  Speaker 3: Isn't there an exemption to the to the rule that

  Speaker 3: that's put on two people?
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: Well, yeah, there is an exemption if you're a news program.
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: You could put on a political candidate if you're a
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: news show. But the FCC has made it clear they
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: do not consider Colbert a news show. You know, The
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: View is under investigation for violating this equal time thing.
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: The View tried to claim they're a news show because
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: they do talk about stuff in the news, but you'll
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: never get away with it. The FCC does not believe
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: they're a news show because you got an actress, you
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: got a comedian. There's nobody there that's a newsperson, and
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: there are a bunch of goofy you know yent to.
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: There's a bunch of clucking hens. I don't think you'll

  Speaker 1: ever ever be able to come in, Zimbate. It's a
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: news show. Let's go to Vincent and Brooklyn. Vincent, how you.
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: Doing, Good morning, Mark? Mark, I'm okay, Mark, I don't
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: want your audience to think I'm some shylock who was
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: just interested in squeezing juice side of people. I want
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: to clarify something I said yesterday. This proposed nine percent
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: property tax that Mundamie's proposing is above the ten percent
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: property tax notice that I already received at the end
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: of January. And what most people don't know this goes
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: through everything. The power companies get a property tax increase,
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: and sometimes they're increased at fifteen percent or more because
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: when they send me the rate increases, they send Also
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: what building classification you are? Commercial? This, that, and the other.
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: The absolute worst with the property tax increases was billed
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: the Blasio. There were times when the homeowners in the
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: city would get fifty percent property tax increases. I got
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: one from him. Now, Adams, this slash property tax increase
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: I got in January. That was left over from the
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: Atoms administration and the whole day dug with all the illegal.
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Vincent, before we runt of time, you're an expert
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: on this because your own buildings, your own apartment plants.
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: Your landlord, my family, and I.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I know you're an expert. Just explain to everybody
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: when you get a property tax increase, you have to
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: raise the rent, right, you got to pass it along.
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: You have to because also what people don't understand. Your
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: electric rates are going to go up, your fuel is
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: going to go up. Because the con edison owns property,
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: the gas company owns property, your local oil delivery man
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: owns property, or woman they own property. All the goods
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: and services go up. Even as I told Chris that
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: cup of coffee from the corner bodega yes to go up.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: So the bottom line is when men Donnie does something
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: like this, increases the rent of everybody, middle income, lower
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: income rent increase Bock.
