Live on every channel. Trying to figure out whats going on so it was live and entire room thousands turn at once and start booing at me screaming in person saying the things they were saying online but saying them to my face, and it was nerve wrecking, my phone again starts going off like crazy. Not just people on twirts but my colleagues and my bosses and my mom saying what in the world is happening . Because shes watching it on television are you safe are you okay shes concerned. But i put my put my phone off i put it down over here because i have a job to do hes making a major announcement. How do you keep doing that job when that kind of attention ive learned at this point because hes gone of a me so many times i learned at this point in order to defuse the situation is smile and you wave. So i did that i smited and i waved at this angry crowd and they got bore ed and turned around. How were you personally angry at donald trump . Himself or in the moment you let it go because you have a job to do. Especially on that night. You let it go. You have a job to do thats what i kept doing. Im not a part of the story let it go i was frustrated by it i didnt want to be a part of the story i did not want Chris Matthews to ask it two seconds later which he did it is true these are not stories told live on msnbc put them in volume before we go to speaking of doing her job, im i love the fact that you were oneofthe first people in america to know about the access Hollywood Tape. [laughter] the grab them by the tame. Much more interesting today than it was a year ago. A fascinating chapter in your story, and i love the journalistic process of having to get comment from the Trump Campaign. So when youre a journalist you finds something out o and go to the person who is who is relevant to what you found out you say what do you think about this . But its a little different. A slight slightly more direct booking plug yes this book is about the campaign but when you get from it is behind the scenes look pulled by curtain so see what it is like and what your lives are like and Campaign Like behind the scene and treat reporters what are things that they said that may have been appropriate or not. And then in these weird history making moments, what is it like to have to put Something Like that on television . And this was odd because this is a tape that was language that you cant put on tv. Of a if president ial candidate bragging it seems about being able to assault women. And they let you do it because youre a star and so i see the tape i exclaim loudly in executive office where im being shown it. Oh, my god did donald trump say you can grab them by the but i said the word in the moment. And my boss looks at me shes is like yes he did. We need the campaign to comment on it. Weern going to put it on tv right after you get that comment so get a comment write a script, and lets get it on television. And so i email hope and jason and email is picks and jason miller who were Communication Team on the the Trump Campaign and email word for word is in the book. And its Something Like you know, mr. Trump said that you can grab them by the and he also talked about f king a married woman with and word for word things did you have a comment [laughter] they did not respond. [laughter] but then i have to figure out how to put all of these rated r things into pg13 format for daytime cable news tv. And so i think i i said grab them by the p word sexual advances which is totally not fair to sexual advances. [laughter] yeah, and i mean its fascinating looking back the on it seems if anything was going to break this campaign this would the whole place went silent, dark Kellyanne Conway canceledded tv appearances at the time was unheard of. [laughter] but yeah test interesting to look back on it now especially considering what is happening in the mean to campaign, and how the president is weighing in on al franken talking about a tape that is ignoring fact that he has his own anyway questions [laughter] yes or there are microphones in the center and we can assist with questions to get right to yours. But we since we doapght have a lot of time the question not statements. [laughter] okay. First question is how would you rate the job that they gentleman had done. Were these tough enough . It could have tougher to be honest, and second question is, many of Donald Trumps most of Donald Trumps policy adversely Effect People who voted for him. Do you think that those people will maybe buy knicks so they shouldnt come to realization that they voted for someone that is doing them in. You know, i dont know. Youre right some of the policies that hes spoken about or enacted the deregulation or the rollback of regulation would potentially affect them in a negative way when it comes to u. S. Epa standards. The gutting of obamacare is going to affect a lot of people. This tax plan could potentially raise the taxes of the lower class and palace down the line that might happen, though, until the last election cycle for those roll backs to sees we dont have that full bill voted on yet so it could change. You know i dont know, i mean, it depends on job creation do people, do they have jobs is the job better than the jobs they have before . Do they want to continue giving him a four more years for another chance to try to push things through is this i dont know. Depends. I wanted to thank you for being here i admired your coverage and hope you keep at it and i wanted to ask how in the world u do you put up with these comments from the other side when you offer them to try to give a balance and you know its nonsense. How can you do any better how can therk do any better in the future . I have to reject the premise the other side is not we you have to think about reporters and journalists and its a good rear were not out to convince anybody how to vote its not our job to convince trump voters not to votes for him again and democrats to vote for democrats but its our job to give you all of the information that that is out there to fact check where we need to con tech churlize and give you everything you immediate to need to make the decision that you want to make. So when people dont have facts behind them i try to push back regardless of whether or not theyre a democrat or a republican its tough right now, though, because theres a lot of people have a lot of feel like they have a lot of license to just say fake news. When they decide they dont like something or theres a fact that they dont like and this is really problematic because it allows people to just decide that anything they dont want to hear they dont have to hear and they dont have to believe and that is going to o i think negatively affect all of us in the future. So my plea to all of you and thank you for asking this so i can give my plea is to do your best. To police your facebook feeds your twitter feeds whatever social media you use, and to be very critical when you look at certain articles and make sure that youre getting Accurate Information and you havent just reading the things that you want to hear. And that you do take a moment to hear other side as well and have conversations with people maybe they didnt vote the same way you did but better to o understand everyone and cotom place where we can talk again. And accept to share facts again so we can make better decisions or good decisions in the future. You dont disagree with with something is in your news youre doing it wrong it should be it shouldnt be comfortable. Thank you. Sometimes i watch daily press and meetings with sarah and i want to get up and strangle her so i would like to know how you guys [laughter] dont get up and strangle her. First of all thats illegal and thats one of the reasons so white house has been that is in a place where a press secretary will try to spin news in their favor. Thats just the way things are done. This is i think taking it to a third degree. There are times where [applause] questions arent answered or theyre just ill get back to you and never gets back to you and asking about donald trump or the republicans or shes denying things that he has said. So yeah, its extraordinarily extraordinary frustrating. I wonder how valuable those briefings are. Personally. Thank you. Were in the same boat then. [laughter] i think every time somebody spins its not great for anybody. I believe the no spin zone o is available hi. So im a journalist student and i read your book when it first kale out and you mention you never have a background in political journalism but stood in as a weather girl that help yods cover donald trump better because you didnt have that background in that. But how do you feel that battle you know, swamp sort of affected the coverage of donald trump and why people accept his victory . [inaudible conversations] i worked for the Weather Channel i chased tornadoes. I was never allowed to do weather because i dont understand the meteorology but i covered news with the weather and before that a local News Reporter and foreign correspondent. I think that it was beneficial going to 016 because i was able to see with fresh eyes. The campaign and the support that he was getting and the enthusiasm he received was out all of the baggage of these are the way things have always been done and he cant possibly survive this because so and so didnt survive this. Its it was beneficial. I think that is partially what happened during 2016 and some of my most revered colleagues who are political people who do live in d. C. Have admit haded such saying you know part of the reason we didnt see donald trump coming is because we believed everything all of our hype. Everything that we had seen come before in washington with. And how important it is to get out there and on bonn the road and not just rely on pollses actually talk to people and see something smell something feel something, be inside those rallies and get a sense of the momentum and the movement. So thats also part of the reason why i didnt go to d. C. Myself there was a few things. He was one of them. But one of the other one was that i just think it is better to to talk about it from the outside. And to try and maintain the fresh eyes i had in 2016. So thank you. Thank you. Also congratulations on your wedding. Thank you. [applause] hl low im marsha and its a pleasure to meet you ive been watching you since you started and great to see you and evolved into a wonderful News Reporter. Thank you very much. Go back to sunday, november 6th. Okay. That morning on all of the news stations everyone was reporting that it was Hillary Hillarys to lose. She it was hillarys to lose and her percentage of her winning were across the board. 60, 70, 80 all the way up to one Agency Reporter said 98 . What happened . To watch nbc what happened . What happened . I think she wrote a book called what happened. [laughter] doesnt tell enough. The polls were wrong they were want totally wrong but they were just wrong enough to to lose or not lose the election but about miscall the election. I believe it was number six might have been the day before that james comey said the investigation the investigation through email was done. I was talking to a senior clinton aid who said that they felt that was worst thing that could have happened because it brought the email not the reopening which they didnt like either. But then the closing because instead of bringing closure to that, it brought it back up again. And it made people remember it because remember the access Hollywood Tape was really bad for trump and really, really, really bad for trump and the only thing that kind of got him out of that hole after 50 former and current republican lawmakers were saying i wouldnt vote for was reopening of the emails and what that did and im not saying that was the nail on coffin for clinton but what that did was it enabled moderate republicans or o republicans on fence or republicans who did not want to vote for donald trump saying im voting for hill because i cant vote for somebody who might be on federal investigation. Which is ironic. But we didnt know at time that donald trump was under invest because if fbi didnt inform anybody and theres questions about the double standard for there. So the polls were wrong just enough, and i think that theres a bunch and Clinton Family didnt go to michigan and probably should have gone to michigan and department make sure their blue wall was going to stand the combny investigation didnt help. What was going on with russia we still dont though. I think were still a bit away from figuring out exactly what happened on november th and why why donald trump ultimately won. But cant discount enthusiasm that he had people just loved him. Thank you. Thank you. Good things must come to an end im so sorry because this conversation is absolutely very engaging and inspiring. Thank you thank you katy. Thank you tony please buy the book. Please buy the book. [laughter] sorry about that. [applause] thank you very much.
