Romney Vs News Today

Capitalism has made the u.s.a. the most powerful nation on earth. its the primary reason that millions of people all over the world are desperate to come here. but apparently some who support president obama dont much like capitalism. >> when mitt romney was talking about harvesting and maximizing profits, what he was really talking about is a technique of squeezing payrolls. i mean payrolls are about 70% of the cost structure of most companies. and the easiest way of harvesting products that is...

Moving forward. it looked like up to this point, there had been somewhat balanced coverage of romney vs. obama. i say somewhat compared to 2008. moving forward, does this suggest that we might see a replay of 2008 and how the campaigns are covered? >> yeah, i think so. i think one thing to remember as i document in my book, the most important fact to know about media bias is you poll mainstream journalists, take a typical newsroom and ask who they vote for in the last election, the answer is 93%...

This about the atmosphere that i recall at abc news, it is not surprising to me that join kerrys wealth and the way he lived did not occasion much coverage or interest from the news media in 2004 just as the kennedy wealth never really occasioned any unfavorable references when the kennedy family was front and center in american political life. its just the democrats with money look different to reporters in the mainstream media than republicans with money do. theres some taint that attaches in ...

After i had gone but i will say this about the atmosphere that i recall at abc news, it is not surprising to me that join kerrys wealth and the way he lived did not occasion much coverage or interest from the news media in 2004 just as the kennedy wealth never really occasioned any unfavorable references when the kennedy family was front and center in american political life. its just the democrats with money look different to reporters in the mainstream media than republicans with money do. the...

This is romney vs. gingrich, see if you can figure out something else. >> president reagan. >> gingrich exaggerates dropping reagans name 50 times but in his diaries, reagan mentioned gingrich only once. reagan criticized gingrich saying newts ideas "would cripple our defense program." reagan rejected newts ideas on leadership -- >> all right, michael? would that be the kind of stuff you would have researched and found out? >> sure, you would go back and look at those instances where he was name...

Into law in massachusetts. >> watch very closely. he has been all but counted out. he is ramping up like he exntses to be around for a long time, harris. he has got the money to do it. >> harris: what does this say about how republicans in washington see the choice between romney vs. gingrich. >> its pretty remarkable. republicans have been desperate to find alternative to romney and gingrich has emerged at the right time to make a serious challenge. now republicans who served with him in congre...

With job creation and well know that in october of 2012. >> are you surprised by what youre seeing in the polls today with regard to whats happening in iowa and sort of the general sense there about the republicans and how they would do, gingrich vs. obama versus romney vs. obama? >> the thing to keep your eye on in any horse race contest against obama is where president obama is. not where the others are. hes in the 40s in approval rating and he cant seem to crack 50%. incumbent president is re...

Fundraising and more attention since this happened. he smartly attacked the press. the narrative has changed for him. hes uncomfortable. he doesnt want to talk about in more. much like rick perry with the debates. now cain doesnt want to do this any more. he understan s the narrative stands to change from 9-9-9 to women who told him no-no-no. i dont think he likes that. >> lets look to the broader picture. next fall, one year from election day. when you look at some of the polling. rasmussen has...

candidates? erin burnett makes the leap from cnbc to cnn. whats her take on coverage of the ailing economy and how will her new show compete in an opinionated landscape? and news outlets cant get enough of the trial of michael jacksons doctor and others cant care less. well have a diagnosis. im howard kurtz, and this is "reliable sources." maybe the governor of new jersey will jump in and completely shake up the presidential race, or maybe the chris christie flirtation will turn ou...
