What is the greatest problem facing this country today . Everybody complains too much. Dispute what are we going to do about these babies . With them into shape. Make america tough again. Bill had cut must be watters down at the daytona 500. Caution, you are about to enter the no spin zone. Ban teen right now. Dash the factor begins right now. Hi, i am bill oreilly. Thanks for watching us tonight. War between President Trump and the press. That is a subject of this evening talking points memo. Critical mass has been reached as President Trump is denying access to certain news organizations he believes are to get the president. Also, and an act of defiance, the president announced he will not show up to this years white house Correspondents Dinner in april. He does, however, want everybody to have a good time. If this political controversy were a legal case, and if i were the judge, i would have to recuse myself. That is because for the past 20 years, i watch the liberal media in america scorch the Fox News Channel and the people who work here, including me. The attacks are personal, relentless, and often dishonest. Just last week come after alan colmes passed to my far left smear web site vilified hia calculated pond for this network. Does it get any worse than that . No, it does not. There is no question that if the National Media does not like your politics, it will try to hurt you. Even if you are deceased. Anyone denying that is a deceiver. Of course, the Trump Administration is well aware of this. It knows the media is desperately trying to link the Trump Campaign to russia and will use Anonymous Sources to drive that narrative in the hope the election will be perceived as invalid. By the way, we do not, do not use Anonymous Sources here. I have been told plenty bad stuff about Hillary Clinton and donald trump. But without attribution, it is not going to be reported. The president also understands that certain news organizations despise him to the point that employees actually fear for their jobs if they say positive things about him. Many leftwing editors and executives believe mr. Trumps positions on illegal immigration, muslim terrorism, abortion, crime, just about every other issue, to find the president a dangerous man. Who must be destroyed. For anyone supporting him, cannot be tolerated. There will be no detente. The gulf is too wide. It will be one nasty media competition after another until the president leaves office. Now, it is difficult to see how this awful situation benefits anyone. The country is not helped by all the acrimony. Talking points believes the president has a right to defend himself, but should do so using facts. If a report is wrong, fake news, have sean spicer reputed in detail. If access is denied to surgeon press organizations, again, specifically spell out why. If you dont, you come off as petulant. Facts will always win the debate. Always. As we proven this Program Every night. As for the Correspondents Dinner, the president is wise for not going. Like him or not, he is not big on hypocrisy. Yakking it up with an industry that obviously wants to hurt him would be bizarre. So, son of Vice President and ended nice donation to the dinner Scholarship Fund that helps students. The cold fact is, the president ial election of 2016 defined the free press in america. He is actively, actively leftwing, not objective. Now, things have become so much worse than just ideology. Now, it is war. That is the memo. Lets have some reaction. With this in new york city, joe concha, merrill brown. Where am i going wrong here, professor brown . Because you were going wrong because you are a lengthy meeting into one little ball. It is many things. The media is a national review, the weekly standard, boston media, cbs, msnbc. They are divergent points of view on each one of those publications, and they cover the president of the administration differently. Bill there is a diversion point of view on msnbc. Differed from the point of view on this network. Bill for sure. If you add up all that different news organizations on a national basis, what percentage of people working for the news organizations would you consider liberal . An overwhelming percentage. Bill you are not honest man. Overwhelming. When you have overwhelmingly won ideology, then, you have a president who is unacceptable to them come up with that word be accurate . Donald trump is unacceptable to the new york times, the l. A. Times, washington post, because he is not, he does not have the gravitas for the job. Used the word war before. I think that is appropriate. Sometimes, war is fought it differently. Open bias come out of eczema that you have pointed out. Also, the vice of omission. What i see is a media that reflects towards a negative of donald trump. Let me give you a big example. Nbc news, wall street journal poll talked about approval disapproval for the president. A44 approve, 48 disapprove. That dominated the headlines. They were questions within there, bill, that were not reported almost in any fashion, that were very important, compelling, very positive. First, right track, wrong track. 40 of americans believe that we are on the right track. You know the number was in july . 18 . It more than doubled. Not reported anywhere. How was the economy doing . Better or worse under President Trump . 41 say it will get better. Only 21 say worse. That is how people vote. Was that part of the poll reporter . No was not. The bias of omission is the most dangerous kind of bias you can have. I see a lot of reporters engaging in. Not focusing on the positive. Bill, it is an unusual presidency. We can agree on that. Trump is an unusual president. He is not released his tax returns, all of us president serves in recent times have. That is likely to create a level of tension between press and president that you and i can agree is legitimate. Bill no, i am not so upset i mean, i wish he would, because that is always better to have a full view of the leader. But that is not a major issue for me, releasing tax returns. He is a businessman. You assume he is taking a lot of deductions and a lot of things like that, depreciations, which will not be reported accurately by the press. They wont. He knows it. Let me throw this out to you. Fox news poll out today, just out, 55 of the American People with no confidence in the media. Professor. 55 . Why do you think that is . It is because there has been a history of an adequate coverage the media of lots of things, right and left. Bill you dont think it is a trump thing . I think it is in part a trump thing. The midi has been hard on trump. The 40 of the country that support them dont like that. Bill you think the media was hard on president obama . They were not as hard as they were on President Trump. Bill right there, you have a rigged system. It is rigged. Trouble like that word. It is rigged. But it is rigged. But it shouldnt be. Because it is too important. You say it is a war, and i tell my talking points agrees with you, i dont, talking points does. Of course. Bill people dont understand, you can use talking points as a device, it is a literary device. Anyway, lets get back to you. I dont see the war ending. I just cant see it. The press is hardened its leftwing viewpoint. It has hardened it. Trump is never going to give into them, ever. Speak of the war began under president obama, i would argue. James rison, who writes for the new york times, not exactly a bastion of conservative sentiment. He said that president obama and his administration was the most antisince nixon. They openly defied his Justice Department on reporters, including james rosen. From this network. They secretly seized phone records from the associated press, two months worse. There wasnt this outrage, this boycotting of the white house Correspondents Dinner. They rejected more requests, freedom of information request and any administration in history. President obama dash go bill he did it quietly. Thats the thing. Those are oppressions actions. You didnt hear a peep about it under obama, certainly, people werent boycotting the white house Correspondents Dinner. Bill professor, the last word. Excluding people from white house briefings is not going to do anybody any good. You know that the press is likely going to win that one, inevitably. Excluding the press from access the documents are tax returns, that is also not anybodys interest. Transparency, i think emma will get us past this. The war might at least quiet down. Bill number one, he is never going to release his tax returns. Number two, it is going to get worse. The biggest story of the next four years, trump versus media, i guarantee you. Bill particularly, if President Trump is successful. The more he is successful, the more the hatred will rise. This is not about policy, bill. Its about a lot of other things. Bill i agree with that. Personality, power, style. To speak of that hatred has a boomerang effect. Bill absolutely. This press would much rather be defending defense spending down these issues. Bill they would much rather impeach him and get him out there. Gentlemen, thank you. Next on the rundown, more vandalism at jewish cemeteries. His hatred on the rise in the usa . Charles krauthammer has embossed. Later, some protesters running wild. Are they being directed by a far left group called indivisible . Those reports after these messages. T of a pizza. Um. Something wrong . So when it comes to pain relievers, why put up with just part of a day . You want the whole thing . Yes, yes live whole. Not part. Aleve. We ship everything you atcan imagine. N, and everything we ship has something in common. Whether its expedited overnight. Or shipped around the globe,. Its handled by od employees who know that delivering freight. Means delivering promises. Od. Helping the world keep promises. Im allbusiness when i, travel. Even when i travel. For leisure. So i go national, where i can choose any available upgrade in the aisle without starting any conversations or paying any upcharges. What can i say . Control suits me. Go national. Go like a pro. Bill in the impact segment tonight, over the week reagan of philadelphia, another Jewish Cemetery was vandalized. As many as 100 headstones were knocked over and desecrated. A number of Jewish Community centers have received bomb threats, saying, he does on the rise. You think it is on the rise . The only way to know that would become an retrospect, from say, a year or two. We have often had spasms of incidents, often times, much them being copycat, a lot of these today, a couple of Jewish Community centers, a couple of schools were shot down or evacuated because of bomb threats. But i think that the real story is that they are highlighting, or at least, we are seeing are highlighted in the press, antijewish incidents. Now, why is that . The story for the last 15 years, at least the one presented by the press, has been, islamophobia. All the incidents targeting muslims. Of course, trying to portray americans as reacting to islamic terrorism in a beastly way. But during those 15 years, certainly, for the last five or so, the number of antijewish incidents has been far greater and almost totally underreported. There are about four times as many antisemitic incidents over most of these years. In the last year, there was a slight changing of that ratio to about still more than 2 1. The hypothesis i would propose to you is, the story line during the bush years and to a lesser extent, the obama years, had to be the beastly nest of americans toward the muslims. Of course, now, reinforced with the trump actions. But now, we get this attention to these antisemitic incidents. If true, there seems to be somewhat of an increase. Again, it is only a couple of months. We dont know if it is going to last. I think the press, or at least, the implication is, there is of course, somehow, connected to the trump ascendancy. He is encouraging it, subliminal ways. He hasnt been Strong Enough and denouncing it, et cetera. So, i am not yet impressed that there has been a great rise of antisemitism in the country. It could be true but i am not sure. Bill i dont know what would drive that. There isnt a driver apparent. I do believe it is copycat stuff, some not see this, they do this, this usually subsides. Let me say one thing. Bill go ahead. It is real in the lives of the people who work in the communities, who work in the schools, the parents of the kid kids. Bill nobody want to be terrorized by bomb threats or have their cemeteries desecrated. It is outrage. Attorney general sessions at that today. He said it is not going to be tolerated, lets hope that the federal government is on edge. And these people are prosecuted. What i want to caution against is the instinct among many to link this with trump. We dont know if it is a real increase yet. We will see. That is number one. And number two, show me the connection. Bill all right, but they dont care about showing you anything. If they can link it to trump, they will link it to trump. That is the age we live in. If there is an earthquake. Bill look, we just did that with the press, we know the press hates him. I dont think that trump is going to pull back from the press. I think he is going to continue to confront them and the war isg to go on. Hey, charles, i was good to have you on. Directly ahead, protesters disrupting political meetings. What should we think about these people . Later, one hollywood actor calling his peers out on a refugee issue. The factor is coming right back. Means you can take a universe of data in your case literally and turn it into medical discoveries, diagnostic breakthroughs. Proof that black holes collapse into one singularity. I dont know what that is. But yes. Innovation runs on supercomputers. And supercomputers run on intel. You are super smart. And super busy. Ooh ufo false alarm, eyelash how to win at business. Step one point decisively with the arm of your glasses. Abracadabra. The stage is yours. Step two choose la quinta. The only hotel where you can redeem loyalty points for a free nightinstantly and win at business. With not food, become food . Thankfully at panera, 100 of our food is 100 clean. No artificial preservatives, sweeteners, flavors, or colors. Panera. Food as it should be. Make earning bonus cash back so why do scomplicated . K cards they limit where you can earn bonus cash back to a few places. And those places keep changing every few months. The quicksilver card from capital one doesnt do any of that. With quicksilver you earn unlimited 1. 5 cash back on every purchase, everywhere. Leave complicated behind. Whats in your wallet . Is it keeps the food out. For me before those little pieces would get in between my dentures and my gum and it was uncomfortable. Just a few dabs is clinically proven to seal out more food particles. Super poligrip is part of my life now. Bill factor followup segment, all across the country, political meetings are being disrupted by disenchanted americans. [chanting] i could tell you three members of my family, including me, that would be dead, dead, and homeless, if it was not for aca. [cheers and applause] bill homeless. Now, some believe many of those protests are organized, a group called indus a visible, actually has an online guide, telling people how to disrupt meetings. Indivisible run by far left people, it is impossible to know how extensive their influence is. Joining us from washington, gillian turner, here in new york city, abby huntsman. They debated this issue last week on outnumbered. I would like to continue that discussion tonight. How do you see this . Your father is a politician, right . He is. Bill you host a little meeting, come on and come i want to hear you, i want to get back and forth, then, people are screaming and jumping up and down. He would love this. He thinks this is what a democracy is all about. Bill robust yelling . He would still show up. He would say, if you dont, it is weak. You got to do your job, you got to talk about issues you are passionate about. These have gotten out of hand. The problems i have with these protest, bill, you dont know what their agenda is. What is their platform . You compared to the Tea Party Movement or the wall street movement. Bill it is hard to say. Look, gillian, you are sympathetic to the protesters on outnumbered. If you are a politician and you are in there, and youve got 40 or 50 people, you cant have chaos break out and get anywhere. You cant have yelling and screaming and jumping up and down and throwing chairs. That is what this crew, indivisible, recommends. They go and, scatter all over the auditorium, start to yell and scream. Surely, that is not democracy. Is it . It is absolutely democracy. Whether these people are being well behaved and Something Else that we could debate. Bill how was, gillian . How is screaming and making it impossible to get a dialogue on both sides so politician can give information and answers, how was that democracy . The whole purpose of holding a town hall in the first place is not about highlighting members of congress and how wonderful and fabulous are. Right . The whole purposes so that citizens can air their grievances and their concerns. I agree with you, people shouldnt act like hooligans. If they are, i still think of the representatives have an obligation to show up and be there. Bill and do what . Get yelled at . Look, i dont agree with screaming and rioting and throwing things. Bill gillian, you are a politician, then, you have a town hall meeting, people, and they purposely disrupt it so that you cannot have a civil dialogue. You cannot give information. What you do with those people . They were still come at some of, i was looking at the video of the Jason Chaffetz town hall, as far as i can tell, kind of kd some stuff off. They were definitely room and there over the course of an hour and a half for civil exchanges, as well. I mean, sometimes, the people flared up and they were agitated. Other times, people who appear to be kind of normal, respectful citizens would interject with questions. That is the part that i want to protect. I am not trying to protect the bad guys. Bill you didnt give an answer. Wh
