Speaker 1 (00:00):
Rannie, that guy's full of bow vine peces. We don't
like you. Well, that was certainly uncalled for, but accurate.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
I don't know why you have to come in here
and you know, I come back, I'm fresh, I'm can
ready and rested and ready to go, and you have.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
To do that. I just think that's so unfair, so unfair.
I'm want to go. I want I'm gonna go.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Back to the media research for a moment. They report
this that since July, ABC, CBSNBC, as I said before,
have treated Harris to seventy eight percent positive coverage, while
during that same period they gave Trump eighty five percent
(00:51):
negative coverage. And that's based on explicit statements that they
can evaluate based on the content of those statements from
either reporters, anchors, or so called nonpartisan sources, you know,
like experts they bring on or actual voters they talk to.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
Here's what.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
I find encouraging. Now it may not sound encouraging, but
let me explain why the difference in coverage between the
two candidates this year is far greater than in twenty sixteen,
when both Trump and Hillary Clinton received mostly negative coverage
(01:39):
ninety one percent for Trump, seventy nine percent for Clinton.
It's even greater than in twenty twenty when Joe Biden
was treated to sixty six percent positive coverage ninety two
percent negative for Trump. Now they're A analysis shows that
(02:02):
since July, news coverage, again mainly from the networks, has
included two hundred and thirty hundred and thirty minutes of
negative stories about Trump and all the different allegations you know,
made against the president. And then on the conversely, the
networks have provided only minimal coverage of any controversies regarding
(02:24):
Kamala Harris, for example. How much news coverage have now
you're probably not the audience to asked this question of
because you're you're exceptional, your special special education. Right in
(02:45):
my computer just shut down? What's hang on a second?
Welcome back?
Speaker 3 (02:52):
Yeah, you know you missed these high quality Windows ninety
eight machines.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
That's what I get for h log in, log in,
see if it comes back up. Okay, here it comes
back up. Now where was I?
Speaker 1 (03:06):
Oh? So I was talking about the two hundred and
thirty minutes of negative stories.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
About Trump? What about the negative stories about Kamala Harris?
What have you heard about Kamala Harris, that would be negative.
Have you heard stories? Has anyone asked her questions about
her husband, you know, slapping that woman or you know,
(03:34):
impregnating the nanny?
Speaker 1 (03:37):
No? Why not? Well?
Speaker 2 (03:40):
I think it's old mission and co mission. You're not
going to ask the question because you can't ask the question.
You don't have the opportunity to go ask the question.
She's avoiding the media like the plague. So when you
do have an opportunity to ask a question, you're going
to ask about something that people actually care about. Right,
(04:02):
the economy? Immigration still the number two the economy. Inflation
and immigration still the top three issues, not even abortion,
which she holds an entire rally about. You know, I
found very weird. This is a footnote.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
Do you know I find Billy in Texas too? What
wasn't that rally in Texas too?
Speaker 2 (04:21):
He was in Houston and Beyonce the I don't have
the SoundBite in front of me, but if I recall correctly,
Beyonce says that she's there not as a celebrity, which
she is, but she's there as a mother in order
to protect a woman's right to kill their baby.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
And I makes perfect sense.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
I was again abortion is not one of my big issues,
but they become so unhinged about it that it just
it was like unbelievable. I'm here as a mother and
I want to make certain that my children know that
I should have had the choice to kill them if
(05:07):
I had wanted to.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
Maybe I'm a bit slow in this whole abortion debate
and a whatnot. And it's brought back to the states,
so each state gets to decide what they want to do.
So if you're in a state that does not allow
abortions and you want one, there's absolutely nothing stopping you
from going to a neighboring state or a state that
does allow them.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
And am I wrong? Yes, you are wrong.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
And here's why you're wrong, Okay, because you assume that
somebody has transportation, that they can buy an airplane ticket,
they can put gas in their car, or that they
can get on the light rail station here at Bellevue
and twenty five, and they can travel to California on
that light rail and get their abortion mother in California.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
I also heard.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
That Colorado is now being considered a sanctuary abortion state.
We're sanctuaries for everything, But did anyone ever stop to
think about Beyonce is talking about I'm here as a mother,
not as a celebrity. And I think most people that
(06:15):
were there were there because.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Beyonce was there and she is a celebrity.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Do you think that anybody in that crowd thought to themselves,
isn't it odd that you're there talking about you're there
as a mother so that you can support a woman's
right to kill their baby.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
I just found it confusing. I found it odd.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
But in fact, the Media Research Center found that thirty
one percent, almost a third of network news airtime has
been focused on negative stories regarding personal controversies just overall. Meanwhile,
five percent of airtime so overall thirty one percent negative
stories regarding personal controversies about Donald Trump. Five of air
(07:05):
time was dedicated to similar topics regarding Kamala Harris. The
two most covered issues, and this is where I think
the symbiotic relationship between the Democrat Party and the networks
the cabal is best seen. The two most covered issues
(07:30):
regarding Donald Trump had been the January sixth Capitol riots
and allegations leveled by Harrison and of course other Democrats too,
accusing Trump of being a fascist and a danger to democracy.
Now if the two most important issues, the three most
(07:50):
important issues that every poll, they can't ignore it because
the numbers are so overwhelming. Actually, more than three quarters
of Americans think that this country is on the wrong track. Okay,
so you just start with that. Hey, whatever we're doing
is that it ain't working, it's the wrong thing. We
(08:13):
need to be going a different direction.
Speaker 3 (08:15):
That's why she wants to turn the page.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
That's why she wants to turn the page. But she
doesn't want to make any changes from the pages that
she's been reading from for the past three and a half.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
Or four years. She ain't changing the book.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
She ain't changing the book. She may be going to
the next page in progressivism, in the next page toward
our marks, toward Marxism, but she's not going to change
the book. She's still singing from the same hymn. So
you've you've got You've got three quarters say we're on
the wrong track. And then within that seventy five percent,
(08:52):
most people say inflation in the economy and immigration of
their top three issues. And they're all interchangeable. So why
are they focused so much on January sixth and a
danger to democracy? Because that's all they've got they can't
offer you anything that is going to solve immigration illegal immigration,
(09:19):
or is going to solve the problems with the economy.
So if all they have is fascism and a danger
to democracy, there's where the media is going to focus
and that's what they're going to cover. That's what Kamala
Harris is going to keep his spouse and keep out
there spewing all the time, and that's what they're going
to keep covering. In fact, she's going to the Ellipse.
(09:42):
I think sometime this week. Maybe I don't know when
it is, but sometime this week, Kamala Harris is going
to the Ellipse. Why is she doing that? Because I
guarantemn toe you she'll talk about how this is this
is where the fascism was born. This is where the
Nazis gathered on January six and they almost destroyed American democracy.
(10:06):
And Donald Trump was the leader. He encouraged it, he
told him, because he told them to take their their
their torches and their pitchforks, and to go up there,
and to take their guns and their bazukahs and their grenades,
and to go up there and to kill Mike Pence,
and to go up there and to kill Capitol police officers.
And I'll bet you a dollar to a donut that
(10:28):
she talks about, you know, cops that died that day. Hmm,
don't recall that. She'll talk about all of the damage
that was done. Yeah, there was some damage done, but
it wasn't extensive. She'll she'll completely ignore Trump's admonition on
January four, two days before January sixth, that hey, we
(10:51):
have intel. You have intel that shows that there are
going to be some troublemakers here. There's some agents provocateur.
I think you ought to be ready with the National Guard.
We got, you know, more than willing. I'll authorize the
use of the National Guard. Hell's bells all authorized the
use of the of the United States Military if we
need to. Now that raises lots of issues about posse commatitis,
but nonetheless, he was willing to say, hey, listen, you
(11:13):
need security. It might be a bad day. And they
all ignored it. And I sincerely believe that they ignored
it because they wanted it to happen. And I believe
that there truly were agents provocateur that day that were
in there, whether ray Epps was one of them or not.
(11:35):
I'll leave that up to you. But they were there
to encourage the riots of all the people that had
the largest grievances, and that would be Allioc bar and
Alex Jones, none of whom participated in any of that.
(11:59):
And at the same time they were encouraging other people. No,
don't go that way, do not go that way. We're
protesting over here. We're gonna be on the northeast corner
parking lot. That is not us. Stay away from that.
But of course, when you have throngs of tens of
thousands of people, people get caught up in those throngs
and you can't move. You can as everybody is moving
(12:22):
to the east. You may be trying to go perpendicular
to the north, and you're going to as you go
to the north, you're gonna keep kept You're gonna keep
being pushed to the east as you're making your way
to the north side of that crowd. And depending on
where you start, you're gonna end up end up on
the steps steps of the Capitol. And most people who
(12:46):
end up on the steps of the Capitol are almost
it's almost irresistible to not walk up the steps of
the US Capitol and so now you're caught up in
the throng, You're caught up in the mall when you
had no intention whatsoever of doing that. So that shows
(13:08):
that there is this coalescence, this merger of the cabal
and the Harris campaign, the Democrat Party to call Trump
a fascist, to talk about the gathering of the Nazis
(13:29):
in Madison Square Garden, the same place where amazing Muhammad Ali.
Who else has been there? The Rolling Stones. I don't
Beatles ever played Madison Square Guard. I don't they have
played MSD or not. But you had the Democrat National
Convention there. I think at least twice in my lifetime
(13:49):
the Democrats have met there. And stop and think about that.
So you got Bill Clinton, Jimmy Carter, Walter Mondale, You've
had all these Democrat nominees at Madison Square Garden, and
not once, not one single time, has anything ever been
(14:11):
said about the fact that, oh, the Democrats were there.
But oh, we can't say anything about that because look
at all these people, Blacks, Jews, Arabs, Israelis. You had oh,
(14:31):
Puerto Weecans because they were trying to escape the trash.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
And I'll tell you about that in a minute too.
So you've got you've got all of those people there. Now,
how stupid does the American population have to be to
think that Donald Trump is a fascist because he held
his closing argument, if you will, in Madison Square Guard
(15:00):
where everybody are the rolling stones fascists? Are they a
bunch of Nazis? Is Muhammad Ali? As much as I
may have disagreed with Muhammad Ali's politics? Was he a Nazi?
Was he a fascist? Were all the Jews that showed
up Orthodox and otherwise that showed up Jews for Trump?
(15:21):
Were What about the Arabs for Trump? Were they Nazis?
And the Jews and the Arabs were together in the
same arena. You had every conceivable identity politics that Democrats
want us to focus on in that arena. And you
(15:41):
had Bobby Kennedy Junior, who is not exactly mister conservative.
You can't say that RFK Jr. Is William F. Buckley
or Ronald Reagan. But nonetheless there's some commonalty. And it
shows that people that have completely different political viewpoints on
(16:03):
some subjects may have similar views on other subjects, and
they can all appear and speak that they Ramaswami Halsey
Gabbard once once actually campaigned for Bernie Sanders to seeing
the light and you and you're calling all of them Nazis.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
Go back to what I said.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
At the very beginning about the poll numb and Trump
getting above that. All we have to do is not
screw up over the next seven days. I gotta tell you,
mother truckers laugh right up there with Kamala's cackle. Oie,
(16:54):
we're gonna get a fight going between those two. Good,
We'll get a fight going there. So let's go back
to the MSG for just a moment. So according to
the media, everything that I heard while I was gone
was that that rally at Madison Square Garden was racist, fascist,
anti Semitic. It was just horrible.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
But real quick, I got a slight factoid that has
to deal with the bumper music that I played here
live in the other a Portunately, you won't be able
to hear on the podcast, but.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
I'll bring it off. We call Billy Joel. Wasn't it was?
It was a piano man.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
Piano man, Yeah, okay, yeah, who's Jewish?
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Huh uh huh.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
Who also happens to hold the record for the most
lifetime performances at Madison Square Garden Square Garden.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
Well, and that fits in pretty well with the points
that I wanted with what I want to make here.
So if the proof of it being a Nazi rally
is a nineteen thirty nine rally, or there were other
things that maybe slipped under the you know, kind of
(18:12):
the the top line of the news media.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
Well, let's see.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
We had Tucker Carlson who hosted a World War Two
historian that's a revisionist historian on his podcast. I didn't
listen to all of it. I read part of the transcript.
I thought it was nuts, totally nuts. Elon Musk. Now,
(18:36):
why is Elon Musk a Nazi? Because he allows anti Submitic.
Speaker 3 (18:43):
You mean the African American Elon Musk.
Speaker 2 (18:46):
Yeah, that guy, that guy who allows people to exercise
free speech, which means they say anti Semitic things on
X which I have a problem with what people say,
but I don't have a problem with people saying it.
Or that the comedian who joked about Latinos having a
(19:06):
lot of children, which is kind of like Mormons and
Catholics having a lot of kids, kind of true, and
that Puerto Rico does have a lot of trash and
in fact, Puerto Rico does have a landfill problem. Puerto
Rico has a wastewater problem, a landfill problem. They've had
(19:29):
a lot of problems since Hurricane Maria. They've not been
able to fix them. We pump a lot of money
into Puerto Rico and we can't seem to fix any
of that. But none of those things. Even a comedian
that you might disagree with, you might kind of groan
what was that for?
Speaker 1 (19:50):
Or that I.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
Don't agree with every person that Tucker Carlson has on
his podcast. I don't agree with everything that I rea
see on X. I do think that Latinos have large families,
as do tend to Catholics, and Mormons tend to have
large families.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
Does that mean that.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
Every Latino family, every Catholic family, every Mormon family has
a large family. No, but it is a generalization. And
Puerto Rico does have a lot of trash, been there,
seen it, know of it. But then I want you
to ask yourself this question, one, are any of those
(20:34):
things racist, fascist, or even anti Semitic other than maybe
the actual things that people say, which they have a
right to say. And then I was thinking about, you know,
I mentioned Jimmy Carter, Walter Mondale, Bill Clinton. Jimmy Carter
was nominated to be president at MSG nineteen seventy six,
(20:59):
and then held a large rally there on October thirty,
a few days just prior to the nineteen eighty presidential election.
Now I know that Jimmy is in hospice. He's been
in hospice for like the past century. Jimmy Carter was,
If my family ever does this, I swear I'll kill him.
(21:21):
They hold poor Jimmy out in front of the cameras
his mouth agape out in some I don't know, family
backyard or something, and announced that Jimmy is ready to vote.
Leave him alone, preserve his dignity.
Speaker 3 (21:38):
Abnoestly questioned, this show is all about squirrels and whatnot.
But this just came to me. If Jimmy Carter had
billed out his ballot and dies before the election, does
it still count.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Yeah, it does. As long as they got it into
the system.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
It goes into the system. But it's not election day,
it's election seasons. I'm just we're in an election season.
I just want to make sure that I got all
that clear. So if if I drop off, you you've
already voted, right, I have not yet, but well you have.
We're going to this weekend. So yeah, So if I
drop off my ballot, say today, and I get into
(22:17):
a car accident and die tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
I get a new producer the next day. Lucky you.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
That's about your ballot. I'm thinking I get a new producer.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
But that still counts. Yes, I'm a dead person who voted.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
Yes, but you voted in the election season. Okay, yes,
your ballot hasn't been counted yet, but it will be counted.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
It'll be dead by the time it was counted. If
that's true, that that sucks to be you. Huh, yeah,
you you've already voted. You've already voted.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
Uh, let's see, let's think about well, let me let
me let me go back to uh Carter. Nobody mentions
that a few days before the nineteen eighty presidential election,
Jimmy Carter held a large rally in MSG almost the
(23:09):
seed Today's Tuesday, October twenty nine. That rally was what
on the twenty seventh. Okay, they are three days apart.
Does that make Does three days make the difference between
Nazis and a bunch of Yahoo Democrats, No, Tucker Carlson
(23:31):
Elon Musk, neither one have endorsed anti Semitism or Holocaust denial.
Tucker Carlson may have talked to someone who, in my opinion,
was a Holocaust denier, but so what now.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
I do.
Speaker 2 (23:48):
Disagree with how Tucker Carlson conducted the interview, but it's
his interview. He can ask the questions he wants to
and the comedians about Latinos having many children, that's not
false either, at least according to the US Census. And
the joke about Puerto Rico and trash, it's not it's
(24:13):
not racist. There actually is a genuine garbage crisis on
Puerto Rico. He didn't say that the Puerto Ricans were garbage,
that the island is garbage, and quite frankly, it is.
Do you know that the average amount of garbage produced
(24:36):
per person each day in the rest of the United
States is four point four pounds two kilograms. In Puerto Rico,
the average amount of garbage produced per person each day
is five point five six pounds or two point five
three kilograms. And you can do an easy Google or
dut Go or being served, but you can just do
(24:58):
any search for landfill problems on Puerto Rico. They're everywhere. Now,
I understand that people were offended by the joke, and
I understand that people were just like I was offended
by a revisionist historian on Tucker Carlson's podcast. And I'm
(25:19):
offended by not the fact that Must allows anti semitism
on X, but I am offended by the actual anti
semitism posts that are made on X. And I think
it was probably bad politics for Trump to allow a
stupid joke a roast comedian when that was not a roast.
(25:44):
I just think that I don't think they were thinking about, hey,
what kind of comedian should we have. You know, Don
Recles did a lot of roasting of Ronald Reagan, but
not in your closing argument. A step back from this
for a moment. This is what they've got now. I
(26:10):
know this was I know I'm a daily because I
was off yesterday, but this was Trump's big I want
you to think about the symbolism. Madison Square Garden is
not far from the New York courthouses, including the Federal Courthouse.
(26:33):
It's not far from the courthouses where Donald Trump is
facing a lot of legal challenges. By the Democrat machine
that's engaged.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
In law fair.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
Donald Trump is probably not going to win New York's
Electoral College votes. But New York is Donald Trump's city.
He may not have built that city on rock and roll.
Donald Trump, other than Robert Moses, is probably one of
(27:07):
the most prolific builders in New York City, maybe Robert
Moses and the Fisher Brothers. That's his city. And he
showed up in your face, brought tens of thousands of
people together standing room only, and then crowds all outside
(27:33):
of every stripe you can possibly imagine, gays, straits, lesbians, bisexuals, asexuals,
probably even some transgenders in the crowd. Every conceivable all
three races were there, every conceivable ethnicity, every conceivable religion,
Jews and Arabs together, Israeli flags flying from the rafters,
(27:59):
not the rafters, from the seats, the overhangs. And then
you've got Trump's son in law and his daughter. They're Jewish.
That are they anti said minds? I don't think so.
It's inappropriate and desperate to hold people accountable for things
(28:20):
that they did not do or did not say. And
it's better under our system, which is why I question
sometimes whether we can actually live in liberty or freedom.
But it's better to let people express their prejudice than
it is to censor that prejudice.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
And it's better to take a break from time. Dang it,
I'm going to roll here. Would you leave me alone.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
About if you died, does your vote count?
Speaker 1 (28:49):
My father is a Democrat from day one. He died
in nineteen ninety, he's still voting, and I still think
they're counting his vote. So I hope that answers your question.
That does Thank you.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
I knew somebody somewhere on the text line someplace, somebody
who gives a joke about dead people voting. I want
to I want to swerve off to something that Dragon
pointed out. I've not looked at text messages this morning
because I've been kind of busy. So let's see. Let's
(29:27):
go back to October twenty six, that would have been
last week. I get a text message that says, Michael
Good segment on traditional media propaganda. After I worked in
TV in the seventies and eighties, I taught this in
all of my college level courses in Colorado from nineteen
(29:48):
eighty six to twenty ten. Hope it's part of the stats.
By the way, I was a Democrat and then today Michael, ABC, CBS,
and NBA see are evil. I know. I grew up
with them and haven't watched their news in years. The
only place I hear them now is like on your
radio show.
Speaker 1 (30:10):
Michael.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
This is from again this morning at seven thirty five.
This would be Uh, it's twenty one minutes after that
last text message, Michael. Now you have pointed out your
show news biases. Maybe now you understand why I only
listen occasionally. You and Dragon are sellouts anything for a buck. Huh.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
Well, let's deconstruct that for a moment.
Speaker 2 (30:39):
Yes, both Dragon and I have pointed out in accuracies,
biases out now falsehoods of both the national newscast and
even our local newscasts, both internally like right outside this
(31:00):
door and local television stations.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
We don't listen to the radio stations.
Speaker 3 (31:06):
I can't point out biases from just this past weekend
from the national ABA.
Speaker 1 (31:11):
Oh yeah, okay, yeah.
Speaker 2 (31:12):
Dragon even sent me something over the weekend about some
biases from from ABC News. But we have we have
actually replayed and ripped apart some of the ABC News. Now,
let me tell you something about when you say that
that Dragon and I are sellouts anything for a buck.
Speaker 1 (31:29):
One.
Speaker 2 (31:30):
We don't make a penny off ABC or the local
news department.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
Nothing.
Speaker 2 (31:39):
My salary is paid by iHeartMedia, not by the news
department or by ABC, CBS, NBC or a Fox News
or anybody else. And the tout, the the endorsement fees
I get are paid by my sponsors. So how are
we sellouts? We don't make a dime off the news,
(32:01):
And in fact, honestly, I'm surprised that we haven't gotten
our asstituted out for criticizing our own news department. I've
actually gone out to our news department in the past
and said, hey, so and so I just heard a
story on the news you just did and that's inaccurate.
(32:23):
You might want to go look at XYZ.
Speaker 1 (32:27):
And I don't know whether I know.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
Sometimes they have said oh, thank you, and they've got
and done that, and then the next news hour it's different.
Sometimes they probably ignore me. I don't know, you know why.
Speaker 1 (32:38):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (32:38):
I don't listen to it. Only when I just happened
to catch it do I listen to it.
Speaker 1 (32:44):
So I'm not sure how we're sellout.
Speaker 2 (32:48):
And if you are and have been involved in the
media as you say, then you know we have zero
control over that whatsoever. I can go my head against
the wall.
Speaker 1 (33:02):
As I have and said I.
Speaker 2 (33:03):
Want Fox News over here on k how well, we're
glad to know what you want now, what you're gonna get. Nationally,
we have a contract with ABC
Rannie, that guy's full of bow vine peces. We don't
like you. Well, that was certainly uncalled for, but accurate.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
I don't know why you have to come in here
and you know, I come back, I'm fresh, I'm can
ready and rested and ready to go, and you have.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
To do that. I just think that's so unfair, so unfair.
I'm want to go. I want I'm gonna go.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Back to the media research for a moment. They report
this that since July, ABC, CBSNBC, as I said before,
have treated Harris to seventy eight percent positive coverage, while
during that same period they gave Trump eighty five percent
(00:51):
negative coverage. And that's based on explicit statements that they
can evaluate based on the content of those statements from
either reporters, anchors, or so called nonpartisan sources, you know,
like experts they bring on or actual voters they talk to.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
Here's what.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
I find encouraging. Now it may not sound encouraging, but
let me explain why the difference in coverage between the
two candidates this year is far greater than in twenty sixteen,
when both Trump and Hillary Clinton received mostly negative coverage
(01:39):
ninety one percent for Trump, seventy nine percent for Clinton.
It's even greater than in twenty twenty when Joe Biden
was treated to sixty six percent positive coverage ninety two
percent negative for Trump. Now they're A analysis shows that
(02:02):
since July, news coverage, again mainly from the networks, has
included two hundred and thirty hundred and thirty minutes of
negative stories about Trump and all the different allegations you know,
made against the president. And then on the conversely, the
networks have provided only minimal coverage of any controversies regarding
(02:24):
Kamala Harris, for example. How much news coverage have now
you're probably not the audience to asked this question of
because you're you're exceptional, your special special education. Right in
(02:45):
my computer just shut down? What's hang on a second?
Welcome back?
Speaker 3 (02:52):
Yeah, you know you missed these high quality Windows ninety
eight machines.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
That's what I get for h log in, log in,
see if it comes back up. Okay, here it comes
back up. Now where was I?
Speaker 1 (03:06):
Oh? So I was talking about the two hundred and
thirty minutes of negative stories.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
About Trump? What about the negative stories about Kamala Harris?
What have you heard about Kamala Harris, that would be negative.
Have you heard stories? Has anyone asked her questions about
her husband, you know, slapping that woman or you know,
(03:34):
impregnating the nanny?
Speaker 1 (03:37):
No? Why not? Well?
Speaker 2 (03:40):
I think it's old mission and co mission. You're not
going to ask the question because you can't ask the question.
You don't have the opportunity to go ask the question.
She's avoiding the media like the plague. So when you
do have an opportunity to ask a question, you're going
to ask about something that people actually care about. Right,
(04:02):
the economy? Immigration still the number two the economy. Inflation
and immigration still the top three issues, not even abortion,
which she holds an entire rally about. You know, I
found very weird. This is a footnote.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
Do you know I find Billy in Texas too? What
wasn't that rally in Texas too?
Speaker 2 (04:21):
He was in Houston and Beyonce the I don't have
the SoundBite in front of me, but if I recall correctly,
Beyonce says that she's there not as a celebrity, which
she is, but she's there as a mother in order
to protect a woman's right to kill their baby.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
And I makes perfect sense.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
I was again abortion is not one of my big issues,
but they become so unhinged about it that it just
it was like unbelievable. I'm here as a mother and
I want to make certain that my children know that
I should have had the choice to kill them if
(05:07):
I had wanted to.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
Maybe I'm a bit slow in this whole abortion debate
and a whatnot. And it's brought back to the states,
so each state gets to decide what they want to do.
So if you're in a state that does not allow
abortions and you want one, there's absolutely nothing stopping you
from going to a neighboring state or a state that
does allow them.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
And am I wrong? Yes, you are wrong.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
And here's why you're wrong, Okay, because you assume that
somebody has transportation, that they can buy an airplane ticket,
they can put gas in their car, or that they
can get on the light rail station here at Bellevue
and twenty five, and they can travel to California on
that light rail and get their abortion mother in California.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
I also heard.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
That Colorado is now being considered a sanctuary abortion state.
We're sanctuaries for everything, But did anyone ever stop to
think about Beyonce is talking about I'm here as a mother,
not as a celebrity. And I think most people that
(06:15):
were there were there because.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Beyonce was there and she is a celebrity.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Do you think that anybody in that crowd thought to themselves,
isn't it odd that you're there talking about you're there
as a mother so that you can support a woman's
right to kill their baby.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
I just found it confusing. I found it odd.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
But in fact, the Media Research Center found that thirty
one percent, almost a third of network news airtime has
been focused on negative stories regarding personal controversies just overall. Meanwhile,
five percent of airtime so overall thirty one percent negative
stories regarding personal controversies about Donald Trump. Five of air
(07:05):
time was dedicated to similar topics regarding Kamala Harris. The
two most covered issues, and this is where I think
the symbiotic relationship between the Democrat Party and the networks
the cabal is best seen. The two most covered issues
(07:30):
regarding Donald Trump had been the January sixth Capitol riots
and allegations leveled by Harrison and of course other Democrats too,
accusing Trump of being a fascist and a danger to democracy.
Now if the two most important issues, the three most
(07:50):
important issues that every poll, they can't ignore it because
the numbers are so overwhelming. Actually, more than three quarters
of Americans think that this country is on the wrong track. Okay,
so you just start with that. Hey, whatever we're doing
is that it ain't working, it's the wrong thing. We
(08:13):
need to be going a different direction.
Speaker 3 (08:15):
That's why she wants to turn the page.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
That's why she wants to turn the page. But she
doesn't want to make any changes from the pages that
she's been reading from for the past three and a half.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
Or four years. She ain't changing the book.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
She ain't changing the book. She may be going to
the next page in progressivism, in the next page toward
our marks, toward Marxism, but she's not going to change
the book. She's still singing from the same hymn. So
you've you've got You've got three quarters say we're on
the wrong track. And then within that seventy five percent,
(08:52):
most people say inflation in the economy and immigration of
their top three issues. And they're all interchangeable. So why
are they focused so much on January sixth and a
danger to democracy? Because that's all they've got they can't
offer you anything that is going to solve immigration illegal immigration,
(09:19):
or is going to solve the problems with the economy.
So if all they have is fascism and a danger
to democracy, there's where the media is going to focus
and that's what they're going to cover. That's what Kamala
Harris is going to keep his spouse and keep out
there spewing all the time, and that's what they're going
to keep covering. In fact, she's going to the Ellipse.
(09:42):
I think sometime this week. Maybe I don't know when
it is, but sometime this week, Kamala Harris is going
to the Ellipse. Why is she doing that? Because I
guarantemn toe you she'll talk about how this is this
is where the fascism was born. This is where the
Nazis gathered on January six and they almost destroyed American democracy.
(10:06):
And Donald Trump was the leader. He encouraged it, he
told him, because he told them to take their their
their torches and their pitchforks, and to go up there,
and to take their guns and their bazukahs and their grenades,
and to go up there and to kill Mike Pence,
and to go up there and to kill Capitol police officers.
And I'll bet you a dollar to a donut that
(10:28):
she talks about, you know, cops that died that day. Hmm,
don't recall that. She'll talk about all of the damage
that was done. Yeah, there was some damage done, but
it wasn't extensive. She'll she'll completely ignore Trump's admonition on
January four, two days before January sixth, that hey, we
(10:51):
have intel. You have intel that shows that there are
going to be some troublemakers here. There's some agents provocateur.
I think you ought to be ready with the National Guard.
We got, you know, more than willing. I'll authorize the
use of the National Guard. Hell's bells all authorized the
use of the of the United States Military if we
need to. Now that raises lots of issues about posse commatitis,
but nonetheless, he was willing to say, hey, listen, you
(11:13):
need security. It might be a bad day. And they
all ignored it. And I sincerely believe that they ignored
it because they wanted it to happen. And I believe
that there truly were agents provocateur that day that were
in there, whether ray Epps was one of them or not.
(11:35):
I'll leave that up to you. But they were there
to encourage the riots of all the people that had
the largest grievances, and that would be Allioc bar and
Alex Jones, none of whom participated in any of that.
(11:59):
And at the same time they were encouraging other people. No,
don't go that way, do not go that way. We're
protesting over here. We're gonna be on the northeast corner
parking lot. That is not us. Stay away from that.
But of course, when you have throngs of tens of
thousands of people, people get caught up in those throngs
and you can't move. You can as everybody is moving
(12:22):
to the east. You may be trying to go perpendicular
to the north, and you're going to as you go
to the north, you're gonna keep kept You're gonna keep
being pushed to the east as you're making your way
to the north side of that crowd. And depending on
where you start, you're gonna end up end up on
the steps steps of the Capitol. And most people who
(12:46):
end up on the steps of the Capitol are almost
it's almost irresistible to not walk up the steps of
the US Capitol and so now you're caught up in
the throng, You're caught up in the mall when you
had no intention whatsoever of doing that. So that shows
(13:08):
that there is this coalescence, this merger of the cabal
and the Harris campaign, the Democrat Party to call Trump
a fascist, to talk about the gathering of the Nazis
(13:29):
in Madison Square Garden, the same place where amazing Muhammad Ali.
Who else has been there? The Rolling Stones. I don't
Beatles ever played Madison Square Guard. I don't they have
played MSD or not. But you had the Democrat National
Convention there. I think at least twice in my lifetime
(13:49):
the Democrats have met there. And stop and think about that.
So you got Bill Clinton, Jimmy Carter, Walter Mondale, You've
had all these Democrat nominees at Madison Square Garden, and
not once, not one single time, has anything ever been
(14:11):
said about the fact that, oh, the Democrats were there.
But oh, we can't say anything about that because look
at all these people, Blacks, Jews, Arabs, Israelis. You had oh,
(14:31):
Puerto Weecans because they were trying to escape the trash.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
And I'll tell you about that in a minute too.
So you've got you've got all of those people there. Now,
how stupid does the American population have to be to
think that Donald Trump is a fascist because he held
his closing argument, if you will, in Madison Square Guard
(15:00):
where everybody are the rolling stones fascists? Are they a
bunch of Nazis? Is Muhammad Ali? As much as I
may have disagreed with Muhammad Ali's politics? Was he a Nazi?
Was he a fascist? Were all the Jews that showed
up Orthodox and otherwise that showed up Jews for Trump?
(15:21):
Were What about the Arabs for Trump? Were they Nazis?
And the Jews and the Arabs were together in the
same arena. You had every conceivable identity politics that Democrats
want us to focus on in that arena. And you
(15:41):
had Bobby Kennedy Junior, who is not exactly mister conservative.
You can't say that RFK Jr. Is William F. Buckley
or Ronald Reagan. But nonetheless there's some commonalty. And it
shows that people that have completely different political viewpoints on
(16:03):
some subjects may have similar views on other subjects, and
they can all appear and speak that they Ramaswami Halsey
Gabbard once once actually campaigned for Bernie Sanders to seeing
the light and you and you're calling all of them Nazis.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
Go back to what I said.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
At the very beginning about the poll numb and Trump
getting above that. All we have to do is not
screw up over the next seven days. I gotta tell you,
mother truckers laugh right up there with Kamala's cackle. Oie,
(16:54):
we're gonna get a fight going between those two. Good,
We'll get a fight going there. So let's go back
to the MSG for just a moment. So according to
the media, everything that I heard while I was gone
was that that rally at Madison Square Garden was racist, fascist,
anti Semitic. It was just horrible.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
But real quick, I got a slight factoid that has
to deal with the bumper music that I played here
live in the other a Portunately, you won't be able
to hear on the podcast, but.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
I'll bring it off. We call Billy Joel. Wasn't it was?
It was a piano man.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
Piano man, Yeah, okay, yeah, who's Jewish?
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Huh uh huh.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
Who also happens to hold the record for the most
lifetime performances at Madison Square Garden Square Garden.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
Well, and that fits in pretty well with the points
that I wanted with what I want to make here.
So if the proof of it being a Nazi rally
is a nineteen thirty nine rally, or there were other
things that maybe slipped under the you know, kind of
(18:12):
the the top line of the news media.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
Well, let's see.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
We had Tucker Carlson who hosted a World War Two
historian that's a revisionist historian on his podcast. I didn't
listen to all of it. I read part of the transcript.
I thought it was nuts, totally nuts. Elon Musk. Now,
(18:36):
why is Elon Musk a Nazi? Because he allows anti Submitic.
Speaker 3 (18:43):
You mean the African American Elon Musk.
Speaker 2 (18:46):
Yeah, that guy, that guy who allows people to exercise
free speech, which means they say anti Semitic things on
X which I have a problem with what people say,
but I don't have a problem with people saying it.
Or that the comedian who joked about Latinos having a
(19:06):
lot of children, which is kind of like Mormons and
Catholics having a lot of kids, kind of true, and
that Puerto Rico does have a lot of trash and
in fact, Puerto Rico does have a landfill problem. Puerto
Rico has a wastewater problem, a landfill problem. They've had
(19:29):
a lot of problems since Hurricane Maria. They've not been
able to fix them. We pump a lot of money
into Puerto Rico and we can't seem to fix any
of that. But none of those things. Even a comedian
that you might disagree with, you might kind of groan
what was that for?
Speaker 1 (19:50):
Or that I.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
Don't agree with every person that Tucker Carlson has on
his podcast. I don't agree with everything that I rea
see on X. I do think that Latinos have large families,
as do tend to Catholics, and Mormons tend to have
large families.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
Does that mean that.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
Every Latino family, every Catholic family, every Mormon family has
a large family. No, but it is a generalization. And
Puerto Rico does have a lot of trash, been there,
seen it, know of it. But then I want you
to ask yourself this question, one, are any of those
(20:34):
things racist, fascist, or even anti Semitic other than maybe
the actual things that people say, which they have a
right to say. And then I was thinking about, you know,
I mentioned Jimmy Carter, Walter Mondale, Bill Clinton. Jimmy Carter
was nominated to be president at MSG nineteen seventy six,
(20:59):
and then held a large rally there on October thirty,
a few days just prior to the nineteen eighty presidential election.
Now I know that Jimmy is in hospice. He's been
in hospice for like the past century. Jimmy Carter was,
If my family ever does this, I swear I'll kill him.
(21:21):
They hold poor Jimmy out in front of the cameras
his mouth agape out in some I don't know, family
backyard or something, and announced that Jimmy is ready to vote.
Leave him alone, preserve his dignity.
Speaker 3 (21:38):
Abnoestly questioned, this show is all about squirrels and whatnot.
But this just came to me. If Jimmy Carter had
billed out his ballot and dies before the election, does
it still count.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Yeah, it does. As long as they got it into
the system.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
It goes into the system. But it's not election day,
it's election seasons. I'm just we're in an election season.
I just want to make sure that I got all
that clear. So if if I drop off, you you've
already voted, right, I have not yet, but well you have.
We're going to this weekend. So yeah, So if I
drop off my ballot, say today, and I get into
(22:17):
a car accident and die tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
I get a new producer the next day. Lucky you.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
That's about your ballot. I'm thinking I get a new producer.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
But that still counts. Yes, I'm a dead person who voted.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
Yes, but you voted in the election season. Okay, yes,
your ballot hasn't been counted yet, but it will be counted.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
It'll be dead by the time it was counted. If
that's true, that that sucks to be you. Huh, yeah,
you you've already voted. You've already voted.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
Uh, let's see, let's think about well, let me let
me let me go back to uh Carter. Nobody mentions
that a few days before the nineteen eighty presidential election,
Jimmy Carter held a large rally in MSG almost the
(23:09):
seed Today's Tuesday, October twenty nine. That rally was what
on the twenty seventh. Okay, they are three days apart.
Does that make Does three days make the difference between
Nazis and a bunch of Yahoo Democrats, No, Tucker Carlson
(23:31):
Elon Musk, neither one have endorsed anti Semitism or Holocaust denial.
Tucker Carlson may have talked to someone who, in my opinion,
was a Holocaust denier, but so what now.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
I do.
Speaker 2 (23:48):
Disagree with how Tucker Carlson conducted the interview, but it's
his interview. He can ask the questions he wants to
and the comedians about Latinos having many children, that's not
false either, at least according to the US Census. And
the joke about Puerto Rico and trash, it's not it's
(24:13):
not racist. There actually is a genuine garbage crisis on
Puerto Rico. He didn't say that the Puerto Ricans were garbage,
that the island is garbage, and quite frankly, it is.
Do you know that the average amount of garbage produced
(24:36):
per person each day in the rest of the United
States is four point four pounds two kilograms. In Puerto Rico,
the average amount of garbage produced per person each day
is five point five six pounds or two point five
three kilograms. And you can do an easy Google or
dut Go or being served, but you can just do
(24:58):
any search for landfill problems on Puerto Rico. They're everywhere. Now,
I understand that people were offended by the joke, and
I understand that people were just like I was offended
by a revisionist historian on Tucker Carlson's podcast. And I'm
(25:19):
offended by not the fact that Must allows anti semitism
on X, but I am offended by the actual anti
semitism posts that are made on X. And I think
it was probably bad politics for Trump to allow a
stupid joke a roast comedian when that was not a roast.
(25:44):
I just think that I don't think they were thinking about, hey,
what kind of comedian should we have. You know, Don
Recles did a lot of roasting of Ronald Reagan, but
not in your closing argument. A step back from this
for a moment. This is what they've got now. I
(26:10):
know this was I know I'm a daily because I
was off yesterday, but this was Trump's big I want
you to think about the symbolism. Madison Square Garden is
not far from the New York courthouses, including the Federal Courthouse.
(26:33):
It's not far from the courthouses where Donald Trump is
facing a lot of legal challenges. By the Democrat machine
that's engaged.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
In law fair.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
Donald Trump is probably not going to win New York's
Electoral College votes. But New York is Donald Trump's city.
He may not have built that city on rock and roll.
Donald Trump, other than Robert Moses, is probably one of
(27:07):
the most prolific builders in New York City, maybe Robert
Moses and the Fisher Brothers. That's his city. And he
showed up in your face, brought tens of thousands of
people together standing room only, and then crowds all outside
(27:33):
of every stripe you can possibly imagine, gays, straits, lesbians, bisexuals, asexuals,
probably even some transgenders in the crowd. Every conceivable all
three races were there, every conceivable ethnicity, every conceivable religion,
Jews and Arabs together, Israeli flags flying from the rafters,
(27:59):
not the rafters, from the seats, the overhangs. And then
you've got Trump's son in law and his daughter. They're Jewish.
That are they anti said minds? I don't think so.
It's inappropriate and desperate to hold people accountable for things
(28:20):
that they did not do or did not say. And
it's better under our system, which is why I question
sometimes whether we can actually live in liberty or freedom.
But it's better to let people express their prejudice than
it is to censor that prejudice.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
And it's better to take a break from time. Dang it,
I'm going to roll here. Would you leave me alone.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
About if you died, does your vote count?
Speaker 1 (28:49):
My father is a Democrat from day one. He died
in nineteen ninety, he's still voting, and I still think
they're counting his vote. So I hope that answers your question.
That does Thank you.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
I knew somebody somewhere on the text line someplace, somebody
who gives a joke about dead people voting. I want
to I want to swerve off to something that Dragon
pointed out. I've not looked at text messages this morning
because I've been kind of busy. So let's see. Let's
(29:27):
go back to October twenty six, that would have been
last week. I get a text message that says, Michael
Good segment on traditional media propaganda. After I worked in
TV in the seventies and eighties, I taught this in
all of my college level courses in Colorado from nineteen
(29:48):
eighty six to twenty ten. Hope it's part of the stats.
By the way, I was a Democrat and then today Michael, ABC, CBS,
and NBA see are evil. I know. I grew up
with them and haven't watched their news in years. The
only place I hear them now is like on your
radio show.
Speaker 1 (30:10):
Michael.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
This is from again this morning at seven thirty five.
This would be Uh, it's twenty one minutes after that
last text message, Michael. Now you have pointed out your
show news biases. Maybe now you understand why I only
listen occasionally. You and Dragon are sellouts anything for a buck. Huh.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
Well, let's deconstruct that for a moment.
Speaker 2 (30:39):
Yes, both Dragon and I have pointed out in accuracies,
biases out now falsehoods of both the national newscast and
even our local newscasts, both internally like right outside this
(31:00):
door and local television stations.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
We don't listen to the radio stations.
Speaker 3 (31:06):
I can't point out biases from just this past weekend
from the national ABA.
Speaker 1 (31:11):
Oh yeah, okay, yeah.
Speaker 2 (31:12):
Dragon even sent me something over the weekend about some
biases from from ABC News. But we have we have
actually replayed and ripped apart some of the ABC News. Now,
let me tell you something about when you say that
that Dragon and I are sellouts anything for a buck.
Speaker 1 (31:29):
One.
Speaker 2 (31:30):
We don't make a penny off ABC or the local
news department.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
Nothing.
Speaker 2 (31:39):
My salary is paid by iHeartMedia, not by the news
department or by ABC, CBS, NBC or a Fox News
or anybody else. And the tout, the the endorsement fees
I get are paid by my sponsors. So how are
we sellouts? We don't make a dime off the news,
(32:01):
And in fact, honestly, I'm surprised that we haven't gotten
our asstituted out for criticizing our own news department. I've
actually gone out to our news department in the past
and said, hey, so and so I just heard a
story on the news you just did and that's inaccurate.
(32:23):
You might want to go look at XYZ.
Speaker 1 (32:27):
And I don't know whether I know.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
Sometimes they have said oh, thank you, and they've got
and done that, and then the next news hour it's different.
Sometimes they probably ignore me. I don't know, you know why.
Speaker 1 (32:38):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (32:38):
I don't listen to it. Only when I just happened
to catch it do I listen to it.
Speaker 1 (32:44):
So I'm not sure how we're sellout.
Speaker 2 (32:48):
And if you are and have been involved in the
media as you say, then you know we have zero
control over that whatsoever. I can go my head against
the wall.
Speaker 1 (33:02):
As I have and said I.
Speaker 2 (33:03):
Want Fox News over here on k how well, we're
glad to know what you want now, what you're gonna get. Nationally,
we have a contract with ABC
