1 00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:04,480 Speaker 1: It is Monday, November third. This is the morning. 2 00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:08,239 Speaker 2: One of the features of our age, and one of 3 00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:11,360 Speaker 2: the reasons Donald Trump has been able to become president, 4 00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:14,760 Speaker 2: is because of the collapse of trust between the American 5 00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:18,840 Speaker 2: people in nearly every institution you could think to name. 6 00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:23,520 Speaker 2: Trump took advantage of that collapse. He was able to 7 00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:27,800 Speaker 2: put the lie into battle against the truth in an 8 00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:32,120 Speaker 2: era where people just can't tell the difference between the 9 00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:36,919 Speaker 2: two out of a combination of laziness and difference and 10 00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,640 Speaker 2: the incompetence, the malice, and the deep corruption of America's 11 00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:46,400 Speaker 2: corporate news media. This is Larry Allison. He is a 12 00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:49,800 Speaker 2: man who's given tens and tens of millions of dollars 13 00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:53,440 Speaker 2: to Donald Trump. Like all of the tech oligarchs, he 14 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:57,880 Speaker 2: is all in. He is an American fascist. His son 15 00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:01,280 Speaker 2: has never worked a day in his life. He's never 16 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:05,759 Speaker 2: had a bad ten minutes. He has no accomplishments, he 17 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:10,039 Speaker 2: has no skills. But in Trump's America, he has the 18 00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:14,680 Speaker 2: one thing that you really need, an oligarch father. And 19 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:20,039 Speaker 2: so thus the unaccomplished David, a teenage stunt pilot, now 20 00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:25,200 Speaker 2: runs CBS News. He runs Paramount, where he makes movies 21 00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:29,480 Speaker 2: with Tom Cruise, and he aspires to take control totally 22 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:33,960 Speaker 2: of CNN. His business model is simple. It has a 23 00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 2: fascist flavor. If he pleases the leader, he knows he 24 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:42,240 Speaker 2: can be a duke. He can do as he pleases. 25 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:46,680 Speaker 2: And so David Allison has sought to please Trump by 26 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:51,640 Speaker 2: taking command of the news that he watches and soft 27 00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 2: soaping to the American people what's going on. 28 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:57,400 Speaker 1: Nora O'Donnell, for many, many. 29 00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:01,280 Speaker 2: Years, was a person who was respected and consider to 30 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 2: be a real journalist. 31 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 1: She's not. 32 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 2: What she is is a model. She looks good and 33 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 2: therefore she got to read the news to you. But 34 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 2: when it came time to test her character, there was 35 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 2: nothing inside. Nora O'Donnell is as she appears to be 36 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:25,240 Speaker 2: a holographic projection, empty, vapid. But she was able to 37 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 2: get praised by Donald Trump, which is the only credential 38 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 2: you need these days to be considered the next Walter 39 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:37,680 Speaker 2: Cronkite Ormorrow, at least at CBS. Let's watch the praise. 40 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:39,960 Speaker 2: It gives you a flavor of the interview. 41 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 3: And you know that too normal. 42 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:42,239 Speaker 4: I want to ask you about it. 43 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:43,359 Speaker 1: You live here, you know that too. 44 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 4: I want to ask you about American city difference in Washington, 45 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 4: d C. I think I've been working too hard. I 46 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 4: haven't been out and about it. 47 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:51,959 Speaker 1: I'm not a fair answer. 48 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:55,359 Speaker 4: You see, I get in my car and I don't have. 49 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:55,919 Speaker 1: To use that one. 50 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:57,119 Speaker 3: Don't worry. Don't worry. 51 00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:58,360 Speaker 4: I don't I've been working. 52 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 3: It's like, you know, the difference, like day and night. 53 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 2: There were no follow up questions, There was no challenge 54 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 2: Trump's viewed nonsense. Norah O'Donnell backed up the corrupt crypto kingpin. 55 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 1: You guessed it, never heard of them. 56 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 4: This year, the president has pardoned or shortened the sentences 57 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:21,360 Speaker 4: of more than sixteen hundred people. The latest pardon was 58 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 4: for a cryptocurrency tycoon who was known as CZ. The 59 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 4: company CZ founded, Binance, helped boost the profile of the 60 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 4: Trump family's crypto firm, World Liberty Financial. He pled guilty 61 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 4: in twenty twenty three to violating anti money laundering laws. 62 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 4: The government at the time said that CZ had caused 63 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 4: significant harm to US national security, essentially by allowing terrorist 64 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:50,680 Speaker 4: groups like Hamas to move millions of dollars around. Why 65 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 4: did you pardon him? 66 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 3: Okay? Are you ready? I don't know who he is. 67 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 3: I know he got a four month sentence or something 68 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 3: like that, And I heard it was a Biden witch hunt. 69 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 2: No questions to penetrate to the core of the issue. 70 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 2: And by the way, where was the disclosure that Ice 71 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 2: rated Nora O'Donnell's husband's restaurant. 72 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 1: That wasn't relevant. 73 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 2: CBS didn't have an ethical obligation to disclose out. Where 74 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 2: were the penetrating questions about what Trump believes? Were the 75 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:23,280 Speaker 2: questions even written by sixty minute staff or were they 76 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 2: handed to sixty minute staff by Barry Weiss? The interview, 77 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 2: if you could call it, that, enlighten the American people 78 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 2: about nothing, well beyond the corruption of the corporate news media. 79 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 2: It is hard if you just watched television to know 80 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 2: what's happening in America. In fact, if you just watched CBS, 81 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 2: it's impossible. This is what corporate propaganda looks like. 82 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:51,480 Speaker 4: So why was this war? 83 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 3: But Nora, that was Joe Biden's war, not my war. 84 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:57,159 Speaker 3: I inherited that stupid. 85 00:04:56,720 --> 00:05:01,159 Speaker 4: Wood as the bloodiest land war in since World War 86 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 4: II continues. 87 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 3: But I brought, I mean, just a little list of 88 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 3: look at this wars. 89 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 4: President Trump wanted to make sure we saw the list 90 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:13,479 Speaker 4: of eight international conflicts. He says, he's been able to 91 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 4: end since returning to office, and you have branded yourself 92 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 4: the peace President. 93 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 3: Well, I think I did pretty good. I solved Those 94 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:22,679 Speaker 3: are eight of the nine wars I solved. 95 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 1: I know how I solved him. 96 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:28,039 Speaker 3: I said in many cases, in sixty percent, I said, 97 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 3: if you don't stop fighting, I'm putting tariffs on both 98 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:32,040 Speaker 3: of your countries and you're not going to be able 99 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 3: to do business. 100 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 4: Why isn't that working with Putin? Uh? 101 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:38,480 Speaker 3: It is working with Putin, I think. 102 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:44,359 Speaker 2: And David Allison appreciates. So long as he allows this drivel, 103 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:49,600 Speaker 2: this nonsense, to spew out, he will be unimpeded when 104 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 2: it comes time to use Daddy's billions to merge media 105 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 2: companies one after another. The people who run CBS to 106 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:03,719 Speaker 2: corrupt people, the Sherry Redstone who sold it to David Ellison. 107 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 2: All of these people have made a choice. And now 108 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:12,600 Speaker 2: Norah O'Donnell has made her choice. She is another media superstar. 109 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 2: On her knees. She has submitted. She is compliant whatever 110 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 2: it is that she is American journalist, well, at least 111 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 2: in the sense of the way they used to make them. 112 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 2: Is the one thing she is not. Here's how to 113 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:31,279 Speaker 2: think about this. After the American people witnessed one of 114 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:34,719 Speaker 2: the greatest World Series in the history of the sport, 115 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 2: the one thing that every person knows who watched that 116 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,919 Speaker 2: baseball game is the Toronto Blue Jays and the Los 117 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:47,720 Speaker 2: Angeles Dodgers. They left nothing on the field. They gave 118 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:52,479 Speaker 2: one hundred percent for their fans, for the people that 119 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:59,040 Speaker 2: paid for the tickets. Millions watched, maximum effort, maximum assertion 120 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 2: of heart, of effort. What Nora o'donald did is laid down. 121 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 2: She threw the game. She didn't try, She didn't stand 122 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 2: up for the ordinary person who's trying to figure out 123 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 2: what's going on. What Nora o'donald did was served the 124 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 2: interests of power and call it journalism. 125 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 1: What Nora o'donald did was. 126 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 2: Cash the check written for her by the corrupt Barry Weis. 127 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 2: What no o'donald did is pull out a gun, cock 128 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:33,680 Speaker 2: it and shoot sixty minutes in the head bang she 129 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 2: killed it. Sixty minutes is a venerable show until the 130 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 2: second it wasn't. And what it became last night is 131 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 2: the new show that's Fox Lay. It comes on after football. 132 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 2: Just another thing that was worthy killed by an American 133 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 2: billionaire with no talent, no ethics, no credibility, no character, 134 00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 2: no vision, just a talent for deep and daddy's money 135 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:07,160 Speaker 2: growing high in its pile. God bless America and Wow, 136 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 2: thank you CBS News, the home of Edward R. 137 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:12,239 Speaker 1: Morrow. 138 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 2: You know how to do journalism right in the Trump era, 139 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:21,400 Speaker 2: at least enough to make Donald happy.
