mind, without having you comment on it, i want to get your response on something that an anchor at msnbc did two nights ago. Chris hayes addressed the credibility of the president of nbc news directly in her show. He said this. Oppenheimer and others have maintained the weinstein story was never broadcast because it lacked sufficient on the records were synced after nbc supported ronan farrows assignment. Ronan farrow walked out of nbc news after working on the weinstein story and within two months published an incredible article at the new yorker, the path of least resistance is always there. Beckoning seductively with an entirely plausible cover story. You have bigger fish to fry. The story isnt ready. The its the ease of the path that makes it the enemy to the kind of work it we as journalists are supposed to do. Tucker he is saying essentially what you said. He doesnt trust the management nbc news. Given your extremes, do you think is in jeopardy of being fired . No comment on that. I will say the question is open as to whether they put dollars ahead of decency. If they were more interested in protecting their start anchor them protecting the women of the company. There needs to be an outside investigation into this company. They investigated themselves. That doesnt work. Fox news had an outside investigator. Cbs news had an outside investigator. Npr, the nfl. This is how its done. You get somebody on the outside who can be trusted. What happened here if you got Noah Oppenheimer who now they are pulling his College Writings were he said women love to be prayed on. Apparently he thinks women love to be preyed upon. Noah has said that i deeply regret it. People do write down things in college. And they say dumb things. Trust me. But thats the person who is investigating. Andy lack im sorry, the reporting that ronan has put out is that there is an accuser, a woman named jane wallace who said she was bullied out of a job and working for andy years ago. She had a consensual affair with him but then she says she was retaliated against. She says she says humorlessly preyed on female underlings. If these have people overseeing the investigation into nbc. They had the general counsel to the investigation. How are people supposed to trust it . Thats why he got to get some at any outside. Tucker theres a striking irony. Even as the management of nbc clearly ignored Sexual Misconduct and abuse within their own building, they seemed to pump up and abet wild and unsubstantiated allegations of Sexual Misconduct against people in politics they dont like. I watched you on a panel at nbc when you work there last year on kavanaugh, the last are you covered. Savannah guthrie, chuck todd. You are the only person on the panel who held out the possibility that maybe Brett Kavanaugh was not a rapi rapist. Did you feel like the only person capable of being objective . To go theres no question that the reporting that was done on nbc on someone like julie swetnick, completely discredited alleged third accuser against kavanaugh. A woman whose story had tons of holes in it. There was a date rape and then everybody saw it and nobody side. She imploded on the air. They went to air with that story. With far less trepidation then they showed going to air on the Harvey Weinstein story for which they had tapes. They had tapes. They had witnesses. They had women on the record. Rose mcgowan was just one of them. There is a question of why. Was it political, as you suggest . Was it Something Else . Was it to protect somebody internally . Someone who wasnt the women of the company. What ronan is suggesting is they covered up for one sexual predator, Harvey Weinstein, in order to protect another, matt lauer. They deny all of it and nbc has put out several statement saying that ronan is a conspiracy theorist and this is all nonsense and hes got an ax to grind. But if thats true and theres nothing to hide, then get an outside investigator. Tucker yeah, if theres nothing to hide. Theres more to talk about. We will take a quick break. We are not finished. Up next, we will ask about what appears to be really an epidemic of political journalism in this country and whether the dnc ought to cancel its next debate on msnbc. Well be right back. With va Mortgage Rates near record lows, i want to tell as many veterans as possible about newdays va streamline refi. Its the closest thing to automatic savings that weve ever offered. At newday, veterans can refinance their mortgage with no income verification, no appraisal and no out of pocket expenses. And weve extended our Call Center Hours so that every veteran can take advantage of these near record low rates. Tucker welcome back. Megyn kelly hasnt been on tv for years and she has a lot to say. We have are here tonight. Thanks to ronan farrow weve learned about the links some nbc executives went to cover up sexual abuse. The details are stunning. Even some on the left, presumably nbc viewers themselves, have expressed outrage. The feminist group ultra violet said the dnc needs to make it clear they support survivors of sexual abuse and cancel the upcoming 2020 democratic president primary debate on msnbc until comcast and nbc news take clear steps to clean up the toxic culture that exist across their network. Megyn kelly, do you think theres any chance the dnc will act on it . I do think theres a chance. I do. If this were fox news and fox news were hosting a democratic debate in conjunction with the Washington Post, they would be putting on the fullcourt press to make sure fox made some sort of promise to clean up its act. So i think i take it seriously. People are not screwing around anymore when it comes to the treatment of women. What used to be tolerated will not be tolerated anymore. Its not that we have a perfect culture like that when we recognize theres a problem. Is that companies are given the opportunity to come clean, investigate with the problems are, and come up with resolutions. Nbc says its done that. They say you can trust the internal gc. Ronan has given us 400 reasons to doubt it. Its really up to the public. Are they going to put the pressure on them to do something, get an outside investigator, or arent they . Tucker one of the most amazing i think details, maybe not so surprising, that Hillary Clinton applied pressure to farrow, he says, not to pursue the Harvey Weinstein story. So i wonder and of course i dont know the truth. Thats his claim. Why hasnt anyone asked Hillary Clinton about it . If he eventually they will. Theres a lot of fish to fry there. I think hillary spokes vision is, it said it was nothing and its been missed or presented. We are kind of denying it. More needs to happen in order for us to get to the bottom of it. Nbc says there is no way for them to know any of it. Because they didnt know anything until Brooke Nevils came in and only that pointed a couple more women come forward and say me too. The truth is weve seen already there was a woman, i had her on my show i was at nbc, she had a consensual affair with flour. He was he plucked her out of being a p. A. Brooke nevils, 30 years old, assistant to meredith vieira, same thing. The multiple ways of she says she was raped by him. He has denied it and said it was consensual. Another woman who said she exposed himself to her after a party and that she ultimately left the company. Theres a woman who claimed she had sex with him in his office and she fainted it was so dramatic. The question is if they didnt know, why didnt they know . Tucker they are lying. It doesnt diminish the selfrighteousness with which they approach other people since. I want to ask you. You worked here at fox news and you were to nbc. Youve got some perspective. I want to ask about the state of journalism today and i want to start with a clip from last nights debate. This was Anderson Cooper at cnn asking a question of the former Vice President joe biden. Watch this. The impeachment inquiry centered on President Trumps attempts to get political dirt from ukraine on Vice President biden and his son, hunter. Mr. Vice president , President Trump has falsely accused your son of doing something wrong while serving in a company born in ukraine. I want to point out theres no evidence of wrongdoing by either one of you. Tucker so what kind of journalist begins a question to a politician by reassuring him that attacks by his opponents are false and that hes innocent. Is that a question . The answer was baked into the question. Its clear you did nothing wrong but did you do anything wrong . That wasnt andersons best moment. I like anderson. It wasnt his best moment. It wouldve been fine if he wouldve said you didnt do anything illegal. No one has alleged you did anything illegal. Because really what the guy did he sat on the board and hunter biden has no expertise in ukraine. He has no expertise on natural gas. He takes his job sitting on the board of this Ukrainian Company 50,000 bucks a month while his dad is the Vice President. The reason he got the job is presumably his last name is biden. So they are paying for access. They are paying for the association. Is that corrupt . You can make a very strong argument that it is. Is it wrong . That is up to the voters to decide. Maybe he could have reworded it. Maybe he would like it back. Tucker i agree with you, by the way. I know Anderson Cooper fairly well. I dont think hes the worst offender. But this is part of a larger tapestry here and it adds up to basically partisan interference in an election. You have journalists who feel that their first obligation is to help a candidate or hurt another candidate. Thats not journalism. 100 . This goes back to before trump was elected. Jorge ramos of univision came on my show and we had a very heartfelt discussion about journalism in america and he made a strong plea for journalists to abandon neutrality. He said its over. Youve got to come out and youve got to say trump is a racist. Trump is a misogynist. Trump is a bigot. Whatever your view is, youve got to say it and sell it. The time for neutrality has passed. I do believe hes persuaded and others have come to their own conclusion that thats the way forward. Thats all we had a question there was another cnn debate where don lemmons physically said how do you answer voters who prioritize the economy overcomes bigotry. Theres a judgment in there. Im saying fine, many people may agree with that. It is the anchors subjective judgment and it doesnt belong, in my view, in a debate question. New york times is arguing about whether the times should be part of the resistance. Tucker the problem i have is not that someone shows an opinion. If that they are lying about what it does and they are saying where journalists barely objective. Why cant they drop the pretense and be honest and say that we are partisan combatants. We already know. Thats a real joke. We already know. Fox news was founded in 1996. They had their birthday. The premise that the other side of the stories werent being told of that half the country was being ignored and that if you did fair and balanced news, the people would watch. There was a premise that the other media, the Mainstream Media, maybe they werent far left but that there was a baked in bias against people who believe in homeschooling, who believe in a prolife position, who might have a gun. So they made a whole empire based on programming to those people. What happened now on the other half of the country, in the mainstream, they have embraced it. It was sort of passive and now it. Now its less work. He is too bad. We have to work together. Will be judged. History will judge whether we were for or against this man. Tucker we were planning to bring a Dennis Rodman segment. Will save it for tomorrow. Its interesting, if you dont mind staying. Well be right back. Tucker welcome back. We promised you a conversation with Dennis Rodman on china in the segment we got carried away talking to megyn kelly so were going to continue that. We will bring it to you tomorrow. Rodman is a great interview. Tucker youve taken a year off and you been thinking, assessing, probably watching news. A little. Tucker two days ago, this report comes out from project veritas and cnn and in it, whatever you think of their methods, they have the head of cnn, jeff zucker instructing his employees impeachment, impeachment, impeachment. Hitting impeachment no matter what. Impeachment is the only story that matters. Sounds more like a Political Campaign than a news judgment. Impeachment is a big story. If the president of the United States is going to get impeached and possibly bounced out of office, its a major story. I think its defensible on the part of jeff zucker but i thing the hyperfocus on a buy most media at the extent of all else is not new. Since the day trump got into office, they have been hyperfocus on impeachment. This is one of the problems the democrats and also to some extent the media is up against. That from the day he took office, it was the 25th amendment, the mullings clause, russia, russia, russia, obstruction of justice. All those things. He has to be impeached. If everything is and 11, nothing is and 11. They have may be stumbled on an 11. They have the transcript. Trump said it was a perfect call. You can make an argument. No one is paying as much attention as they otherwise would have if we hadnt been told from the beginning that he needs to be bounced out of office. So i dont know. They can ratchet up the covered all they want. I dont know whether they are convincing everyone on the fence or in the middle. Tucker at all. It seems like people are starting to tune out in general from News Coverage because, like how long can you keep our outrage culture. Watch on my supposed to be outraged about . Im going to get outraged. Just give me two seconds. Ukraine, all right. Tucker we talked about this at the time. At trumps election, you heard people say we need to think about who is voters are. Theres a whole world we know nothing about. We should be sympathetic to the trump voters. That lasted for about 15 secon seconds. Youre wrong. They looked and there were like never mind i think it was a conscious decision that we dont want to go into that world. Look at them with their guns in their cowboy hats. No. I dont think the Mainstream Media has any connection of flyover country and when they meander through montana, they have never seen such a thing. Its a rodeo and they talked differently. They have different values. Tucker shouldnt they want to understand the country they cover . I think they think they do. I think they believe they do. But i think most people, for example, take a look at the guy in Washington State who wouldnt bake the cake for the gay couple and they just think bigot. Bigot. Tucker the media. The problem is it so much more completed than that. Tucker thats for sure. I have to ask you, since you had this very well covered career and youve taken a year to think, what have you learned after all of it . Everything thats happened. Very little. I dont learn so well. Tucker [laughs] i am like woody allen. I am 48 years old and ive learned nothing. No. I have learned a thing or two. What comes to mind is the goodness of humanity. The kindness of strangers. As awful as the media can be, actual humans are awesome and loving and kind and helpful. I think about it because i left fox news in january of 17 and the reason i left is because i wanted to be with my family. I was missing my kids childhood. They were little. 7, 5, 3. I could still see it and be part of it. Now im doing it. Ive spent the past year in particular but even before that, with them and i am mothering my own kids. There is no substitute for that. I lost my dad when i was 15 years old, and so i know, i know on an inherent basis. You dont get a do over. Im there and im enjoying it. I will get back on the war soon. This has been fun. I will probably get back out there but right now im still enjoying my daytoday life with my family and friends. Tucker megyn kelly, thank you for the conversation. Thats it for us tonight. We will be back tomorrow. The show that is the sworn enemy of line, capacity, groupthink. Sean hannity takes the reins. Sean from one swamp to the next. Welcome to hannity. We have a lot breaking. The president just excoriated the House Speaker nancy pelosi right to her face in a closeddoor meeting at the white house he called her a thirdrate politician. The president is right. Deranged, psychotic rage of sets of hate trump agenda is all that matters in her world. The speakers sloppy execution leaves a lot to be desired. Today we saw it play out in real time. Pelosi and her colleagues are attending a meeting surrounding the ministrations policy in syria and they say a picture speaks a thousand words. On twitter, the president called
