local news. david smith the executive chairman said this. i have never seen a single article about us that is reflective of reality. the media is so left wing which is why it will fade away. just no credibility. emily: they should say they are the counter-balance. they should say we are balancing out all this other stuff. what they are doing is exploiting the concerns about media bias for advertising purposes. bill: when david smith says the print media serves no real purpose. does that include the "wall street journal"? the washington examiner? the washington times, "the weekly standard"? the national review? i think you are touching on something. this whole story, the real story is the largest tv broadcaster in the country are applying to buy 42 more. i think the media mergers between at&t and time-warner are something we ought to be concerned. the rules say you can only cover 39% of the country. this will make it 70%. emily: i agree on that. howie: after our break, exclusive look at how facebook decide whether disputed stories are true or false. a new site that fact checks the fact

silly. why do i mention sinclair broadcasting -- were not for david smith on the sinclair broadcasting group, i would not be on television groups -- stations across the country. sinclair broadcasting group gave me that opportunity. you have to be careful. you don't want a heavy hand in the newsroom. i know onalists that the left and the right really want to have integrity. they really want to do what is right. they really want to be fair and honorable in their reporting, which is very difficult sometimes. so, the newsroom you leave alone. what you do have -- you have what is called commentary. sometimes at the end of my broadcast i may offer a 30-minute commentary. i feel so strongly about what is going on with guns, going on in florida, with terrorism, the economy, daca -- i don't want it to spill out into my newsroom. i will step away and offer a commentary that is my own where i give my opinion. you will see those commentaries -- it is unscripted, my opinion, it is what i believe. it never spills over to the news department because i have the opportunity included on other shows that

commissioners. my name is david smith. i'm san francisco taxi medallion buyer number 1148. and i'm here to speak about the now-failed medallion sales program. you guys are obviously all aware, i'm sure you are, of the current lawsuit with -- from the credit union against the sfmta. this is not a simple case of buyer's remorse. we've been dealt a very bad hand by many people involved in all of this. people are not defaulting on these loans because they simply had a change of mind or they didn't make enough money. they're hemorrhaging. they're working at a loss. the medallion is an absolute money pit. it's not even worth half of that. $125,000. it's at $250,000. it's not even worth $250. it's not even worth 250 cents. most of us waited 15-plus years for our prop k earned medallions, but we played ball. we purchased our medallions. let's not forget that the mta withheld medallions from the public when public demand for taxis was at its peak. why? to make room for the medallion sales program. that was not in the public's best interest by any means, but we played ball. now, whether inte

is with me. you had an experience with david smith, long-time ceo. tell us what he put in an e-mail message. he said to you the print media is so left wing as to be meaningless drivel which accounts for why the industry is and will fade away. no credibility. what did this tell you about his bent? >> i think he meant meaningless drivel. it's not shocking for us to hear from a far right politician someone running for office these sentiments. but media executives in america, which he is. he was under the radar until recently, it's shocking to hear such a blanket statement condemning the media. i've been talking to people at sinclair in the fall, and at the time the big issue were those must-run segments that they would air overnight. people were embarrassed by them. when he said that to me, i didn't know what to make of it. i think it's pretty extraordinary the way that they were able to turn this into a mainstream story, this kind of difficult to understand thing about contracts -- >> in local markets and stuff. >> exactly, and how important local news is. my aunt diane watches someon

says it would be good for steve smith, david warner and cameron bancroft to be given the chance to play county cricket in england over the coming months. smith and warner are serving one—year bans while bancroft is out for nine months of their part in a ball tampering scandal in australia's series in south africa last month. in a way i feel really sorry for them. you know, i can understand they were really stupid, they have paid a massive price for it. i know steve smith would be absolutely gutted. cameron bancroft isa absolutely gutted. cameron bancroft is a new guy on the block, so for him it would be really hard to swallow. for them to be missing the amount of cricket they are missing is tough on them. so yes, if the ecb allowed it, it would be good for them to keep playing, because i think they have paid a big price already. neil robertson has been knocked out of the world snooker championship. he lost 10—5 two robert milkins in their first round match. so far it has been a tournament full of shocks. the defending champion mark selby went out in the first round, as did form

. david smith from sinclair says media has no purpose. the media is so leftwing to be meaningle meaningless drifl which accounts for why it will fade away. sinclair faces fierce criticism of its own, shows tv anchors reading word for word a promo slamming fake news. sinclair owns more than 170 tv stations across the country, could add to that if the plan to purchase tribune media gets federal approval. president trump supported in support of sinclair writing the fake news networks, those with a sick and biased agenda are worried about competition and quality of sinclair broadcasts. trump went onto attack three of four major networks, many are sinclair affiliates. the president's morning tweetathon included attack on amazon, his new favorite target. i am right about amazon costing the united states post office massive amounts of money for being their delivery boy. amazon should pay these costs plus, and not have them borne by the american taxpayer. many billions of dollars, po leaders don't have a clue, note the way he spelled borne. hours later, during a round table a reporter a

the air of a certain intellectual legacy that goes back to adam smith and david hume and the great thinkers of 18th century scotland. and i think the other advantage that they gave me was to think of history as a branch of literature. so there were history books in the house, but side by side with the great works of fiction. and so i was introduced as an -- at an early stage to the idea that above all history must be literature. it must be readable. a.j. p. taylor was a historian who occupied some pace on my parent's book shelf and that inspired me to find history attractive as an intellectual endeavor, but also as a literary endeavor. brian: your college education, how extensive was it and where was it? niall: well, extensive was a funny word to use. because, in some ways an oxford , education is intensive. one reads history. i spent three years as an undergraduate at oxford reading history. that was a wonderful opportunity . i had grown up in glasgow. to me oxford was nirvana, a kind of promise land of not only stunning architecture but also , brilliant minds. i couldn't believe

there. i do what you said, go back to classical economic theory. by classical, adam smith, david ricardo, and karl marx. what distinguishes them from modern day is how they thought about value was through emphasizing the objective conditions of production. you first had the theory of value were you look at division of labor, technological change, how it was affecting it -- by the way, how we do today with robots -- and they use that to come up with a theory of price. current modern economics, taught all over the world, does the opposite. it has a. price.as long as you have a -- it has a. price and as long -- it becomes a theory of price. tom: a friend writes about a labeling. karl marx and person to shut. do you drivemarx forward for a ceo today? they will go, she is out of print mind. what part of classical marx can you pull forward to 2025? mariana: when of the interesting things about marx's he was different from adam smith. they had the labor of value but smith had a production boundary where he called productive all the people who work inside factories and different types of industr
