Howie and Bernie Goldberg

" 187746943. To do joining us now is Bernie Goldberg he's -- a guest on the show several times and he's got a new a great new book out. With a fantastic title are slobbering -- love affair. The true and pathetic story of the toward romance between Barack Obama. In the mainstream media. Bernie is a great book and that it's doing great IC on my cameras on -- going to be on our Riley again tonight and dust thanks for being with us here on how we car show."

" and I did not. I did not steal that car that was vital links type borrowed it but I did borrow it to drive to Chicago the but I'm gonna return and I promise that -- I did not steal that car and they should've never -- idling abated while beautiful."

" That's right that's right good body you know if you seared if you need a car and -- car is there idling in front of a 7-Eleven store you don't okay it says god wanted you to have the car."

" they may take me. Kelly great to be with you."

" Well as an Bernie this is a great topic -- value really I mean we we all watched it admitted -- your book is very humorous it's it's just the it's just a great example of that you're you know what gets me Bernie is that -- it's. It's like this this. This Tina around Barack Obama it extends to his sleazy appointees. That's what I can't believe I mean you think that you also I every every other politician no matter how beloved by the mainstream media. They have problems may have to throw somebody under the bus and look at -- We can you imagine a Republican. Getting away with what Geiger got a Bill Clinton's appointees for attorney general couldn't get away with that."

" Yes that's a very good point and and the reason I think that this is Barack Obama. Has the magic. That none of the others had and it's a magic. That he could never have achieved without the help. I mean help that but even strong enough -- Without the it out -- support of the mainstream media they turned him into the purpose before but they turned him into a messiah. And and you know the -- those disciples. You know except for one -- Obama -- people love them too. So but you have to you don't look the same old -- disabled by as they cross the bright line this time. From media biased the media activism. Because of that because they have this they were -- noble historic mission. That's why this that's why not only the president but. Anybody close to him is going to be under this could. -- of oh oh well."

" Oh wonderful it's human being may be -- is just as I am I'm still lower Porter hard you don't. If I see a good story and I and I can use a good sound -- I don't -- why use it against him in just think given -- the -- Geiger didn't pay his taxes he was obviously a tax cheat with time to try to take a write off on the overnight camp. But no mainstream media people would have him trying to explain it was honest mistake and then this but that's sound by -- Joe Biden saying it's patriotic to pace to pay taxes I mean it's just such a natural we have all talk radio everybody on talk radio had a but the mainstream media I mean it's more effective cuts on TV any."

" All right I know I know though that's a great idea by the way sympathetic but the thing is -- that the very people you want to do that unite -- person you. The very people you you you expect or hope would do that the very same people who've been who who've invested. So much in him. That that he may be. I fear he may be too big to fail when I say I fear that doesn't mean I don't wanted to do well I do but I want the media to do its job and I think. They believe because of all the time and effort they've invested in them that thesis -- to historically important. To fail to historically. Important detail let me guarantee or something conservatives understand. The historical significance of this election just as much as liberals that we appreciated just as much as liberals do. But there wouldn't have been won one million of the slobbering. If we just inaugurated our first black president who was a conservative Republican. That would not have gotten. Any slobbering. Stephanopoulos. What -- have been crying you know about that yeah I know during the inauguration. Events and none -- thousand examples that you probably have -- finger."

" The leg tingling that's the obvious one give their -- Mathewson data."

" Thrill running up my by the way. Just say it's a commentator as you well know is entitled to comment. But what to say I had a thrill running up my leg is -- political political commentary it's a man -- You know I mean that isn't hardball let's -- people and and he also said by the way which didn't get nearly as much tensions. That if you don't cry. When you hear Barack Obama speak you're not an American. That's really -- he -- like the guy you could love the guy you can vote for the guy I don't have any problem with that but that's embarrassing that's part of that Sabrina that you're talking about."

" Bernie I saw over the weekend you know that quote you found there was on in on the front page of the Washington Post on Christmas morning. Right you you I'm sure you have a right front me tight tight."

" You know what I I don't but I can quote from it pretty pretty much verbatim."

" I mean that that puts that puts Chris Matthews man crush in the backseat."

" There are really does in this is that this is the most extraordinary piece of writing. Others with this this page one."

" And they said John John Updike the late John Updike good writing good sexy I mean this guy this guy is so much worse than John Updike yeah. Listen that's."

" This was -- again I don't have a right appropriate that this was Christmas morning page one. Part of the hillbilly Doucet. Put up the Washington. Post. And and it's again with this son. -- Honed from. Two weeks of body building. And time on the treadmill. And playing basketball. The son grandkids all -- pectoral."

" Those three words right there I'd never use in my newspaper column. I'm shocked really. Just you know wherever they say -- nicely chiseled its us some politician has been right definitely some some madre --"

" It began this on the -- hit off chiseled pectoral fifth is what you expect to read in a romance novel with Fabio on the -- I mean I mean seriously if somebody could tell me and I mean this seriously. If somebody can point out. A single more embarrassing sentence. Ever published in the Washington Post please let me know because I don't think in the long and storied. History of of the nation's capital's most important newspaper there's ever been a more embarrassing sentence up again. But this is about Barack Obama's exercise regiment the sun -- developed chiseled pectoral got top. That you're right that makes Chris Matthews you know look like Arnold Schwarzenegger. "

" I don't I used to be a city editor to -- it's before my reporters and handed that enemy I'd say you know kid. People read this tomorrow morning this one question they're going to be asked him and it's going to be about you I know we don't know and you know it's a question asks."

" questions like you know you made a very important point in in passing there and that is an editor would have said that. The newspaper reporter doesn't just what whatever he wants into the newspaper so that except this will not only written. By some guy at the Washington Post but probably two -- three editors. Let it go but -- what what. This is this just some magical Barack Obama this is the slobbering. Talking about he is under their spell. And."

" And you know still under his spell your daddy is. He's just a seed Albert -- overlap yeah -- what I worry about is is is how are you going to cover him. As president how are you honestly gonna cover him and keep them accountable hold accountable. If you slobbering over him like that that's that's a very important question. And and you know the only reason that Jefferson of the -- Thomas Jefferson the boys. Gave the press constitutional protections. It was a because they like newspapers they didn't actually. It's because they understood that a free press. Was the only watchdog against the very powerful government. I could do a lot of harm to a lot of them do the individual people but if nobody trust the media anymore and this one statistic in the book indicating. That liberals don't trust the Democrats don't trust the independence -- trust them and Republican conservative sure as hell don't trust them. Then what happens when that watch dog barks and nobody pays attention. We're going to be in trouble."

" Yeah yeah you know we keep talking I hear people you journalist. Especially print journalists saying well you know -- going to be like when now when we're not around the more. And sorry -- right no that's rice and -- for a newspaper still and I don't feel sorry for anybody I mean they -- and what what function they performing I mean the New York Times -- fake stories about does Sarah Pailin they picked up by Andrew Sullivan's. One -- about the you know whether or not she was really the father of that the the mother -- they they put her in the Alaska independent party without even -- recollection for -- or days agreement."

" but you know what they used this is very just think if what you said anyway. If if well does. You've brought her I didn't do that CNOOC Howie didn't do that you -- on yourselves. You know technology help because the Internet is killing newspapers. But there ideology. Is also burying them I mean don't they get well I know we have so they don't get it. They'd honestly don't think that they slobbering over him. They honestly don't think that they have this bias that's moved into media activism just like judicial activism. They don't get any of it and and much more important -- that they don't care what you think they don't care what I think and they don't care what any of the people listening to us."

" And that's story about the need adequate during the democratic convention in Denver the you know he comes onto the stage in the the people in the press -- start cheering. They started cheering. -- used to when I say you're I've seen people cheer at the state house annually they were always were as if you don't regarded after that is being somewhat. Eight people to be watched you know and now just part of its part of the Amal."

" You know it's like. This is so obvious to me I think it's obvious gifts to all Americans no matter who they voted for no matter. You know how they identify themselves politically. The media rolled over for Barack Obama and all these little examples. Our our proof of that and at and they they don't care that's the amazing thing they don't care."

" Now then they don't care they they -- not a not at all mean in the -- the -- double standard for you know for Republicans as opposed to call it's just -- let's take some calls here for Bernie Goldberg he's the author of a slobbering love -- the true and pathetic story of the torrid romance between Barack Obama in the mainstream media we have -- if you want to talk to yet but I you gotta -- here quickly with Joe. Ritchie are next with -- Bernie -- go ahead --"

" I went -- Howard. Goldberg got last procurement on this program on a matter of being in New York times' Noam -- matter your previous book -- the general direction. You'll you'll forgive me if you're -- ago and out. You know it will be mini correction in the tropical prediction. Did I make a correction."

" Did you did you get a -- nobody you know we're talking about always did you made the correction he says okay ritual I -- thank you Richard appointing an ice -- one -- I heard you talk to with a rally last week about the New York Times giving this loan for a month. --"

" at 14% interest. They're still had a good line we what was that the soprano was busy that they -- he's -- tied up."

" That's right -- final loan shark in Manhattan anymore yes. Gem here next with how we guard and Bernie Goldberg author author of a slobbering love affair go ahead gem."

" All are kept them all burn you up I just thought that was you bastard would stop trying to murder -- And she then you know dude anybody from the junior -- Cloud. It has any wants a private all of sudden -- shop pro -- and so and so once again. As opposed to -- bush."

" Right and then we can't tell you you know we're all Americans in this we've all got to get behind the new president Jim."

" They're I didn't finally I just won't watch some not so much you break -- some of -- that's birdie and that's useful to kind of do the hard research and and break down the numbers and I look a -- there's famous jump I'm going to just sit back and watch -- in god in the little open your voice their convent when they're talking about Obama when I mean you can see America they."

" let me say something this guy gets -- He gets all the little subtleties that it was bush before but now it's president Obama writes that -- ON. When you know somebody said the other day that and I didn't see this so I probably should -- about which double. Let's just say a major network. News person said the when when Cheney was wheeled out of the wheelchair during the inauguration. That. Some people say that he reminds them of Dr. Strangelove get on the wheelchair. What are some people -- I mean some people think that that Dick Cheney was the best vice president ever but he didn't say that."

" What did he also say it was like this Brokaw I think you're talking about right out yet Yemen but it's you don't didn't he also say that this reminded him of being in Prague during the."

" You know this is the kind of stuff that you know how are we shouldn't do it I'm going to throw up a source. I'm really getting sick right now. I mean this is like come on he's a politician. She's a politician. Lets hope he does well. Let's appreciate that historical significance. But. He's -- human being for -- outlet they treat have they really do treat him as if you were a messiah I -- that's not an exaggeration."

" Bush got 51% of the vote in 2004. And Keith Olbermann you know one on for two months every night about how we stole the election Ohio. Barack Obama got 52%. Of the vote -- it's a landslide it's a mandate like get off this -- back."

" It you know what's -- you know here's the point this stuff is hilarious. Except for one fact that is really really serious. I mean otherwise it's a riot disrupt that they're doing. That they're giving us material somebody told me I've been really running around all day but somebody said. That's some journalist just pointed out Barack Obama may be the most famous person ever to live on the planet earth."

" Yeah did to junior RD it's yeah. What I don't know about. How achieved this you know Bernie go what are you gonna do a media key -- you can't beat your head against the wall before and I'll tell you just approach it. Culpepper -- perfect.

" radar. But I just partially out of out of lord -- Local TV don't always spoke to Alabama inauguration of any rights they don't think he's the messiah it's crazy. People just like your 4 this guy ever. They can -- a lot with the truth and the -- What can demand to know how it was 46 you get ten years on almost trendy QP itself Barack -- that level."

" I think there was they -- there's no comparison to. Bad bad and you know Kennedy delivered a pretty pretty outstanding inaugural address. -- you know but it was just it was just taken in stride -- Bernie."

" Well I mean we do remember the famous line from it you know. You're -- like yeah well we do remember the famous client I mean."

" Well ask not -- other ones to you know let the war against the torch has been passed to a new generation X."

" Yeah in terms of absolute. You know plus analysis of the speech. I don't think that was -- is as good as a bunch of other speeches Barack Obama delivered. And and also put off by taking shots at bush was pushing the first -- I thought that was uncalled for. I think he should have been a little more gracious but nonetheless a lot of make clear. That even conservatives. Understand. How wonderful the inauguration ones except. I don't want to be carried away into some Camelot. Because we we have you know a new president who who the media is -- loved what. This slobbering is not helping not for the media that's going to cost them. It's gonna cost them their existence at some point."

" Exactly Bernie that's -- thing immediate sooner rather ironic -- a lot of the slobbering. Is is going on in publications that. Probably aren't even going to be around in for a year."

" It's because I can't think of any other business I've been thinking about that I can't think of any other business. Where they don't care about their customers they don't care what their customers think."

" The customers already voted -- but customers are gone."

" Right but the -- never. Did I mean seriously we're gonna save papers that are only online. Game in the not too distant future. Part of it is assist technology the Internet is killing of well part of -- I know real people who say -- by the New York Times anymore because I'm sick of their liberalism. The creeping into the --"

" I -- to the chorus I don't by the Boston Globe either they're out to kill me why am I gonna support of."

" Right so if that's the case we know real people who made a decision not because they'd rather get it for free on the Internet but because of this ideology. And they don't care I know some people out there listening. Even people who may like me are gonna say -- exaggerating I'm not I worked its CBS news for 28 years. They don't care what you think."

" Yeah right I agree I agree a lot of the a lot of newspapers don't it lot of media don't don't care what there -- customer strike thanks for the call their job now Richard next with how we card Bernie Goldberg author of a slobbering love affair the truly pathetic story of the toward romance between Barack Obama and the mainstream media go ahead --"

" Space back right I enjoyed well for the last sports bet Bernie they were great. -- Bernanke wearing out they can go after a guy like Joe The Plumber because he doesn't OK you're out there yet they have no trouble. I think guys they're they didn't -- all -- calm -- I don't agree 100 more common with Joba squabble would be unable to pay his taxes. They Geithner would be able could not pay his -- he would give them money to pay about."

" They -- yeah that's no more calls because your callers are a lot smarter than I am and -- sorting -- that is a great point that I didn't think up. But I hope you don't mind if I used that in future and -- I don't Joe The Plumber does either I have a chapter in the book if you if this sort is a very admirably good. But it's called -- the dirty rotten bastard. You know because that's how they treated you know. And and if Joe The Plumber doesn't pay taxes and this becomes you know stuff this was a bigger story than Watergate to a lot of people in the media. And yet. Here's a grown man who -- ahead of of the Federal Reserve --"

" Second smartest men in America after Barack Obama."

" Right and and he. He made an honest what are you want to call the thing that he did. And trashy it's well okay this isn't as -- as Joe The Plumber that was a great point that the parliament."

" Yeah edit the New York Times and again I read on line. Wrote an editorial saying we can't hold guy undertake any particular standard there's that darn tax code is just sold so complicated. So I got an idea. Uncomplicated. But. How hard drive I don't rookie got time for one more call yeah -- Tom you're next with how we guard Bernie Goldberg author of a slobbering love -- you can order off from our website how we -- dot com go ahead Tom."

" Dahlia I Marion -- LA -- you gotta go out but thanks very much out for really bringing about and the attention in the media about -- The bias let's -- because it. Earlier the bigger problem than just -- the hilarity but you know the fact that the media took the real watchdog for the government and they're certainly not doing their job and that's pretty much evident every day watch."

" The news right right and you will notice certain. You guys notice it. Democrats liberals conservatives -- Republicans. And and they don't care and Annika and then not only putting themselves in serious jeopardy they're putting Barack Obama in jeopardy too because nobody could live up. -- to two messiah standard that they set for."
