This, too, is classic. Folks, I have no feel for something. You and I know, and a lot of places that we spend time and read and consult, there is a consensus, a huge consensus that the media has reached a new low.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_128364\" class=\"img_middle\" align=\"middle\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Hillary-Media-Screen-TV.jpg\"\/><line xmlns:tmp=\"http:\/\/ez.no\/namespaces\/ezpublish3\/temporary\/\">Even some members of our establishment, even some in the Republican establishment, in the conservative media who are standoffish to the media \u2019cause they consider themselves to be part of it and friends with other members are commenting on how the media today has reached a new low, literally the bottom of the barrel, literally so low that when they look up they see the gutter.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s countless professional people who are saying they have never, ever &#8211;everybody\u2019s known the media\u2019s biased. Everybody\u2019s known the media\u2019s a bunch of leftists, but never before, people are saying, have they seen the media so publicly throw away every pretense of journalism, in public, with smiles on their faces and with pride, just abandon all concepts of journalism, integrity, fairness, objectivity, to throw in with the Democrat candidate. They\u2019ve never seen it like this before. It still remains to be seen, however, dot-dot-dot.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Not only, ladies and gentlemen, did the New York Times not publish the hacked emails from University of East Anglia &#8212; it\u2019s in the U.K. If you\u2019re new to the program, those emails were emails between scientists and researchers, and the emails clearly demonstrated how they were faking data, doctoring data. When they produced data that damaged their premise that man was causing climate change, they discussed how to alter the data, either in the historical record or current results so as not to disrupt their premise that humanity and the advancement of life is causing climate change.<\/p>\n<p>Somebody at East Anglia got fed up and sick and tired of reading about all this, \u2019cause they knew what was going on, they knew of the fakery, they knew of the fraud, they knew that this consensus of scientists &#8212; there\u2019s no such thing as a consensus if science anyway, so they hacked the emails at East Anglia to prove &#8212; and there were scientists in the United States that were caught up in this. Anyway, the New York Times refused to publish any of them on the premise that they were illegally acquired via a hack, and that means we can\u2019t touch them, we can\u2019t publish, they\u2019re illegal.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, do you know what the New York Times did? The New York Times and the Washington Post began an investigative project to learn the identity of the hacker. The New York Times and the Washington Post wanted to track down the hacker who hacked the emails at the University of East Anglia so that he could be held up to public ridicule. They wanted to accuse him of lying. They wanted to accuse him of making it up. They could never find the guy, but that\u2019s what they tried to do.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_128360\" class=\"img_middle\" align=\"middle\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Media-LINEUP.jpg\"\/><line xmlns:tmp=\"http:\/\/ez.no\/namespaces\/ezpublish3\/temporary\/\">Now, imagine if things were similar here, the New York Times being presented with the three pages from the Trump tax return of 1995, if they were engaging in the principles, high principles, time-honored principles of journalism which nobody believes in anymore, then they would begin an investigation into who sent those pages to them. They would want to find out who put them in a manila envelope and mailed them to one of their reporters. And they wouldn\u2019t stop until they found out who it was so that they could hold them up for public ridicule.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>Except of course that\u2019s not what\u2019s happening. What\u2019s happening is the Times wants more. Now, as I was saying before the break, folks, we have a bifurcated society. We have varying degrees of our population being informed. Some are rank amateur idiots; some are oblivious; others are greatly up to speed on things. We don\u2019t know the numbers. We do know that for the first time in our lives there\u2019s practically a unison of agreement on our side of the aisle, even among establishment media types that are Republican or conservative generally don\u2019t attack the Drive-By Media because they don\u2019t want to be ridiculed by them, they want to be considered part of the club, they\u2019re going after them, too.<\/p>\n<p>There is an overwhelming acknowledgment now that never has the media so publicly abandoned what its job is. It isn\u2019t media anymore. It is literally a Democrat Party campaign organization. Now, the question is, I know where media ranks in these surveys we get of American people explaining and ascertaining how much of each industry they respect. And we know that in all of these surveys, the media ranks near the bottom when people express their support for or their disgust with or their respect for an institution. The media is at the bottom. Okay, fine.<\/p>\n<p>You have the Trump story here. How many of you really think that our take on this is going to be the majority take versus how many of you believe, despite most people thinking the media is at the bottom of the barrel in respectability, how many of you think the majority of people are going to believe it, are going to think Trump has somehow engaged in a scandal here, are not going to know or not going to accept what the New York Times has done and how illegal this is. How many of them do you think will say, &#8220;It may be illegal, but I\u2019m not looking past it, \u2019cause look, Trump, look at all the money he lost, I can\u2019t ignore that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Yeah, but there isn\u2019t a crime there. Doesn\u2019t matter. My question, despite how many people say they don\u2019t respect the media and despite how many people realize the media is as biased and committed to the Democrats as ever, how many people will choose to ignore them? That\u2019s what we don\u2019t know. But that also is the big factor in this campaign because Trump is not of Washington, he\u2019s not of the establishment, and he has attracted interest precisely because of that.<\/p>\n<p>And so what are the odds that a larger number of voters than ever before will realize what\u2019s going on here and not fall for this? Because the people that support Trump already know and already despise what the Washington establishment and the media complex has become. This is the kind of thing that the Democrats do on every Republican candidate. Four years ago it was Harry Reid saying he had a friend who told him that Mitt Romney didn\u2019t pay any taxes. He had no proof, he had no evidence, and the media didn\u2019t care. They simply reported it as Harry Reid &#8220;alleges.&#8221; And then they went off and asked Romney about it.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_128361\" class=\"img_middle\" align=\"middle\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/ReidDespicableReid.jpg\"\/><line xmlns:tmp=\"http:\/\/ez.no\/namespaces\/ezpublish3\/temporary\/\">It ended up hurting Romney, there\u2019s no question in my mind it did, as did the idea that Romney didn\u2019t care about animals \u2019cause the dog on the roof of the station wagon during the family vacation. They succeeded in destroying Mitt Romney despite every allegation they made being untrue. And they are repeating the process now with Trump. How many people are going to believe it now? Will Trump lose any support because of this? I don\u2019t think that\u2019s going to happen because I think people supporting Trump, in large measure, are doing so because they\u2019ve reached their maximum disgust level with stuff like this.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>Their sophistication is such that they are not going to abandon a candidate under attack like this. They\u2019re not going to let this work. But as always, we don\u2019t know how many of them there are. This Nigel Farage from Great Britain, the guy that ran the Brexit effort, is claiming that American polling is gonna duplicate British polling. British polling did not find all the opposition to the U.K. staying in the European Union. The media in the U.K. thought that the vote was going to resoundingly be to stay in the European Union. And on the day of the election, they were shocked and blown away when a majority of people voting wanted to get out of it.<\/p>\n<p>The Brexit vote won and Nigel Farage is saying the same circumstance exists here and the same result is gonna happen. I don\u2019t know how he knows. Well, he doesn\u2019t know. It\u2019s just his opinion. All I know is I\u2019m sick and tired of this kind of phony baloney, plastic banana, good-time rock &#8216;n\u2019 roller obvious character assassination work. I\u2019m tired of it working. I\u2019m sick and tired of it working. I\u2019m sick and tired of the corruption winning. I\u2019m sick and tired of the fraudsters getting away with it because not enough of the American people know enough or care enough to react to it in the right way, or for whatever reason.<\/p>\n<p>Because this corruption is destroying every institution and every tradition that has defined this nation and its greatness. And it sets out to destroy anybody who wants to maintain those traditions and institutions or strengthen them. And I\u2019m like you, I\u2019m fed up with these people prevailing. But this is what the left has wrought.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I\u2019ll tell you what else to keep an eye on. With this hurricane coming, the media\u2019s gonna shift to it 24\/7. Now that they\u2019ve got the story established that Trump\u2019s got a scandal with the tax returns, they\u2019ll shift to the hurricane, probably tonight or tomorrow. And very little else is gonna permeate. My guess, wild guess. Could be wrong, but we\u2019ll see.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Now, what they are trying to do with the comments of Mayor Giuliani, Rudy Giuliani, who commented on Trump and his tax returns and the carryover loss of $916 million.
