1 00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:00,560 Speaker 1: Ooh. 2 00:00:01,360 --> 00:00:05,280 Speaker 2: Back in final hour of the week, fourteen hours up. 3 00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:10,200 Speaker 2: We roll into our fifteen as a winter storm prepares 4 00:00:10,280 --> 00:00:14,880 Speaker 2: to take over much of the country from basically Texas 5 00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:17,319 Speaker 2: all the way up to New York and beyond in 6 00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:20,400 Speaker 2: the next couple of days. We are joined now by 7 00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:25,200 Speaker 2: FCC Chairman Brendan Carr, who sent a letter to many 8 00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:30,160 Speaker 2: different media companies relating to the shows that they put on, 9 00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:35,760 Speaker 2: particularly shows like The View or the late night comedy shows, 10 00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:41,960 Speaker 2: that gave a explanation of how the fairness doctrine would 11 00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:45,680 Speaker 2: be applied, how news would be classified. 12 00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:48,479 Speaker 3: He joins us, Now, I. 13 00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:51,920 Speaker 2: Appreciate the time, Chairman Carr, can you just kind of 14 00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:55,400 Speaker 2: give us an idea what that letter said and what 15 00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:58,240 Speaker 2: the intent behind it was, and then we'll dive into 16 00:00:58,280 --> 00:00:58,800 Speaker 2: it a bit. 17 00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:02,120 Speaker 4: Well with you. I mean, look, as you know, you know, 18 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 4: broadcast television and ess notily in broadcast radio are sort 19 00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:10,280 Speaker 4: of fundamentally different than any other forms of distributing program 20 00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:13,959 Speaker 4: whether it's a podcast or soapbox or a cable channel. 21 00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:17,080 Speaker 4: And Congress long ago said that if you're a broadcast 22 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:20,520 Speaker 4: TV station, for instance, and you're going to host one 23 00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:24,800 Speaker 4: political candidate for office, there's a specific statue that talks 24 00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:28,240 Speaker 4: about equal time, equal opportunity, and that has to be 25 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:31,679 Speaker 4: given to an opposing candidate. And it's not about, you know, 26 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:35,640 Speaker 4: censorship or shutting down debate. It's fundamentally about making sure 27 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:39,480 Speaker 4: that that unique access that broadcasters have to this valuable 28 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:44,480 Speaker 4: public resource spectrum isn't being put to the parson advantage 29 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:47,560 Speaker 4: of a Republican or a Democrat. And so all we 30 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:50,840 Speaker 4: did was simply remind people that maybe you forgot or 31 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,720 Speaker 4: maybe people have been misreading sec precedent and they just 32 00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 4: broadly think that every late night show and daytime talk 33 00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 4: show is considered bona fide news because if you are 34 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 4: a quote bonafide news program, then you're exemp from that 35 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 4: you don't have to give people equal time. But it 36 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,359 Speaker 4: looks to me that over the years people have misread 37 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 4: that and they've just assumed that every single you know, 38 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:12,639 Speaker 4: late night and daytime talk show is in fact a 39 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 4: bonafid news program, you know, even when in many cases 40 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 4: it's it's not going to be found to be. 41 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:19,919 Speaker 5: So what would happen, m missiter Carr, thank you for 42 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,839 Speaker 5: being with us. What would happen in the case of, say, 43 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:27,840 Speaker 5: one of these programs. If the designation is that if 44 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 5: your FCC finds that they are not a bonafide news program, 45 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 5: then I assume they'll fight it. What does that look 46 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 5: like and what ultimately is the enforcement mechanism for the 47 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 5: FCC views as the way the law actually should be applied. 48 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:48,399 Speaker 4: Here, there's a number of pretty clear remedies that will 49 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 4: be available to the SCC. So you may remember, in 50 00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:55,240 Speaker 4: the run for the last presidential election, Comcast NBC put 51 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 4: on Vice President Harris and Kennont Harris on SNL the 52 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 4: Sunday for I believe the Tuesday election, and the law 53 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 4: had actually been clear at the time that SNL was 54 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 4: not a bonafide news program. So what they had to 55 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 4: do was file and notice with the FCC that they 56 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,959 Speaker 4: gave time to a candidate and that allowed other people 57 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 4: then seek equal opportunities. And I think at least at 58 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 4: some extent they did give time to other candidates, and 59 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:20,919 Speaker 4: so here they would have to file that type of notice, 60 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:22,920 Speaker 4: and if they didn't, you know, the FCC could you know, 61 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 4: effectively provide relief to make sure that the broadcaster does 62 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:31,960 Speaker 4: in fact give what they call comparable time comparable placement. 63 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 4: If they don't if there's a pattern of disregarding that 64 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 4: SEC rule them, that becomes a problem for them in 65 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 4: terms of the underlying license itself. So it could be 66 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 4: anything from some sort of injunctive relief that makes sure 67 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 4: everyone gets equal treatment, it could be fines by the SEC, 68 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:50,920 Speaker 4: or ultimately go to the underlying license itself. And one 69 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 4: thing that's so interesting to me is if you look 70 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:55,840 Speaker 4: at the reaction to the SEC taking this decision, it 71 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 4: seems to be voices on the left and politicians on 72 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 4: the left that seem to be outrage by And I 73 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 4: think that's kind of telling, like, again, we're not saying 74 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:06,120 Speaker 4: put all Republicans on or put all democrat on. We're saying, 75 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 4: how about equal time? And there's at least, you know, 76 00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 4: one side of the political aisle that seems to be 77 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 4: very upset with it, which I guess means maybe they 78 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 4: think that they've been getting more than equal time. I 79 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 4: don't know. 80 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, let me ask you this. 81 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 2: The view I would contend is not a bona fide 82 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:27,359 Speaker 2: news program, and I'm curious how you would analyze this. 83 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:29,279 Speaker 2: But you may or may not know this. And we're 84 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 2: talking to FCC Commissioner Chair Brendan Carr. So the View 85 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:37,680 Speaker 2: came out recently one of their hosts did and said, well, 86 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 2: the reason we don't have conservative guests on the show 87 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:44,719 Speaker 2: is no conservatives will come on the show. So when 88 00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 2: that story happened, both Buck and myself said, we are 89 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,040 Speaker 2: happy to go on the show. We've never been invited. 90 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:56,479 Speaker 2: We actually affirmatively reached out to the producers of The 91 00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 2: View through our producer sent them emails notification saying we're 92 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 2: happy to come on. We've got a pretty successful radio show, 93 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:11,280 Speaker 2: decent little platform here. They never responded, So I actually 94 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:14,160 Speaker 2: think that's kind of very interesting here as you analyze, 95 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 2: and I think your letter or the writeups of the letter. 96 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 3: Have pointed out that almost all of. 97 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 2: Their guests are left wing, they have almost no conservative viewpoints. 98 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:28,480 Speaker 2: In your mind, is the View a bonafide news program? 99 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 2: And should they be able to have on hundreds of 100 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:37,479 Speaker 2: left wing prognosticators and politicians and never anybody providing the 101 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 2: other side, given that they air primarily on ABC, which 102 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 2: is a broadcast channel. 103 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 4: Well, with Charlie, I haven't seen any evidence put before 104 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:50,719 Speaker 4: us to establish the case that they are in fact 105 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:54,160 Speaker 4: bonified news, and so I'd be happy to have them 106 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 4: file a petition to try to seek that status that 107 00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 4: they want and be interested to see what type of 108 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:00,919 Speaker 4: evidence they ca it forward. But if you look at 109 00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,479 Speaker 4: the history of the SEC's approach to this, when they 110 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 4: look at these individual programs and the SEC asks under 111 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:11,920 Speaker 4: our case law, they motivated by partisan political agendas or 112 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:16,600 Speaker 4: are they truly out there engaging in sort of newsworthy discussions? 113 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 4: And if you're putting ninety eight Democrat candidates on in 114 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 4: one or no Republican candidates on, you know, it's going 115 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 4: to be a pretty uphill fight to say that we're 116 00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:29,080 Speaker 4: just out here, you know, bringing people on for newsworthy 117 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 4: value as opposed to pushing one particular partisan ideology. 118 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 5: And so, now, what what are the next steps that 119 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 5: you're going to be taking in the FCC, Like, how 120 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:45,160 Speaker 5: does this proceed? How does you know there's clearly a 121 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:47,920 Speaker 5: new sheriff in town at the end of the Biden administration, 122 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 5: a new approach to things. So what can we expect 123 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 5: in the months ahead from the FCC, pardon me doing 124 00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 5: its duty? 125 00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:58,279 Speaker 4: One is we want to make sure that you know 126 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:00,600 Speaker 4: candidates that are out there, if you see an opposing 127 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:03,160 Speaker 4: candidate that's on any one of these, you know, daytime 128 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 4: or nighttime talk shows. You should raise it to the 129 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:07,480 Speaker 4: FCC so we can make sure you know, again if 130 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 4: you're a Republican or Democrat or independent or whatever, that 131 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 4: you're getting your statutory right to equal time. So one, 132 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 4: we want to make sure people are keeping an eye 133 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 4: on this as candidates, and we are going to be 134 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 4: prepared to step in if we're seeing, you know, candidates 135 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 4: again from any political persuasion on a show that's not 136 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 4: in fact bonifi news or is fake news or whatever 137 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 4: the opposite of Bonifie news is, and then we're prepared 138 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 4: to step in at that point and make sure that 139 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 4: the statutory requirements are followed. 140 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 2: Brendan, last night, your good friend Jimmy Kimmel in his monologue, 141 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 2: I've got a quote for you here. 142 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 3: I want to let you let you hear. 143 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 2: It because he addressed this, this letter, in this controversy 144 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 2: until this week when Trump's little ferret in the FCC, 145 00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 2: Brendan Carr, who as you know, yes, you are the 146 00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 2: little ferret in the FCC, who as you know, is 147 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 2: doing everything he can to shut us up. 148 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 3: Quote. 149 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 2: The easy way of the hard way is trying to 150 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 2: say we no longer qualify for the bonafide news exemption 151 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 2: when it comes to interviewing candidates, which is a sneaky 152 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 2: little way of keeping viewpoints that aren't his off the air, Okay, 153 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 2: so that I'll let you respond to that in a moment. 154 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 2: So those are the quotes, but let's just say that 155 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 2: Jimmy Kimmel or Stephen Colbert or Jimmy Fallon, I think 156 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 2: those are the three primary late night news hosts that 157 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 2: they have on regularly Democrat candidates, whether it's Kamala Harris, 158 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,959 Speaker 2: Gavin Newsom, whomever it might be. Doesn't it seem if 159 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:42,440 Speaker 2: they are going to get a bonafide news exemption that 160 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:49,320 Speaker 2: they should also then have sometimes Republicans on if that's 161 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:52,079 Speaker 2: going to be considered an exemption. What am I missing here? 162 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,319 Speaker 2: And what do you think about being called a quote 163 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 2: Trump's little ferret? 164 00:08:57,880 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 4: I think that's pretty funny. Makes you think I should 165 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,440 Speaker 4: change my mind. I x my Twitter profile to be 166 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 4: a ferret with some sort of you know, FCC hat 167 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 4: on it. That's probably one of the funniest things I've 168 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 4: seen coming out of late night in a while. I 169 00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 4: didn't see that. Actually, I fall asleep well on my 170 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 4: own so I don't need to watch that program to 171 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 4: fall asleep at night. But look, you know, stepping back, 172 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:19,440 Speaker 4: if you know, if you're fake news, you're not going 173 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:22,239 Speaker 4: to get to be qualified as you know, a bonafide 174 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 4: news program at the FCC. And again this is just 175 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 4: like cour stuff. It goes back to the nineteen fifties. 176 00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 4: It's many many decades old that if you want to 177 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 4: be a bonified news program. To your point, you got 178 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 4: to give you know, Republican Democrats independent equal time. And 179 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:38,440 Speaker 4: my view is not, you know that we need to 180 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 4: keep the ball, you know, the sports analogy at the 181 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:43,320 Speaker 4: fifty yard line at all times on all issues, like 182 00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 4: you know, over some period of time, maybe keep it 183 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 4: between the forties the thirties. But if you got the 184 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 4: ball the five yard line for years and years on end, 185 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 4: I think it's hard to make the case that you're 186 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 4: fulfilling your licensed obligation, which is to respond to and 187 00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 4: serve the needs of your licensemmunity. Here. Remember, these are 188 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 4: programs that are being generated in New York and Hollywood 189 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:08,719 Speaker 4: and then disseminated local communities all across the country. And 190 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 4: I think it's important for these you know, licensed local 191 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 4: broadcasters to have a feedback loop to say to New 192 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 4: York and Hollywood, like, this isn't quite the right fit 193 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,200 Speaker 4: for our community. Like it's okay to be like, you know, 194 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 4: partisan in some cases, it's okay to be like really 195 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 4: edgy and to be you know, means of Republicans and 196 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:27,560 Speaker 4: Democrats like, no problem, but over some period of time 197 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 4: to reflect your community. I think you can make the 198 00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 4: argument that again, you know, the ball between the forty 199 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 4: at some point here. 200 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:36,000 Speaker 2: I'm not sure how much this is going to be 201 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:41,840 Speaker 2: impinged in the FCC universe. But obviously the biggest media 202 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:47,240 Speaker 2: story writ large is Netflix and Paramount both trying to 203 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 2: buy Warner Brothers Now. Paramount obviously has CBS. The Netflix 204 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 2: purchase would not necessarily include UH, CNN, and as you've 205 00:10:56,360 --> 00:11:01,040 Speaker 2: talked about broadcast networks ABC, CBS, NBC, see different rules 206 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:01,720 Speaker 2: apply there. 207 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 3: How much role, if. 208 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 2: Any, does the FCC have in looking at that potential acquisition, 209 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 2: And also there's another one out there, the potential acquisition 210 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:16,560 Speaker 2: by ESPN of the NFL network. ESPN has ABC. How 211 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 2: much concern from you is there and sort of the 212 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 2: media consolidation that you're seeing, and is there a role 213 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 2: in either of those for the FCC, or is the 214 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:30,440 Speaker 2: broadcast connection less significant, so that's not really as much 215 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:31,240 Speaker 2: in your purview. 216 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, on Netflix in Warner combining in the main that's 217 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 4: going to be before the Department of Justice, or could 218 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:42,080 Speaker 4: be a small piece related to the competing bid from 219 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:44,840 Speaker 4: Paramount that there could be some additional investment in Paramount, 220 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 4: which does have broadcast licenses that we would take a 221 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 4: quick look gap and I've already seen some of the 222 00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 4: information on that and that doesn't look like there's any 223 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 4: sec hurdles at all. You know, they'd just be taking 224 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 4: out some additional what we call, you know, sort of 225 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,959 Speaker 4: bonifide debt. But I do think underlying I've heard a 226 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:00,840 Speaker 4: lot of concerns. You look at Netflix, they have you know, 227 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:04,160 Speaker 4: three hundred million or some odd number of subscribers. I 228 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 4: think they've grown in a lot of ways organically, which 229 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:09,680 Speaker 4: is great for them, But you combine that with some 230 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:11,440 Speaker 4: of the streaming services that they would get through the 231 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 4: Warner deal, there's been a lot of concerns raised from 232 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 4: sort of a concentration and a competition perspective there. Similarly, 233 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:22,839 Speaker 4: the Disney ESPN, NFL deal that would be DJ I 234 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:24,839 Speaker 4: haven't tracked that one as closely. There may be some 235 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 4: concerns there, and in terms of concentration, it's a challenge, 236 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,959 Speaker 4: you know, again taking batches to the broadcast space. You've 237 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:35,839 Speaker 4: got Comcast, who's NBC, You've got you know, Disney, which 238 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:39,079 Speaker 4: is ABC. You know, over the last decade or so, they've 239 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 4: a massed, tremendous, tremendous amount of power. And so one 240 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:44,760 Speaker 4: of my north stars and media policies, how do we 241 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:48,400 Speaker 4: make sure that these licensed broadcasters that are actually out 242 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:49,840 Speaker 4: there in the country, how to make sure they have 243 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:54,160 Speaker 4: a better position to stand up with and compete against 244 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:56,599 Speaker 4: those we call the national programmers Comcast in Disney, And 245 00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:58,959 Speaker 4: that's kind of underlying a lot of the work we're 246 00:12:58,960 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 4: trying to do with the FCC. 247 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:03,600 Speaker 2: Isn't also the big challenge here because I'm fascinated Buck 248 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 2: always kind of like jokes about it. 249 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 3: I love media more than anything. 250 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:09,840 Speaker 2: Is it one of the big challenges here that as 251 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:13,000 Speaker 2: the CBS and the NBCs and the abcs and even 252 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:17,200 Speaker 2: the Foxes lose overall audience and the streamers take over. 253 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:21,840 Speaker 2: To your point, if suddenly Netflix owns HBO and the 254 00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:26,200 Speaker 2: streaming audiences are becoming so massive, right where most people 255 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:29,720 Speaker 2: are spending their time on streaming. It creates a world 256 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 2: where the broadcast networks, which are heavily regulated, have almost 257 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:36,760 Speaker 2: no impact in our larger discourse frankly in the years ahead, 258 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:40,199 Speaker 2: and cable in streaming takes over and there's limited, if 259 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 2: any impact for the larger sort of governmental affairs community 260 00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:48,960 Speaker 2: which cared so desperately. Like on this program where we are, 261 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:53,800 Speaker 2: we're regulated by FCC. Traditionally, the FCC has regulated where 262 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:57,080 Speaker 2: Americans have gone to consume media. In the future, the 263 00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:01,559 Speaker 2: FCC's impact and just the larger government impact is minimal, 264 00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:04,880 Speaker 2: and the overall power of these streamers is continuing to grow. 265 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 2: That seems fairly significant. 266 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:07,640 Speaker 3: Long range. 267 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think you're right. I mean, look the extent 268 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:11,920 Speaker 4: that everything is moving what we call over the top, 269 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:15,040 Speaker 4: we're streaming. We had, you know, some basic regulatory guard 270 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,920 Speaker 4: rails in these other areas, whether it was traditional cable 271 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 4: or traditional broadcast, and those guardrails aren't present with respect 272 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 4: to streaming. But to your point two, I think one 273 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 4: of the biggest bogies coming down the pipe is the 274 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:33,120 Speaker 4: contracts for carrying these sports leagues, particularly the NFL. Right, 275 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 4: the NFL contract with broadcasters are going to come up 276 00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 4: I think in the next two years. That's a really 277 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 4: really significant fork in the road. I mean, let's say 278 00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:44,320 Speaker 4: a substantial portion of those NFL broadcast rights, which going 279 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 4: traditional free over a broadcast TV, go even further behind 280 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 4: the paywall of the streamers right of Amazon and Hulu 281 00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 4: or a paramount wherever it goes. That's interesting in terms 282 00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:57,120 Speaker 4: of both what does it do the economics of broadcasting. 283 00:14:57,160 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 4: They're not bringing those eyeballs anymore that want to see 284 00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 4: the NFL. But also with't me for the NFL from 285 00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 4: almost in a trust perspective, is taking it behind a paywall? 286 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:08,480 Speaker 4: Is that change the analysis in terms of Congress giving 287 00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 4: that anti trust exemption to them. But if you want 288 00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 4: to think about you know, what's a big interesting fork 289 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 4: in the road and broadcast. The expiration of the NFL 290 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 4: TV broadcast rights coming up in the next two years 291 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:20,400 Speaker 4: is a very significant. 292 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:23,840 Speaker 2: Event, super interesting. We know you're busy. We appreciate the time. 293 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:26,240 Speaker 2: Happy to have you on anytime, and good luck with 294 00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 2: your new ferret profile. 295 00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 3: Pick. 296 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:29,240 Speaker 4: I appreciate it. 297 00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:32,840 Speaker 2: Thanks guys, that's FCC Commission in a chair a Brendan 298 00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 2: car I want to tell you, do you need a 299 00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:36,720 Speaker 2: little bit more energy.

If Nashville does not get at least 334 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:28,920 Speaker 2: six inches of snow, I will measure in my yard. 335 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:32,720 Speaker 2: I'll look at the official tallies. Then I'm saying we 336 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:35,399 Speaker 2: will get more than six inches of snow.

Have you ever seen a man who looks 370 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:28,760 Speaker 2: better with a mustache than without a mustache? In other words, 371 00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:31,400 Speaker 2: have you ever seen a man you're a young woman. 372 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:33,199 Speaker 2: Have you ever seen a man and thought, man that 373 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:36,520 Speaker 2: is a striking mustache? That is an attractive look? Or 374 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:39,879 Speaker 2: do mustaches always make guys, in your opinion, look worse. 375 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 1: Oh, that is a great question. I have to say. 376 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:47,199 Speaker 1: In the era of top Gun Maverick, I've seen a 377 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:51,960 Speaker 1: lot of men sporting mustaches that might do better without them. 378 00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:56,640 Speaker 1: But a mustache on a masculine man, I can get 379 00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 1: behind that. 380 00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:00,719 Speaker 5: I'm just gonna say, Man, if you're a line pilot 381 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:02,159 Speaker 5: has a mustache. 382 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:03,360 Speaker 3: You know you're in good hands.

Let's go into 386 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 2: some serious stuff here. You spent yesterday with Jade Vance 387 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:17,639 Speaker 2: in Minneapolis. We saw and carried a couple of the 388 00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:20,320 Speaker 2: cuts that from his press conference that he had yesterday. 389 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:22,000 Speaker 3: He also spoke. 390 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:27,879 Speaker 2: And is ready for the goal of being dad for 391 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:30,919 Speaker 2: the fourth time he and Usha. What was that experience 392 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 2: like as you went around Minneapolis with him? What have 393 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:36,640 Speaker 2: you found the situation in Minneapolis to be like? And 394 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 2: is it still somewhat stunning to you that the Democrat 395 00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:42,760 Speaker 2: opposition to Trump two point zero is a bunch of 396 00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:48,159 Speaker 2: white women screaming at ICE agents for arresting predators on 397 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:48,919 Speaker 2: your last. 398 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:51,520 Speaker 1: Point, yes, it is astonishing. And I think I was 399 00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:54,400 Speaker 1: really looking forward to this trip to Minneapolis because we've 400 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 1: seen for weeks now, obviously this protesting rioting violence, you know, 401 00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:04,639 Speaker 1: the breaking in of an FBI car and handling their weapons, 402 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:08,919 Speaker 1: all these horrific slogans and chants and threats to ICE. 403 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:12,000 Speaker 1: We've had reporters on the ground there, my colleague Jenny, 404 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:15,200 Speaker 1: might colleague Breca, And so when the Vice President's office 405 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:16,439 Speaker 1: asked me if I wanted to come with him on 406 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 1: the trip, I said absolutely, and the Vice President I 407 00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:24,639 Speaker 1: believe he timed the trip with some announcements from the DOJ. 408 00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:28,920 Speaker 1: We went to Ohio first Toledo yesterday morning, and while 409 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:31,119 Speaker 1: we were there, he announced that Pam Bondi had just 410 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 1: called him and told him that they were filing charges 411 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 1: against several of the protesters involved in storming that church 412 00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:42,360 Speaker 1: over the weekend. And so right as we got to Minneapolis, 413 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:45,920 Speaker 1: we were finding out that a judge had blocked the 414 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 1: DOJ from actually filing these charges against Don Lemon, and 415 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:53,000 Speaker 1: so that was all kind of going down as we arrived. 416 00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:56,480 Speaker 1: And then just have to note it is freezing there. 417 00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 1: Like I am not a Midwest girl. I live on 418 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:01,400 Speaker 1: the East Coast, I think because DC is pretty cold 419 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:04,240 Speaker 1: this time of year. It was so cold there that 420 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,840 Speaker 1: I was miserable after being outside waiting for the Vice 421 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,720 Speaker 1: President to get off Air Force two. So I got 422 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:12,840 Speaker 1: to give it to these protesters. They are protesting in 423 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:16,439 Speaker 1: some really wretched conditions, and I don't know what the 424 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:21,000 Speaker 1: motivating factor behind their activities is necessarily, but they are 425 00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:24,400 Speaker 1: very passionate about what they're doing if they're staying out 426 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 1: there for this. So we saw some of them as 427 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:30,639 Speaker 1: we pulled up in the motorcade to the facility that 428 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:34,639 Speaker 1: the Vice President had his conversation with ICE officers in, 429 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 1: so he pulled away from us. He had a conversation 430 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 1: with ICE agents, with Border Patrol, with some other federal authorities, 431 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:45,200 Speaker 1: and they had this privately for the safety of these 432 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:48,159 Speaker 1: ICE agents. Obviously a lot of these guys have been 433 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 1: under attack, and you know, we don't want to put 434 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:54,240 Speaker 1: them in a place where their public comments could put 435 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 1: them in an even more precarious position. But then after 436 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:00,800 Speaker 1: he had that session with them over to where we 437 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:02,919 Speaker 1: were and we had a press conference with him, and 438 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 1: that's where we were able to ask him. I'm sure 439 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:07,399 Speaker 1: some of the clips that you played yesterday, we were 440 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:10,280 Speaker 1: able to ask him about details about what's going on. 441 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 1: I actually specifically asked him about the Insurrection Act, which 442 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:15,720 Speaker 1: I you know, I'm sure you guys have heard a 443 00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:18,359 Speaker 1: lot about this. I have heard so many conservatives saying, 444 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:21,119 Speaker 1: why haven't they just invoked the Insurrection Act yet? Like, 445 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 1: what are they waiting for? And what the VP told 446 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:26,639 Speaker 1: me was he was saying he didn't really think that 447 00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 1: it was necessary yet at this point, he was saying 448 00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:33,679 Speaker 1: that it could be eventually, they could change their minds 449 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 1: but right now he was saying, we don't think we 450 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 1: need it, and he you know, he specifically said Trump 451 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:41,880 Speaker 1: could change his mind on that, but right now they 452 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:45,200 Speaker 1: think the federal law enforcement officers can do their job. 453 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:48,959 Speaker 1: Now that's up for debate, considering the fact that we 454 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,680 Speaker 1: are hearing about all these attacks on the ICE officers, 455 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:54,199 Speaker 1: and Vance himself told us that the cops on the 456 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 1: ground are being told not to help the ICE agents 457 00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:01,400 Speaker 1: when they're under attack. So literally been told, don't aid 458 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:05,000 Speaker 1: your fellow law enforcement when they're being attacked by these 459 00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:08,639 Speaker 1: these illegal immigrants or these protesters. And Vance really he 460 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:12,239 Speaker 1: talked about how unbelievable that was, and it was just 461 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:15,880 Speaker 1: it was really disturbing, honestly to stand there to see 462 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 1: all these ICE agents lined up behind Vance, you know, 463 00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:22,800 Speaker 1: some of their leadership lined up behind him, not saying anything. 464 00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:25,280 Speaker 1: And then I'm on the side of the media, right, 465 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:27,440 Speaker 1: so we're all in this media pen, looking at the 466 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 1: vice president, looking at these agents, and as the media 467 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:35,679 Speaker 1: would ask questions that were obviously very leading, obviously some 468 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 1: of them were based on misinformation. To see these guys' 469 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 1: faces as they look at us and are just so 470 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:46,200 Speaker 1: frustrated and appalled at what the media itself is doing 471 00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:50,240 Speaker 1: to perpetrate a lot of these lives. So I found 472 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:52,240 Speaker 1: that to be disturbing. And you know, the Vice President 473 00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:54,119 Speaker 1: is pretty good at debunking some of these lies, like, 474 00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:56,840 Speaker 1: for example, the story of the five year old who 475 00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:00,200 Speaker 1: supposedly was detained by ICE. I mean, my own friend, 476 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 1: I see them on their Instagram stories saying like how 477 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 1: horrific this is, when in fact we know that story 478 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:10,960 Speaker 1: is focused. So that in itself was disturbing too. But 479 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:14,040 Speaker 1: it was very interesting to travel with the Vice President 480 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:16,560 Speaker 1: to see what he saw, to get to talk to 481 00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:20,520 Speaker 1: him about these different events, and then you know, it 482 00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:23,199 Speaker 1: was a long day and I think he learned a 483 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:24,639 Speaker 1: lot about what's going on in the ground there. And 484 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:28,440 Speaker 1: I specifically said to him, does what you saw make 485 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:30,720 Speaker 1: you want to tell the President to invoke the Insurrection Act. 486 00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:33,680 Speaker 1: I also asked him about the guy that shot Renee 487 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:35,880 Speaker 1: Good when she rammed him with her car. I said, 488 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:37,679 Speaker 1: did you talk to him? Did you see him today? 489 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:39,800 Speaker 1: And he said he didn't talk to him, but he 490 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:42,760 Speaker 1: did talk to some of the ICE agents who knew him, 491 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 1: which I thought was interesting because I don't know about 492 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:47,359 Speaker 1: you guys, I've been wondering whether the president or the 493 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 1: vice president would speak to that agent. And I'm guessing 494 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:53,360 Speaker 1: that they're holding off. Well, that investigation is going on. 495 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:58,320 Speaker 3: So what do you think happens next? Mary Margaret? 496 00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:02,960 Speaker 5: With these protesters, you gave them something of a frosty 497 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:06,560 Speaker 5: high five for being outside and dealing with the very 498 00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 5: frigid Minneapolis wintertime temperatures. So in fairness, you recognize that 499 00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:15,399 Speaker 5: that is that requires some stick toitiveness. But do you 500 00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 5: feel like, from what you've seen, is this fading out 501 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:23,080 Speaker 5: or is their plan to continue and go with this 502 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 5: for the foreseeable future. Because the Trump administration we just 503 00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:30,639 Speaker 5: had on before Assistant Secretary of DHS, and we can 504 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:33,200 Speaker 5: all see from a whole range of different interviews Christy 505 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:35,800 Speaker 5: Nome and Donald Trump have given they're not backing down 506 00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:38,520 Speaker 5: at all. So what do you think the protest movement 507 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:42,440 Speaker 5: here or the direct action lunatics, whatever we should call them, 508 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:43,640 Speaker 5: what are they going to do next? 509 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:47,400 Speaker 1: Well, I mean it's a great question because a lot 510 00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 1: of these people are being paid. And actually, you guys 511 00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 1: will find this interesting. As we were pulling up in 512 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:55,440 Speaker 1: the motorcade, we're getting out, we're about to go in, 513 00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,879 Speaker 1: I heard and I'm ninety nine percent sure that this 514 00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:00,960 Speaker 1: is who I think it was. I heard an activist 515 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:05,280 Speaker 1: yelling into a megaphone. And I've covered a lot of protests. 516 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:09,439 Speaker 1: I cover abortion protests, transgender protests, I covered protesting outside 517 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:12,159 Speaker 1: of the homes of the Supreme Court justices. I know a 518 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:16,040 Speaker 1: lot of the protests, the activists in the DC area, 519 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:18,800 Speaker 1: and I am ninety nine percent sure that this one 520 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,000 Speaker 1: guy that I've encountered many times on the street in 521 00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:24,400 Speaker 1: DC was in Minneapolis with his megaphone, and he has 522 00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:27,680 Speaker 1: told me in DC that he's paid to protest over 523 00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:30,160 Speaker 1: you know, abortion, Supreme Court cases and things like that. 524 00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 1: So that is literally the first protester I heard when 525 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:35,240 Speaker 1: I got to Minneapolis. And you know, it makes you realize, 526 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:37,680 Speaker 1: like a lot of these people are coming from out 527 00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:41,280 Speaker 1: of town. They're being paid to promote this kind of chaos. 528 00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:43,960 Speaker 1: And as long as there are actors that are doing that, 529 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:48,040 Speaker 1: then I think the protesting will continue. And you know, 530 00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:50,480 Speaker 1: when we see incidents like what we saw at the 531 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:54,080 Speaker 1: church in Minneapolis. And by the way, Minneapolis is the 532 00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 1: same place where a trans identifying shooter went into a 533 00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 1: church and killed school children, shot them as they were 534 00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:03,159 Speaker 1: praying like, let's not forget that's the same city. So 535 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:06,679 Speaker 1: on top of that tragedy, to just storm into a 536 00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:10,680 Speaker 1: church and disrupt people as they're worshiping God over your ideology, 537 00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:13,120 Speaker 1: and then the things that these people were ranting were 538 00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:18,240 Speaker 1: just so absurd, and then to defend their actions and 539 00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:22,359 Speaker 1: lie about their actions on television. It's just it's so 540 00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:24,359 Speaker 1: in your face that it's almost a gift to the 541 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 1: right to show people how crazy this this these protesters are, 542 00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:33,000 Speaker 1: and what they're messaging is to really shine a light 543 00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:35,080 Speaker 1: on it and show that it's not coming from misane 544 00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:38,320 Speaker 1: and rational place. And a lot of this protesting is 545 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 1: promoting the misinformation that we're seeing. Whether it's you know, 546 00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:46,240 Speaker 1: that ICE agents are shooting people without provocation, whether that 547 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:49,640 Speaker 1: it's ice agents are storming people's houses without warrants, or 548 00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 1: that they're detaining five year olds. All of these stories 549 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:56,000 Speaker 1: are easily debunkable, and they have been. But these are 550 00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 1: the things that are motivating these people to protest, and 551 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:01,320 Speaker 1: they're they're really getting away with it on the left. 552 00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:04,000 Speaker 1: I mean, these kinds of things are not shown on 553 00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:07,080 Speaker 1: network TV on the left because they don't fit the narrative. 554 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 1: So I think and without accountability when it comes to 555 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:14,440 Speaker 1: legacy media, it's gonna be hard for hard for the 556 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 1: right to really show what's going on. So I know 557 00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:20,480 Speaker 1: the President has talked a lot about how he started 558 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:22,960 Speaker 1: talking about this last week, how important it is for 559 00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:27,000 Speaker 1: DHS to show the crimes of the illegals. I actually 560 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,040 Speaker 1: thought that they've done a decent job of that. They 561 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:30,520 Speaker 1: do put out a lot of messaging on it. But 562 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:34,040 Speaker 1: he came to the briefing last week and just showed 563 00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:36,840 Speaker 1: over and over and over these pictures of the illegal 564 00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 1: immigrants and the crimes that they've committed, and just showed 565 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:43,240 Speaker 1: picture after picture after picture. But I don't know. I've 566 00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:45,560 Speaker 1: been in that briefing room when Caroline Levitt brought in 567 00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 1: an angel mother who cried and looked all those reporters 568 00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:50,960 Speaker 1: in the eye and begged them to tell the truth 569 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:53,320 Speaker 1: about what's going on, and none of them had the 570 00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 1: decency to do so. So I think, you know, the 571 00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:58,720 Speaker 1: media has put us in a tight spot on this, 572 00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:02,040 Speaker 1: and I'm going for my colleagues and for Daily Wire 573 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:04,160 Speaker 1: that we can do the work that we're doing and 574 00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:06,800 Speaker 1: actually share the truth about it as you guys do, 575 00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:08,560 Speaker 1: and as a lot of our friends and media do. 576 00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:11,880 Speaker 1: But it's a dire situation and I think it's incredibly 577 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:15,520 Speaker 1: it's incredibly wrong to not share the full picture here. 578 00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:17,600 Speaker 3: Mary Margaret, last question for you. 579 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:19,640 Speaker 2: Hope you're gonna have a good weekend and survive the 580 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:22,840 Speaker 2: weather that is coming to Washington, d C. You are 581 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:26,200 Speaker 2: in the White House Press briefing room on a daily basis. 582 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:29,480 Speaker 2: President Trump is in there a lot. Caroline Levitt is 583 00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:33,960 Speaker 2: in there. But there's so many press availabilities for President Trump. Privately, 584 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:39,360 Speaker 2: do even the media that clearly dislike President Trump, do 585 00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 2: they ever say privately, Boy, it's kind of amazing to 586 00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:46,400 Speaker 2: get to ask so many questions of him. After they 587 00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:49,280 Speaker 2: hid Joe Biden for four years, Trump has to be 588 00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:53,360 Speaker 2: among the most accessible presidents of all time when it 589 00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:56,360 Speaker 2: comes to media being able to ask him questions about frankly, 590 00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:57,440 Speaker 2: anything under the sun. 591 00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 1: Oh absolutely. I mean, if you look at Caitlyn Collins, 592 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:03,480 Speaker 1: for example, she wasn't in the White House for most 593 00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 1: of Biden's tenure. She came back to, you know, use 594 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:09,400 Speaker 1: the Trump administration to make a name for herself, and 595 00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:11,200 Speaker 1: now she's in the White House all the time. So 596 00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:14,200 Speaker 1: these reporters know that the access is so good for 597 00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:16,800 Speaker 1: them that they will continue to have this access because 598 00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:19,320 Speaker 1: the Trump administration gives it to them. And then you know, 599 00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:22,240 Speaker 1: in passing in conversation, people joke to me all the 600 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:26,320 Speaker 1: time legacy reporters about Biden and his tenure and how 601 00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:28,920 Speaker 1: when he was there the White House was so quiet, 602 00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 1: nothing really went on. You might get like two questions 603 00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:34,280 Speaker 1: into Biden in the course of a year or in 604 00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:37,080 Speaker 1: the course of the administration. My friend Reagan, who works 605 00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:39,240 Speaker 1: for The Daily Caller, she jokes to me all the 606 00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:42,120 Speaker 1: time about the massive difference in the way that conservative 607 00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:45,360 Speaker 1: media was treated. She was an outcast. She was really 608 00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:48,400 Speaker 1: not treated well, and she rarely got questions from Biden, 609 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:51,040 Speaker 1: even though she's a hustler and she tried really hard. 610 00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:54,480 Speaker 1: So I think everyone is aware that the things have 611 00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:58,680 Speaker 1: dramatically changed, and we speak to the president every single day, 612 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:01,680 Speaker 1: like it is so rare that reporters don't get to 613 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 1: speak to the president. And it's so fun too, you know, 614 00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:08,120 Speaker 1: being in there and you know nothing can be happening, 615 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:09,560 Speaker 1: and the next thing you know, you're in the Oval 616 00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:12,320 Speaker 1: office and you can ask the President about the biggest 617 00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:15,040 Speaker 1: news of the day. A little daunting, I will say too. 618 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:19,040 Speaker 1: But it's fun and it's an honor, and I think everyone, 619 00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:22,480 Speaker 1: legacy media included, finds it to be a very exciting 620 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:23,760 Speaker 1: time to be in politics. 621 00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:27,520 Speaker 3: Keep up the good work, Mary Margaret.
