there s never any follow up questions. that s the strategy. all of us. i mean, all of us are on tv. sometimes there s a topic ore like abo oh, i m not really excu to talk about this one, but we ll talk about it. yeaht it i just never wanted tot there. will you know, sometimes it s one time and other times it s another time. but time.. time for it. like you d be like, ah, are you okay? yeah. wnow, or there will be follo up questions, follow up phone calls, emails and plans for wherans foe had to go afterwardo exactly. we d have a car waiting to pick you up. absolutely pick . at the e it s like the beginning of intervention. there s no there was semblance of even one coherent thought. there. she said four words to her t credit, buhet that order, they didn t really make sense. yeah, and you don t have to be walterr make cronkite tot your hand and go, what s what was the essence? jamie?on i can t count your so like, why
moment at this point, trace. i mean, that is all you need to know. that the very people that were in those intelligence agencies are now on television saying, don t believe you your lying eyes. trace: do you think that that media is because they are complacent and they don t have a way out except to keep going and going forward? you would think that one person, trace, from the new york times and the washington post would come forward and say, you know what, we did get this wrong. oversee that has been proven. we should give those pulitzers back, all those awards back but that has not happened. it is a complete and total lack of contrition and complete lack of shame because if otherwise you would say, we don t deserve these awards and i think that way back when, when journalists were respected in the age of cronkite and wrinkly, they would say, we got it wrong. we apologize. instead, again, the egos say,
price of the cheeseburger was 2008 and we know what happened in 2008 with the recession. i think there are signs everywhere the economy is not as strong as the administration wants to pretend like it is. neil: you know, where do you draw the line? you strike me someone exclusively on fast food and you are not a pound overweight. i m not saying that. so what did you do? i mean, here is the thing. americans love fast food. so, it will have to get pretty darn high for us not to do it. for example, i was at kat s wedding and mcdonald s hamburgers were the after party. [laughter] so now they will get higher and maybe kat is willing to do that but neil, back in 1968 lyndon johnson said you lost cronkite you lost middle america. fast-forward to 2022,
about the people who work there and people. he has a different vision and i do but i think we shared a common understanding about people and kindness towards them. that is why i can be friends with him and still continue our daily battle. greg: that is awesome and it is awesome for a reason that i have been talking about since i hosted that political talk show on animal planet back in the 80s. screw you panda. i would at. [laughter] i hosted it with cronkite back in the day. in this woke riddled iraq any present seen commiserating withh another person with unsavory opinions takes on that person s terrible leads. believes. you are normalizing hate, they tell you. if you are seen being nice to x,
have that there s not enough space on the internet? i mean, what excuse do they have for not running this story? yeah, there s finite space on the internet, so you can t say, well, we ran out of time or we ran out of space in thess newspaper. so that s an excellent point. look, you would think o that this would be a big story y considering how big now it isbi getting giveng the admission and now saying that , yeah, s hillary clinton absolutely signed offclly on she knew about it. but again, i think this is what proves why the american press is so distrusted. chaseut and when you think about back in 1970 after watergate, three quarters of the country actually trusted the media, f trusted the press or those were the days of cronkite and mud. and so on . a and nown it s at an all time lou because we have journalists that have become activists.tivi right. itit s has shifted completelynd and as a result the bias of omission is now rearing its ugly head . it is it is an d, insidious i ki
