To make his Republican dollar and rising stars as well -- -- when it comes to journeys with me now.

But the big backer Mitt Romney and -- -- On any that headline first struck me.

And then the the story read struck me because I'm reading -- -- -- same paper that blasted -- when they help Republicans.

When it could see -- -- and it it it obviously.

The coverage in this campaign.

By the traditional media has been horrific well now the economy it's proved it yet.

Well whether it's the economy are quite look at.

Know that the Middle East is is blowing up it's on fire our our our.

Fox News breaks a story that that within 24 hours of the first attack.

The complete.

The administration knew that it was a terrorist attack and really didn't disclose that for weeks.

Really for political purposes so that his foreign policy didn't look like it caused these problems as.

This apology apology and appeasement policy.

And it could you imagine if George Bush -- George W.

Bush had tried to cover up the fact that something was terrorist attack -- everybody with any sense it was a -- it.

Or anything -- out of -- also -- -- AdSense and say that we've we've got bumps along the road I mean.

Then go to George Bush at -- -- -- -- out of office but let.

-- -- -- sit INS in the New -- that I understand its inherent biases but you know I guess I'm old enough to -- time when the media alike sit.

-- -- you know.

Dirk everybody -- you know and go after -- at its -- going after Michael the cockpits more.

The famous -- motionless responds to Bernie saw about.

Of what would you do with his wife -- rates.

It eight used to go after Jimmy Carter who you know we're talking about -- consulted is that eight year old daughter Amy on.

Nuclear proliferation in other words.

It lumped together got to -- either party now -- scenes and I'm just saying this is you know as on the right -- left.

Our our give you ample room.

And it was really refreshing her talk about.

Journalism about -- you had to be fair -- -- try to balance I tried to put your feelings aside your your own beliefs you could go in and vote tell you wanted.

But when -- reported on -- story wrote about something needed to be balance I think that's just go on I think with traditional media that's not that just isn't in play anymore and I think that.

-- example with the taxes -- only the most recent -- foreign policy -- I -- the economy what do you hear people talk about little in any little improvement in the economy.

And it's a story about how president Obama's on the right track and very little coverage of the you know 43 straight months of 8% plus unemployment forty.

Just today durable goods orders seven million durable goods orders sliding all of a sudden the housing industry might not be taking off.

Those numbers don't get nearly the coverage and I'm just saying.

I just all appealed to people this election no matter which side of that of the -- -- -- Republican or Democrat liberal conservative or independent.

Look into the facts because an all likelihood if you're watching traditional media sources are you reading the times -- the post.

You're not getting the full story you may not even beginning an honest story -- -- definitely not getting the full story you have to look behind the facts and look behind the articles.

Well I just leave it -- as you did before and I'm I'm I'm open to attacks on both sides as long as as both sides if you're going to go up crazy it.

On one got you might as little crazy and out of and that was a time.

When the media just as liberal in the past happily did so if for no other reason that I love the gotcha moment you know but.

It's weird -- All it was less commitment to journalistic ethics that's exactly and I wanna get back -- that argument about the Texas two are wanted to jump in lol I was listening her.

No might well that's another -- because -- that I've lost my appetite which made it was that it gets us the intention.

But in the thank you very much listeria back again this new unity -- -- -- --
