Transcripts For FOXNEWSW Hannity 20190221

Major decision by the prosecutors and it comes as a newly uncovered surveillance video, look at this, shows the two brothers that allegedly testify before the grand jury today paid by smollett to stage the assault. They are purchasing multiple items that were used and what now looks like a hate crime hoax. Including glasses, a ski mask, even a red hat, and earlier today the two men, literally testified before the grand jury against smollett. Smollett is in serious legal jeopardy tonight, and it could get far worse. Federal charges could also be on the way. But tonight smolletts attorneys are pushing back in a statement that says like any other citizen mr. Smollett enjoys the perception of innocence, particularly when there has been an investigation like this one where information both true and false has been repeatedly leaked. Given the circumstances, we intend to conduct a thorough investigation and to mount an aggressive defense. We believe in the due process of innocence here on the show, but the two brothers on the Surveillance Team had this message for the actor. They say that you are lying, what you stated that . I think that Jussie Smollett should come clearer because the truth will set him free. Sean powerful statement, we will take you live to the ground in chicago, april report coming up in minutes and a lot more coming up, what we see with smollett is absolutely nothing new in terms of the media buying a hoax. Hook, line, sinker. They go all the way in. The top story tonight, hannity watch and this abusively biased hateful mob media in america. Remember not so long ago countless socalled journalists pundits from all of the other outlets threw caution to the wind in order to support Jussie Smollett and his very flawed story. I was warned early on, we were waiting for the facts to come in. Despite the glaring red flags, they desperately wanted these wild claims, and his narrative to be true. According to the Mainstream Media, all Trump Supporters are racist, sexist, homophobic, zoom in a phobic, islamic, we are all monsters that want dirty air water to kill grandmas and kid. It is only a tiny tip of the iceberg and what is a medium mob coordinated character assassination that takes place so often, they are wrong so often. That fake news is abundance in this country. Remember the outrageous, despicable treatment in the media of now Supreme Court Justice Kavanaugh . What about the duke lacrosse case . What about the db ua rate case . What about baltimore, what about the Covington High School kids . Now famed attorney, somebody i have known a long time, linda wood has filed a massive 250 million lawsuit against the Washington Post on behalf of Nicholas Sandman, a brutally devastating 38 page lawsuit, you can see it on hannity. Com. And will be here in just a few minutes. 115pound Covington High School student who was absolutely vilified by this medium mob after he was videotaped standing saying nothing, smiling, and trying not to react to all that was going on around him. As you can see, a 64yearold native american activists drumming right in his face, and screaming rather loudly in his face, despite showing incredible amazing great restraint in staying calm and doing absolutely nothing wrong, Nicholas Sandman was repeatedly smeared, slandered, his character assassinated, over and over again and again on a national stage. They falsely reported that Nicholas Sandman approach the native american activists, it was the other way around. They falsely reported that he was a racist and disrespectful and meanspirited and even physical, all of that is not true. They did all of this based on what was only a short inconclusive 152nd clip that showed absolutely nothing. But from printed media, hollywood actors and actresses, democrats, cable news, major networks, nonstop absolute complete pile on. Fake news, character assassination against a 16yearold kid and it turns out he did nothing wrong. Extent may be where a maga had to. Some students harassing an older native american man, a vietnam vet in the midst of a special ceremony. The native american say that the video speaks for itself. He got caught doing something incredibly racist and disrespectful. It sounds like the main one who was standing in the face of the native american leader is already regretting some of those actions. A lot of people said build a wall, build a wall, said that that was shouted. These actions of our students are in consensus inconsistent with the teachings of our church. They were jeering and dancing, he has a smug look on his face. And everybody sees the smug look wants to punch that kid. That young man does not look like somebody who is appreciative and considerate of of the culture. I blame that [bleep] kid. What a little [bleep]. Smirk face. Sean while the medium mob was besmirching the character of this young Covington High School student, they essentially ignored the group of black hebrew israelites, we have it on tape. They couldve found it in 5 minutes. That were shouting at the kids vile, racist, homophobic, comments at Nicholas Sandmann and his classmates. Nicholas sandmann never responded under the most difficult response as part of the only thing he did was to encourage his fellow classmate not to respond. Watch and listen. Thats what makes America Great again. A bunch of child molesters. [bleep]. Look at all of these dusty [bleep] crackers. With that racist garbage on pair to look at these dirty [bleep] crackers. Sean all the media had to do was a little bit of work and asked a few questions. They had easy access to the tape, but the medium mob, they chose to rush to judgment, and vilify and destroy the reputation of a 16yearold kid and others. After all, he is wearing a red lets make America Great again hat, and attending oh, he is prolife, in march for life rally, which according to so many in the media is a vile, bigoted act. Watch this. It has become an invitation for confrontation, some refer to the hat as a modernday version of the confederate battle flag. The hat in some ways represents for many of us a kind of racial animus. The maga hat carries a certain connotation that provokes a conditioned reaction for many people. Especially from marginalized people. Think about the symbol of the red hat, when i see them make America Great again hat, chris, i am triggered. Sean Nicholas Sandmanns public persecution was widespread, all on the various almost all liberal Media Outlets, but the Washington Post, they were one of the ones that led the way. And the suit affirms that. A38 page brutal takedown. The post bullied an innocent child with an absolute disregard for the pain and destruction that these attacks could cause to his life. The post wanted to lead the charge against the child, because he was nothing but a pond and a political war against their adversary. Alan dershowitz believes and i agree with him that to this is a very reasonable case with a really good chance of coming out in favor of Nicholas Sandmann against the post. In i predict others. Theres a ton of precedents in this. What we see with Nick Sandmann is nothing new. I meant lindenwood who is going to join us in a minute, before e Fox News Channel, i started in october 1996 when the olympics was in atlanta, he was representing jewell, and the immediate aftermath of the bombing. Richard jewell was heralded and considered a hero after he says force spotted a suspicious bag, he push people away from the scene, he literally singlehandedly saved countlesse process. But then the Atlanta Journalconstitution they pointed the finger at Richard Jewell writing that they hero guard may have planted to the bomb. The medium mob all piled on in that case too. Why . Because they said that he fit the vision or the profile of a loan bomber. Single white man and he lived with his mother. I happen to be on the air at that time in atlanta, i found out later, i did not know it at the time, Richard Jewell was listening to my radio show. He told me later that i was the only person that did not to rush to judgment, because i thought that it was ridiculous. Well, just because he lives with his mother does not make him out to be a terrorist. I learned a valuable lesson. It has served me so well ever since. In the end, it turned out that the media rob mob, was dead wrong. I was right, and Richard Jewell was innocent and he was a hero. Lind would likely made him a rich man. I have not seen the settlements, but i believe that he died, at the age of 44 from a heart attack. I guarantee you, stress contributes to heart attacks. I strongly believe that in my heart, no medical assessment that is so devastated Richard Jewell data probably increase the stress load that led to an early death. We cover every controversial case, that lesson taught me to not rush to judgment in the duke lacrosse case, ferguson, baltimore, trey von, and george zimmerman, even the russian collusion hoax. The Cambridge Police acted stupidly, even vetting obama with the medium mob who loved and refused to do, i did what they would not do. Time after time this mob gets it wrong again and again. In the media and their friends on the left are always happy to smear, slander, besmirch anyone and everyone as long as it fits into their Divisive Political narrative. This has been the case for decades, but it has never been this bad in the era of trump it has become obvious more than ever. Lets take a look. This president trying to impersonate hugo chavez . Vladimir putin, he is he is not of sound mind. That is somebody that clinically you look at and you say theres something wrong there. Donald trump, up again, being a smoke. We can say that his words have an bold and white supremacist. He has given oxygen to racists. You are elevating trump to evil where as having raised three kids, i just think he has a giant toddler. Is it possible that he is not concerned with the mistresses, because she was one of them . Is that possible . We can no longer say that trump is a bad guy. If you vote for trump, you are the bad guy. Every second, every minute, every hour of every day of every week of every month of every year since President Trump has been president. Former cba journalist larry logan summed it up perfectly. The media everywhere is mostly liberal, not just in the u. S. , but in every country, 85 of journalists are registered democrats. So that is just a fact, right, nobody is registering democrat when they are really a republican, so the facts are on the side of what you just stated, most journalists are left or liberal or democrat or they have whatever word you want to give it, i always joke that the other 14 percent were too lazy to register. And there is maybe 1 of that is on the right. Sean she went on to say that she is probably committing professional suicide, she will join us in this show tonight, first before we talk to attorney lynwood, it appears that the Mueller Probe is finally wrapping up, sources telling the Fox News Channel that the investigation is near the end game. While the department of justice, the special councils have declined to comment, cnn, maybe they got something right, they are reporting that mueller could submit his findings to the attorney general bob barr as early as next week. Earlier today the president had a lot to say about the release of the report saying that it is all in the hands of his new attorney general, not him. And Justice Department rules that he decides. According the special counsel regulations mueller will provide a confidential report to the attorney general bob barr explaining the decisions reached by the special counsel. Next the attorney general will notify the chairs and ranking members of the house and Senate Judiciary committees upon the conclusion of the special counsels investigation. It is totally in the hands of the attorney general and his alone to decide what if any details can be released and in compliance with the law. It can control the timing of the notification over legitimate investigative or privacy concerns. They were presented to congress to decades ago. By democrats, janet reno, the ag, deputy ag eric holder, after the star investigation. If they were designed to make the special counsel more accountable to the public. And now ironically, the same people who are outraged at stars authority and the release of that report are the same ones wanting to give mueller free reign over President Trump, by the way, the next week the president and we will be with him about an important summit of the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula and kim jong un paid would it not be wholly inappropriate to actually release the findings when the president is out of the country . Participating in these highstakes negotiations on such an important topic . We also know, and i have always suspected, maybe i will be proven wrong, that muellers team of democrats would love to undermine the president in any way that they can. We will have more on this later in the show. Also, huge breaking developing news by sara carter and john solomon. Her first joining us now with more on the lawsuit and what is a medium mob, i got to know him in 1996, one of the most tenacious attorneys in the country, as he sent me a letter of cease and desist, i would beg for an apology, lind would is with us. Good to see you. Thank you for having me on. Sean i meant what i said about Richard Jewell, it has served me well. Let me say this to you, Richard Jewell always appreciated what you did for him, sean. And the mob went after richard, you are the sole voice in the media that urged caution and said, stop investigate, get the facts, get it right. Nobody else did that. Sean i looked at nicholas the sandman. He was always grateful for you doing that. Sean i think the stress killed him. I know it did. We look at the story, this kid, you cannot teach somebody to act more perfectly than he did under the circumstances, and it would have taken all of seven seconds to get the truth out. Your reaction . Well, let me tell you what to the Washington Post dated two nicholas, and other members of the Mainstream Media. You have the era of social media now, twitter, facebook, thank goodness that did not as exist back in 1996 when Richard Jewell was under attack. So the video goes viral, the mob attacks, and you would expect that the Mainstream Media would be responsible enough to pause, recognize that they are dealing with a student, investigate, and make sure that they have the facts accurate. That the story that they tell is accurate. But they did not pause when it came to nicholas. Because they wanted to rush out and they wanted to jump into the mob and give the mob a megaphone. So that they could attack this boy, because he was white, catholic, and he was wearing a make America Great again cap. If nicholas had not purchased that souvenir cap that day at the mall, if he was not wearing it, none of us would know who Nick Sandmann is. He would still be living his life privately, going to School Without worrying about how his school and his classmates and the world feel about him. Here is a 16yearold kid, sean. It is tough being 16. Think about what this young boy is having to deal with at age 16 when the entire world saw him the way that the media portrayed him as literally the face of evil. It is inexcusable, reprehensible conduct by the media. In the Washington Post led the way. Sean welcoming you also telegraphed my interpretation, i have read every word of your 38 page complaint that cnn is not far behind, and bc is not far behind, but i have to imagine if you add up all Media Outlets in this day and age and include hollywood actors and actresses, with the power of the pulpit that they have. Hundreds, thousands of potential lawsuits here . Certainly hundreds. To the good news is that we have two and a half years to identify and File Lawsuits against the wrongdoers. Because he is a minor, nick will turn 18 in july of 2020. We have two and a half years. We have a lot of work to do. Because the social media and mainstream mob of bullies was extremely large in number. And they were very vocal. In the Mainstream Media like the Washington Post gave them a megaphone. To go out and to shout to the world that this young boy had instigated this event, which he did not. Had engaged in behavior swarming around mr. Phillips, which he did not. Had blocked mr. Phillips ability to leave the scene, which he did not. Nicholas sandmann as you said, he did not do anything wrong. He exhibited the most respectful behavior of anyone involved in this incident. He was a child. He was accosted by adults. The black hebrew israelites as your clip shows yelling the most obscene slurs at these boys. Homophobic, racist slurs. And then you have this character, phillips. I say character, because i have watched what he said prayed he does not tell the same story twice, because he is a liar. Sean can you sue him . Interview after interview to tell his fall story and condemn this young innocent boy. Sean i assume by those comments and you said on twitter that you would sue Nathan Phillips as well. I watch what those kids went through and what the people said to them. They said nothing back. I dont know if i would have that kind of restraint. It is kind of amazing, they said that he went and confronted Nathan Phillips just the opposite. I went through a high litany of profile cases. And they get it wrong all the time, this mob. You dated both of us talking about 1996. I have spent the last 23 years of my career im sorry . Sean you still look the same. Well, thank you. Both of our hair is a different color now than it was back then. But i have spent the last two decades working in the area of First Amendment law trying to protect individuals reputations and seek redress from false attack. And i have watched it deteriorate over two decades. It has gotten worse and worse. And now they are attacking falsely a child. Things have to change. There has to be accountability. Sean and i know that you do not need the money. I know that this is your passion. I am happy that they hired you. You are the best person in this. Lin wood, thank you.

Prosecutors are now charging the empire actor with felony Disorderly Conduct for filing a false police report. Look at the headline from tomorrows new york post. Brutal, joining us now with reactions Trial Attorney rebecca rosewood lane, and Fox News Contributor, well, i think we will get to it in a second. The dan bongino is with us. Rose, let me start. I read this at the top of my head. Former just utterly conduct, i know that that is legal speak for filing a false police report. But we now know that we have the videotape of the two people that says that he paid the money buying the very items used in the attack it, and those two people went before a grand jury before the charges were filed. We do have grand jury indicting. That is required for any case that it will be possible for the term. He is facing 13 years, but his attorney has issued a statement that it is important to say that he does have a presumption of innocence. As does everyone else. Possibly the two concocted the whole scheme and claimed he did. But maybe they were the ones i did it. Im not saying that based on what we have so far, it is not looking good for smollett, but there is always a possibility that he is innocent, so i think that we should take a step back, lets see sean totally agree. It does not look good for him, i will tell you that. Dan, we will get to in a second. Joining us from chicago is ray, i fired him last night, but apparently you are taking heat for doing a news report on my show in chicago, gee, i am sorry. But you have been great on the show. I really appreciate you having me on, thank you, sean. Sean i do apologize for mispronouncing your name, but now i will do it on purpose. It was good tv, but as you said, it does not look good for Jussie Smollett, Chicago Police are accusing him publicly of making the entire thing up, and it looks like we can now start to use the word that police asked us not to use before, and that is hoaxed, smolletts legal team met for several hours at ty courthouse trying to work some agreement out. No agreement was reached, therefore the prosecutors put the grand jury and play. The two brothers testified before that grand jury for two and a half hours. The attorney telling me no plea deal was reached, they were not granted immunity, because they did nothing wrong. Meanwhile, the evidence seems to mount that the two brothers did stage this event. We have surveillance video, fox 32 obtaining video from a Beauty Supply is store showing the men walking into the store buying a red hat, ski masks, and the date of the video was january 28th. That is the day before the incident is reported, so the brothers are cooperating saying that they put him up to it, smollett is saying that the brothers are lying. The attorney is saying that smollett is not telling the truth. He says that they are lying, what you say to that . I think that Jussie Smollett should come clear, because the truth will set him free. That was me asking her that question, lets get the statement from Jussie Smolletts legal team that we got an hour ago, like any other citizen, smollett enjoys a presumption of innocence particularly when there is an investigation like this, one where information both true and false has been repeatedly leaked, giving the circumstances we intend to conduct a thorough investigation and amount and aggressive defense. As your other guest said, a class four fennel demand felony could be 13 years in prison. The question is will he show up, if he doesnt, there will be a warrant issued for his arrest. Sean thank you for that report, we bring back in rebecca rosewood lynn, and dan bongino. This is really sounding more and more testimony is true. I do want to give due process, but it is not looking good, dan bongino, is this a hate crime hoax in the making . Consider all of the examples that i mentioned with lin wood, it sounds similar. They want to believe the worst about the donald trump and his supporters. Yes, the list of hate crime hoax goes on and on, that does not mean racism and hate crimes do not exist, it means the ones that have garnished significant Media Attention happened to be hoaxes. That is just a fact, sean, and i agree with the guest and due, due process, of course. This is probably the only network that actually cover the case fairly from the start and did not jump the gun, but remember, due process does not mean that we cannot think about this critically like reasonable human beings. I think thats what you, i, and a lot of people died from the start when there were questions. Their questions. I was a street cop in the 7. 5 precinct in brooklyn. I used to walk a post from 6 00 at night to 2 00 in the morning. You see a couple of guys on a relatively empty street in an Industrial Area at 2 00 in the morning with bleach and a noose wearing maga hats with no one else around, and my not be reasonable suspension to pull them over, but probably worth giving them an extra look. Nobody thought this was unusual . That people were just carrying around bleach in the middle of the night to randomly attack an actor, it just sean a storm. To speak a red flag should of been going off everywhere. Sean rebecca, i did what i did in those zimmer van tron case, i talk to people, in the duke lacrosse case i talked to some of the parents and the kids, when the mob rushed to judgment, they were wrong so often, and when do they start getting held accountable . Because you look at the covington kids and Nick Sandmann, there are a lot of similarities here. I remember, i was here for the duke case with you, i was here for Treavon Martin with you. Sean you were on the right side with me, thats right. What is unfortunate here is that if Jussie Smollett did this, why are you playing into h hate, such negativity when there is such an opportunity now to bring people together. Sean the media has a narrative, and the reason that they jump and they do not look, it would have taken them six seconds to find out the truth in the Nicholas Sandmann case. Not even a phone call did these people make. They are going to lose, lin wood is going to destroy every one of these big Media Outlets. I guarantee you. It is a slamdunk. And they will all pay. Sure, and in the situation we should have that there is no reason why everyone has to jump to judgment with the maga hat. It is ridiculous. Sean 15 last seconds, dan. You asked who would hold the media accountable, it is already happening, the court of Public Opinion is all that matters. Very few people trust the media like they used 250 or 60 years ago. Sean thank you both, when we come back, huge breaking news on the deep state. It turns out that the fbis top lawyer wanted to charge Hillary Clinton, sara carter, john solomon have the latest.

Sean by the way, democrats democrats, gerrit reno, eric holder, they were pushing that. President trump making it clear that it is up to the attorney general of william barr on whatever release or no release of muellers findings, we do have major developments, hannity watch on the deep state, unelected bureaucrats caught trying to undermine President Trump. Preventing them from getting elected and then undermining his election and undoing the will of the american people. And to their Blind Loyalty to james comey. With the reports tonight, sara carter and john solomon reporting. Former top fbi lawyer james baker believed the clintons use of a private server was not backed enough to secure an indictment and charge her for violations under the espionage act, and i will add to, the leading subpoena emails for another thing. Baker suspiciously changes his mind after discussions with comey, a clinton lover. Other senior officials. The disgraced fbi official Andrew Mccabe ramping up his efforts to and dont forget, maybe we will take the president , maybe will invoke the 25th amendment. John solomon with his report also about a third dirty dolphy dossier, yes, ruth ors white nalley, she produced a parade of john solomon from the hill and Fox News Contributor sara carter, investigative reporter. Lets start with the fbi issue first. Both you and john report, that baker originally believed what we all know is a fact, Hillary Clinton committed a felony that was a violation of the espionage act and i believe obstruction of justice. And they rigged if the investigation. Yes, what is so fascinating about the testimony is that he is going back and forth with the John Ratcliffe out of texas who is questioning him about this. And he specifically states that he absolutely believed from the beginning when he went through this binder that he was basically given a binder with the classified emails and documents that he was appalled. He did not see any other way around it but to charge Hillary Clinton. And he continued to battle according to his own testimony with people in his office along with comey as well. He had arguments going back and forth until the very end. It was not until the very end that he changed his mind. But more importantly, when radcliffe questions him again and he says, do you still believe it is appalling what happened the mishandling of these classified documents, which baker himself described that highly classified documents, he said, yes. He basically said yes, even to this day he believes that it was appalling. I think the question is why at the very end did he jump in and change sean they wrote to the exoneration ma, peter strzok said that clinton should win 1000000000, he conducted the interview, she got away with stuff that no other american citizen could ever get away with. And then the dossier, the russian lies, and lying to the fosdick fisa courts, and sabotage an unelected president , john solomon, your report on this as well as the third dossier, written by, produced be ohr, bruces wife. Im struck today, he talked about how the story on covington, shifted on the attack in chicago, think about the stories of Hillary Clinton and donald trump have shifted from what the media originally reported in what we now know today. For a long time the fbi said that everybody was in unanimity about not charging Hillary Clinton, we find out until the very last minute james baker was disagreeing with that decision. When we started we were told that the trump investigation had to be open because there was actionable for an intelligent suggesting that he was compromise. Now we know that intelligence was nothing more than Christopher Steele and sidney blumenthal, and now the wife of bruce ohr, after learning what Christopher Steele said to the he told congress that his wife put the dossier together, gave it to him and he routed it to the fbi despite the conflict of interest that rules justice official should never get involved in cases where their spouse has a financial interest. Sean we only have a small sampling of all of these interviews, we do not, there is so much information, you both agree with me, exit question, that in fact when everything comes out, there is at least a dozen people that should be charged here . Yes, absolutely, if not more. Sean how many more . I would say definitely between 1220. Sean and john . The House Republicans who did all of the interviews, they are preparing criminal referrals. Sean it has to be released. It will be nine right off the bat. Sean u. S. Sources in the special counsel office, what are you hearing about what will be in the report supposedly released next week . I think that the end is near and there will be no charges against the president recommended. Sean no rush of collusion, two years, wow. The media lies, the mob mentality. You guys have been phenomenal. We started two years ago this march, both of you, breaking open the story. You both deserve credit. Our next guest, stay tuned, causing quite a stir, lara logan is here to explain how the antitrump media extreme is even risking her total career in doing so. Thats next.

Thank you for flying turkish airlines. Taxi you waiting for someone . No. Just. Looking. Everywhere is mostly liberal, not just in the u. S. , but 85 of journalists are registered democrats. Thats just a fact. We have few conventions, if you are like us, not really rules, but that you need at least two firsthand sources for something. Those things help keep you, keep your work to a certain standard. Those standards are out the window. I mean, you read one story off another or hear it based on one administrative official, a former administration official. Right . That is not journalism. That is [bleep]. Im sorry, that is absolute [bleep]. Sean it is absolute horse lara logan bravely stating what so many people know about the mob media violence. She did not mince words, even risking career suicide. Lara joins us now. Great to see you. Thank you for being with us. Thank you, sean. Sean how many years did you spend out with our troops in iraq and afghanistan . How many tours of duty . Years, months . I live in iraq for five years, and i lived in afghanistan for a year, and i went to afghanistan dozens and dozens of times. Ive been back to iraq, i was there before with saddam hussein, i was on the battlefield most of the time from 9 11, and its only since i have had my children that i have kind of and since i was on was killed in egypt that i have scaled back. Sean you nearly died in to hear square, geraldo told me, i never knew this that he shot, had a video of your vehicle getting hit with an ied. I never knew that story. Is that true . Yes, that is true. I think it was way back in 2003 when we were blown up by a double line on the afghantaca stanley border, and geraldo and his brother were a few vehicles behind us, and you know how ince this is, in those days, the United States military did not even have armored humvees on the battlefield. Do you think what that they did not even have armored vehicles, but they needed it. Sean it so wrong. And i bring this up, because wow is coming you wrist your life to report. And i watched you on 60 minutes i always thought you did a great job, and you say this, which is just the fact and it is the chronicle, look at the media today, i say that i am a talk show host. I say that i do opinion, news, and investigative reporting. I do it all. And 89 come i think it is closer to 90 of that a liberal, and you can see it. And you say you need two sources. That is so far gone. Why if you tell the truth like that do you believe that you have committed career suicide . It is obvious, right, because you get targeted. It is the same group of people that are already starting to target me again now. And i expected it. I was joking that i embrace fire and fury, because i know that they will come after me again. Im not the only one. The same people come after you, right . One of them with the pharaoh project, somebody was tweeting today, hannity watch out about lara logan stuff, Michael Calderon who was at the huffington post. I can give you the script. I can tell you who the players are. Joe hagan, brian stelter. Sean humpty dumpty. They are all saying the same thing, they come after cheryl atkinson, you, me. If there were any independent voices out there, any journalists who are not beating the same drum and giving the same talking points, then we pay the price. What is interesting, sean, they cannot take down the substance of what youre saying. They cannot go after the things that matter. So they smear you personally. They go after your integrity. They tear after your reputation as a person and a professional. They will stop at nothing. I am not the only one. And i am just, i am done, right, i am tired of it. And they do not get to write my story anymore. They do not get to speak for me, i want to say loudly and clearly to anybody who is listening, i am not owned. Nobody owns me. Im not owned by the left or the right. Sean i do not even know what your politics are. It does not matter. Im not going to lie to you and pretend that i have no bias, thats not true. Right . That is a part of who we are as human beings. We all have opinions on things. I dont pretend that i dont have opinions. My point about the sources is that i have worked with so many great journalists, i can tell you many of their names, sara carter is one of them. Right . I have so much respect for her work. And they are so many people at 60 minutes, and many other places who i have such Great Respect for. And its because, i did not invent this. Journalists have always needed two independent firsthand sources. That has always been the standard that we work to you, it is not me. Im not alone. Im not the only one. People know. People know that we have flipped. People know that when those are no longer your standards, that that raises questions if you are honest. Sean i would love, i have met your husband who, i dont know if you will like that i have said this. But he really is an american hero. And i know that you guys are raising your kids i mean this sincerely, i hope my bosses at fox find a place for you. I know you want to do more work, and independent. I think it would be a service if you did. I hope that youre telling truth does not end in career suicide for you. We need the fair and honest investigative voices. What is funny, i heard one of your paid people on fox saying, lara sounds like a Job Interview to me. And putting a whole lot of words in my mouth that i never said. Lets just be honest. Look at the interview, hear what i say, and then listen to him. You can see that i did not say that. I dont need to use go back into dishonesty. It is not a Job Interview, right . I dont know if anybody wants to hire me. Nobody is going to own me. Sean i have to run, you keep up the good work. Feeling unsure . What if you had some help .
