1
00:00:01,920 --> 00:00:06,200
Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George

2
00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:10,320
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty.

3
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:24,320
Speaker 2: Arm Strong and Getty and he Armstrong and Yetty.

4
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:27,800
Speaker 3: They don't necessarily fear in Israeli strike that many belief

5
00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:29,720
Speaker 3: could still happen. What they do fears that all this

6
00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:33,120
Speaker 3: could continue to balloon into some sort of wider crisis

7
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:35,280
Speaker 3: or armed conflict here in the Middle East that could

8
00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:38,760
Speaker 3: in the end pit Iran directly against the United States.

9
00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:40,320
Speaker 3: And one of the things that we've actually been able

10
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:42,519
Speaker 3: to do is we've actually been able to travel through

11
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:44,840
Speaker 3: a substantial part of the northern part of the country.

12
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:46,960
Speaker 3: When you go into the cities there, you do see

13
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:50,880
Speaker 3: a lot of billboards and posters hanging around professing loyalty

14
00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:53,000
Speaker 3: to Hezbolah. One of the big things that you see

15
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:56,920
Speaker 3: there is flag saying his Bola is alive, obviously playing

16
00:00:56,960 --> 00:00:59,280
Speaker 3: on the fact that so many of the Hisbolah leaders

17
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 3: have been killed.

18
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:05,040
Speaker 4: That's interesting. That was from CNNA lead yesterday. Iran not

19
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,520
Speaker 4: so worried about an Israel strike, They're worried about war

20
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:11,480
Speaker 4: with the United States. Well, good, that's what deterrence is.

21
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:14,520
Speaker 4: And there hasn't been enough.

22
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:16,839
Speaker 2: Goal, don't escalate.

23
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:19,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, there hasn't been enough people worried about us escalating.

24
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:23,200
Speaker 4: So it sounds like maybe Iran is Benjamin Nett and

25
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 4: Yahoo with a message to the people of Lebanon. Yesterday,

26
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 4: any who in Bremmer tweeted out a dramatic shift in

27
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:33,560
Speaker 4: war goals from the Israeli Prime Minister. It went from

28
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 4: pushing back Hesbela from the border and returning the Israelis

29
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:39,480
Speaker 4: to their homes. Sixty thousand Israelis that have had to

30
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:42,880
Speaker 4: leave their homes and have been away for a year.

31
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 2: That's crazy, can you imagine.

32
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 4: No, the goal is now removing Hesbla from power, the

33
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:54,559
Speaker 4: most serious escalation from Israel since the war in Gaza began.

34
00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 4: This is the biggest escalation announced escalation since the whole

35
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 4: thing began. Our goal is now to eliminate Hesbela.

36
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 1: So you have to keep in mind they're a political

37
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 1: party with an army, which is crazy by American standards, certainly,

38
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:14,800
Speaker 1: but Hesbela is enormously influential in Lebanese politics.

39
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 4: So going through some of the information that came out yesterday,

40
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 4: Iran warned a whole bunch of golf country countries that

41
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:25,640
Speaker 4: any use of their airspace by Israel or the United

42
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 4: States against Iran, they will face retaliation.

43
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:32,280
Speaker 2: Okay, fine, they're either scared or they're not.

44
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 4: The US State Department said yesterday that they support Israeli

45
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:40,200
Speaker 4: ground operations in southern Lebanon and do not support any

46
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:44,919
Speaker 4: kind of ceasefire between Israel and Hesbela, with statements earlier

47
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,919
Speaker 4: by Hisbel officials calling for a ceasefire. So I thought

48
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 4: that was interesting. Hesbola came out yesterday if you weren't

49
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,680
Speaker 4: paying attention and said, okay, we want to cease fire now,

50
00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 4: and our State Department actually said nat no ceasefires.

51
00:02:56,480 --> 00:03:00,239
Speaker 2: I was surprised by that. It's a head spinnerbout this.

52
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:02,080
Speaker 2: I don't know if you know good.

53
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 4: I don't know if you know Amos Yadlin, former major

54
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 4: general in the Israeli Air Force as well as the

55
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:13,239
Speaker 4: former head of the Israeli military intelligence. So like that,

56
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,800
Speaker 4: you know they're d And I set on CNN yesterday

57
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:19,400
Speaker 4: the Israeli attack on Iran will be something that has

58
00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:23,680
Speaker 4: never been seen since seen in the Middle East. Okay,

59
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:28,919
Speaker 4: so that sounds big. This also from os I in

60
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:32,239
Speaker 4: t that's open source intelligence According to US officials, the

61
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:37,000
Speaker 4: United States has discussed options for joining Israel's retaliation against Iran,

62
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:41,280
Speaker 4: including very limited strikes against targets inside of Iran, targets

63
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 4: against Iranian naval assets, as well as targeting of the

64
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 4: Revolutionary Guard core sites in Syria and Yemen. These though

65
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:56,680
Speaker 4: these are seen as less likely as a just intelligence sharing,

66
00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 4: Like we would help them with the important intelligence you

67
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 4: would need to pull that Off's opposed to like actual

68
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 4: US planes or anything like that. But we're going to

69
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 4: help them out, but not with well, I'll read this.

70
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 4: According to two US officials who spoke to NBC, Israel

71
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 4: is still not yet brief the United States on their

72
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 4: response to the ballistic missile attack, Despite officials telling Israel

73
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:20,320
Speaker 4: that they would possibly support them with intelligence and additional strikes,

74
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 4: US officials do not believe that Israel has made the

75
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:27,160
Speaker 4: final decision. So the big New York Times story yesterday

76
00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:29,640
Speaker 4: that we referenced but I hadn't read yet, which has

77
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:33,560
Speaker 4: got like ten different writers on it, including David Sanger,

78
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 4: who is probably the best writer on this sort of stuff,

79
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 4: says that Israel doesn't have the capability to take out

80
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:47,719
Speaker 4: those nuclear sites. The United States does. Israel doesn't. So

81
00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 4: that's why France and Great Britain made the announcement yesterday

82
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:59,679
Speaker 4: they will not aid the United States in any trying

83
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 4: to or Israel in any trying to take out those sites.

84
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:04,599
Speaker 4: So it's basically telling the United States, you do this,

85
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:08,279
Speaker 4: you're completely on your own. We realize if this happens,

86
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 4: it's going to be you United States, not Israel, and

87
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 4: we're not.

88
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,480
Speaker 2: Okay with it. That's basically what that announcement was.

89
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:17,400
Speaker 1: Yeh, or even we want the world to know it

90
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,680
Speaker 1: wasn't us could be yeah, because they have, you know,

91
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,680
Speaker 1: similar capabilities, maybe not as good, but similar.

92
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:26,280
Speaker 4: While much of the public discussion is focused on the

93
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,839
Speaker 4: fact that Iran could almost certainly ramp up enrichment to

94
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:32,800
Speaker 4: produce bomb grade uranium in a matter of weeks, the

95
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:36,039
Speaker 4: more relevant fact is that it would take Iranian engineers

96
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:39,200
Speaker 4: months or maybe a year to actually fashion that fuel

97
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:40,800
Speaker 4: into a deliverable weapon.

98
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 2: I thought that was good to know.

99
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:46,200
Speaker 4: Meanwhile, Iran has stepped up production of Iranian and rich

100
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:49,800
Speaker 4: to sixty percent purity, just shy of bomb grade, and

101
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:51,880
Speaker 4: it now has enough of that fuel for three or

102
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:55,080
Speaker 4: four bombs, experts believe, and getting it to bomb grade

103
00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 4: at ninety percent would just take days. So I guess

104
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:01,919
Speaker 4: getting the uranium the bomb grade is something that they

105
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:04,040
Speaker 4: can do in a couple of days. Actually fashioning it

106
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:07,120
Speaker 4: into a weapon they could deliver anywhere is months or

107
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:07,560
Speaker 4: a year.

108
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:12,320
Speaker 1: Yeah. I was reading about the the mechanics of the

109
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:16,240
Speaker 1: triggering mechanism for nuclear arms, and it's much more complicated

110
00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:19,360
Speaker 1: than I'd imagined. It's very, very sophisticated.

111
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:24,839
Speaker 4: Technically, We're the only ones that have these thirty thousand

112
00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 4: pound bombs that are necessary to reach these Iranian facilities

113
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:34,159
Speaker 4: that are way underground. Israel doesn't have that we do,

114
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:38,919
Speaker 4: and the planes necessary to actually drop them. But I

115
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 4: thought this was interesting if you, just like me, have

116
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:44,880
Speaker 4: a tendency to call Joe Biden a do nothing chicken.

117
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 2: President George W.

118
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:49,920
Speaker 4: Bush turned aside Israel's demands to give its air force

119
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,719
Speaker 4: the United States biggest bunker busting bombs and the B

120
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:55,159
Speaker 4: two bombers that are needed to deliver them. Those weapons

121
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:58,040
Speaker 4: would be essential in any effort to take out four

122
00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 4: Toho and some of the other facilities. Bush said no.

123
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:06,039
Speaker 4: That decision touched off an argument inside the White House.

124
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:06,719
Speaker 2: Back in the day.

125
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:09,480
Speaker 4: Vice President Dick Cheney embraced the idea of a strike

126
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 4: no shock, but Bush held fast, arguing that the United

127
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 4: States could not risk another war in the Middle East,

128
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,040
Speaker 4: probably thinking this whole Iraq thing has gone, so well,

129
00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 4: how about let's not fight Iraq and Iran at the

130
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:22,120
Speaker 4: same time.

131
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was just going to say that the circumstances

132
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 1: were very different, but there you go.

133
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 4: Ahud Barak, who was Prime minister and Israel's highest ranking

134
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:35,040
Speaker 4: uniformed officer at one point, gave an interview back in

135
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 4: twenty nineteen that said Bush's warning did not really make

136
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:40,240
Speaker 4: any difference for US as of the end of two

137
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 4: thousand and eight. He said Israel did not have a

138
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 4: plan for attacking Iran. They didn't have the capability, but

139
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,200
Speaker 4: so Bush turned down giving them the stuff to do it.

140
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 4: So it's not the first time we've said, nah, we're

141
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 4: not all in on taking out those facilities.

142
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 2: I'm not exactly sure why. Oh, and then I wanted

143
00:07:58,320 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 2: to play this.

144
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:02,840
Speaker 4: So this is oppositeosition to what's the prime minister up

145
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,360
Speaker 4: in Canada, the pretty boy what's his name?

146
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 2: Trudeau?

147
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 4: So yeah, justin Trudeau. This is the opposition to Trudeau.

148
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:11,920
Speaker 4: He was asked if.

149
00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 2: He garf model Justin Trudeau.

150
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 4: This guy was asked if he would support a strike

151
00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 4: on Iran's nuclear bomb facilities and if Israel were.

152
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:30,240
Speaker 5: To stop that genocidal, theocratic, unstable government from acquiring nuclear weapons,

153
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 5: it would be a gift by the Jewish state to humanity.

154
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:37,160
Speaker 4: That's a pretty tough talk out of a Canadian, but

155
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:40,360
Speaker 4: I would agree. You've got that that great pier pula Vera.

156
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:42,600
Speaker 4: Is that how you pronounce his name? The opposition guy?

157
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:44,360
Speaker 2: He kicks ass? I love him.

158
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:46,960
Speaker 4: You got one of the worst regimes on planet Earth

159
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:50,280
Speaker 4: screaming toward a nuclear weapon. This is the best time

160
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:54,000
Speaker 4: there's ever going to be with more world support than

161
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,800
Speaker 4: there ever will ever be to try to take it out.

162
00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:59,520
Speaker 4: And I can't believe we're not taking this moment. This

163
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 4: is a major world decision.

164
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:02,880
Speaker 2: All right.

165
00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:05,320
Speaker 1: This is the opposite of the whole when's the best

166
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 1: time to plant an oak tree forty years ago?

167
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:08,840
Speaker 2: When's the second best time today?

168
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:11,160
Speaker 1: When's the best time to cut down an oak tree

169
00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:14,160
Speaker 1: forty years ago? What's the second best time before it

170
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 1: falls on your house today?

171
00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:19,439
Speaker 2: So yeah, I get that. This is a major decision. Though.

172
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:22,400
Speaker 4: If Iran ends up having the bomb a year from now,

173
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,200
Speaker 4: and then they use it in some horrifying way that

174
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:29,720
Speaker 4: could touch off who knows what on the planet. It

175
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 4: will be remembered that there was a chance.

176
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 2: To stop it.

177
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:35,959
Speaker 1: But because remember, they don't need a sophisticated missile and

178
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:37,439
Speaker 1: triggering mechanism to deliver it.

179
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 2: They could deliver it on a boat. Right. I only

180
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:42,679
Speaker 2: know what I know.

181
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:46,319
Speaker 4: I don't know all the stuff that they know in

182
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:49,400
Speaker 4: the intelligence department about Iran's capabilities or other hotspots in

183
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:51,280
Speaker 4: the world, or whatever else is going on. One thing,

184
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:54,760
Speaker 4: from reading David Sanger's book, there are so many things

185
00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 4: you don't know while these stories are unfolding. Like one

186
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:00,640
Speaker 4: thing I came across the other day because I'm almost

187
00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:02,920
Speaker 4: done with the book. Remember when Biden went to Kiev.

188
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 4: He actually went to Kiev and walked through the streets

189
00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:13,720
Speaker 4: with Zelensky in quite a show of support. We called

190
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:19,160
Speaker 4: Blinkeln called Putin and said Biden's coming to Kiev, heads up,

191
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 4: and Putin said, got it.

192
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 2: We actually told him ahead of time, with you better not.

193
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:29,720
Speaker 4: And I guess it was trusting that Putin would realize

194
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:33,720
Speaker 4: that's a no go. Oh yeah, clearly I thought that

195
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:35,880
Speaker 4: was very interesting because there was all this secrecy and

196
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:37,760
Speaker 4: lead up on all the reporting around it was they

197
00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:39,160
Speaker 4: put him on a train in the middle of the

198
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:41,839
Speaker 4: night and snuck him into all this stuff. True because

199
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:45,840
Speaker 4: you never know about rogue bad guys. But the biggest

200
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 4: threat of would Russia tried to take him out. No,

201
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:50,360
Speaker 4: we told him head up, heads up, ahead of time. Yeah,

202
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,440
Speaker 4: I'd stay away from Kiev. Biden's going to be there.

203
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,079
Speaker 4: So that's interesting that we have that. We don't think

204
00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:56,680
Speaker 4: he's a complete mad man obviously.

205
00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:59,520
Speaker 1: Oh right, yeah, yeah, that makes perfect sense to me.

206
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:01,520
Speaker 1: It's the same reason we have a phone line to

207
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:04,120
Speaker 1: you know, Russian or Chinese general is to say, hey,

208
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:05,360
Speaker 1: we're going to do some maneuvers.

209
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,319
Speaker 2: It is strictly training maneuvers. Nobody freak out.

210
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,960
Speaker 4: But my point avoid the horrific mistake. My point making

211
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 4: there's always stuff going on that you don't know about

212
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:16,439
Speaker 4: at the time. But I gotta believe if I was

213
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:19,320
Speaker 4: president of the United States, I'd be all about attacking

214
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 4: rand taking out those nuclear facilities while we got the chance.

215
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,000
Speaker 4: And the world can moan and bitch about it all

216
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:26,439
Speaker 4: they want, they'll forget about it in a month. But

217
00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:29,520
Speaker 4: Irani get no damn bomb, you're neo khon.

218
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:31,320
Speaker 2: I just thought i'd throw that out there.

219
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 1: Two very quick headlines, US frustrated by Israel's reluctance to

220
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:38,440
Speaker 1: share Iran retaliation plans. I'm not surprised they're not sharing

221
00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:41,120
Speaker 1: it because Biden can't be counted on. And then this

222
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:47,840
Speaker 1: one report Biden offering Israel compensation to not hit Iranian targets, arms, money,

223
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:51,120
Speaker 1: and diplomatic guarantees. If you just hold back, We'll really

224
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 1: take care of you.

225
00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:52,439
Speaker 2: Wow.

226
00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:57,640
Speaker 1: Interesting CBS News torn asunder by actually doing journalism.

227
00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:01,720
Speaker 4: This is delicious, really enjoying it. Got more on that

228
00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:04,480
Speaker 4: to come. I'm just gonna say, I remember back in

229
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:06,560
Speaker 4: the day. It's the advantage of being old. I guess

230
00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:11,440
Speaker 4: I remember Bill Clinton. North Korea will not be allowed

231
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,120
Speaker 4: to get a nuclear weapon. Been through those a couple

232
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:17,760
Speaker 4: of times in my lifetime, and then they do. And

233
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,360
Speaker 4: that's what president after president has been saying about Iran.

234
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:26,280
Speaker 4: We've got more on the waist to hear merk Adams

235
00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:30,160
Speaker 4: announce he's running for reelection. Awesome, Eh, go get America

236
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 4: more on that way.

237
00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:35,480
Speaker 2: You know what we haven't gotten to is that.

238
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:42,000
Speaker 1: Awfulness of the Chicago School System and the Teachers' Union

239
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 1: and Brandon Johnson. It's one of the most egregious things

240
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 1: I've ever seen. It's shocking, anyway. Speaking of shocking, CBS

241
00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:51,440
Speaker 1: News torn asunder by the fact that some of their

242
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:55,320
Speaker 1: journalists actually did journalism and their woke staffers have freaked

243
00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:57,480
Speaker 1: out over it. The behind the scenes tape is just

244
00:12:57,520 --> 00:12:59,360
Speaker 1: too good to be true. We'll play that for you

245
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:02,600
Speaker 1: next segment. But the irony of it is that the

246
00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:07,240
Speaker 1: self righteous lefties are saying that interview showed bias. We

247
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:11,200
Speaker 1: can't have bias at CBS News, which is just truly

248
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:17,720
Speaker 1: hilarious anyway. For example, you have the Bill Whitaker Kamala

249
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:21,439
Speaker 1: Harris interview on sixty Minutes, and we played Monday before

250
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:25,319
Speaker 1: it aired some of the preview, the excerpts that had

251
00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 1: aired Unface the Nation on Sunday, and her long rambling

252
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 1: answer about whether Netnyao, who was listening to us or

253
00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 1: not clipped forty Michael.

254
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:38,080
Speaker 2: This is from the preview, remember, but it seems that

255
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:41,440
Speaker 2: Prime Minister Netanya who is not listening.

256
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:47,200
Speaker 6: Well, Bill, the work that we have done has resulted

257
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:52,880
Speaker 6: in a number of movements in that region by Israel

258
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:58,640
Speaker 6: that were very much prompted by or a result of

259
00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:02,520
Speaker 6: many things in including our advocacy for what needs to

260
00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:03,440
Speaker 6: happen in the region.

261
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:08,720
Speaker 1: Great Scott diagram that sentence if you dare anyway. So

262
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 1: that's the preview. Then by the time it actually aired,

263
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:15,040
Speaker 1: because nobody watches the damn Sunday shows, but poor Jack

264
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:20,840
Speaker 1: I do. I refuse, although they are occasionally interesting. So

265
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:26,960
Speaker 1: when it actually aired sixty minutes Monday night, this is

266
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:27,960
Speaker 1: what it sounded like.

267
00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:32,400
Speaker 2: But it seems that Prime Minister Netanya who is not listening,

268
00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:33,200
Speaker 2: We're not.

269
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:36,800
Speaker 6: Going to stop pursuing what is necessary for the United

270
00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:38,880
Speaker 6: States to be clear about where we stand on the

271
00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:40,480
Speaker 6: need for this war to end.

272
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:46,240
Speaker 4: Well, so let me get this straight. So the cleaned

273
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:48,280
Speaker 4: up version is what aired on sixty minutes.

274
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:51,720
Speaker 2: That's correct, the shorter, coherent version.

275
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:57,320
Speaker 4: See, I don't like it either way, but you edited

276
00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 4: it that way for the promo piece on Facinination.

277
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:01,600
Speaker 2: Okay, I get it.

278
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:05,360
Speaker 4: You're promoing your big show where the like a million

279
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:08,480
Speaker 4: people watch face the nation, tens of millions of people

280
00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:11,880
Speaker 4: probably watched sixty minutes. I haven't seen the numbers yet,

281
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,080
Speaker 4: so I could see, you know, the little teaser, but

282
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:18,760
Speaker 4: you edited it to make her sound better for the

283
00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 4: big show. Yes, that ain't so cool at all.

284
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 1: I wonder if they got some sort of pushback from

285
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:28,520
Speaker 1: the Face the Nation preview. Somebody freaked out, whether it

286
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:31,920
Speaker 1: was internally or from the Harris campaign or something, and

287
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:33,880
Speaker 1: they removed They took.

288
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:36,840
Speaker 4: The world the word salad out. And I would like

289
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:38,920
Speaker 4: to know if Bill Whitaker had any knowledge of that.

290
00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:39,760
Speaker 2: He might not have.

291
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 4: He may have, he may have been in charge of it,

292
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:43,560
Speaker 4: or he might have had zero knowledge. I don't know,

293
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:45,640
Speaker 4: but that'd be a good question.

294
00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:50,520
Speaker 2: When the and this is not a trivial question.

295
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:54,480
Speaker 1: I don't think the big knock against Kamala Harris, right,

296
00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 1: is that she's got an empty head, right, Yes, that

297
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:00,640
Speaker 1: is her I think is that bit she is a

298
00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:02,160
Speaker 1: underpaint in Jacksworth.

299
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:06,200
Speaker 4: The biggest knock is she will not do confrontational interviews

300
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:09,000
Speaker 4: because she can't handle it. If you edited it in

301
00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:10,760
Speaker 4: such a way to make it look like she can

302
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:14,880
Speaker 4: handle it better, that's really really.

303
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 1: Bad, right, Right, And again, this is the same CBS

304
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:22,720
Speaker 1: you're about to hear, who are aghast that there could

305
00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:26,240
Speaker 1: be any bias when somebody makes a conservative point. The

306
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:33,800
Speaker 1: Tiffany Network, Tiffany the pop singer from the eighties. Man

307
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 1: even with the editing, she like super whift on several questions.

308
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:42,520
Speaker 2: So huh oh, yeah, well she's incompetent.

309
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:45,440
Speaker 4: Is she going to get elected president without doing a

310
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 4: single press conference like where she stands there and takes

311
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:51,000
Speaker 4: question after question after question like Trump has done multiple times?

312
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:52,960
Speaker 2: She will attempt to do that. Yeah.

313
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:56,320
Speaker 1: Whether the American people choose to grant her that high

314
00:16:56,360 --> 00:17:01,160
Speaker 1: office or not as yet to be decided. There are

315
00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:03,080
Speaker 1: times I can't believe what I'm seeing.

316
00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:03,760
Speaker 2: I know it.

317
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:05,600
Speaker 4: It doesn't seem like it's real. It does seem like

318
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:07,359
Speaker 4: it's a TV show and not real.

319
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:11,919
Speaker 1: And done a good one either entertaining but utterly unrealistic. Anyway,

320
00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:16,160
Speaker 1: the CBS behind the scenes audio, Oh I can't wait.

321
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:18,359
Speaker 2: Stay with us, Armstrong and Geddy.

322
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,560
Speaker 4: We will get to it again. Kamala did a couple

323
00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:25,520
Speaker 4: of interviews yesterday. She did the view she did Colbert,

324
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:30,480
Speaker 4: She's doing Stern today. I think anyway, a couple of

325
00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:32,639
Speaker 4: answers that are quite amazing. We'll get to that maybe

326
00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 4: hour four.

327
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:35,280
Speaker 2: She is a.

328
00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:40,879
Speaker 1: Gibbering idiot in short. Anyway, I'll tell you who's not

329
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:44,800
Speaker 1: a gibbering idiot Tony Decopple of CBS News, nor is

330
00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:52,040
Speaker 1: Tanaheazy Coats, the widely worshiped anti racism author, saint of

331
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:58,119
Speaker 1: the left. Unquestionably incredibly bright and creative guy. He's just

332
00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:00,400
Speaker 1: wrong about a lot of things in my mind. So

333
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:02,159
Speaker 1: he's got a new book out and he went on

334
00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:05,520
Speaker 1: CBS this morning to promote it. And instead of the

335
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:08,359
Speaker 1: soft ballish interview that I think everybody, including some of

336
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:12,919
Speaker 1: the staff expected, Tony Dcoppel, who's one of their folks

337
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:19,040
Speaker 1: generalist staffers, asked him some really challenging questions about the

338
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:24,479
Speaker 1: book and particularly how it is starkly, staunchly anti Israel.

339
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:31,479
Speaker 1: And to skip to the next part. This is so

340
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 1: torn apart CBS News that there are teeth gnashing, tear stained, yelling,

341
00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:41,439
Speaker 1: arguments going on behind the scenes, meetings, soul searching, the

342
00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:45,119
Speaker 1: rest of it. Because Jacoppel was so out of line,

343
00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:47,240
Speaker 1: it was so abandoning.

344
00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 2: CBS is principe it was biased.

345
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:54,040
Speaker 1: Can you imagine CBS being biased anyway, here's a chunk

346
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:55,159
Speaker 1: of that interview.

347
00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:56,640
Speaker 2: Judge for yourself.

348
00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:59,119
Speaker 7: Tanajaja, I want to dive into the Israel Palace one

349
00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:01,600
Speaker 7: section of the books, section of the book, And I

350
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:04,840
Speaker 7: have to say, when I read the book, I imagine if

351
00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:07,159
Speaker 7: I took your name out of it, took away the

352
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:09,800
Speaker 7: awards and the acclaim, took the cover off the book,

353
00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:10,760
Speaker 7: the publishing.

354
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:11,000
Speaker 2: House goes away.

355
00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:14,920
Speaker 7: The content of that section would not be out of place.

356
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:16,760
Speaker 2: In the backpack of an extremist.

357
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:20,119
Speaker 7: And so then I found myself wondering, why do is

358
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:22,680
Speaker 7: Tanahashi Coates, who I've known for a long time, read

359
00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:25,200
Speaker 7: his work for a long time, very talented, smart guy,

360
00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:28,800
Speaker 7: leave out so much? Why leave out that Israel is

361
00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:30,080
Speaker 7: surrounded by countries that.

362
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:32,480
Speaker 2: Want to eliminate it. Why leave out that.

363
00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:35,000
Speaker 7: Israel deals with terror groups that want to eliminate it?

364
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,600
Speaker 7: Why not detail anything of the first and the second Intifat,

365
00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:41,400
Speaker 7: of the cafe bombings, the bus bombings, the little kids

366
00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:45,040
Speaker 7: blown to bits? And is it because you just don't

367
00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:49,080
Speaker 7: believe that Israel in any condition has a right to exist?

368
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:52,840
Speaker 8: Well, I would say the perspective that you just outlined,

369
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,480
Speaker 8: there is no shortage of that perspective in American media.

370
00:19:57,240 --> 00:19:58,400
Speaker 2: That's the first thing I would say.

371
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,000
Speaker 8: I am most concerned always with those who don't have

372
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:03,520
Speaker 8: a voice with those who don't have.

373
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:04,440
Speaker 2: The ability to talk.

374
00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 8: I have asked repeatedly in my interviews whether there is

375
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:14,359
Speaker 8: a single network, mainstream organization in America with a Palestinian

376
00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:17,640
Speaker 8: American bureau chief or correspondent who actually has a voice

377
00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:21,000
Speaker 8: to articulate their part of the world. I've been a

378
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:25,040
Speaker 8: reporter for twenty years. The reporters of those who believe

379
00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:29,560
Speaker 8: more sympathetically about Israel and it's right to exist don't

380
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:32,119
Speaker 8: have a problem getting their voice out. But what I

381
00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 8: saw in Palestine, what I saw on the West Bank,

382
00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:38,200
Speaker 8: what I saw in Haifa in Israel, what I saw

383
00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:40,399
Speaker 8: in the South Hebln Hills, those were the stories that

384
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:42,359
Speaker 8: I have not heard, and those were the stories that

385
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:44,760
Speaker 8: I was most occupied with. I wrote a two hundred

386
00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:48,280
Speaker 8: and sixty page book. It is not a treatise on

387
00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:52,440
Speaker 8: the entirety of the conflict between the Palestinians and the Israelis.

388
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:57,720
Speaker 1: That was a frank exchange of views in an intelligent

389
00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:02,680
Speaker 1: and gentlemanly way. The idea that that would Royal CBS

390
00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:05,359
Speaker 1: News is hilarious.

391
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,840
Speaker 4: There was a Tierry staff meeting, is what it was

392
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:12,439
Speaker 4: described at in New York Post. Tierry staff meeting people

393
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:19,640
Speaker 4: nearly crying, as Tony Dekoppel told staffers he regretted putting

394
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:21,680
Speaker 4: them in a difficult situation.

395
00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:24,879
Speaker 2: Hmm, that's an interesting way to phrase it.

396
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:30,040
Speaker 1: So we have through means that would make Dick Cheney blush,

397
00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:36,679
Speaker 1: obtained the behind the scenes meeting audio. We have violated

398
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:39,440
Speaker 1: the laws of God and man adio.

399
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:41,840
Speaker 2: Oh he needs a car battery and in a pan of water.

400
00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:48,160
Speaker 1: Oh boy, you can. Let's just leave it there. One

401
00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:52,720
Speaker 1: of the voices you're going to hear here is that

402
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:56,040
Speaker 1: of what is her first name? I thought I had

403
00:21:56,040 --> 00:22:03,399
Speaker 1: that all in front of me. It doesn't matter. Miss

404
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:08,480
Speaker 1: Rourke is a high up executive in CBS News. And

405
00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:10,639
Speaker 1: let's just start with one hundred Michael, and we'll go

406
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:12,520
Speaker 1: from there. And I want to I.

407
00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:15,879
Speaker 9: Want to take time to remind us all of something.

408
00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:20,240
Speaker 9: When we step into a new room and we pick

409
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:23,720
Speaker 9: up a microphone or a cammon, when we sit down

410
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:27,439
Speaker 9: for an interview, produce a story report from the scene,

411
00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:32,040
Speaker 9: or anchor show, we need to remember that we are

412
00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:35,760
Speaker 9: journalists and as hard as this is, that means we

413
00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:42,399
Speaker 9: set our personal feelings and beliefs aside. Our job is

414
00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:48,679
Speaker 9: to serve our audiences. Without bias or perceived bias, to

415
00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:52,120
Speaker 9: provide objective news that they that we know and they

416
00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:53,320
Speaker 9: know they can trust.

417
00:22:55,280 --> 00:23:00,359
Speaker 1: Okay, wow, well you've failed miserably at that for thirty

418
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:08,160
Speaker 1: years or so. I appreciate hearing the words, But why

419
00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:11,560
Speaker 1: now I think I think I've learned.

420
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:13,399
Speaker 4: I thought I knew everything there was to know about

421
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:15,000
Speaker 4: bias and news and that sort of stuff. But I

422
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:18,480
Speaker 4: think I've learned in the last month or so, with

423
00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:23,800
Speaker 4: the debates and everything, bias is ways more powerful.

424
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:24,160
Speaker 2: Than I realized.

425
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,720
Speaker 4: And when you have bias yourself, and then I want

426
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:31,560
Speaker 4: to look at it myself. These people actually believe they're

427
00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:34,919
Speaker 4: being fair to both sides. So I got to believe

428
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:38,639
Speaker 4: that Nora O'Donnell and what's her name, Margaret Brennan the

429
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:41,720
Speaker 4: debate the other night, they actually believe they handled that fairly,

430
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:44,440
Speaker 4: and not that you fact checked one side.

431
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:46,760
Speaker 2: And let the other side say whatever they want. They

432
00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:47,720
Speaker 2: actually believe it.

433
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:53,280
Speaker 1: Which is scarier than you know, them being deliberately biased. Yeah,

434
00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:57,000
Speaker 1: unconscious bias. How do you fight that? I suppose educating people,

435
00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,600
Speaker 1: But they consider themselves to be the elite of the elite.

436
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,960
Speaker 1: About dare we dirty their garments with our clawing hands

437
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:07,160
Speaker 1: asking them to actually be you know, fair.

438
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 4: Because they saw this interview that we just played a

439
00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:12,639
Speaker 4: chunk of and thought it was it was like a

440
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:16,960
Speaker 4: hit piece from the journalist as opposed to Both sides

441
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:18,960
Speaker 4: got to say their part right.

442
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:22,440
Speaker 1: Adriann Rourke is the head of News Gathering and editorial

443
00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:24,840
Speaker 1: Manager one O two, Michael, we will.

444
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:26,760
Speaker 9: Still want I want to be clear. We will still

445
00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:31,360
Speaker 9: ask questions. We will we still hold people accountable. That's

446
00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:34,760
Speaker 9: part of our job too, but we will do so

447
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:39,440
Speaker 9: objectively and that means very plain. We have to check

448
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:42,560
Speaker 9: up bias and opinions at the door and that applies

449
00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:46,920
Speaker 9: to every single point. We are not here to represent

450
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:50,359
Speaker 9: any viewpoint. We are here to tell stories and I

451
00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:53,560
Speaker 9: say this a lot. We are here to report news

452
00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:56,200
Speaker 9: without fear or faith.

453
00:24:56,640 --> 00:25:00,399
Speaker 4: So that that meeting would have been great after the

454
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:03,800
Speaker 4: Trump Harris debate if it had been because who had

455
00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:06,200
Speaker 4: that ABC, That would have been great to hear that

456
00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:08,160
Speaker 4: after that where they just realized, well we went way

457
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:11,399
Speaker 4: too far. We fact checked one candidate ten times and

458
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:12,680
Speaker 4: the other candidate not at all.

459
00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:13,840
Speaker 2: We need to.

460
00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:17,679
Speaker 4: Or after last Tuesday or Tuesday's debate, the vice president

461
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:20,000
Speaker 4: if cbsn'd at that meeting. After that debate, I would

462
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:23,520
Speaker 4: have thought, oh, that makes sense. Yeah, but after this interview,

463
00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:25,200
Speaker 4: here are you kidding?

464
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:26,879
Speaker 2: Rights? It's amazing.

465
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:30,200
Speaker 1: You're right. I take your point. She is being sincere.

466
00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 1: She thinks she is not full of crap. One A

467
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:35,160
Speaker 1: final clip one O three.

468
00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:37,679
Speaker 9: I want to Acknowlange. There a lot of times that

469
00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:40,520
Speaker 9: we do this really and then there are times that

470
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:44,640
Speaker 9: we don't, and there are times we fail our audiences

471
00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:50,120
Speaker 9: and we fail each other. We're in one of those

472
00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:54,199
Speaker 9: times right now, and it's been growing and now we.

473
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:55,399
Speaker 2: Are at a tipping.

474
00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:59,600
Speaker 9: Many of you have reached out to express concerns over

475
00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:05,679
Speaker 9: recent reporting, specifically about the CBS Morning's Coaches interview our

476
00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:08,840
Speaker 9: last week, as well as comments made coming out of

477
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:11,840
Speaker 9: some of our correspondents reporting. I want to thank every

478
00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:19,000
Speaker 9: single reached out for your honesty, your transparency, and.

479
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,880
Speaker 2: Your timid boy, but not the debate. You didn't mention

480
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:25,560
Speaker 2: the debate in there. Yeah that's that's funny, isn't it.

481
00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:26,280
Speaker 1: Ah?

482
00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:32,560
Speaker 2: So what was I going to say? Wow? Well, that's

483
00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:34,199
Speaker 2: the lesson. Put it out of my head as I

484
00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:35,240
Speaker 2: chased down something else.

485
00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:37,440
Speaker 4: That's the lesson for all of us, is that our

486
00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:42,040
Speaker 4: bias going into it is so clouding of our perception.

487
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:46,520
Speaker 4: Apparently that the things have gotten completely out of hand here,

488
00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:50,879
Speaker 4: completely out of hand. Somebody presented a you that wasn't progressive,

489
00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:51,840
Speaker 4: and that's crazy.

490
00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:57,720
Speaker 1: For years after the death of George Floyd, CBS this morning,

491
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:01,439
Speaker 1: and not to mention all of their other plants spouted

492
00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:06,840
Speaker 1: the far left, neo Marxist, anti racist, black lives matter

493
00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:12,800
Speaker 1: point of view, without opposition, without opposition, Nobody was even

494
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:17,480
Speaker 1: allowed to say, Hey, you know, that's actually a Marxist organization.

495
00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:23,720
Speaker 1: They're using black resentment to further their far left goals.

496
00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:27,800
Speaker 1: Nobody was even allowed to say that on CBS, though

497
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:32,040
Speaker 1: it is clearly true. For years and now, poor Tony

498
00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:36,639
Speaker 1: Dcoppel dares question in a very fair and gentlemanly manner,

499
00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:41,560
Speaker 1: one of the paragons of sainthood of the left, who

500
00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:47,399
Speaker 1: responds intelligently and forcefully and defends himself in quite a

501
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:51,400
Speaker 1: lovely fashion, even if I think he's wrong ultimately, and

502
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:57,239
Speaker 1: that is the cause of soul searching at CBS. It's uh,

503
00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:02,200
Speaker 1: it's something. Let's take a quick break. Tell you about

00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:44,280
Speaker 2: Katie? Do you know it's.

545
00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:47,960
Speaker 10: It's it's basically like a strip of temporary tattoos that

546
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:49,600
Speaker 10: goes over your nose, kind of like one of those

547
00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:51,400
Speaker 10: nose strips, and then you get it wet and peel

548
00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:54,080
Speaker 10: it off and there's a whole bunch of glitter freckles

549
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:54,760
Speaker 10: so stupid.

550
00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:57,760
Speaker 2: It's fine. It seems like more like something you do

551
00:29:57,800 --> 00:30:00,040
Speaker 2: if you're fourteen year old.

552
00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:03,520
Speaker 4: An eight year old girl, but not a thirty four

553
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:04,160
Speaker 4: year old woman.

554
00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:06,920
Speaker 10: It's huge in like the rave slash Coachella.

555
00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:10,520
Speaker 4: Okay, so she was stoned, that's what's going Damn hippy.

556
00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:13,920
Speaker 4: She's probably probably took Exsta see where she comes.

557
00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:18,400
Speaker 1: In the booth, probably so damn drug taking hippie junkies.

558
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:19,360
Speaker 2: I'm not actually hippy.

559
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:21,520
Speaker 4: I'm not actually bothered by any of the tea swizzle

560
00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:23,800
Speaker 4: stuff around the football and the Chiefs. The only part

561
00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:27,960
Speaker 4: of it that bothers me is her overreaction to just

562
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:33,680
Speaker 4: a mundane catch, you know, like a five yard completion whatever,

563
00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:36,479
Speaker 4: second and five, you know, you get whatever.

564
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:39,600
Speaker 2: I mean, Just that's not that big a deal. People

565
00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:40,840
Speaker 2: don't go Chriss.

566
00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:44,040
Speaker 1: Always bothered you about her, right, She wins the seven

567
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:46,400
Speaker 1: hundred and third award of her career and acts as.

568
00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:50,360
Speaker 2: If they finally love me, with their mouths wide open

569
00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:52,920
Speaker 2: and everything. But yeah, but he, cause she's just enthusiastic.

570
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:56,320
Speaker 4: He catches a regular small game and she's hands on

571
00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:57,480
Speaker 4: her cheeks and mouth over.

572
00:30:57,560 --> 00:31:00,800
Speaker 2: Oh my god, she turns in the hug. All right.

573
00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:03,800
Speaker 1: I don't know, Jack, just because you've lost your capacity

574
00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:05,920
Speaker 1: for joy doesn't mean you should punish the rest of us.

575
00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:08,840
Speaker 4: Maybe glitter freckles would cheer me up to Maybe it

576
00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:10,360
Speaker 4: kind of a little sparkle in my life.

577
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:12,160
Speaker 2: You can't get them, they're so that's true.

578
00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:14,560
Speaker 4: I'll wait till they come back into stock, or I'll

579
00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:17,960
Speaker 4: get some underground dark web version somewhere.

580
00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:22,240
Speaker 2: Made with lead poisoning. Yeah, Thiland, Well we got more

581
00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:23,120
Speaker 2: on the way. Stay here.

582
00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:29,120
Speaker 5: One of the biggest French fry factories in North America

583
00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:32,360
Speaker 5: is closing because Americans are eating fewer French fries.

584
00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:35,640
Speaker 2: People are eating fewer French.

585
00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:38,280
Speaker 7: Fries than every Uber East driver was like, speak for yourself.

586
00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:45,400
Speaker 2: I get it. I should. It's a real kryptonite food

587
00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:45,680
Speaker 2: for me.

588
00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:51,000
Speaker 4: I should never eat another French fry. I should never

589
00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:54,320
Speaker 4: have another milkshake ever in my life. I should never

590
00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:56,880
Speaker 4: eat another donut in my life. I should swear off

591
00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:58,600
Speaker 4: those three things right there.

592
00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:02,600
Speaker 2: In my life. Do it? I can't.

593
00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:06,400
Speaker 4: Have you seen the trailer for the new Bob Dylan

594
00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:07,760
Speaker 4: movie A Complete Unknown?

595
00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:09,120
Speaker 2: I have not.

596
00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:14,640
Speaker 4: Timothy shallow May as Bob Dylan. It's nineteen sixty five

597
00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:18,720
Speaker 4: Bob Dylan right right when he's you know, launching and everything.

598
00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:20,320
Speaker 2: Like that looks looks good.

599
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:24,600
Speaker 4: God, admit, I like Bob Dylan too much to be

600
00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:25,800
Speaker 4: able to handle a biopic.

601
00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:26,320
Speaker 2: It's weird.

602
00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:29,840
Speaker 4: I don't I don't feel like this about other artists

603
00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:32,040
Speaker 4: when they do this, but I feel like I just

604
00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:34,160
Speaker 4: I don't want you to.

605
00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:34,600
Speaker 2: Do it wrong.

606
00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:37,440
Speaker 4: I'm worried you're not going to handle something that I

607
00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:39,480
Speaker 4: hold in such high regard correctly.

608
00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:42,960
Speaker 2: It's weird. I don't usually have that feeling well.

609
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,520
Speaker 1: And if you're really into something, you have no need

610
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:47,200
Speaker 1: for a biopic, No, you do not.

611
00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:50,480
Speaker 2: All this saw the reality of it true, but like, well,

612
00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:51,160
Speaker 2: I disagree.

613
00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:53,960
Speaker 4: I guess like war movies, I know exactly what happened,

614
00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:57,640
Speaker 4: but to see it portrayed, it would have looked like

615
00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:01,239
Speaker 4: if you were there. Oh yeah, and I'm hoping they

616
00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:04,440
Speaker 4: can be okay, what was it like for him to be,

617
00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:06,920
Speaker 4: you know, twenty eight years old in the coffee shop,

618
00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:08,320
Speaker 4: brand new.

619
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:09,200
Speaker 2: Blah blah blah.

620
00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:12,720
Speaker 4: But yeah, don't overdo it, don't make it too schmaltzy

621
00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:13,920
Speaker 4: or dumb it down.

622
00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:16,920
Speaker 2: I can't handle that. Well, good luck with that. That'll

623
00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:19,160
Speaker 2: make me angry. Okay, you think, yeah, what did the.

624
00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:21,520
Speaker 1: Folk scene actually look and sound like in New York

625
00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:22,680
Speaker 1: City in nineteen sixty five?

626
00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:25,880
Speaker 2: You're you're right, I'm curious about that. This is dumb.

627
00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:32,160
Speaker 4: Governor of California, Gavin Newsom signed in the law banning

628
00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:35,040
Speaker 4: all plastic shopping bags of grocery stores. It's not officially

629
00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:37,240
Speaker 4: a law, and I noticed they'd already started to switch

630
00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:40,200
Speaker 4: over at my grocery stores. Now I get completely useless

631
00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:42,600
Speaker 4: paper bags that will immediately go into the trash because

632
00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:43,760
Speaker 4: I can't use them for anything else.

633
00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:46,160
Speaker 2: Really, and uh, there you go.

634
00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:48,480
Speaker 1: I'm trying to come up with the right act of

635
00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:53,280
Speaker 1: civil disobedience to defy this. A mink shopping bag or

636
00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:56,720
Speaker 1: something made out of the good guts of pandas or

637
00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:58,960
Speaker 1: I don't know what it would be that would be

638
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:03,800
Speaker 1: the most possible offensive. Maybe just Gavin big bags, as say,

639
00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:05,280
Speaker 1: Gavin dow some sucks on the signs.

640
00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:08,080
Speaker 4: One of my favorite libertarians tweeted out to that story.

641
00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:10,600
Speaker 4: This is the epitome of a policy that sounds great

642
00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:13,640
Speaker 4: to a small group of activists and looks perfect on

643
00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:17,760
Speaker 4: a protest sign and yet it accomplishes effectively nothing except

644
00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:19,759
Speaker 4: to make people's day to day lives a little more

645
00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:22,640
Speaker 4: annoying performance art that is exactly right.

646
00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:27,120
Speaker 2: And increases their cynicism appropriately. You're right, You're.

647
00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:29,080
Speaker 4: Right for those because most of us see through it.

648
00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:32,359
Speaker 4: We realize it's pointless. And all you've done is make

649
00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:35,680
Speaker 4: my life a little more annoying. Not greatly more annoying,

650
00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:37,799
Speaker 4: but a little more annoying for no good reason other

651
00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:40,560
Speaker 4: than to a certain crowd.

652
00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:45,000
Speaker 2: You made them feel better, over accomplished trying to do this,

653
00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:48,040
Speaker 2: and you keep screwing it up. But that doesn't stop

654
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:49,200
Speaker 2: you from trying again.

655
00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:52,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, for the second time today, I say. One of

656
00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:54,000
Speaker 4: the advantages of being old is I can remember when

657
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:58,560
Speaker 4: they banned plastic bags and went all paper, or when

658
00:34:58,560 --> 00:34:59,879
Speaker 4: they banned paper and went all plucks.

659
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:02,840
Speaker 2: I remember that very well. I was probably in my twenties.

660
00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:05,120
Speaker 2: Save the trades, Save the trades.

661
00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:10,160
Speaker 4: Okay, okay, fine, Now I'll start purchasing plastic bags so

662
00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:12,160
Speaker 4: that I have something to line my trash stands and

663
00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:13,799
Speaker 4: pick up my dog poop as a post to using

664
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:14,440
Speaker 4: the ones from.

665
00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:18,400
Speaker 2: The grocery store. No, that's banned now, and the handle

666
00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:19,919
Speaker 2: breaks off your paper bag all the time.

667
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:22,080
Speaker 4: I guess I'm supposed to show up with my bag

668
00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:23,560
Speaker 4: that I carry my trunk, but I'm never going to
