this is the lester holt mentality. he's acting as if the difference between democrats and republicans, philosophical differences. different ideas of how we should move society. it's not akin to a dude feet about whether the sun rises in the east or west. it's differences in equality of opportunity or results. the policy applications, how long should we shut the country down. when should we open it up. mask mandates, are they effective? to treat these important issues of public policy which involve facts but they also involve values, so it's a simple matter of hey, these people are putting out misinformation we should basically begin arbiters of that. it's a complete misunderstanding of what journalism is all about. >> laura: i remember growing up watching "60 minutes" as a kid and they're still good people at 60 minutes but it was probing, they didn't expect the experts at their words. they kept asking question after question and follow-up. there was some skepticism but the skepticism is only going one way, towards con

i like to start with you in your top line thoughts, with lester holt's comments. where they call to action for journalists as arbiters of truth, but were they also given permission, and your thoughts on mollie hemingway postfix critics? >> tucker: they are grotesque! fairness is never overrated; fairness is sacred, always the goal not simply in journalism but in life! if you don't strive to be fair, you are certain to commit moral atrocities, but again, not just true for network news readers. by the way, when did newsreaders become philosophers? i think lester holt seems like a nice guy, but you don't turn to cluster hold deep think. he is saying that when -- you don't turn to him and for deep. there are plenty of things that we think we know that we don't smell! week, for thousands of years, invented -- that we don't know! we, for thousands of years, imagined the food pyramid was correct, i imagined last year that masks didn't work. the point of journalism is to continuously press against what we think we know, demand evidence, and show it to the public, not -- b

this is on the hills of what lester holt said. he said fairness is overrated. the idea that a contrary opinion should be heard or listened to is out the window. >> but our president got on national tv and called the georgia voting law jim crow. it's unbelievable! >> [applauding]. >> it goes back to facts don't matter. it's what you push out the door as a narrative. how you generate feelings because we are living in the age of stupid. go ahead. ask me a question. i will answer anything. >> greg: do i have to? the next segment is on din sauers. i can listen you to ramble on or jump out of this it. >> this is fascinating. >> greg: you have great things to say about dinosaurs? >> yes, who doesn't. >> can my 3-year-old watch this next segment. >> greg: upnext jurassic park is not just a lark. ♪let's make lots of money♪ ♪you've got the brawn♪ ♪i've got the brains♪ ♪let's make lots of♪ ♪uh uh uh♪ ♪oohhh there's a lot of opportunities♪ with allstate, drivers who switched saved over $700. saving is easy when you're in good hands. allstate click o

lester holt said he seemed relaxed and confident and it is clear he is picking things that are popular, big price tags the popular. if i had $6 trillion more on top of what i was allowed to spend i can sound great during a state of the union address to the joint session of congress by laying out things to spend money on to make your life better and never explain how to pay for it besides tax the rich. >> not a thought provoking critique by any member of the media to the biden speech but a much tougher tone on senator tim scott's rebuttal, cnn and msnbc trashing it, take a listen. >> a speech delivered from a planet where facts don't matter which is where the current republican party resides. >> it is ordinarily partisan speech for tim scott. >> this is standard. >> america is not a racist country, there is no racism here. not sure what the purpose of this was. >> where do folks like nicole wallace, republican as much as i'm starting center for the next, saying his views on race, call it what it is, isn't that literally the unconscious bias that lives all the time in front of our eyes?

this is their words, jim remember, jorge ramos, lester holt, they said to us that they are not empirical, deductive, e the news cannot be reported as it used to be with the pretense of deductibility. to finish, they believe that because the hard left in the racially obsessed who hijack their own party means that they can hijack america. that is what the $64,000 question is, are they right or not? i do not think they are but because they did this to the democratic party they will do this to the entire country and they want to be on the winning side. >> tucker: you can't let them come of their destroyers. i write that when you speak, i write down and i just love your line, they're not interested in the news, they see on the opportunities that's exactlyha right. they are thinking in a different way than the rest of us. i appreciate you coming on tonight, thank you. >> thank you. >> tucker: the latest episode of "tucker carlson today" funded at.c foxnation.com. he spoke to a immunologist about the vaccine and one of the most interesting conversations. you'll c come out reassured abot the vac

police officers in portland, oregon, -- a 24-year-old suspected of multiple firebomb attacks during lester's violent riot. police say he through this incendiary device pictured here at the officers, accused of costing tens of thousands of dollars in damage. 15 girls accused of a carjacking -- they are expected to reach a plea deal. the girls, just 13 and 15, are charged as juveniles. if they are found guilty, they could be held at a detention facility only until they reach 21. if they are considered rehabilitative before that, they could be out much sooner. the suspect they are looking for in connection with the deadly crash involving what family members say was a stolen car appeared to be minors. they hit another car early sunday morning at one of the people in that car it was later pronounced dead at the hospital. piers morgan eight speaking exclusively with our own tucker carlson on fox nation. the former host standing by his previous comments on meghan markle and prince harry. >> i believe meghan markle, but of huge flurry erupted through the day. i was not allowed to have an opinion tha

yet if you watched the nbc nightly news last night with lester holt -- remember, that joe still gets eight or 9 million viewers a night, you saw two very key parts of the story left out. first of all, editing a crucial 911 call where one girl who is being attacked says "she is trying to stab us." that is with a police officer is told. there is somebody trying to stab somebody. they also did not show the knife and the attacker's hand. then what we have here is by not showing those two things in terms of the 911 call incomplete and in terms of the knife. the narrative gets close of blod other viewers are believed led e this is a rogue cop. >> john: you have done a good job of the summation of what nbc did last night. let's show it to folks and they know exactly what you're talking about. listen here. >> we need a police officer here now. >> with the video shows is the female with a nice attempting to stab the first female. >> fired four times, striking bryant. officers are seen and heard performing cpr. body camera footage shows a knife on the ground. >> i don't know how many packages

i said in july lester joe biden became president because all the promises he made that you just listed very well that we would lose the border. we have lost the border appeared why? because joe biden has shown up in this country to win the progressive left vote and he was more important to him to win election become president than to secure our nation and because of that 31% of women are being raped, children are dying, children are being abandoned, cartels are making millions in the border patrol is the lowest ever seen in my career. steve: sarah, weigh in on that too but to start the conversation with you i wanted to just put up something we saw just tonight from a news letter where there noting accurately coverage of the southern border crisis and in their word subsides and the media has moved on and according to the data of what's been covered elsewhere so you are there actually reporting on this and giving us that information. it seems to me the media just wants to cover for biden and they don't want to talk about this because at such an embarrassment to them because they support

[shouting] >> nightly news anchor lester holt did mention the knife during the segment but media critic joe concha says he owes his viewers an apology. >> the stakes are far too high and don't tell me this was an innocent mistake at something that was left on the editing room accidentally. >> meantime the girl who was nearly stabbed by a ma'kiah bryant was referred to as someone who was closer to bryant she was shot. she then appears to agree with the gas that says the deadly use of force was not appropriate, here's a sample. >> i look at that video and i asked that were my child or if my child was still close to ma'kiah when she was shot, what would have happened? i think a lot of people are asking that. >> it is notable that both abc news and cbs did show the body cam video of the girl holding a knife and did play the 911 call that mention the stabbing. this week cbs was criticized for not showing video of 13-year-old adam toledo appearing to toss a gun moments before he was shot and killed by police. >> trace gallagher, thank you. first up and tonight's real news roundup, the quick t

and, you know, this is their own words, jim christian amanpour, jorge ramos, lester holt they have all said to us that they are not empirical. deductive the news cannot be reported as it used to be. to finish, tucker, they believe that because the hard left and the racially obsessed to hijacked their own party means that they can also hijack america. and that's what the $64,000 question is. are they right or not? i don't think they are. but they think because they did this to the democratic party, they are going to do this to the entire country and they want to be on the winning side. >> tucker: can't let them. they are destroyers. i sometimes right down when you speak. i write down because i want to remember it. i love your line they are not interested in the news they see only opportunities. i think that's exactly right. they are thinking in a very different way than the rest of us. victor davis hanson, i appreciate your come on tonight. thank you. >> thank you. >> tucker: well, the latest episode of tucker carlson today is out. you can find it at fox nation.com. pretty easy to find
