there is a line to be challenging and challenge facts. and then be cheering for them not to do well or appear like you are on one side. and clearly, the coverage of the campaign we saw elements of that. and opinion writing on front pages, and very aggressive coverage. so they have the upper hand right now, the trump administration, and we ll see where it goes. howie: bret baier, good to see you. next on mediabuzz, i ll tangle with corey lewandowski in just a moment. [vo] quickbooks introduces rodney.
you think he would be celebrating his inauguration this weekend? i m not so sure about that. but i am happy about the way thing turned out. howie: corey lewandowski, great to see you. after the break. wall-to-wall coverage on some cable news channels on the women s protests around the country. we ll take a look.
and on fox news they feel the coverage is more fair. howie: meant broadcast networks, more than twice as much as msnbc and cnn combined. bret baier with more on anchoring the inauguration.
trump settled that in a fox and friends interview. the press briefing room, are you going to move it? we ll move it to a larger room and the press went crazy. but some people in the press will not be able to get in. howie: did the media win that skirmish? i don t think the outcome is clear yet. i think the trump administration as kellyanne conway said this morning wants to change the terms of the relationship between the press and the president. clearly there is a war going on between the press and trump. we can argue all day who started it, who fault it. i don t know anyone right now who can say honestly that the press is going to fairly cover this president. it seems to me they have set themselves up as the edge any of trump. i read their twitter feeds. i saw the inaugural coverage. it doesn t seem fair to me.
hate and divisiveness for hope, love and unity. journalists on air described the marches being that way. it s ignoring these mars included a variety of issues messages that were violent and vulgar. howie: she dropped the f bomb on cnn. lawrence o donnell tweeted why should the networks protect the public against word we all use. we are supposed to [bleep] those words out. howie: it s hard when you don t have a script and it s live coverage. what happened yesterday was unusual. it was the day after the inauguration. it exceeded expectations of what the numbers were suppose to be. i think a lot of the coverage was quite gauzy.
