" And 4694322. That's a toll free number about how -- car show at this time every Monday we're joined by max robins. He is a veteran journalist he covered the broadcasting industry specifically TV for many many years. And he is now an executive vice president of the paley center for media in New York City he's here. To. The answer your questions about TV thanks for being --"

" How is you know. Thought I'd point in my week irons and you yourself should you pollute our."

" I heard is Saeb city told me as soon as your are wrapped up with may UN you were going out -- for drinks with Ronan Tynan any truth to that."

" I have no comment that's off the record. But the the but but at this although I agency page six today our."

" No no well I don't know what they have I saw this the original story is -- I don't know what they."

" I have I have to say they have to have Syria and nice photo of Courtney Cox really yes yes who you know it's very -- town. All really -- that's how we united I have to say."

" It's fun isn't easy to get the New York Post around here is -- used to be it's easier to get in Florida believe it or not and -- in the Massachusetts."

" I gotta tell you how we -- Okay according -- I would say forty is 125."

" Really. I'll have to be checking that out. Max what's going on here without Fox's Fox News you know they're saying that you know they're. You know. I would hate to see Fox News get thrown in with these organizations that you know make up the phone we. Documents from the Texas Air National Guard -- that blow up trucks. To prove a point you know I mean why are they being you why is fox being smeared your by the White House and doesn't the White House know that the best way to respond to criticism is to ignore it."

" I think you're right Howard that this is really I practices. This is you know what we used to say don't give and fight with people -- ink by the -- fall and tank. And that's that don't -- a fight with -- with that news organizations like that's inaccurate in it. It only it only adds fuel to the fire I mean I don't think if if anything it helped Fox's ratings. And that not hurt them. Edit any and you don't and you don't attack the whole network there's a particular thing they picked like active over the top or something. You know go ahead and go at him directly but."

" where's the credibility factor -- when they're saying that CNN and MSNBC your better than fox and become."

" Yeah I mean I think that this I think that beat the that this is not a good strategy. I do think they wanted to engage him you know like when. You know went Bennett if it's basic for example went -- around the bend some things he said about the precedent debt. But but to take on the whole network get about it I mean so I was watching 1 of the Sunday morning -- yesterday -- said that. That. Every time well what when Obama went on O'Reilly. Helped Obama. You know what I mean yeah it's it's it's it is -- This is crazy I mean news this justices just crazy. To go on it and act like it never."

" And by the way I saw that fox Fox Business channel finally got a break today guess the some some mine environmental wackos put out a phony press release saying that the chamber of commerce the national chamber of commerce and changed its position on climate change don't know that did become pro polar bear some -- It was a fake and then everybody was run with that in Fox Business was the first the first network to what figure out that it was a hoax."

" Yeah I thought they they did I think I think they did what they can do now that that what -- it. Because the main network fox Fox News is doing so well you watch they're they're already pay more attention it got more resources to Fox Business channel. A part of it Harry your old buddy John Stossel apparently you and I roughed up pretty good. You know we can't because."

" Yeah you always say I somebody he was promoting himself on the Fox News Channel that -- knows that there are obviously trying to get people to come over and sim."

" And and what you know what whatever we we think about that you know recovering drug addict cowboys that I mean he does he would beat Scott but some contention in the he's doing the same thing he did for them Beckett back. That he did for MSNBC."

" I -- claim in my old friend from channel seven was talking about you know it's. Yeah I'm a good look at broad but you know I wanna be known as a journalist."

" It's a -- Less you'll let us. I don't know how fewer people you know we weren't -- a regular basis you might do with people just -- you've never been."

" Right let's -- had a picture of me in The Herald yesterday for mother in 1980s when I was and TV people are people actually say you volume when you weren't you weren't so bad looking."

" I I enough and yeah it -- it. The data really says I didn't we didn't believe you when you said you have brown hair. That's that it was like the only kid the world was born with a white hair. Who would call -- why what I lie about something like that time anyway. And 1877469432. To the the the other newspaper in town the broad sheet the struggling broad -- real story about how -- and it. Story. They -- just barely. They the the they ran a story about how Jay Leno is pulling down the ratings for channel seven has predicted and I get the feeling that. The reporter got a lot of help from channel seven's you know I I think channel seven has given up their crusade to get Jay Leno lot of that 10 o'clock slot. I mean is there is there a backlash over. Than other mute the channel seven's in Miami in Florida and and Boston is there -- backlash against Jay Leno building in the among the affiliates."

" I think Perez and I think you're gonna hear more but I. -- It is ratings don't pick up there's going to be a real problem peculiar then boy yeah what's going on I don't know it must be something going on in the building you're armed. Unfortunately I couldn't do it from work and our studio here today and I'm doing it -- my desk of course this is the 11 day I hear this ridiculous now. I don't know what's quality."

" big big true. But do whom I have been unfortunately it it's Roland tiny ring in the bell I do don't let them adds to our client side. -- I'm talking about how bad except thirsty it's good got a couple casual --"
