Were talking about the fox hosts, we are talking about some of these blogs. there are conservative outlets, "the weekly standard" for example, has done some excellent reporting. it is not every conservative. >> i want to be clear. this is true. you have people at the weekly standard, the washington examiner, phil klein is a good health care reporter and all of these people are writing about it. if you go to their web sites, it is not leading, it is not dominating. i will say i lived through this...

To conservative citizens, just random people who know a lot about obamacare. they have critiques of it that are quite sophisticated and have thought a lot about it and really, you know, dislike it, and here it is, the moment, the crowning achievement, victory, at the precipice of the grand, epic win, and hes silent. it is so fascinating. jennifer, i want to you ask as someone who sort of comes from the world of conservatism, as an entity, like what is that about? >> i think it is two things. one...

That wasnt entirely wrong. on the day obamacare revision was yanked. some media conservatives and other outlets are down playing the setback. while the was embarrassing for republicans, we still dont know if the bill is dead or just on the critical list.

Weekend in which mr. trump appears to pummel a cnn head which is the logo. tom, where do we know about where this video originated on the web? >> jim, the white house will not say where the president got the video, but a senior white house official said today it was not from reddit, which is a popular internet messaging board. the problem is we and other major outlets cannot find any evidence of it existing anywhere but reddit before the president picked it up. why does that matter? because if h...

And other people and outlets how did it get from this person to the presidents twitter feed? we dont know the answer to that. there say lot of clues online about how this thing started but now how it reached the presidents desk. this is not the first time we have seen some sort of meme from the swamps of the internet make its way to the presidents twitter feed. >> a question of the on camera briefings theyll be holding in the briefing room over the next few weeks. im saying that facetiously. the...

Thats something we should all be celebrating. so wheres paul ryan? wheres mitch mcconnell? are gop leaders going to speak up about these attacks against the media? like i said, right now at cnn, earlier it was "the washington post" and the new york times. its been other networks, its been other outlets. this president continues to demean the media, are gop leaders going to support him? i want you to know we reached out to the white house earlier this week to invite a spokesperson onto the progra...

Fred. you can make the case its a sign of strength. the president is standing up to bullies in the media, being tough. seen those comments on social media. the flip side, acting very weak. not promoting policy objectives. hes not trying to lobby to get this health care bill through congress. instead, just beating up on the media. today its cnn. who knows who it will be tomorrow. because that makes fans feel good about him, appreciate it and enjoy it. creating a show, creating drama. to me, it lo...

Challenge him trying to build up outlets that promote him. weve seen a lot of reporting from cnn and abc, nbc, cbs and lots of outlets doing great reporting both positive and skeptical about this administration, trying to find out whats going on. thats where weve seen him continue to startitarget. thinking about this holiday weekend, think of past presidents practically -- say confidently, every president had gripes about the media. back to the days of pamphlets in the 1700s. we havent seen a pr...
