Attacks on the press and calling the journalists of the united states of america fake news and elevating pro-trump blogs as if theyre equivalent to the "washington post" or nbc news or something in the press briefing. weve all been watching that is a media business story. clearly in terms of this story about the context with the russian government were seeing the "new york times" and the "washington post" and the "wall street journal" and nbc and cnn and all these other outlets do good work in t...

Russia during the campaign? >> will you comment on the report with your senior adviser over suspected russian operatives during the campaign? >> this seems to have been the trend all week. on monday, standing by side the canadian prime minister, he called on outlets favorable to the white house. >> to an extent, it happened in the past. never like this. they have been calling on the ap and abc and whatnot. at a certain point, have to face the music. >> it could help the story go away if he answe...

Questions asked at that news conference did not mention general flynn. >> shannon: you hear acosta talk about the christian broadcasting network, david brodie who has done a lot of articles with him. a costa talked about that like in a condescending tone about it. brodie as a piece out today where i did ask about flynn. it is not as if i wont ask the news of the day. did they think i would read a bible verse? these arent organizations that dont do news. >> david brodie is a good reporter and he ...

A conservative one and a wrong one. "the new york times" piece notes that the traditional media focused on what led to flynns downfall. misleading mike pence about russian transmissions. the more right-leaning outlets focused on the leaks from washington that had put pressure on flynn to step aside and whether these leaks were intended to damage president trump. what do you think? depending on where you get your news, flynn was either held accountable or he was a victim. on a certain fair and ba...

Positions himself when it comes to military action or responding to obvious threats. were going to get into that with dr. sebastian thorpe. he joins us right now from the white house. my only take on this and we talked over the years, doctor, be fair. just get the other point of view out there. i can see there were some moments where they were trying and rightfully so to pin the president down on how he would respond to the provocative developments on the north koreans and to try to get an answe...

Think the american public that they didnt get asked. >> no. and all it does is feed suspicion of cahoots and things like that. thats not good for anybody. not good for those journalistics outlets. plenty of them are good journalists. but they have a specific beat. they are almost being use by the trump white house. they know they have a specific beat and they have a specific readership and they know they are going to stick to topics that their readership cares about. but thats not serving the ge...

Process, whether it be through the intelligence committee or independent commission because the -- in an ideal world these leaks or these whistle-blowers would be coming to the investigatory body rather than leaking only to the press. >> and that -- to me i feel like thats the crux of the matter right now. weve all been worried about the new administration and their attacks on the press and calling the journalists of the united states of america fake news and elevating pro-trump blogs as if they...

About the context with the russian government were seeing the "new york times" and the "washington post" and the "wall street journal" and nbc and cnn and all these other outlets do good work in terms of getting this information to the public. my question remains whether or not we should expect this to continue to be just a journalistic enterprise or whether there will be any part of the u.s. government that gets to the bottom of this that does the investigatory work and that ultimately brings p...

Questions to conservative outlets in these press conferences and theyre not asking the questions of the day, the questions that are challenging for him, around flynn, around russia. i think they think they are -- they are certainly shielding him, but in the long run hes at some point got to answer these questions and this notion that he can just talk about it on twitter and thats enough for him to address it, i think its going to be hard to sustain that. and guess whats going to happen? theyre g...

They are trying disrupts his presidency. ainsley: not just somebody. accord ing to "the washington post. there were nine leakers. i was reading another article today in daily caller. brian: that shouldnt be hard to find. ainsley: the number is substantial. why cant they find out who these leakers are. i know reporters dont have to give up sources. but you would think they would be able to find out who leakers are. brian: donald trump taking on the intelligence community how disappointed. clapper...
