  Speaker 1: Here's your host, Alex Garrett, right off the bat. Thanks
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: so much for all the birthday wishes, and thanks so
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: much to the Yankees for an incredible birthday present of
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: being back. The Bronx Bombers are back. That's what the
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: New York Post says, and that's what's reality here. Fifteen
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: years later, fifteen years later, the Yankees are back in
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: the World Series and they'll face off against the Dodgers.
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: And it's funny because I'm wearing an NFL shirt today
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: and it hit me earlier today that this is a
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: super Bowl week. This is the Yankees and Dodgers Super
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: Bowl Week. The coverage, the interviews, it's gonna you might
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: as well have a media day for the World Series.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: That's how hype this series is going to be. And
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: do I make the prediction now, I'm in it on
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: social media. Yankees in five is my prediction. I hope
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: I'm right. I hope I'm right. But before we get there,
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: there is some news I want to get too from
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: the weekend. And actually even today, did you hear did
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: you hear that? Sixty Minutes has actually come out with
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: a statement about the quote unquote deceitful editing that President
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: Trump accused him of. When it comes to their Kamala
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: Harris interview a couple of weeks ago, but normally left
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: leaning Hill, the Hill actually gave us the side by
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: side comparison to the edited versus actual answer Kamala Harris
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: gave sixty minutes in a interview just a couple of
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: weeks ago. Here is a side by side comparison of
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: the clip in question.
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: Judge for yourself.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: But it seems that Prime Minister netanya who is not listening.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: Well, Bill, the work that we have done has resulted
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: in a number of movements in that region by Israel
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: that were very much prompted by or a result of
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: many things, including our advocacy for what needs to happen
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: in the region.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: But it seems that Prime Minister Netanyah who is not listening.
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: We are not going to stop pursuing what is necessary
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: for the United States to be clear about where we
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: stand on the need for this war to end.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: That is the comparison, and for me, any edited interview
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: by a network that supposedly and by a program that
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: has such prestige sixty minutes, that sixty minute ticking is
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: prestigious it's a prestigious sound effect as well, so any
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: editing that it admits to is journalistic malpractice. But what
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: I'll give them credit for is in this election cycle,
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: we need networks to hold themselves accountable, and today them
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: releasing this statement makes themselves accountable. You might not agree
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: with me on that, but I think it's a step
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: toward holding themselves at CBS and at sixty minutes accountable.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: The samreads as follows. Okay, President former President Donald Trump
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: is accusing sixty minutes of deceitful editing about our October
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: seventh interview with Vice President Kamala Harris. That is false.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: This is what they say. Sixty minutes gave an excerpt
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: of our interview to face the nation that needed that
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: used a longer section of her answer than that on
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: sixty minutes. Same question, same answer, but a different portion
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: of the response. When we edit any interview, whether a politician,
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: an athlete, a movie star, we strive to be clear, accurate,
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: and on point. The portion of her answer on sixty
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: minutes was much was more succinct, which allows time for
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: other subjects in a wide ranging, twenty one minute long segment. Remember,
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: mister Trump, pulled out of the interview with sixty minutes,
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: and the Vice President participated our long standing invitation, and
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: former President Trump remains open if he would like to
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: discuss the issues facing the nation and the Harrison interview,
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: we would be happy to have him on sixty minutes.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: I think sixty minutes being a bigger person here in
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: this regard that they're leaving the door open for President
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: Trump to take him up on that invitation, and I
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: think he should. If he's not going to debate Kamala
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: a second time, then go on sixty minutes. Be better
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: than her on sixty minutes. If that's what you're so
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: concerned about, Be better than her. Maybe he's worried they're
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: going to edit him in as well, But what do
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: you think of CBS admitting minutes admitting that they edited
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: for Face the Nation a different portion of the response
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: feels a little weird to me because journalistic integrity says
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: you leave the whole answer. I don't care if it's
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: for Face the Nation or for sixty minutes. You leave
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: it in. And if they call it succinct, does that
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: mean they think too VP Harris is long winded. You
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: think about that they call it more cistic. The answerments
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: she might have had the word salad happening, so they
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: had to cut it down for a twenty minute interview
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: with her. But this is her problem. She gets too
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: long winded, she starts deflecting, and even sixty Minutes had
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: to edit her. Should they have no But I think
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: you can turn this around and say, well, she might
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: have been too long winded for twenty one minutes. That
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: might be the reason here. But while it doesn't give
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: While that doesn't give sixty Minutes a pass on editing
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: and abandoning journalistic integrity, I do think they do deserve
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: kudos for actually holding themselves accountable and holding the door
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: open for President Trump to join their show, which he's
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: done before. But of course he also walked down on them,
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: so it's like a fifty to fifty with that. Now,
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: the other news story I want to get to is
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: there was an assassination attempt on Ben Njamanette, now who
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: this weekend, when drones attacked his vacation home. I guess
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: they thought he was there, and while there's minimal damage,
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: there's no doubt those drones are meant to kill him.
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: So many network doesn't call that an assassination attempt, then
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: they're not reporting correctly. But I will here on the
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: one leg up on news network, I will report that
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: that was an assassination attempt and I think Israel will
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: respond bigger and better. And why are we leaking and
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: surveilling Israel's plan? As I said last week, we had
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: a whole year to stop HMAS and we didn't. But
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: now they're surveilling Israel more closer than our enemies and
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: then our allies enemies the United States. That's scary. If
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: you're holding your allies with more surveillance than your enemies,
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: what does that say? And by the way, US Intel community,
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: are you aware that Ukraine is planning to have to
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: defend against only Russia but North Korea on November first?
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: This is a true story as well. November first, North
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: noc maybe in the mix to attack you Ukraine alongside Russia.
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: Have we heard a people about that from the Biden administration.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: This is why you got to read the papers like
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: I do and try to to give you that one
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: leg up on news as best as I can, because
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: there could be another enemy a joining Russia in the
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: attack of Ukraine and even Romania. And the story below
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: that is afraid of their lives now because they've been
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: attacked by drones, saying it's Russian connected. So by an
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: administration last few months, are going to defend our allies
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: or not. I don't know if Trump will do much better,
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: but at least when we have the Biden musication, they
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: better defend our allies while they're still in there. That's
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: my one leg up on news today. Defend our allies
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: Ukraine and Israel. Don't survey Israel and League plans help them.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: Don't just sit there and say they're just gonna be
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: an occursion again, this time by North Korea. Stop the
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: incursion by Noko right now before November first. And if
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: you're just finding out through this podcast for the first time,
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: that says a lot about the Intel community right now.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: They're so preoccupied with Israel that they can't help them out.
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: And then finally today I heard on Koreean Jean Prayers
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: press briefing. They said two billion dollars have been doled
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: out to help out hurricane relief. Two billion dollars, so
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: hopefully that's going the right resources and hurricane relief. Just
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: want to throw that out there on the one look
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: Up on Sports Network, on the one look up on
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: News Network. But sports is news because the Liberty have
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: their parade down Broadway this week. That's a good note
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: to end on today. The Liberty the first time, and
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: they bring on Women's and WNBA Championship to New York
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: and they'll be parading down the Canyon of Heroes. Hopefully
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: this network will cover it. We'll see, but for now,
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: I'm Alex Garrett. Stay focused, stay aware. We can enjoy
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: the Yankees run, but we've got to look out for
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: our allies at the same time. And that's what I'm
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: doing here at the One leg Up Network.
