-- no matter what the outcome of tomorrow's debate the headlines Thursday morning will be decidedly pro Obama and about is my opinion.

And if you've been reading the headlines this week the president is already one.

And here ought to headlines from today's Washington Post want.

Romney forced to play defense to Mitt Romney vs Mitt Romney O and President Obama will be -- to clearly pro Obama -- wrong.

Democrat strategist Joseph trip he says voters will not listen to the media -- -- has -- that's.

Romney has a chance because there is no filter he will be able to make the case.

Certainly you're right afterwards the press is going to and pundits like me are gonna say what's what they interpret it for for people.

But the fact is.

That of that debt this audience going to be so huge that I don't think people listen that interpretation.

Well Fox News contributor Pat Caddell is via pat welcome program that view yeah.

Written an article in which you -- -- speech -- transit I'm sorry yes speaking of made a speech -- speech you said that the media has now become a threat to America's democracy now that you use and gone beyond -- yes this is a threat to Panama is explained.

Well look.

We've had bias in the media before.

And it's gotten increasingly worse over twenty years.

And then 2008 with a Obama with a -- became I mean was he -- on.

He was on -- he was basically they promoted to another supporting open.

But to something worse going on here I mean we have three teams on appeal remember we have Obama's on the field Romney team on the field in the press on the feel that the referees.

If -- sacking Romney they're tackling it.

-- at the wind discriminate for blocking.

It was something worse is happening last three weeks would be which terrifies me.

-- -- about -- decided what how what what did he showed me we we were now -- new one chartered territory.

That's -- press who's willing to decide what truth Americans might know.

And what truce they are not to know that would interfere with the -- -- agenda so we have a lot of news.

That we talked about on fox for instance.

Of it was important you know which didn't purity we're also White House was able to put -- narrowed about which was -- behind.

-- well what's cold look like one but you're saying the media has suppressed suppressed -- -- suddenly it was our ambassador when they're -- -- that can now what about the financial side of things you don't think that.

I don't in the media has suppressed the news of generally -- -- economy they have tried to promoting a narrative that things are getting better.

For Obama -- and they diverted attention away from what I think is the true state of the economy exactly this is an effort this is.

Look we knew what we go back and remember journalists 2009 as replying to the Washington Post enlargement organizing journalists in a private chat room.

Talk about how they should deal with the Republicans in new thing.

Look this is -- about partisanship.

This is about a question of whether or democracy can be free without.

The press serving as the our founders wanted them to be that's why there are no checks and balances but they should be protected people from power.

Not server power.

That's when you start getting and other systems we start approaching something between Baghdad Bob on one hand.

And in new speak from 1984 and the other is gone back fall I think what I saw in the last two weeks and would be has been -- -- look look at -- We -- -- be -- exact example.

We have an ambassador.

And I wrote about had written about this and spoke about -- ambassador who has no security.

On the anniversary of 9/11 while by the way Valerie Jarrett who is a White House -- has -- Secret Service -- -- -- nobody challenges us.

He we have with the Susan Rice goes out does five shows on Sunday she's not in the -- of authority at all led video.

The White House knew it wasn't they knew how dangerous to their narrative it would be if the -- described as a terrorist attack in -- when d.s before -- -- got it.

Now I've got twenty seconds you tell me why the in media in -- on doing this twenty -- cause they believe it is their job.

To dictate to the American people would be no better for them they don't serve the people -- -- -- -- they're making themselves.

-- -- -- -- to make themselves weak immune the American people -- -- Packard -- we appreciate it big on the show today comes -- against simply.
