Speaker 1 (00:01):
Here's your host, Alex Garrett. All right, Well, the beauty
of having this podcast is I can put my words
to audio whenever I write something on my blog at
ALEXGNYC dot com. And it's kind of a good cross
promotional tool. But if you notice on Saturday night, who
(00:22):
was it at the Belmont Stakes? That it came down
to sovereignty versus journalism and sovereignty went out. And I'm
very happy because Belmont, who I've known forever at Belmont
even met to me Yankee Sam a couple of times
trained the Kentucky Derby and the Belmont Stakes winner. And
imagine if he had run in the Preakness, there could
(00:45):
have been there could have been a triple crown. But
my headline this weekend was this, of course, there was
sovereignty versus journalism at the wire. Where do you want
me to start with the parallel on the metaphors? Do
you want me to start on June fifth, when Elon
Musk and Donald Trump their fallout was all over the networks?
(01:06):
Do you want me to talk about the day sovereignty
went out? When on June sixth we honored d Day,
the day where yes, as I mentioned before, forty four
hundred and fourteen soldiers gave their lives on a day
that was monumental in American and global history, eliminating Nazi Germany.
(01:27):
It goes on. Do you want the example of what
happened as journalism was hanging on sovereignty? At seven o'clock
at night at the Winter Garden Theater, a man who
epitomized journalism, Edward R. Murrow, was depicted on stage like
on screen by George Clooney on CNN, and I felt,
(01:51):
what a moment where the horse journalism is odd at
the same time as an actual journalism story and byiography
was airing on CNN. Either that was pretty awesome or
(02:11):
do you want me to talk about the fact that
journalism downplayed the rioting in Los Angeles over the weekend
because okay, there were peaceful protests whatever blocking highway apparently
as peaceful. I don't get it, But why wouldn't the
National Guard be called in journalists, media outlets, Governor Newsom
(02:37):
to protect the sovereignty of our nation. The whole point
of the raids was to protect the sovereignty of our nation.
And you know, round up those who I have to
believe were pinned as violent illegals, violent illegals and nothing more.
(02:57):
And then, of course Gavin Newsom now suing the Trump
administration today, but he took to the media and tried
to spin it like we have it under control. No,
you didn't. There were cars burning in Paramount, California, in
Los Angeles suburbs, and you thought you had it under control.
(03:20):
You thought you had it under control. Media, you thought
the state of California had it under control. So you
went on and bashed what President Trump was doing with
the National Guard. What we saw this weekend was not journalism.
(03:41):
It was lying. It was gas lighting the American people
into believing what they were seeing was not actually cars
burning or law enforcement being harmed and obstructed. Journalism and
holding the rioters accountable, not siding with them. Point out
in my article at alexjmyc dot com to be very clear,
(04:05):
of course, journalists don't have to agree with the administration
and should question when necessary. That is journalism. But they
outright sided with the rioters this weekend. And I remember
distinctly watching a reporter on the street saying what a
great time the protests were have, playing music, honking cars,
(04:26):
as if the whole day didn't happen, and whatever was
gonna happen to night was not gonna happen. As if
to say she literally said this reporter said there weren't clashes, oops,
I mean face offs. Stick to the first term. There
(04:47):
were clashes, And they had just aired good Night and
good Luck about journalism integrity, only to have a reporter
backtrack on her commentary that's not journalism integrity. And you
know why I got pissed off that CNN went from
this amazing production of good Night and good Luck with
George Clooney Live from NYC to covering the rights, because
(05:12):
you know what Edward R. Murrow did. He not only
was an acclaimed journalist, but I believe in his reporting
he protected the sovereignty of America through his journalistic instincts
and held everyone accountable as it want their crunkite, as
is so many others have gone before us. That it
(05:33):
really was a disgrace that that people on throughout the
rest of the weekend totally dismantling whatever message goodnighting Gluck
was sending about journalism by having them blatantly lie to us,
lie to us that we weren't seeing rocks being thrown
(05:53):
at police cars that we weren't actually seeing, you know, clashes,
and these being dragged around. I think they even dragged
law enforcement around as well, that we didn't see anything violent.
That's what they made you to believe. But this weekend,
(06:17):
not just on the racetrack in Saratoga Springs, but in
our nation, sovereignty won out, the protection of our land
over the journalism downplaying of what was happening in our
own states. The sovereignty over journalism one out, not only
(06:42):
on the track in Saratoga Springs for the Baba Stakes,
it won out in our nation, in our nation. And
to conclude, if the legacy media, because there are a
lot of media people now that are fair and truly
reporting the facts. I love News Nation for that fact alone.
(07:07):
But if the legacy media continues to misleading, gaslights and boy,
I'm sorry to miss Lester Hope on NBC News. He
was a rock solid reporter. He embodied journalism. Okay, he
embodied journalism on NBC News. But if the legacy media
continues to gaslight and mislead us, I want sovereignty and
(07:29):
the striving of protecting the sovereignty of America to win out.
Every time in the battle of sovereignty versus journalism, and
not just on the racetrack. I'll add this, if sovereignty
wins out every time over journalism misreporting, we'll have even
(07:51):
more of a leg up for the United States of America.
