00:00And I love Fox and I love Roger Ailes.
00:05We have tried to present fair and balanced news.
00:08The Fox News, where at best things are left out and at worst things are terribly distorted.
00:30And the only question I ask my people really is, can you present a fair story even if it
00:41doesn't come out the way you want?
00:43And he says, well, you've got bias.
00:45I said, everybody's got bias.
00:46You don't have bias, you're brain dead.
01:30We're not starting up a reactive news service here, so we just expect to do fine, balanced
01:57journalism.
01:58A Clinton bombshell.
02:20The president faces a new scandal that is rocking the White House.
02:25I run Fox News.
02:28Rupert Murdoch asked me to build a worldwide news channel, and we started about two and
02:32a half years ago.
02:33We're in about 38 million homes now, and we just passed MSNBC yesterday in terms of eyeballs
02:40on the screen.
02:41And we're doing pretty well.
02:57Fox News now projects George W. Bush, the winner in Florida, and thus it appears the
03:01winner of the presidency of the United States.
03:11I can't tell you the number of times I have invited my Republican colleagues to come down
03:26to the floor and have a debate.
03:28We don't even argue anymore.
03:30They go on Fox News, we go on MSNBC.
03:46Because we're not hearing about these cases because they're going to secret arbitration.
03:50That's part of the reason.
03:51We're fooling our culture into thinking that we've come so far.
03:54Why?
03:55Because we're not hearing about it.
03:56Fox News.
03:57We demand that you stop validating sexual harassment and assault, and that you stop
03:58isolating, intimidating survivors.
03:59And we demand that you take Bill O'Reilly and other sexual predators out of the White
04:29House.
04:30Off the airwaves.
04:38What we can tell you with certainty is that Barack Obama has deep emotional ties to Islam.
04:44Many schools that do plan to reopen will do so under a series of restrictions that have
04:49no basis of any kind in science.
05:19This morning, I'm watching Fox News.
05:34The media is fake and corrupt.
05:37Big Tech controls the media and they control the politicians.
05:41And I'll tell you what, I give Tucker Carlson and I give Sean Hannity and I give Laura,
05:49I give all of those people that are willing to talk about tremendous credit.
05:57And Fox and Friends in the morning is the best show and it's the absolute most honest
06:03show and it's the show I watch.
06:18The worst polls are the Fox polls, believe it or not.
06:20They're the worst.
06:26Fox News, I liked them up until they started not telling the truth anymore.
06:39I think they've lost a lot of credibility this cycle.
06:41No question.
06:42They are no longer the Fox News of the past.
06:45They have shifted themselves into the regular coup, if you will, of the mainstream media.
