-- segment tonight the decline of the American Media continues headline news is affiliated with CNN.

It was set up to give Americans a quick summary of today's events but a few years ago its prime -- programming he began featuring opinion.

But there's obviously trouble at headlock as standards over there are now -- question let me prove my point.

Actress Ellen Barkin recently told the Los Angeles Times that the Tea Party is a very very bad thing.

And that Fox News lies to promote.

Tea Party values.

Okay and this market is entitled her opinion even though she did not give the newspaper.

Any examples of lies and the times -- dot challenger.

Very simply the LA Paper saw fit to print.

The -- Then then.

Ms.

-- continues or dishonest behavior on headline news with joy -- are on Monday night.

This is something not a fan of fox -- I am now -- I got you in trouble for the you've got in trouble for saying man.

Why I don't know what I'm very flattered that I'm Alan Bill O'Reilly radar tell he was hit -- head hit Diddy I'll probably -- -- call -- -- washed -- has -- -- -- -- celebrity.

And it -- -- at a very you know good.

Down yeah that's that's always the same so -- -- -- Well there's probably -- and state the flat out lie.

I have never mentioned Ellen Barkin on this broadcast.

Have.

And I would never call earnings.

Now we know ms.

-- are we know what she'd office and today HL and announced she will no longer be doing it on that network ratios finished at the end of the year.

But the headline news operation and CNN which is a parent company.

Have an obligation not to allow blatant lies on their air -- to challenge statements that are provocative like that -- So we have asked HL plan to issue a written apology.

Also asked ms.

Barkin and it's very hard to do the -- We'll let you know what happens but the bigger issue with the tremendous decline in the American Media.

South totally acceptable in many precincts to print or broadcast flat out falsehoods.

Not even -- -- their confirming anything.

Earlier this week my -- killing like it was attacked falsely the Washington Post for his stuff that was outrageous never bothering you call me.

We'll deal with the people who put out those falsehoods and our -- and patriots have been a bit -- Iraq and the smears don't just affect controversial guys like me.

All politicians and famous people are targets.

Any accusation becomes a front page headline and you wonder why good people don't run for office.

Intelligent Americans well understand the media is now in business to destroy.

Not to -- In the big picture what Ellen Barkin says not important.

As I said she's -- title hold any opinion about any thing.

But this market and headline news are not entitled to lie on -- worldwide television.

They are not entitled to do that.

It is long past time for we the people to stop ignoring the tremendous decline in the American Media.

We have garbage 24/7 on television we have outrageously harmful things on the Internet.

And we have a system whereby famous people cannot sue because they are public figures.

That is harming our country dramatically.

Again we ask headline news to correct the situation.

By issuing an apology and pledging not to do that kind of a thing again.
