I am -- stay on the topic of what -- transpired in Wisconsin -- Get back to something I said it a little while ago and that's -- the mainstream media and and I -- include all of us in this.

But I I think that everybody would agree -- it that we do cover things differently.

And we look for those points of bias in media.

With our next guest Rich Lowry who is that Fox News contributor you often see him on FOX News Watch testified John Scott on Saturday afternoons at 2:30 PM -- started.

The replay -- 11:30 PM you start okay that's my blog.

Rich didn't see this morning hi Eric -- -- -- -- fabulous.

You say that.

Media is spinning.

The loss.

Of Tom Barrett -- -- Milwaukee mayor who couldn't get Scott Walker out of that seat in -- recalled it why do you say that well.

Kluivert MSNBC AME has just entertaining watching aspect they're almost like there on the verge of crying or vomiting or I mean that this is a network that it had gone -- law.

Although Wisconsin recall that had repeatedly said it was the most important question in American politics will be extremely momentous for the future of the country.

And and -- just debate looks.

Last night and then you have thing you know other room I'm more centrist outlets like the Associated Press all the sudden saying and I am that this -- that really matter very much.

But -- had a handy they have New York Times and as some alassane.

Actually this is big deals at big loss.

For labor -- May not determine the outcome that it the general election or necessarily mean that.

President Obama's gonna lose Wisconsin.

That is a very big deal I think that's being the right take.

Yeah yeah it's interesting and I I had -- this earlier it.

You kind of want to report the fact that truly it is a big deal because you want people to read and watch I mean this is this is one of those moments.

Did you actually consider people were turning back -- -- politics because it's like -- remaining being lulled to sleep a little that.

Yeah and lucky you know we all complain about suppose they -- -- it.

Our politics it is now it's alienating.

All sorts of people and you have -- nasty attack ads and it's -- -- Peggy Noonan wrote a column a few extra.

-- ads in politics acts are.

Horrible for our children because -- see I don't really think of us and they look at Wisconsin this nuclear battleground.

Perhaps higher than ever and it and I just think.

It shows people want.

A robust debate that's what it actually is all about it's going to be expensive it's that it it's -- -- this is -- going to be -- -- -- attack -- But and a -- -- first century democracy that's how you write about those Orton.

-- Up before I let you go I want to point out I'm looking at the headlines.

New York Times the headline walker survives Wisconsin and recall the Washington Post Governor Walker.

Survives recall in Wisconsin the Wall Street Journal recall bid falls and Wisconsin.

It insisting the wording I don't know I'm writing to -- -- Recent people -- surviving in some people have the other side falling.

I would have thought going into and that if you want to survive would be at the word to capture it that this was more than surviving I mean it was a bigger victory than he had.

When it elected first first time around the headline we -- on our.

Our on our web site was walker Walter.

-- Waltz all this -- -- victory.

I I just -- a little -- sure it's okay.

I'll quickly before let's ego encrypt -- a headline of the deliberation it must be good yeah I thought there.

I hear you bias -- yeah exactly where where you can't just urged.

Right exactly.

Before I let you go I I wanna get in one of our comments -- the live chat -- he's been prolific on the -- -- this morning.

The liberal media bias is truly unfortunate because it's the Americans lose out Americans should be allowed to view the -- free of bias or political framing to allow.

Of viewers to learn about the issues you know that that there is kind of a catch 22 with that now.

Most didn't don't wanna read the encyclopedia and they really don't wanna listen to it being -- out.

So a lot of times you'll see people say things just to kind of get your ear to tune in but what you're saying is -- more -- -- time.

Well I I agree entirely.

With -- crash but you know -- -- great things about our news media environment as -- such the diversity of sources and what.

Used to be easy.

Is a few pillars.

The media in this country to -- decided.

What the coloration of any story would be.

I don't have much less power than before just to do little mainly and I influential still worth bashing if they're biased.

But not much less -- want to let me to -- Wow that that's an interesting point and you always.

-- -- with Rich -- Thank you so much for joining us this morning and again you can watch him on Saturday afternoon when he appears on Fox News -- -- -- Fox News contributor with Jon Scott.
