Speaker 1 (00:00):
Okay, it's everywhere now, I mean the collapse, the utter
implosion of the entire what used to be called mainstream media.
Elon Musk is now rightly calling it the legacy media,
the old media, now the status quote, decrepit, old guard
media ratings have createred tanking everywhere. Apparently now a lot
(00:26):
of reaction. Joe Biden met with Hitler, Mika Brzhinsky, Joe
Scarborough met with Hitler, and now everyone's saying, wow, we
never meant it, We never meant it. We were just
saying that to scare our viewers. Well, listen now to
Elon Musk. This is what he wrote on x Yes,
(00:47):
the legacy formerly mainstream media just literally lied relentlessly and
that's why now they're in serious crisis. By the way,
this is from Bostonians against Mayor Wu and this this statistic.
All of you please listen to this, because most of
you are on the road, you're driving, you're calling in
(01:10):
to the Coonerman or listening. Listen to this. In twenty
twenty three, Massachusetts gave illegal draw illegals driver's licenses. Since then,
car insurance rates have soared thirty percent. Thirty percent your
(01:32):
car insurance, my car insurance. Everybody's car insurance up thirty percent.
And Governor Morraheely and Michelle Wu, the mayor of Boston,
you want to resist and block Trump's deportation of illegals.
Are you crazy? And by the way, this thirty percent
(01:57):
increase in car insurance, that's in New York, dot's in Illinois,
dot's in Arizona, dot's in California. In fact, I hear
it's actually even higher. And some of those border states
like Arizona and California. And you, Simon, Katie Hobbs now
want to block Trump's deportation as well. We you, we you,
(02:20):
They're crazy, They're nuts. Dan in New Hampshire, thanks for
holding Dan and welcome.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
Yes, Jeff and Michelle is absolutely right.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
Katie Hobbs is a perfect example of rigg corrupt elections.
I can't believe nobody talked about this in New Hampshire. Okay,
they added, already to a Republican majority, twenty one seat
state's repstat seats in the House, two state reps state
Senate seats in the House as well, and they also
(02:57):
added the governor by name Oldley and something wins. Absolutely
not it's rigged elections. Okay, it goes back to the
absentee voting, which they're calling the envelopes. Okay, affidavits they're not.
Then what is an affidavid yet? An affidavit is a
written declaration made under OHS before a notary or a
(03:20):
public officer or official like a clerk, and you have
to it's a swarm. They got to notarize it. That
makes them accountable for the fraud. So that's when they
took off. It was Democrats in nineteen seventy nine that
took that off. They took off the notarized affidavit, making
nobody accountable. And on top of it, Governor Tanudu before
(03:43):
the November third, twenty twenty election okay, signed House Build
twelve sixty six, adding five more groups of people to
absentee voting.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Turning it into mail in.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
Voting is what it is now. And it's unbelievable. The
numbers are through the group. We used to get one
to four devoting, it's skyrocketed well over thirty two. That's
how they're rigging the election.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
Oh, you're dead on Dan, you're dead on look and
you laid it out I think very well. In the
opening part of your your call. So you've got Kelly
Aot and I'm not a big fan of hers, you
know that, Dan, But I'm just stating the facts. Kelly
Aot beats her Democratic opponent, wins the governorship. Republicans not
only control the entire state House the state legislature, they
(04:30):
gain almost two dozen seats, So Republicans now dominate the
state legislature. They win the governor's race, but Trump lost
to Kamala Harris. That does that make any sense to
anybody where by the way, across the entire country, Trump
(04:50):
outperformed Republicans down ballot, and it was because of him
that he dragged people like Marino over the finish line
in Ohio and some of these other states. They're trying
to steal it from McCormick in Pennsylvania, but it looks
now like the Pennsylvania State Supreme Court has stepped in
and said, no, you got to stop counting illegal ballots.
(05:12):
So it looks like McCormick is going to prevail in
that recount over Casey Well. Who put McCormick over the
finish line. It was Trump, So Trump is now putting
everybody over the finish line. But suddenly in New Hampshire,
Republicans dominate the state races, they win the governorship, and
he loses to Kamala Harris. I don't believe it. I
(05:36):
don't believe it. And the dirty secret about New Hampshire,
just like the dirty secret about Arizona, is that they
have election systems that are just as corrupt as here
in Massachusetts. If anything, I can't believe I'm saying this.
It may even be more corrupt. They stole it from
(05:58):
Trump in New Hampshire. They stole it from Carrie Lake
in Arizona. No way, is anybody gonna tell me that
Trump wins Arizona and Kay Carrie Lake loses to that
Marxist fraud Gallego. No way, no way, absolutely, no way,
no way. I don't believe it. So you're right, Katie
(06:22):
Hobbs has rigged the elections in Arizona. And now this
nutjob is going to try to block and stop Trump's deportations.
Good luck, good luck. Six one seven two six six
sixty eight sixty eight. And you want to know why
the liberal media is failing what used to be called
the quote unquote mainstream media. Nothing mainstream about them. They
(06:47):
become elitist democratic hacks, as one Eric put it on Messenger,
basically democratic porn. That's all they're good for now, becoming
mouthpieces and shills for the Democratic Party, pushing some of
the most outlandish, ridiculous lies and hoaxes, and now they've
lost all credibility and with it their ratings. My question
(07:11):
to you is this the end of the liberal media?
I'm just curious, how do you feel about it? And
there's a lot of talk of Elon Musk buying MSNBC. Comcast,
the parent company that owns them, says they're a yoke
around their neck. The ratings have tanked, revenue is drawing up.
(07:35):
They have been catastrophically wrong on Trump, on the election,
on so many issues, and now they beg MSNBC has
become toxic and radioactive, and Comcast now wants to unload,
and people are urging Elon buy MSNBC, turn it around
like you did X and make it the best cable
(07:57):
news network in the country. Should Elon buy MSNBC? And
who would you like to see on MSNBC once he
fires everybody and starts hiring real journalists. I can tell
you right now, I'd love to see Tucker Carlson have
his own show, like just right there. Bring back Tucker,
(08:21):
James O'Keeffe, who does these incredible undercover investigative reportage. Bring
James O'Keeffe on board. I mean, I could go on
and on, but there are a lot of people who
were truthtellers that I've been forced out of the media
that I think Elon should bring back and give them
(08:43):
a show or a platform on an Elon Musk run MSNBC.
Open question to the audience, let's throw this log on
the fire. Should Elon buy MSNBC and who would you
like to see on this new and improved MSNBC. Caroline
(09:05):
in New Hampshire, Thanks for holding Caroline, and welcome Caroline.
Did we lose her? Okay? Chris in the Great State
of Missouri, Thanks for holding Chris, and welcome.
Speaker 4 (09:24):
Jeff.
Speaker 5 (09:25):
Controversy between Trump meeting with the media, I see no
difference between Trump meeting with the media and meeting with
any other enemy camp and he's going to be talking
to North Korea, He's going to be talking to the
communist charity. So it's okay Trump met with before it collapsed.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
So you're saying, Chris, hey, you got to meet with
your enemies. The media is the enemy, just like he
meets with Russia, China, North Korea, the Taliban. Hey is
just part of his job now, right.
Speaker 5 (10:03):
Chris, absolutely, probably fine people over there, Chris.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
I'm just curious, are you in any way surprised or
shocked that the ratings have just collapsed? I mean it's
something we've almost never seen in television or in media
history before. I mean, they take dips, you know, ratings declined,
they go down, but this is the bottom has just
(10:34):
come out. CNN has almost no ratings. It's going to
be a bloodbath in about a couple of a couple
of weeks. They're going to fire everybody, most of the
on air talent producers. We're talking a huge, huge blood
letting at CNN, MSNBC. Their ratings have now dropped forty fifty,
(10:56):
sixty seventy percent. They're in complete, full, comple free fall.
LA Times, the entire editorial board fired, Washington Post, most
of the editorial board fired. New York Times hemorrhaging subscribers,
Washington Post, hemorrhaging subscribers. Boston Globe. I don't even know
(11:17):
who reads it anymore, but that paper now their subscribers
are dwindling. You're seeing a complete collapse across the entire
spectrum for the liberal media. Have their lies caught up
to them. Chris.
Speaker 5 (11:33):
I think what we're seeing, I hope, is an end
to this cold civil war we've been in the past
several years.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
In other words, Trump's victory doesn't just mean a political victory,
but in a sense of culture war victory. Correct. Absolutely interesting, interesting, Chris,
thank you very much for that call, Caroline. I think
we got her back in New Hampshire. Thanks for holding Caroline,
and welcome.
Speaker 6 (12:03):
Thank you. I'm sorry I got cut out for a minute.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Excuse me.
Speaker 6 (12:07):
I just wanted to say I don't think it is
I like Elan Musk, but I don't think that it's
a good idea that he purchases any media. I think
that we have enough billionaires owning all of the media.
In fact, there's like fifteen billionaires that own America's news media.
Then it goes down to the different corporations of who
(12:28):
owns the media. You've got National Amusements, Summer Redstone, he's
the owner, he owns everything. I went through this on
another call. But if you look online and look at
who owns the media. You will find that the majority
of that ninety percent, and now George Sorows, for example,
is buying the radio stations. So there's a lot of
(12:49):
power in the hands of the few. So you go
on view. Who's telling those ladies to say those things?
Who's writing their paychecks? That's the questions that we have
to answer. Who is really responsible for Joy Behar you
know that show, by the way, I remember when that started.
That started really right after two thousand and one, and
(13:11):
that was an equal opinion show, so there were different women.
Barbara Wah Wah was on that show at the time,
and then there was They had a conservative side, a
liberal side, they had media, and it was the view
and it was based on everybody's different view. Now it's
just one side. But that's very powerful to all these
(13:31):
people and children that watch that show because they say, yeah, yeah,
that's how it is, and they don't hear the opposite side.
That's not journalism, that's opinionated TV. So now we have
all these different companies that own everything, publishing companies, those
are the books that are coming out, Movie State you
(13:52):
know again, excuse me, Viacom TV channels. Okay, you've got
news channels, you've got Fox on the right suppose releast
sometimes not a right view. It depends on your opinion.
But again, this is all opinionated TV. But it's also
stuff that's being used to sort of build the mind
of the young and to what they want it to be.
(14:15):
And they're very tricky and they do that even these
movies and music that comes out the wording of the music.
Look at the sixties and how powerful that was to
you know, anti war at which some people believe was
a CIA operation, believe it or not. But so you've
got all this power in the hands of the few,
don't you think, just like Mabel used to be but
(14:37):
that was broken up or Standard Oil was broken up.
Isn't it about time that we start to consider the
fact that there's too much power in the hands of
the few and we should start breaking these companies up.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
You know, yes, I mean the short answer to your
question Caroline is yes, I think there's way too much
concentration of corporate power, economic power, and I think they
should be broken up, no question about it. As for
the media, I agree with you. I don't like big media.
I've always been against big media. That's why I'm a
big supporter of the Boston Broadside, because it's a locally
(15:13):
it's owned by Ronnie Brennan. Believe me, he's an no
rich man. I'll tell you this. It's on a shoestring budget.
It's community journalism, it's real journalism, and it's what America
used to be. America used to be full of local newspapers,
locally owned by people in the community who were truly
(15:34):
committed to free speech, free expression, and an open balanced debate.
Their journalism was very good, and their opinion section was
very fair. It was always point counterpoint on every issue.
So the whole community felt represented and they was highly respected.
And then things began to change over the decades, and
(15:57):
media became co opted. It became very corporate, and then
it became very pro Wall Street, very pro globalist, and
now it's pure political propaganda. It really is, whether it's
mostly Democrat propaganda or if you're at Fox News, Rhino propaganda.
And I think that's a major problem. Now. Look, the
(16:18):
only reason why I like Elon buying MSNBC is you're right,
I don't like you. He's a multi billionaire. I don't
like multi billionaires. Snatching up more power, but at least
Elon is committed in principle to freedom of speech. Like
I gotta be honest, Caroline. Look, I was on X
(16:39):
before Elon. I'm on X after Elon when he bought it.
It's a much freer social media platform now under Elon.
There are many things that I said during this election
that I was deliberately either banned, canceled, or shadow banned
from saying four years ago when I was talking about
(17:01):
voter fraud, they censored me under Jack Dorsey when he
owned Twitter when I talked about voter fraud. Elon didn't
or his people didn't do anything. So I'm just saying
that when it came to voter fraud, election integrity, the
Biden crime family, the Hunter Biden laptop, the Russia collusion hoax,
(17:23):
under Elon Musk's X, it's much freer, much more objective,
much more committed to the truth than anything we saw
before with Elon. Now, if he brings that same mindset
to say MSNBC, and if he can prevent the temptation
from trying to run it and control it, but just
(17:44):
let it be like X, a real platform, a real
outlet for real journalism and real open on his debate
and reporting. I'm telling you right now, he's going to
destroy the entire media establishment and that includes Fox. I mean,
it really is. It's his for the taking. I want
to ask the audience again because it's a very real possibility.
(18:06):
Elon is being put under a lot of pressure to
do it. Comcast is now told everybody they want to
unload ms DNC as I like to call it, or
bs DNC as it's also now commonly referred to. But Comcast,
the parent company, says, look, MSNBC ratings are in the tank,
(18:30):
They've been completely discredited, they have become toxic, they have
no revenue coming in or very little revenue coming in,
and they just they want to sell it. They want
to auction it off, spin it off. And people are
saying to Elon, this could be the opportunity of a lifetime.
So let me ask you again. It is the Kooner
country Pole Question of the Day sponsored by Marios Marios
(18:56):
Quality roofing, siding and windows. Should Elon Musk buy ms NBC?
Should Elon per Elon forgive me purchase MSNBC? Obviously fire
all of those left wing radical hacks get rid of
every single show, every single one of those losers on air,
(19:19):
all of those left wing producers and writers, and bring
in real journalists and essentially, due to MSNBC what he
has done to X or formerly Twitter, transform it, improve it,
revamp it, and make it something completely different, in this
(19:40):
case a real media outlet as b No. You can
vote on our web page wrko dot com slash cooner.
Kuhn is a national Er wrko dot com slash Coooner.
You can also vote via x my handle there at
(20:02):
the Kooner Report all one word kuh and is in
national Er. And let's have a little bit of fun.
Who would you like to see on this new MSNBC
What on air?
Speaker 6 (20:15):
Talent?
Speaker 1 (20:15):
What journalist? What former hosts that, let's say like Tucker Carlson.
I'd love to see Tucker get his own eight o'clock
prime Time. I'd have him anchor prime Time at eight o'clock. Personally,
if I was Elon and I bought MSNBC, I mentioned
James o'keef. There are many others that I would say
they deserve to have their own platform or their own
(20:39):
show on a new MSNBC six one seven two six
six sixty eight sixty eight lines are blazing. Mike in
New York. Thanks for holding Mike, and welcome Hi Jeff,
Hi Mike.
Speaker 6 (20:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (20:55):
I was going to say about MSNBC is I don't
think Elon should buy it. I think that we we
we need the crazy media still out there. I think
part of the crazy media is why Trump got elected.
Speaker 3 (21:10):
Oh and you.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
In other words, there there are their craziness, their lunacy
is one of our best assets and allies.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
Correct, yes, and you have to know what your enemy
is thinking. That's why it's important for MSNBC and FEEL
those other crazy channels to stay broadcast, to stay on so.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
You wouldn't like to see you on by it then right.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
No, we have enough. There's enough media out there. My
only issue was brainwashing the children. We should really go
after universities and the colleges that have brainwashed. As far
as the media, they're brave, they they're brave. Brainwashing these
kids to think a certain way. I think that's where
the concentration should be on. Let these crazy people. I
get I'm entertained by the view, I'm entertained by ms
(21:56):
BC to be honest with you, and yet I love
you in a non sexual way.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
Oh, thank you, Mike. God bless you, my friend. I
appreciate it. Mike. God bless you again, and thank you
for that call. Six one seven two six six sixty
eight sixty eight is the number, you know. Look, I
just to me, this is the part that I find
disgusting about what you're seeing universities. But also again in
(22:22):
the media, we talked about this all show or almost
all show yesterday, so as you know, Joe Biden, I'm
not going to get into it too much, but just
to show you how they lie and how they brazenly,
blatantly lie. So you have Joe Biden who now has
given the green light to Ukraine to launch long range
(22:44):
US missiles deep inside Russia. Okay, the ATACMS sonar supersonic
guided missile system one of our most advanced and by
the way Ukrainians can operate. We operated because it's that sophisticated,
that modern, that advanced. So essentially now we are firing
(23:07):
missiles deep into Russia. And the media yesterday right away, Oh,
this is not an escalation. No, no, there's nothing reckless
or irresponsible. No, this is all defensive on the part
of Biden and Zolensky and the Ukrainians. Nothing to see here,
(23:28):
nothing to worry about, shazam. As I predicted yesterday, Vladimir
Putin last night signed and presidential order now saying that
Russia will launch a nuclear strike in retaliation to any
long range missile attacks. And what happened? Just what is it?
(23:52):
It was reported now four hours ago Ukraine launched not one,
not two, six, six US long range missile strikes into Russia.
So the media saying, oh, they'll never fire a missile,
it's just for deterrence. They just fired six. And Putin
(24:14):
has now signed in executive order lowering the threshold for
Russia to use tactical nuclear weapons. So as exactly as
we predicted, that madman, that lunatic in the White House,
who I want you, all of you to think about,
this is so mentally gone that they denied him the
(24:36):
Democratic presidential nomination. They said he wasn't mentally fit to
be the Democrats presidential nominee. But he's mentally fit enough
to escalate a potential World War three against Russia. Now,
the media kept saying, nothing's gonna happen, nothing's gonna happen. Well,
here you go. Eight hours later, Ukraine just fired six
(25:00):
of our long range missiles into Russia, and now Russian
leader Strongman Putin has now signed an order saying I
give the military permission to launch a nuclear strike if
they deem any of these US long range missiles to
be a serious threat to our national security. We're on
a collision course towards World War three. That's why nobody
(25:25):
believes this stinking media anymore, because all they do is lie, lie, lie,
cover up, cover up, cover up. They're just a propaganda
mouthpiece for the Biden regime. Agree, disagree six one seven
two six six sixty eight sixty eight. Don in New Hampshire,
(25:48):
Thanks for holding Don, and welcome.
Speaker 4 (25:51):
Good morning, Jeff. This is a little off your topic
right now, but in the interest of truth, I do
want to set the record straight for what that gentleman
was saying about voting in New Hampshire, if I may
be permitted, is that?
Speaker 6 (26:06):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (26:07):
Yes, please go ahead on okay.
Speaker 4 (26:08):
I am an election moderator in a town in New
Hampshire and I can tell you.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
Sorry, so I don't mean to cut you off. You
mean moderator or monitor, Okay, moderator.
Speaker 4 (26:18):
What that means is I am responsible for operating the
polling place.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
Okay, I got you, I got you. Go ahead on lord, okay,
go ahead.
Speaker 4 (26:27):
Oh and I have to tell you my heart is
raising right now over this. I have to tell you
that if the whole country did elections the way New
Hampshire did, we would have great air, accurate elections. We
account for every single ballot that is cast. There are
no mail out ballots, and absentee ballots are meticulously checked
(26:52):
for accuracy and validity. And not only that, I have
to account for every single ballot that both goes into
and leaves my polling place.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
So it's like.
Speaker 4 (27:05):
Two thousand something ballots. And we test our machine in advance.
It is not connected to the internet, it has no bluetooth,
and once we test it with pre mark ballots at
City Hall a week before the election, it is sealed
with a seal and a number on it, so you
(27:25):
cannot take that, you can't tamper with the machine. And
after all that gets done, we reconcile the reports. And
I was at City Hall to almost two thirty in
the morning doing that. So what that gentleman said is
not accurate, okay. And they do tend to vote for
(27:45):
the president more democratic in New Hampshire than they do
the local officials. So in a nutshell, that's the truth.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
Well, Dawn, look, I'm sure you do your job extremely well.
I'm sure you do with a lot of integrity. There's
no question about that. Don I'm not so much talking
about Dan's call from New Hampshire. What I can tell
you with absolute certainty, and this is the big loophole
in the New Hampshire election system, and I'm sure you're
aware of it, is all of the people that show
(28:20):
up on election day who sign that ridiculous piece of
paper that says they're planning to live in New Hampshire
or they're about to be a resident of New Hampshire,
and then they're allowed to be given a ballot and
they vote. And we know for a fact that that
has been abused, that there's no debate on that. You
have residents from Massachusetts who vote here and then go
(28:43):
up to New Hampshire and almost ninety nine point nine
percent vote for the Democrat. So there's double dipping, there's
double voting. That's a clear abuse of the election system.
It's fraud and furthermore, illegals there every election you've got pictures,
you've got photos, you've got journalistic evidence. They bring in
(29:05):
bus load after bus load after bus load. They have
them stay at a motel the night before. Then they
all show up at the voting polls, they signed that
ridiculous piece of paper and they all vote one hundred
percent Democratic. And Manchester, by the way, is the biggest
offender in this and that's where the Democrats always get
(29:27):
the votes to pull it out. At a presidential race.
They don't vote for governor, they don't vote down ballot.
They just vote for Kamala Harris or Joe Biden or Hillary.
So the combination of illegal aliens voting and the combination
of people coming from Massachusetts in particular and voting twice
(29:48):
is rampant in New Hampshire. And until you fix that,
you have a dirty election system. I'm sure everything else
you've told me is one hundred percent accurate, and I'm
sure you do you're well with all, you do your
job very well and with a lot of integrity. But
the fact of the matter is, like in Massachusetts, and frankly,
like in many states, the election system is it's not
(30:14):
first world. The election system is dirty. It's corrupt and
fraud is rampant. What say you?
Speaker 4 (30:22):
It cannot prove you wrong, Jeff, I can only speak
from my ward. Obviously, I would love to know the
answer to that question. But you do have to have
a photo ID if you do an AFFI David ballot.
It's a cumbersome process an election day and I don't
know how you could process that many people. So I
don't know. I'm not saying you're wrong, Jeff, I really
(30:43):
aren't the thing about the college students voting. If you
have a residence in two places, you could elect to
vote in New Hampshire, but you're committing a felony if
you vote in the other place. And of course I
know that doesn't mean anything to an illegal. So you
know we can't look.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
No, no, I hear you. Don really I hear you, And look,
you should be proud of New Hampshire because I'm telling
you New Hampshire is a phenomenal state. I really, I'm
telling you, I love New Hampshire. You have no idea,
you know, God is my witness. How many times Grace
and I have talked about either moving to New Hampshire
or at a minimum getting a sec like a cottage.
Ashton in particular, has fallen in love with New Hampshire.
(31:23):
He likes to go outdoors, he likes to go fishing,
he loves the people in New Hampshire, salt of the earth.
So I really understand and know where you're coming from. Don,
look to me, this is the problem we should have,
and if we have this, there would be no question.
Same day voting across the entire country election, to a
(31:44):
few exceptions for the military who serve overseas, people who
are really unable to get to the polls they're in
wheelchairs or you know whatever. Fine, But for the most part, Don,
same day voting, no voting machines whatsoever, paper ballots and
then when you do you do a handcount. Now that's
(32:05):
how they do it in France, in Germany, in Australia,
in New Zealand, in Finland, in countries all over the world.
And amazingly, Don, there is overwhelming trust in the elections.
There's hardly any voter fraud whatsoever. And the amazing thing,
(32:27):
Don is everybody knows the winner by midnight. It's incredible,
four five six hours tops, and they can tell us
who the winner is.
Speaker 2 (32:37):
Don.
Speaker 1 (32:38):
They're still counting in Pennsylvania. I swear to you they've
got a recount now for that Pennsylvania Senate race. And
what's a legal ballot, what's an illegal ballot, what's an
acceptable ballot, what's not an acceptable ballot? Because it's all
these absentee ballots. So what I'm just saying, Don, is
(32:58):
you know why why did we change it? It worked,
It was the election system we had for most of
our history. Let's return to it. Does this seem unreasonable
to you, Don.
Speaker 4 (33:10):
I'm agreeing with what you're saying, Jeff, And I have
to say the reason I got into this. I'm living
in New Hampshire almost four years now, and after that
last election, I wanted to get involved in the process
so I could look people in the eye and say
your vote was counted accurately, and my staff and my
polling place. I have no problem getting volunteers. They care,
They do this one thousand percent. So my plea to
(33:33):
everyone listening that lives in New Hampshire get involved with
this process. The more honest people are involved, the less
it's possible for people to cheat.
Speaker 1 (33:41):
God bless you, don honestly, God bless you, and thank
you very much. For that call, James. All, I love
this state. My son was born in this state. We
adopted him the Minnesota, the land of a was it
ten thousand Lakes? James in minnes Soda. Thank you for
(34:02):
calling and welcome.
Speaker 7 (34:06):
After the election, I wanted if I'd have had media,
I'd run a headline kamaa aborted exclamation mark.
Speaker 1 (34:17):
So James, I take it, my friend. You're not a
big fan of the so called mainstream media.
Speaker 7 (34:23):
Not too much, not too much. But I am a
big fan of Elon buying the station or why would
he buy one, Jeff when he could just build it
from the ground up.
Speaker 1 (34:36):
Oh that's a good point. I mean, James, look what
you get the signal, right, you get the channel, Like
there is a certain infrastructure there that you don't have
to pay for. You know, you get all the studios,
you get all the equipment. So I can just tell you,
as someone who's been in the media, for example, it
is easier to buy a newspaper than to start up
(34:57):
a newspaper. I mean, it just is. You know, the
printing presses are there for you, the actual building is
there for you, Like, all of the infrastructure is there.
And if you have some good technical professionals. You don't
have to even hire them, so it is easier. That's why,
you know, people are saying, hey, if they're going to
put it up for sale, you know, basically, look, there's Newsmax,
(35:19):
there's Fox, there's CNN, and there's MSNBC. Now I know
there's News Nation, but hardly anybody watches them, so you
really have four, you know, big cable news networks. Fox,
as you know, is going increasingly rhino. Newsmax I think
is very good. It's just they don't invest a lot
(35:40):
of money into the shows. So the production level, I
mean this is you know, even Newsmax says this, the
production level is not as high as CNN or MSNBC
or Fox. So that's a disadvantage Newsmax has. CNN is
garbage and MSNBC is left wing garbage. And so people
(36:02):
are saying, hey, Elon, if you can buy one up
for a song where really they're going to give it
to you for pennies on the dollar. Because Comcast just
wants to unload this thing. People are saying, Elon, it's
easy money, you can easily afford it. You will make
it profitable if anybody will it'll be you. And if
(36:23):
you really want to start to reform the corrupt media,
who better than Elon Musk. Look what he's done to
social media by buying X, He's led a revolution in
free speech. They're saying he could do the same for
journalism if he was to buy MSNBC. Look, James, before
I let you answer, I'm a newspaper man at heart.
(36:44):
That's where I cut my teeth in journalism and in media.
And I believe in localism, I really do. I believe
in letting a thousand flowers bloom. I believe in local media,
local papers, local journalism. To me, that's the best journalism,
the most honest journalism. I don't like big media. I
(37:06):
don't like a few people or a few companies or
corporations controlling that much of our access to information. So
in theory, in theory, you know, I don't like billionaires
snatching up cable news networks. But we live in the
age that we live in. It's just it is what
(37:26):
it is. And if someone, if some billionaire is going
to own you know, say MSNBC, I'd rather it be Elon.
Final word to you, James, what say you?
Speaker 7 (37:37):
No?
Speaker 4 (37:37):
Absolutely?
Speaker 7 (37:38):
And you know what you could make it a rock
star station, you know, like with Tucker Megan Kelly. I'm
listening to her a lot now. She's really riding on
the conservative side now. And I'm sure there's others I
don't know about, but yeah, I think that him buying
that station would be fabulous.
Speaker 3 (37:57):
And you know.
Speaker 7 (37:58):
Fox, when Fox was conservative, they dominated, and I feel
sure that the same thing what happened with the station to.
Speaker 2 (38:06):
The Elon boat.
Speaker 1 (38:07):
Bingo, bingo. James, my beautiful son, Ashton, was born in Minnesota.
We adopted him in Minnesota. It is my favorite state
in the Union. I just want you to know that
that in Utah because we adopted our beautiful girl, Ava
from Utah. And I want you to know, James, I
love the New England Patriots, but they're my number two team.
(38:30):
My number one team the Minnesota Vikings. So and Ashton
is a big fan as well. He always wears the
Vikings uniform every Sunday. Daddy, Daddy, Daddy, we have to
watch the Vikings play. So James, please don't be a stranger.
I love taking calls from Minnesota. Some of the finest
(38:51):
people I've ever met are in Minnesota. God bless you,
James Salt of the Earth. I'm telling you
