-- lovely news organization MSNBC has announced that it is parting ways with Patrick.
Now the former presidential candidate had been serving a four month suspension.
Have to liberals expressed outraged all of us some of the material in his latest book suicide of a superpower.
In a statement released last night MSNBC said quote after ten years we have decided to part ways with Pat Buchanan.
We wish him well.
And of course liberals including those immediate matters are.
Breathlessly applauding that news today joining me now exclusively right here on Hannity.
To tell his side of the story is the author of suicide of a superpower Patrick.
Because -- say permanently out of exile.
Well I think still team six -- extricated nation on.
But I can't give up the details of it.
I'll have fair enough I understand that looks like you're at a at a book amendment to do -- there with a with a pretty big crowd as I understand.
I let let me run and gun.
Let let let's get into this a little bit -- and when you came on this program and -- you have been involved -- is some history here.
You were involved in -- -- one of them that the pioneered debate cable shows.
And cable which was called crossfire.
And that programs just remind people who the people -- you would interview over those years.
Told -- we brought on because what we wanted to do which introduced.
People to America that they've never heard they just read about we read we brought in Mallorca -- we brought in -- -- of the JPL.
David duke came on the air minister for our -- who really could fill up Yankee Stadium they all had where people send our extreme ideas.
But my idea and journalism most people should hear this they should -- -- -- confronted and challenged.
In real debate.
And the show where is the highest rated show on cable for years and years of course we only -- CNN.
But that's my idea of journalism.
What bothers me about what's going on now Sean is -- It is quite clear that the people media matters and the others are saying what Buchanan says.
Doesn't deserve to be heard.
We don't wanna challenge yet it's simply should be purged from the -- and all of these groups and I think I think you're engaged in a blacklist Sean.
Yeah I blacklist of conservative and traditional -- While in -- on the heels -- this investigative journalism by the daily caller about media matters.
And an enemy's -- corroboration with the White House say that they are confirming.
Targeting the Fox News Channel because it allows some conservative voices on here.
So I think we are -- were really getting to the root of an organized campaign to smear and slanderous statement ties destroyed.
And ultimately silence conservative voices do you think that's part of this thing.
I think this is exactly what we're dealing where there are elements in our society and their predominantly on the hard left.
-- say it's no longer enough to challenge and contradicted defeat our fight these fellas and arguments.
We got a -- them stigma -- them as racists are homophobic.
And there we got -- silence and censor them and the way we do is go after the media outlets.
Did put them on there and they go after your newspapers and carrier column.
Or get him off your network otherwise we're gonna go after the advertisers.
And they worked behind closed doors Sean because Rivera today is Al Smith said.
Nothing on American can live in the sunlight.
And this is on American what is going on right now and I commend and quite frankly recommend Tucker Carlson for the fight -- -- the daily caller put non.
Yeah I do too.
You know -- and -- in your book came out I've I've watched you all those years on crossfire you work for NBC now for a decade pat this is.
You your views.
We're not exactly unknown to them prior to you coming on that network.
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- You know I would think that.
You know you that you -- -- with one lone voice that I can actually think of that and different point of view in many ways.
But it is seriousness I've read your writings -- watch strong crossfire I watched you over the years interviewed you over the years.
I don't see that your views have changed.
So what happened here -- you know.
Well Sean this is this is -- this is the thing clearly when I was with Richard Nixon we won 49 states in the White House.
And I would have Ronald Reagan and we won 49 state.
Buchanan's views could could be fairly considered I think senator -- has pretty much where the country was out of the majority of the country.
I haven't moved up.
All and the fact that the views I held down and express which did very well in elections.
And I express when I did well in the -- elections ninety -- 96 in the Republican primary for three million -- There are no longer to certain people.
They not only -- -- can detest these views they say the American people can't hear them should not hear them.
And Sean what you gotta ask yourself what is your problem they can't be afraid of -- -- -- and -- think I'm not gonna be a senator.
They are afraid of the ideas we express because they fear the people they're afraid people listen and say wait a minute.
Maybe that -- supply.
And then there are good when I call -- smiling that little orthodox these aren't Carol you know it's funny.
