[00:00:27] [SPEAKER_02]: for your support. I've said for years, elections are about what media make them.

[00:00:33] [SPEAKER_02]: And every now and again, I get, usually it's a guy named Thomas Mills, he's a North Carolina

[00:00:38] [SPEAKER_02]: Lefty former candidate and campaign consultant guy. And every now and again, he'll ask me in a

[00:00:49] [SPEAKER_02]: retort in a reply on the Twitter machine, oh, what media are you talking about? And it's this,

[00:00:55] [SPEAKER_02]: you know, well, the media is so big now, so many outlets and all this. And that's true. But

[00:01:03] [SPEAKER_02]: if you actually go and pull the ratings, the CBS, ABC and NBC Nightly Newscasts, when you combine

[00:01:11] [SPEAKER_02]: those, the viewership of those newscasts, last time I checked, and it's been a couple years,

[00:01:17] [SPEAKER_02]: but it's larger than the Fox News and the CNN broadcasts or cablecasts or whatever.

[00:01:27] [SPEAKER_02]: So, and those programs, but also Fox and CNN and MSNBC, those are also, the content is driven by

[00:01:35] [SPEAKER_02]: the press, the Dead Tree Print organizations, New York Times, Washington Post, the LA Times,

[00:01:45] [SPEAKER_02]: and yes, Politico drives it, drives a lot of it, Axios drives it. And when you look at the

[00:01:51] [SPEAKER_02]: general nature of those publications, they all lean in one direction. And there are a couple

[00:01:56] [SPEAKER_02]: of reasons for it. Now you can go back to Watergate where, you know, reporters realize that

[00:02:03] [SPEAKER_02]: they have all of this power to take out a president.

[00:02:08] [SPEAKER_02]: You've got connections, familial connections to people in power. You've got the, from the very

[00:02:17] [SPEAKER_02]: beginning of journalism, you've got the connection of publishers and owners of newspapers using

[00:02:25] [SPEAKER_02]: their platform that they control, they're the owner, they're the publisher, to advance certain

[00:02:32] [SPEAKER_02]: ideas. I mean, the Wilmington race riots is a perfect example right here in North Carolina, 1898,

[00:02:39] [SPEAKER_02]: the Klan with the help of and the egging on of the News and Observer in Raleigh

[00:02:50] [SPEAKER_02]: overthrew a duly elected government in a coup, murdered a bunch of people, Republicans and

[00:02:55] [SPEAKER_02]: and fusion party, black members of the Wilmington community. Wilmington was one of the major

[00:03:02] [SPEAKER_02]: population centers of the state, but not after the riots, not after the deposing of the

[00:03:09] [SPEAKER_02]: the elected government, which was a fusion Republican government. And

[00:03:15] [SPEAKER_02]: that's just an example, just one, the drug war, the prohibition against marijuana, largely

[00:03:23] [SPEAKER_02]: media driven. And I'm going back like 150 years, right? So this idea that first off, that's why

[00:03:30] [SPEAKER_02]: like when I say what, you know, when I hear people ask whatever happened to an objective media,

[00:03:35] [SPEAKER_02]: I don't think that ever existed. Different reporters along the way could do their best

[00:03:41] [SPEAKER_02]: and try their hardest to be objective, to go after, you know, people on quote both sides,

[00:03:46] [SPEAKER_02]: that sort of thing. My standard was always to try to be fair to the politicians that I was

[00:03:54] [SPEAKER_02]: interviewing and then to stick to the five W's who what where when and why.

[00:04:02] [SPEAKER_02]: And also, I was, you know, severely restrict severely but greatly restricted by the format

[00:04:09] [SPEAKER_02]: radio, you don't have a lot of time. So you don't have to you don't have to use a lot of

[00:04:15] [SPEAKER_02]: adjectives. And so like one of the things I did that I know I'm kind of going a little bit behind

[00:04:19] [SPEAKER_02]: the curtain here or inside baseball, but I would always report that so and so, you know, some

[00:04:25] [SPEAKER_02]: elected officials somebody would say so and so said this, I don't need to to say a different word

[00:04:33] [SPEAKER_02]: than said, I got 35 to 45 seconds to tell a story. I've got to I've got to put my out cue,

[00:04:39] [SPEAKER_02]: you know, Pete Callaner, News Talk 1110 WBT News. And I had to get the soundbite and

[00:04:46] [SPEAKER_02]: hopefully if I can get two soundbites in there and then you cram it all together. So you got

[00:04:49] [SPEAKER_02]: to tell a story in about four or five sentences. So said is a very fast word to say. It's also

[00:04:59] [SPEAKER_02]: neutral, right? When I read a lot of print pieces and I see a lot of TV pieces, I hear

[00:05:06] [SPEAKER_02]: different words being used instead of said and they communicate different things. Just an example,

[00:05:13] [SPEAKER_02]: okay? Just an example. So when I say elections are about what media make them, I don't mean that

[00:05:22] [SPEAKER_02]: that media is the sole determinant because media will report on stuff even if sometimes

[00:05:29] [SPEAKER_02]: they don't want to they feel like they have to or story breaks through and becomes

[00:05:33] [SPEAKER_02]: such a big deal that they can't ignore it any longer. But and that, by the way, can be pushed

[00:05:41] [SPEAKER_02]: by campaigns and partisans no doubt about that. But there are a lot of stories that campaigns

[00:05:48] [SPEAKER_02]: and partisans and oppo researchers they will come up with and try to get media to report on

[00:05:54] [SPEAKER_02]: and the media ignores them. Look at the Hunter Biden laptop story, right? But what has also

[00:06:01] [SPEAKER_02]: happened in the media landscape is that as the credentialing service that is the university

[00:06:09] [SPEAKER_02]: has become more and more expensive thanks to government intervention, ballooning administrative

[00:06:15] [SPEAKER_02]: costs and yes DEI is part of that. It becomes unattainable as a profession journalism becomes

[00:06:25] [SPEAKER_02]: unattainable as a profession unless you've got generational wealth which I know Democrats

[00:06:31] [SPEAKER_02]: are very, very interested in now. People who go into journalism tend to be of the upper middle

[00:06:39] [SPEAKER_02]: class and upper class socioeconomic groups because they're the ones that can afford to go to

[00:06:46] [SPEAKER_02]: the most prestigious journalism schools, a.k.a credentialing services. That's what they are.

[00:06:53] [SPEAKER_02]: I went to Winthrop University. I got a journalism degree there mass communication broadcast

[00:06:58] [SPEAKER_02]: journalism degree. I learned how to structure stories and that sort of thing but you learn most

[00:07:04] [SPEAKER_02]: when you're actually on the job. There's also a political science minor and a philosophy minor

[00:07:09] [SPEAKER_02]: that informs how I think about these issues as I cover them. Questions I should be asking,

[00:07:15] [SPEAKER_02]: why people believe what they believe. I'm a big why guy. It's I think it's like the most

[00:07:19] [SPEAKER_02]: important question of the five W's. But when you've got people that are coming from a wealthier

[00:07:25] [SPEAKER_02]: background they're the ones that can afford to go to the most prestigious credentialing colleges

[00:07:30] [SPEAKER_02]: and that then lands them the gigs at these publications and news outlets that drive the

[00:07:37] [SPEAKER_02]: national conversation. And that in turn informs the population at large. Now what has happened

[00:07:45] [SPEAKER_02]: is the fragmentation and disintegration of that model and these people who work in the profession

[00:07:53] [SPEAKER_02]: who for generations have been the gatekeepers of information. That's why people did not know

[00:07:59] [SPEAKER_02]: about Edith Wilson. People did not know about FDR or JFK, right? They didn't know these things

[00:08:06] [SPEAKER_02]: because media decided we're not going to cover that and they came up with whatever rationalization

[00:08:12] [SPEAKER_02]: they wanted to come up with in order to defend their position. But you can't tell me there

[00:08:18] [SPEAKER_02]: wasn't just a smidge, just a teensy-weensy little bit of political motivation or bias there.

[00:08:27] [SPEAKER_02]: When they cover for one and not another that sort of thing. And when you find out the story like

[00:08:32] [SPEAKER_02]: for example the Monica Lewinsky story Newsweek had it. I believe it was Michael Isikoff

[00:08:37] [SPEAKER_02]: and Newsweek refused to publish it. And then the Drudge Report did it and then it blew up.

[00:08:44] [SPEAKER_02]: It became this big scandal right? And then media had to report on it. But elections are

[00:08:51] [SPEAKER_02]: generally about what media make them. And if the media wants this election to be a choice between

[00:08:57] [SPEAKER_02]: joy and tyranny then that's what this election is going to be about, I fear.

[00:09:04] [SPEAKER_02]: Because Trump and Vance and the Republican Party and all of the candidates and surrogates and

[00:09:09] [SPEAKER_02]: they're all trying to push certain narratives to push back on that in order to say that's

[00:09:18] [SPEAKER_02]: not what this is a choice about. But if you look at the way the DNC has been covered over the last

[00:09:24] [SPEAKER_02]: four days and you look at where we've been over the last six weeks, it's very obvious

[00:09:29] [SPEAKER_02]: that the media has chosen a side here and it is against Donald Trump. And the data bears it out.

[00:09:39] [SPEAKER_02]: The Media Research Center, I mentioned this the other day, the Media Research Center,

[00:09:44] [SPEAKER_02]: I've got the data, I'm going to go over it now, has crunched the numbers on all of the coverage,

[00:09:51] [SPEAKER_02]: positive negative, horse race versus policy or substantive. They've crunched the numbers and

[00:09:58] [SPEAKER_02]: I feel like it proves my point that this election is also going to be about what the media makes

[00:10:06] [SPEAKER_02]: it. All right, hey real quick, if you would like to get your product or service in front

[00:10:10] [SPEAKER_02]: of about 10,000 people multiple times a day, send me an email at Pete at thepeakallinershow.com

[00:10:17] [SPEAKER_02]: and ask me about advertising. It's super affordable, it's baked into this podcast forever and podcasts

[00:10:23] [SPEAKER_02]: have a higher conversion rate than other social media platforms making it the best bang for your

[00:10:27] [SPEAKER_02]: buck. Send me a message Pete at thepeakallinershow.com and I can show you how it works, run the

[00:10:32] [SPEAKER_02]: numbers with you. Again that's Pete at thepeakallinershow.com Media Research Center,

[00:10:39] [SPEAKER_02]: crunched the numbers on the coverage, this was from,

[00:10:45] [SPEAKER_02]: okay like three days ago. That's when I mentioned it, I think I mentioned it on Monday and I just

[00:10:50] [SPEAKER_02]: haven't gotten around to giving you the data on it so this predates the DNC. Since this is a piece

[00:10:56] [SPEAKER_02]: by Rich Noyes at newsbusters.org, since Joe Biden exited the 2024 presidential race four

[00:11:04] [SPEAKER_02]: weeks ago, the liberal networks have delivered an unprecedented boost of positive publicity

[00:11:10] [SPEAKER_02]: to his successor in the race, Kamala Harris. Not only has she received 66% more airtime than former

[00:11:18] [SPEAKER_02]: President Donald Trump but the spin of Harris's coverage has been far more positive than any

[00:11:25] [SPEAKER_02]: other major party nominee ever in the modern times. Even as Trump's coverage has been nearly

[00:11:35] [SPEAKER_02]: entirely hostile, 84% of her coverage is positive, 89% of Trump's coverage is negative. Now part of

[00:11:54] [SPEAKER_02]: his old, Trump is old and Trump's been around the political scene now and part of our coverage and

[00:12:01] [SPEAKER_02]: our lives for what 12 years now. Biden for 60 years or whatever so somebody new comes along

[00:12:11] [SPEAKER_02]: and they're going to have a lot more opportunity to do the stories that haven't been done on Kamala

[00:12:17] [SPEAKER_02]: that have been done on people that have been on the scene for longer. As always but here's

[00:12:23] [SPEAKER_02]: the thing, you can't chalk all of this up to she's new Trump's old. And apologists for this

[00:12:34] [SPEAKER_02]: disparity will obviously say to us that well this is because of who Trump is. That's why

[00:12:40] [SPEAKER_02]: because he's terrible. He did these bad things. He's awful but again that's motivated reasoning

[00:12:47] [SPEAKER_02]: because there's an interview in case you haven't seen it. Donald Trump sat for an interview with

[00:12:52] [SPEAKER_02]: a comedian because his name is Theo Kahn I think or Kahn Theo, I forget. And it was he got the guys

[00:13:01] [SPEAKER_02]: got a podcast and they talk about recovery and addiction and that sort of stuff but he's a comedian

[00:13:07] [SPEAKER_02]: and he got an interview with Donald Trump and I watched it the other day and it runs on about

[00:13:12] [SPEAKER_02]: 15 minutes or so and he's taught that all they're talking about is addiction and why Trump

[00:13:19] [SPEAKER_02]: has never drank any alcohol, tried a drug or smoked a cigarette because of his brother,

[00:13:26] [SPEAKER_02]: Fred, who died of alcoholism and they talk about Fred although I noticed that whenever

[00:13:33] [SPEAKER_02]: Trump was asked like specific stories you know when's the last time you saw him what's a good

[00:13:39] [SPEAKER_02]: memory. Trump didn't answer him he would just keep talking in the same circles which is super

[00:13:44] [SPEAKER_02]: annoying to me but that's always that's the way Trump has always been since he came down the

[00:13:48] [SPEAKER_02]: escalator. I did watch an old interview that Trump gave on the Oprah Winfrey show back when Oprah liked

[00:13:56] [SPEAKER_02]: him and he was way better at answering questions directly and being on topic that the flight of

[00:14:04] [SPEAKER_02]: ideas that he bounces all around now on it's like that that's a fairly new development I guess

[00:14:11] [SPEAKER_02]: in his life well 20 years probably and I wish he would you know stick to the issues and

[00:14:16] [SPEAKER_02]: focus on answering the questions and that sort of thing but that's not him so I've given up trying

[00:14:22] [SPEAKER_02]: to hold him to a standard that I know he can't hit. The calculation of SPIN does not include the

[00:14:30] [SPEAKER_02]: horse race assessments so who's winning what do the polls say that sort of stuff is not included

[00:14:36] [SPEAKER_02]: in those data points that I just gave you going over this media research center analysis

[00:14:41] [SPEAKER_02]: newsbusters.org is the website headline study says network sorry networks deliver massive media

[00:14:51] [SPEAKER_02]: honeymoon to Kamala Harris as always the calculation that they run omits the horse race

[00:14:59] [SPEAKER_02]: assessments but a separate count for those stories also shows they highly favored Harris by a 94

[00:15:08] [SPEAKER_02]: positive for her versus just 43 positive for Trump at the same time the network coverage has virtually

[00:15:17] [SPEAKER_02]: eliminated any discussion of the strident left-wing positions that Harris took as senator

[00:15:22] [SPEAKER_02]: or during her 2020 presidential campaign for that matter and while republican vice presidential

[00:15:28] [SPEAKER_02]: candidate JD Vance and his democratic counterpart Tim Walls who's a liar have received nearly equal

[00:15:35] [SPEAKER_02]: amounts of airtime the networks have celebrated walls with 62 positive press and punished Vance

[00:15:41] [SPEAKER_02]: with 92 negative press the media research center analysis looked at abc cbs and nbc evening newscast

[00:15:54] [SPEAKER_02]: they report as far back as 2015 Donald Trump has nearly always bested his competitors when it

[00:16:00] [SPEAKER_02]: came to total airtime during the 2020 general election for example the then president received

[00:16:06] [SPEAKER_02]: three times more coverage than Joe Biden yet during the past four weeks the networks have gifted the

[00:16:12] [SPEAKER_02]: most airtime to Kamala Harris at 221 minutes of coverage or about 66 percent more than Trump's

[00:16:21] [SPEAKER_02]: 133 minutes over the 28 day period the four weeks that they studied Tim Walls received a nearly

[00:16:29] [SPEAKER_02]: identical 31 minutes 59 seconds of airtime but during a much shorter time period so Vance and

[00:16:37] [SPEAKER_02]: Walls got the same amount of coverage but Walls got it over the course of just 12 newscasts

[00:16:43] [SPEAKER_02]: versus JD Vance over the course of four weeks and again mostly negative in 2020 we calculated

[00:16:54] [SPEAKER_02]: the network supplied Joe Biden with 66 positive coverage the demo in 2016 Clinton actually got

[00:17:03] [SPEAKER_02]: mostly negative coverage 79 percent mostly negative coverage during that year's campaign

[00:17:08] [SPEAKER_02]: and she lost using similar methodology Stephen Farnsworth and Robert Lickter in 2008

[00:17:16] [SPEAKER_02]: found 68 positive press for Barack Obama that was the highest recorded for any nominee over

[00:17:23] [SPEAKER_02]: the past six election cycles by the non-partisan Center for Media and Public Affairs given the

[00:17:29] [SPEAKER_02]: networks coverage of the past four weeks it is conceivable now that Harris's coverage for this

[00:17:35] [SPEAKER_02]: year is going to end up even more positive than Obama's was 16 years ago when you see these

[00:17:44] [SPEAKER_02]: numbers it really is astonishing that a Republican ever wins anything really add it all up in the

[00:17:52] [SPEAKER_02]: networks have granted the combined Democrat ticket of Harris Walls 82 positive press the Trump

[00:17:58] [SPEAKER_02]: Vance ticket has received 90 negative coverage this is not in your head anybody that tells you

[00:18:07] [SPEAKER_02]: that the media isn't biased or something though there's there's no liberal bias in the media

[00:18:12] [SPEAKER_02]: they are either ignorant or they are gaslighting you which is to say they are lying

[00:18:20] [SPEAKER_02]: and they are doing so in an attempt to make you question your own grip on reality

[00:18:28] [SPEAKER_02]: they go on to say that the networks have ignored her liberal record

[00:18:33] [SPEAKER_02]: Harris is almost certainly the most left-wing nominee of a major party in U.S. history

[00:18:37] [SPEAKER_02]: based on her record and her comments in 2019 she was named the most liberal of all U.S.

[00:18:44] [SPEAKER_02]: senators a grouping that included socialist Bernie Sanders of course the organization that

[00:18:49] [SPEAKER_02]: did those rankings then turned around and redid the methodology so this way she wouldn't be the

[00:18:57] [SPEAKER_02]: most liberal they did that after she was named and it came out she was the most liberal senator and

[00:19:02] [SPEAKER_02]: Trump started saying it and then they went back and were like well let's instead of looking at one

[00:19:06] [SPEAKER_02]: year let's look at a two-year cycle yeah let's do that and then she bumps up from the most

[00:19:11] [SPEAKER_02]: liberal to like the second or third most liberal so Harris's past support for many extreme left-wing

[00:19:18] [SPEAKER_02]: ideas like the Green New Deal abolishing the immigration and customs enforcement agency or ICE

[00:19:25] [SPEAKER_02]: imposing Medicare for all in place of private health insurance right all of this was ignored

[00:19:29] [SPEAKER_02]: during the wave of good press question is how long does the honeymoon last

[00:19:36] [SPEAKER_02]: I have no I well I would not be surprised if it never ends until after the election

[00:19:45] [SPEAKER_02]: now she may have a shortened honeymoon period after she wins right but I suspect they're going

[00:19:53] [SPEAKER_02]: to try to keep this going for the next three months what else they have downplayed and ignored

[00:20:00] [SPEAKER_02]: damaging democrat controversies the network spent barely any time on controversies that might have

[00:20:07] [SPEAKER_02]: marred her honeymoon out of 221 minutes of total Harris coverage the ABC CBS and NBC

[00:20:14] [SPEAKER_02]: Evening Newscasts spent a grand total of 25 seconds out of 221 minutes they spent 25 seconds

[00:20:26] [SPEAKER_02]: on the idea that vice president Harris was not truthful about Joe Biden's true condition

[00:20:34] [SPEAKER_02]: prior to July 21st 25 seconds they spent on that and it was always presented as a Republican

[00:20:42] [SPEAKER_02]: allegation Harris has been handed the nomination was the complaint that got one minute and 59

[00:20:54] [SPEAKER_02]: seconds of airtime over four weeks failure to have any meaningful interactions with the press

[00:20:59] [SPEAKER_02]: that got 57 seconds of coverage in contrast the network spent eight and a half minutes

[00:21:08] [SPEAKER_02]: on Trump's appearance at the National Association of Black Journalists

[00:21:11] [SPEAKER_02]: do you remember this appearance when he questioned whether Harris used to promote herself as an

[00:21:18] [SPEAKER_02]: Indian American of Indian American heritage instead of black he mentioned that in that interview

[00:21:24] [SPEAKER_02]: that got eight and a half minutes of coverage but whether or not she knew that Joe Biden was

[00:21:29] [SPEAKER_02]: incognitive decline not so much that could that got 25 seconds even though we know she

[00:21:37] [SPEAKER_02]: said these things repeatedly we've got audio clips of it we've got video of it

[00:21:41] [SPEAKER_02]: JD Vance's comments about childless cat ladies that got 11 and a half minutes of coverage

[00:21:47] [SPEAKER_02]: but again her getting handed the nomination two minutes the cat lady musings drew nearly

[00:21:55] [SPEAKER_02]: twice as much network interest than all of Tim Walz's dubious claims about his military

[00:22:00] [SPEAKER_02]: service that got six minutes and one second his mishandling of the 2020 riots following

[00:22:06] [SPEAKER_02]: George Floyd's death that got even less network interest at just 80 seconds of airtime so again

[00:22:13] [SPEAKER_02]: JD Vance makes the joke about childless cat ladies 11 and a half minutes burning down the

[00:22:19] [SPEAKER_02]: cities after the George Floyd death 80 seconds elections are about what media make them so I

[00:22:27] [SPEAKER_02]: mentioned the lack of coverage on the democrat controversy specifically what I find to be

[00:22:33] [SPEAKER_02]: the biggest scandal in modern American political history which is the fact that we have a president

[00:22:38] [SPEAKER_02]: who's incognitive decline so much so that his own party ousted him from the ticket refuses to talk

[00:22:44] [SPEAKER_02]: about it and media is going along with that strategy they are they are complying they're

[00:22:51] [SPEAKER_02]: helping and again that strategy would not work without a compliant media media has got to go

[00:23:02] [SPEAKER_02]: along with that and by the way the washington post has a story about it now acknowledging

[00:23:08] [SPEAKER_02]: that the Biden handlers kept his condition from from everybody of course they're gonna play like

[00:23:15] [SPEAKER_02]: oh we had no idea right but now they're at least acknowledging that yeah they they probably

[00:23:20] [SPEAKER_02]: knew he was in decline because obviously of course they knew how could they not

[00:23:27] [SPEAKER_02]: and guess who else knew Kamala Harris knew is somebody gonna talk to her about that here's how

[00:23:33] [SPEAKER_02]: I know she knew because when Robert Hurd the special counsel said that he can't prosecute Biden because

[00:23:39] [SPEAKER_02]: he would present himself to a jury as a sympathetic elderly man with a failing memory and he got

[00:23:46] [SPEAKER_02]: all mad at that characterization of himself and Kamala Harris then came out and defended him

[00:23:51] [SPEAKER_00]: what I saw that report last night I believe is as a former prosecutor

[00:24:02] [SPEAKER_00]: the comments that were made by that prosecutor gratuitous inaccurate and inappropriate the way

[00:24:11] [SPEAKER_00]: that the president's demeanor in that report was characterized could not be more wrong on the

[00:24:18] [SPEAKER_00]: facts and clearly politically motivated all right so that's it wrong on the facts

[00:24:27] [SPEAKER_02]: incorrect inaccurate sonny right who is a conservative writer you can find him on twitter

[00:24:35] [SPEAKER_02]: sonny right su and ny right sonny right he says democrats are actively trying to gaslight the

[00:24:41] [SPEAKER_02]: country into thinking that they haven't been in the white house since 2021 and the media rather

[00:24:45] [SPEAKER_02]: than calling them out is playing along think about this there are more um there are more policies
