FOXNEWSW The Five July 24, 2013

0 trials and what's most important is stay on some of the scandals because we need to have answers. totally agree. >> yeah, that's a problem. seems to me, andrea, the american public is being treated stupidly by the administration. they assume we cannot handle these things, so they figure they can outlast them with every new story. >> and when there's 24 hour news, there's no news. people don't know what's news any more, unfortunately. but you know, it is interesting. a lot of the reporters as you mention in your monologue, they stopped covering it, even though the president wasn't talking about zimmerman every day. that's not their beat. their job was to keep their nose to the grindstone on these stories, many of them quit because i think, greg, except for associated press and fox news scandal that involved them, the media, they were disinterested in these stories from the get go. took months for them to cover benghazi. took months to get involved in the irs story. and begrudgingly. it was one reporter at abc news. taken a toll on them in the poll. >> bob, i remember must have been five or six weeks ago, you were a different person. you were sad. you were broken. weren't you broken? >> i still am! >> but now it is like you've been away for three weeks in acapulco. >> listen, i think the irs scandal and the nsa rose above the zimmerman trial. there's no question about that, and it sinks in. i said this many weeks ago, irs was the one scandal i think would hurt obama and i think it does and is with people, because if you go into it, even before the scandal broke out, ask people in polls what do you think about the irs, they don't think it is fair. they think they were giving favoritism to someone else. did they get a break with zimmerman? yes. i know you're not going to like this, benghazi, i don't think there's anything anyway. holding hearings up there, nothing has come out of it. >> i don't necessarily fault the martin issue, saying that could have been him, helps him. told a lot of democratic voters, maybe you'll disagree, a lot of people gave him the benefit of the doubt, he would have had a racist friend, he would have tolerated remarks and the homophobic remark and done the same. a lot of people said i don't appreciate being called racist. >> i think as a black man, he had to absolutely say it. >> had to say what he said? >> i think he did. >> no, he didn't. >> why that, bob? >> can i ask you the question? do you know the rod eric scott story in new york, a black man who used self defense to kill at the time a 16-year-old white kid he said was charging him, hadn't been hit, but shot him in self defense, and he was acquitted, the black man. what about that one? it is the same exact thing. opposite of trayvon martin. >> they're not following that case, that's the difference. >> so the president follows the press? >> i think it is fair to say every white house in one way or another follows the news cyclee concept. i hope not. >> well, it is a little difficult to get out from underneath the news cycle in an overwhelming story. dana i think would agree, it is difficult to see if -- >> i think to talk about it later, but the initial comment -- >> hold on. what i am saying is the president chose that trayvon martin case to get involved in. the press wasn't implicating the white house or tying it to the white house, calling the white house racist by any means. he is the one brought himself in it. >> i don't think there's a black man in america that doesn't feel the frustration of being tagged and i think he wanted to say it. wanted to try to explain it to the country. >> the racist country -- said people don't have the right to defend themselves, that's unfair to blacks in florida who used stand your ground disproportionately more than whites. why would he do that, make those comments, bob? >> i think he is trying to explain to people, very much like eric holder was, if you're black and male, you're going to be targeted to be stopped for no reason whatsoever. >> you know what the end result, the piece you sent around in daily caller, a princeton professor says her two black children cried and feared zimmerman was coming to kill them once he was acquitted. whose fault is that? that's the parent's fault. you're scaring the hell out of your kids saying this guy will come kill them. >> i had that dream myself. >> saving people from a car crash instead in florida. >> we should get to that at some point, but i don't know much about it. >> ever notice there are a lot of those, lot of people saving people from car crashes. >> i guess they shouldn't stay in the cars sometimes. >> tom cruise, mark harmon, charlie sheen did it. >>. >> theory it was set up by public relations people, stage car crashes so they can save you? >> it is an elaborate staging. you have to get the car to turn over. last question, eric. one thing we didn't talk about, benghazi. you have former head of u.s. forces in africa saying everybody knew it was a terrorist attack. however, that's kind of news, but nobody is reporting it. >> what's it going to take, is there a capitol hill testimony that we can come back to and start talking about it again or is it going to be 2016. >> some evidence. >> some evidence? >> yeah. >> where are the survivors? >> ask hillary who called for the stand down order. i would still like to know. >> where are survivors and why are they asked to sign nondisclosures? why can't they speak? we have heard more about trayvon martin than the deaths of americans in benghazi. >> the speech on friday. >> one is a federal issue, one is a state issue. >> one is way more substantial than we heard from on benghazi in which four people died. i think we're going to stop now. coming up, bill o'reilly, you know that guy on tv, does a show, it is okay, kind of yells a lot, tall. always in some zone. >> who? >> o'reilly, that's it. he takes on president obama and the civil rights movement. >> the thugs that sell hard drugs, no matter what color they are, deserve to be put away for long periods of time. they sell poison, they sell a product that enslaves and kills. they're scum. when was the last time you heard the congressional black caucus say that? how about jackson and sharpton, how about president obama? >> all right, i'll get off your lawn! anyway, hear more from bill when we get back. ♪
