the precedent for two options, one is pushing off the election and having republican leaders decide that they don t want to seat somebody who was elected is very danger no matter what party you re talking about here. chris: we asked you for questions to the panel, we got this from michael, has the mainstream media coverage been fair or has moore been unfairly prosecuted in the court of public opinion without the benefit of careful examination and due process? chuck, you work for the washington post which broke the story, how to you answer, michael? the best answer is to look at reaction to number of republican senator who is are not who you think of people uncritically read the washington post, resaw richard shelby, bill cassidy has been mentioned. they regard the story as or the information in the story as very credible information. in fact, subsequent to the post story, other news organizations have gone and asked the women the questions and they ve all repeated what they sai
rob: there appears to be a good deal of smoke in this story but no fire at this point but let s talk about the simple fact there has always been a lot of smoke with the trump russia collusion and no fire either. when this was speculation on trump and russia the mainstream media went wild, tons of coverage for the past year. now the same situation with hillary clinton let me show you the mainstream media coverage of this story from last night and it is pretty fair on cnn, 30 minutes and 20 seconds, not bad, 2 minutes and 55 seconds by msnbc compared to hours of coverage they gave to trump and russia, abc, cbs and nbc still not sold on it after talking about speculation of trump and russia for the past year, it was all we heard. now that it flipped the other way you see the disparity. that is what we talk about with general media bias. here is jason chaffetz talking about the same thing. they have got to get the
mainstream media coverage for months. doug mckelway looks at where we are. no sense of decency, sir? russian collusion in american politics is as old as the cold war. in june 2016, democratic national committee announced its service had been hacked. on july 22, wikileaks began publishing 20,000 hacked dnc emails, embarrassing the party and its candidate, hillary clinton. later, candidate donald trump fueled the fire, in effect asking russia to spy on his democratic opponents. russia, if you are listening, i hope you re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing. and narrative began taking shape that trump and his allies had colluded with russia to influence the election and defeat hillary clinton. it would not only be a serious crime. it would also represent one of
absolutely hysterical. harris: i can tell you what is going to happen while the president of the united states is in paris and he ll be meeting with the new president of france, macron and will cover it live when it happens. meanwhile, is there a double standard in mainstream media coverage of the russia controversy? are you laughing? the accusations from team trump that may hold weight. and back in the fray, or president obama and hillary clinton are rallying democrats. will it help or hurt? we ll talk about it. and we can t wait to make more for you online. we ll pop up with foxnews.com/outnumbered. click on the overtime tab. you can also log onto facebook facebook.com/outnumberedfnc. we do overtime people and we tweet all who the show. tweet tweet little bertie.
plotting to kill muslims in upstate new york. very little mainstream media coverage. a man was sentenced to 30 years to life. why? for plotting to kill muslims in america. in canada in january, a man walks into a mosque and kills six people. i hope it s not an act of terror attack. i would not be surprised at all looking at the rhetoric, anti-muslim rhetoric, the plot here to slaughter muslims. i hope the media here will cover it more. guard against all threats. you talked about the media s role in raising awareness of these situations. what else can we as a society, do, do you think, to deescalate the animosity and try to better understand each other? well, i think frankly the good job in what they do. they repted the story. i think you have sensational
