it is a genuine news entity with very capable people. you see that at 6:00, you see that with many people that work at fox news. then there s this other part that exists with mainline fantasy into the conservative bloodstream. i said in 2010 that republicans began by thinking fox worked for us, then we discovered we all worked for fox. i took some heat for that at the time, but that has become half of the fox identity, not the other half. and the question for that network is going to be, do they want to be a trusted news source, or do they want to be a fantasy bubble for people a safe space, a refuge, from political reality? breitbart as well, their role of bringing it into the mainstream. what has his role been this week, do you think, with trump s behavior? well, you know, when i saw the use of the clinton accusers at the debate, it certainly
but once the lawyers signed off, it seems as though you would want to get that on the air very fast, and that didn t happen. it seems like nbc has had a tortured relationship with trump. they had that interview that was pretty easy on him, they had fallon playing with trump s hair on the entertainment side. trump said nbc was out to get him by leaking this tape. do we have any evidence of who might have leaked it to the washington post ? i have no idea, brian. i m not hiding anything, i just don t know. let me also ask you about a big development this week. the unprotected journalist said donald trump is a threat to press freedom. what do you make of this statement, and does it start to prove trump supporters right when they say the media is out to get this candidate? that was a big deal for the community to protect journalists. i talked to the chairwoman of cpj, sandy rowe, about it.
maybe it s not didluted, after all? trump is a winner and he can t possibly be a loser unless it s somebody else s fault. so he kept planting more seeds like right here on the john hannity show. i m telling you november 8, we better be careful because that election is going to be rigged, and i hope the republicans are watching closely or it s going to be taken away from us. the first couple times he said this, it was news. it was very disturbing news. it got a lot of attention. but over time the repetition, trump s lies about election rigging, have become a form of background noise, more of the same. and this is a propaganda technique whether trump knows it or not. if you say something often enough, if you plant enough seeds, people start to wonder, will my vote matter? will it actually count? now, you probably didn t hear this next trump seed because it s from monday of this week,
reelecte reelected, trump through a fit. he wrote, we have to make america great again. mr. trump, think of your children. america is great partly because everyone accepts the results of elections. for decades in the past and hopefully for decades to come. inventing a conspiracy theory is no way to make america great again. coming up here on reliable sources, the intimate departure of billy bush. his handling of the infamous trump tape. new reporting after the break. using 60,000 points from my chase ink card i bought all the framework. wire. and plants needed to give my shop. a face.
a lot of folks having moments, one being carly fiorina. congresswoman, it s great to see you. thanks much. thank you. of course, coming up for us, talking about trump. so, trump, did he tone it down? while his rivals came out swinging. and did jeb bush break through, find that energy and turn things around for his stalling campaign? we re going to discuss. the candidate a lot of people who thought dominated the first debate, the undercard, what we just learned may be the final undercard debate. will lindsey graham be on the stage one month from now? we ll ask him when he joins us live. big day? ah, the usual. moved some new cars.
