The viewers will not be able t see the attorneys for dominion cross-examined tucker carlson, for example, with the fact tha he wrote, he sent messages saying, sydney powell is lying and yet fox news continue to present those very lies, what would contend were democracy busting lies to its viewers. boy, it would be really nice i the viewing public got to se tucker carlson being cross examined with information like that angelo, right now in th short term fox continues t produce high ratings how do you think that this dominion lawsuit, along with the smartmatic lawsuit, abby maddox s lawsuit, th shareholder derivative lawsuit how do you think it will affec fox s bottom line? talk about how carriage fees fit into this whole calculus i thought you posted a tweet about a very interested in it.
Trump was simply allowed t prattle on at will as someone who watches fox new on the regular, and thinks about it as a business, angelo what does that tell you? two things. one, it was like the good ol days when you are watching fox news, when they would always give trump the floor for 20, 30, minutes without even asking question tucker also basically said ten words in the first 12, 1 minutes of the interview and just let trump talk. in fact, one of the only thing that tucker said was t reinforce the idea that th election was stolen. because some people say jo biden won the election that was the introduction to the only question he asked trump during that time period. so i mean, part of it is the have to, that demonstrates the fine policy act that they ar walking here which is that they have to giv a winking and not to their audience they have to cater to them t some extent. it is, to me, very shocking, because just last month. it was the first month eve where another sort of trum rival actually had slightl
More coverage than trump did o fox news that has not happened fo years. ron desantis finally tippe trump, one time, one month it has not happened in years that somebody else has got mor coverage and boom, they are right back. so, to me, what it tells us is that this is going to be par of their balancing act they are squeezed between rock and a hard place. but what is very clear is that they are gonna continue t attack the elections, they are just not going to use the word dominion, but they are going t reinforce the big lie, and t an extent, they are stil deeply captive to a part of th audience that is so much allegiance to trump. so much so that they will give him, basically, a full hour of uninterrupted primetime from a host was repeatedly said tha he hated donald trump, and didn t think he was very smart and couldn t wait to sto talking about him. angelo, as always, appreciate your connecting the dots chris, your first time with, u please come back thank you both up next, justice thomas an relationship with billionair harlan crow under scrutiny
As the motives that fox news i going to have to deal with and that is they had a profi motive to spread these lies. that the emails and th communications indicate, tha after they follow the election errors, they vastly starte losing audience. and that caused panic within fox news, they were losing ratings, they were losing thei core audience, and that is whe the narrative shifted for fo news, when they decided to choose their audience and th profits that that audience brings, rather than publishing the truth about the election and so, just as alex jones had a profit motive for spreadin false lies about sandy hoo because it generated his audience, so did fox news. and that cross-examination i going to be very compelling, because the jury is going to b wondering, why would the spread lies about somethin that everybody knew? and the answer is money. angelo, amid all of this, a fox news airing but don t worry, to my viewers, no even a clip of it the washington post put, it
$2 million worth of u.s. farmland and almost 400,000 acres and the concern is that we are giving leverage to china and other adversarial nations over our country s food supply. again, not just china, also iran, north korea, russia, cuba and venezuela, and this has lawmakers from both parties, both here in new york and across the entire country, even at the federal level, trying to stop this. listen to this. i think, you know, keeping our country safe, making sure we are not allowing foreign adversaries to come in here and threaten our national security, whether it s a spy balloon or buying up a farm like this. i think it s a top concern. so bill, that s democrat new york state assemblyman angelo santa barbara, the author of the new bill in new york that would ban foreign adversaries from buying farmland. he believes the bill has enough bipartisan support to become law this year. across the country it is a
Joining me now, media matter president and ceo, angel carusone okay, angelo, good to see you. break this down for us how significant is this lega victory for dominion it is really significan because one of the things, you know, there is always detail and the judge said here is tha not only where the statement not true, they also ruled in favor for dominion to say we r not gonna be discussin defamation during the trial. that is actually established dominion and their motions that, hey, judge, would you say that we were not only, that fox not only lied about us, but they defamed us and the judge said yes the only thing that will b decided a trial now based on all of the rulings of the judg found is two things. so, one, whether or not fo news acted with actual malice, which is to say that what they knew they were saying was no true, or that they acted recklessly and then the other thing is technical thing, as to whether or not fox corporation, whic
That there are any precarious position. the evidence is overwhelming against it. it has been pouring out there. but they are now sort of shifting into a pr battle and hoping that they can do what they do in a whole different other scenarios. shifts the media coverage that tamp down the pressure and temperature a little bit. and then simultaneously hope that they have some space to make the case that they were just sort of recording this confidential critical story. they didn t do anything about. it but the truth is, rupert murdoch actually said it in his deposition. he acknowledged that he wasn t just doing neutral reporting, he explicitly said that many of the hosts were endorsing and actively promoting these claims. that is as you say the thing. angelo and harry, thank you both so much, as always. next, we go back to mississippi, survivors are picking up the pieces from a deadly tornado that struck their state. we will hear from one of. then plus, a race to floral in wisconsin to be a bellwether in the battle for abortion

Notice for parents of any curriculum that is potentially controversial. the chairman of the school s board who wants tallahassee classical to be on the cutting edge of desantis education agenda saying rights are supreme, protecting one, 10, 20 or 50. in this case the interests of the three parents who spoke up about michael many angelo s masterpieces was enough to force the school principal out of her job. last week the school s board voted that the principal would be fired if she did not resign over this renaissance history lesson. in a statement released after news of her ouster was published, the principal said the chairman of the school s board was more concerned about litigation and appeasing a small minority of parents rather than trusting my expertise as ang educator for more that 25 years. they might already be on the
