soledad o'brien was filling in for anderson cooper on c_n_n_'s she was
accused of having a liberal bias
so they were treated like a lot more pple
let's look for a suburb of their work is going to be a very liberal bias
some stupid abusing there were two different occasions where this happened
the first time she was talking to the campaign adviser for romney
her name is barbara comstock
uh... and they were out you know arguing about romney and uh... is sold out
o'brien actually took out talking points metal article anshu wrote a red other
quote from senator ron widen
now after she did that all this set in all of these conservative pundit started
talking about how she has a massive liberal bias for instance
rush limbaugh said
it seems she read from tpm which is our liberal publication
he never cited a teachers read its contents
when she talks to a democrat pieces of paper citizen and i stockpile of
forty for so i get history of working people news i worry they will lose that
there's a lot of piece of paper no matter who you're talking weekly feeling
that if they do the right time babe ruth
and say what he can
that you know started by progressive oftentimes those of a progressive
perspective but they do actual news
and there's a lot of magazines and publications there
on the right from the left
but they actually do you know you select the nation on the left
now i think we'd be centers
they have a specific objective in their funded
by certain rich people for that had taken the center but it's not to say
that they've never written anything true work if they quoted senator that they
made it up information she's quoting a senator okay maybe it's a liberal
publication
but in suburbia and quality
of a senator do you wear or the forecasts smooth
involving back-alley so at what i love is the excellent adam bryant is in
allowing these conservatives to get on where sorry for my taxes as at its
poorly
i was not reading off talking points memo the memo pad in accurate version
quote of what senator widening
ascent
and when i was talking to miss kahn stock she was saying something that was
patently untrue
to get them out
yeah doesn't look like backing down here you go get 'em so that
and look
geesh when faced with just sheer idiocy like how do you know you quoted senator
accurately
i guess reality as a well-known liberal bias to stephen colbert famously said
right right
it but the thing is the reason we're giving a courtesy of my between white
and do the story salah stride
is because this is exactly
an an
now look c_n_n_ is responding to it but at least in this case i love it but
they're not backing down that love the fact that backing down because it's been
this intimidation from conservatives that lead
the mainstream media
to back down on everything like they're just so afraid to be uh... criticized
but then there was another situation and this situation involved now former new
hampshire governor
jumps in it
and they were talking on tuesday about uh... medicare
and you know there are got into a bit of a debate about it
and basically soledad o'brien wasn't backing down that's what well let me
just read a clerk but at this time
we'll give you a statewide anesthetic and i'm telling you it's not
then let me read you how quote from mit romney this is from popeye and this is
an article in the market which is about two weeks ago
he said this on march twentieth in chicago on very supportive of the ryan
budget plan
i think it would be marvelous if the senate were to pick up all ryan's budget
an adopted and pass it along to the president that sounds like a lot of
support
its support for the concepts that are in the right and plant
but mit romney for six months has had on the table his package his plan and his
approach to dealing with medicare and if what you want to do is keep repeating
the garbage that comes out of the white house that you've got a problem along on
ke dar lag daffodil battening down file of that because
to reported that one
literally right
heaters and isn't that garbage coming out of the white house here
related shrink or inform them about the middle of me
right the just a in reality
so it gets even more heated
uh... because sununu did not like to be uh... uh... question he didn't like to
be challenged
so here's what he had to say is sold out of ryan was whatever you want to know
about my mouth is all right if i read
when you do this
okay
i don't know but but that's exactly he's a bully many first of all he's houston
never be charles what do you know if you must have been talking quite where i
live in the media and i get away with it for the last thirty years why all of a
sudden u_s_ female paul question
and that's my main point here exogenous earlier i think c_n_n_ is changing a
little bit many is just the tiny little bit of a chip but i've seen them ask
follow-up questions i've seen them be more aggressive
and it's a very welcome shift it as a matter of israel bonds are democrats i
mean my all means both of them government officials pentagon officials
i hope you got leaky do follow-up questions aggressively that's called
journalism
but it's funny the reaction of the politicians because they're so unusual
dot blotting delhi how could you possibly can add qualification this was
interesting when god leads and i think accepted as reality right
exactly on that's another brian and love the fact that she's not backing down in
this next year
she basically response to some of the inaccuracies in his argument let's watch
i'm john sununu said this to me i'm starting point
when nobody that'd medicare by taking seven hundred and seventeen billion
dollars out of it
it's iri duction in services and they reduction
in in support for medicare advantage that is taking money from the program
but where's this idea that the president's health care plan got sick
billions of dollars from medicare coming from
a congressional budget office report says if so-called old bomber care were
repealed spending for medicare would increase by an estimated seven hundred
and sixteen billion dollars over a ten-year period
but that same cbl report says keeping obon the care would not mean a seven
hundred billion dollar decrease in medicare funding so while we here at
starting point always enjoy at healthy even if the times he did debate becomes
the facts we like to hold all our guests accountable including
governor sununu
on you go get 'em look congressional budget office is non-partisan republics
quarter
all the time when they come up with figures the daylight unions are now in
this case
they've done this whole trek issue mainly explain their and c_n_n_ coming
out in explaining the faxes thinking to reality when challenged with a
big usual
crap about bias
pain and that that is a welcome sight so god let's keep that up and by the way so
that goes out to democrats all the time to in fact i want to review it well
here d revs up there is a democrat but i think this would takes him on as well
but you got you cannot tell me
that if in fact we were talking of mit romney saying a lot like that right if
we were in fact discussing that
and the pope was he wants to put you all back in chains and i was part of
governor romney speech that people would not be going crazy
and crying about race-baiting and talking about toan and tenor
and decoded language i i think we worked with
but i'm not sure but i think it depends on the contents
our witnesses undecided second there because our report
people for their said actually that the audience was divided
similarly to held angel's divided roughly fifty fifty is the demographics
india and the white to black and that's what we are told was the makeup of the
crowd as well roughly half that crap was african-american
when we talk back in there
in june you were talking about i think you have some kind of a smell to it
talking about out of the contents rises for eric holder right when you said back
in a there is a concern about ethics probes of black lawmakers if you were
speaking about
called c l_ well there's nothing spell that but we have a concern
and yet it seems to me like everybody
turns either way
you know similar things could be highlighted here
while yet
now unloaded trucks position of the republican reaction of democratic
reaction of the child
cuz you cant are observed clearest poliana custom to do is like
sconces within the camel and others and is that what he's like
well what's happening here as well as c_n_n_
protect my cast the tough questions
ancillary everybody reaction is content that is the way the
fakta democratic registered or no
what's happening here
