Critics who is this time using a new tactic in court of miers is not going to cause a major is the United States a video presentation at a Coronavirus Press briefing to make his points and the Mainstream Media is in to please Campaign Style video propaganda video whatever you want to call it will discuss your tax c. N. N. Host chris cuomo was diagnosed with corona virus over 2 weeks ago and has been doing his show from his basement where he says hes in quarantine but was he out and about on Easter Sunday did the u. S. Surgeon general use improper language while warning africanamericans to be more careful in avoiding the coronavirus and do it for big mouth and top at least one member of the president seems to think so and wait until you hear what bill oreilly said about those who have died during this pandemic. Im Steve Malzberg lets see the press. Oh you know. Yet. This past week President Trump did something it one of his Coronavirus Pressers that ive never seen done by a president or rarely by a politician he decided he was going to answer back to his critics who he believes have been misrepresenting whats been going on his critics specifically being in the media so what he did was he interrupted the press conference or before it really got started and he used video clips to make his case video clips using them in much the same way we do to make our case i want you to watch and some day hopefully in 5 years when im not here those papers are all going out of business because nobodys going to want to read them but now they like them because they write about me now with that i have a couple of interesting we have a few clips that were just going to put up what could turn the lights a little bit lower i think youll find him interesting he then ran several short labeled clips to make his point. People should be more concerned right now with the flu in this country people are concerned about the virus because theyre hearing a lot of news about it right now but the reality is comparing it to the flu for example its not even close to being at that stage how worried should americans be about coronavirus coronaviruses not to cause a major hissing United States and the presentation continued with this. Well weve asked them to accelerate whatever theyre doing in terms of the vaccine we will be suspending travel from europe to the United States for the next 30 days and as you all might expect the Mainstream Media werent too happy with the whole thing one thing we should point out about the video which looks straight out of beijing or pyongyang i mean there were white house officials who were working on that video this afternoon so that video Campaign Style video propaganda video whatever you want to call it was paid for with your tax dollars and well have more on this coming up in just a few minutes now every once in a while im amazed i see real journalism on t. V. While watching the news real journalism and here is some of it from c. B. S. This morning looking back do you wish you had close things down sooner if you have regrets and would that have lowered the death toll. Yeah i think its the exact opposite factually i dont think youll find another state that moved faster than new york but the question is not whether you move swiftly just in your mind i know this is heavy this weighs heavily on your conscience do you wish and retrospect with hindsight being 2020 that you had close things down sooner former c. D. C. Director tom frieden said 80 percent reduction in face allergies if the closure it comes just a week or 2 earlier so im asking you for a bit of reflection very rare rare but impressive now on the complete opposite end of the spectrum very unimpressive is that before an array from the mouth of former fox news Host Bill Oreilly who was on the sean hannity radio show and he said this about the poor people who have passed away who have died from coronavirus are you sitting down the projections that you spent your new down to 60000 i dont think it will be that high 13000 now in the usa many people who are dying but here and around the world were on their last legs anyway and i dont want to. Sound callous about what youre going to get a hold on youre going to hear that i mean a simple man tells the truth mr rileys arrogance and pomposity and ignorance apparently know no bounds. And joining me now to discuss some items on the appetizer and more is syndicated columnist with the Washington Post Writers Group Ruben Navarette hello my old friend welcome aboard good to be with you my friend good to see you steve. Ok so lets start with the what something that i address in my appetizer the president joe video the presentation at the press conference heres a little different take than the one that we heard from c. N. N. The president has been living for 3 years with what networks and c. N. N. And then s. M. B. Saying who do nothing but call him names 247 he has a right at some point to defend himself and point to the fact that their propaganda is a lie and the best way to do that is with their own words now i personally could not agree more with the judge jeanine there whats your take ruben. But steve unlike you im a never trump or i dont support the president did not support the president but the reason ive been critical of the media is because you have been journalist ramos 30 years now and it it really saddens and disheartens me to see the the fact that all the rules have gone out the window as the press and the media make it their Daily Mission to try to subvert this president and get him out of office and so to this case with this video i didnt think it was propaganda at all what bothered the media was that he was feeding their words back to the him but to them they had said basically you made a mistake by not taking this virus seriously so he said oh yeah let me show you who else wasnt taking this virus seriously the beginning you point the finger back at the media so its not propaganda thats just truth and guess what steve doesnt swallow those folks who push that narrative anti trump narrative dont like swallowing the truth when thrown back in their face. I mean they were outraged they called them on a hinge which they call them before and and you know this is the worst ive seen him and you know how dare he do this but youre absolutely right he also went on to play clips from the governors praising him and ate that one clip where he showed what he had done because they said he didnt do enough you know but im glad glad glad i like wind up when we agree i dont know and we may agree on this one as well ruben chris cuomo c. N. N. I wish him well when he announced a couple of weeks ago and im glad i did that he had tested positive for the coronavirus but he made a comment on is sirius x. M. Radio show les it. Well. I dont like what i do professionally ive decided i want some. Loser fat tire biker. To be able to pull over and get in my face and in my space. And talk to me. I dont want here. Now he walked it all back i didnt say it i didnt mean it i mean talk about tale of the tape we just heard it but heres the thing the biker he may be referring to is this guy he claims he was threatened by cuomo on Easter Sunday while cuomo was out of his home at a different home that hes developing in the same area with this family now ruben hes been doing a show from the basement i thought he was sick even after this happened and this gentleman filed a complaint for a threat against cuomo the governor came on his show his brother and stated again oh youve been in the basement for 2 straight weeks you havent left the basement for 2 straight weeks are we being hoodwinked here i mean he must have the virus but what is he doing that out allegedly without a mask going to confront some guy on a bike who yelled out of whats going on here and now unfortunately his wife his wife has the virus to. Right exactly so you got to impact the story its you know theres a couple things going on here and i think he does have the virus i think it has been really bad violently bad for him and at some times and i think its terrible that his wife now has been in fact that i dont chris cuomo for a while hes always been good to me i think he had a moment of clarity and honesty when he said i dont like what i do i dont find it fulfilling guess what steve i think that could be applied to cable news host to the evening host across the board i think what theyre talking about Tucker Carlson or don lemon or whatever theyre not practicing journalism theyre doing entertainment theyre playing gotcha theyre throwing red meat to their crowd the great thing about being don lemon on the left or Tucker Carlson on the right is you only have to use half your brain either these guys only have to use half their brain the right or left town and thats whats allowed on so i think that risk cuomo spoke the truth by saying what you and i know which is whats going on in the evening on these cable shows is not journalism its become this cheap pandering to red or blue and so he got it right i think in that regard in terms of the bike guy the guy on the bike i mean you know ive been accosted in public by people that people have to have the stand this seemed very quickly you and i and chris cuomo and the rest were public figures but were not public property ok and i dont like it when Tucker Carlson gets called out at a country club and virginia with his family i dont like it when chris cuomo gets called out by some guy on a bike says hey you got to be inside your brothers the governor again were public figures not public property. Yeah ok i thought i agree with what you said there on the last part however 1st of all comparing don lemon to talk think Tucker Carlson is a genius i think don lemon is one of the bounce challenged people on t. V. I dont compare them its like not even apples and oranges its like ants and elephants it might it might might mean you but heres a guy who are you thinking is living over milk millions of dollars a year say you know what he said was he hates his job because he would like. Be able to tell that biker to go after himself i mean thats theres something wrong with that and if youre saying youre sick with the virus what do you do without him i think i would yell at him to anybody hey neighbor you got the virus what the heck you do it outside but thats thats thats it very quickly joe biden desart theres accusations of Sexual Assault against him from a former Senate Staffer if the tower read it took 2 weeks before the media even address it and then they all addressed it once a couple of last sunday i believe it was New York Times Washington Post a. P. N. B. C. News and the New York Times editor did an interview with his own media writer and admitted it in berkeley i believe that the campaign he said didnt like a certain sentence that looked bad for joe so they took that say edited that sentence the biden camp down got to see the story before it went out to the press what is this quick yeah its a way that is total crap this is not journalism you dont send up stories out of preclearance on either the red or the blue the New York Times dropped the ball here but they werent the only ones the press has one mission here protect joe biden at all costs prop him up and get him across the finish line so you can be donald trump thats all they care about and this was really a disgusting example of that shame on the New York Times for count toweling to the Biden Campaign you know sending their story over her reclear ins and then shame on them for taking that lying out simply because the campaign wanted it out we ought to do journalism and not do dictation and thats on journalism. Ruben its been a pleasure we cant wait to have you back thank you so much my friend. Ok folks we hope that this is piqued your appetite and i want you to stay right where you are because the main course is coming up right after this. Kind of Economic Growth rate if theres going to be one can be expected through the pandemic is going to ask for comments the pin jimmy changed account to mean is there any chance of returning to pretend any condition. Im not for decapitating anybody but i am for dick capitalizing all the wall street bankers by shifting the center of gravity of money from the dollar and fear to bit coin and thats perfectly within our purview went to our scope as global citizens who wish Justice Justice through free competition and hard money thats the only justice stud matter that sustainable thats real that doesnt rely on politicians. And welcome back to the press like many other industries some sections of the news media have been hit very very heart economically speaking by the coronavirus now theres even a push by some Democratic Senators to bail out struggling outlets arties that touches me to see her and she has more of the details the tajura. Yes steve while there is certainly a demand for news at this Time Companies simply arent buying ads like they used to but isnt really the answer. There is no question this pandemic caused by the kobe 1000 outbreak has shaken the economy as businesses have been forced to close and stay at home orders were issued last month and 17000000 americans found themselves out of work or with some type of pay cut well places like hair salons and restaurants may come to mind the news industry is also feeling a massive blow and its not because people arent tuning in or reading they are but the revenue normally generated from advertisers simply isnt coming in so in turn more than 20000. 00 employees at various News Companies have been laid off or load or had their pay reduced as a result of the crown of virus the guardian was forced to pirlo 100. 00 not Editorial Staff the Financial Times also expected to announce a 10 percent pay cut for dozens of senior staff to spite having paid subscribers to the site the fresno bee reportedly for allowing 115. 00 employees and its advertising departments in 30 newspapers across the country roughly 4 percent of the workforce are taking kopechne 18 leave for 90 days Los Angeles Times announcing pay cuts for Senior Management and nonunion workers as according to its Parent Company the pandemic has nearly eliminated their ad revenue president of the california times chris r. Gentry saying quote well weve made significant progress in growing our digital Subscriber Base and developing other sources of revenue it is not yet enough to offset the losses the economy is in crisis and its become clear that we need to make some difficult changes in order to meet this challenge other big names like buzz feed vox media the Hollywood Reporter good net Sports Illustrated and vice media to name a few are also laying off employees and cutting pay and those inflight magazines you see on the airplanes are also going away for the time being deltas sky magazine laid off its 16 employees and Alaska Airlines has canceled the. And may issue of alaska beyond magazine in the meantime 1000 democratic senator said in a letter to Majority Leader Mitch Mcconnell asking for future krone virus stimulus package to help fund local journalism the letter stating local news is in a state of crisis thats only been exacerbated by the coated 19 pandemic. And before the chrono virus was a thing we already knew the news industry at large was in for a big change according to the Pew Research Center Newsroom Employment declined 25 percent in 2008 to 2018 a year before the qana virus even hit china where it reportedly originated steve. Yeah you know natasha as you pointed out and as that letter itself points out for the Democratic Senators the local News Business has been suffering in some areas more than others for a long time so if they get a bailout its really going to prop up what many consider to be a dying industry anyway. Yeah steve as Technology Evolves the news industry especially newspaper another print Companies Like you said have been struggling for some time so instead of trying to save a failing industry hopefully account volved and improve you know maybe not so biased who knows steve it might be worth a.
