is -- "the new york times," you believe "the new york times" would not have published it if they had not confirmed it was a senior trump administration official. >> i'm sure that it could be one of a bunch of people. all i can say is i've never heard this before. i'm going to judge the president by the results. and i like what he's doing with judges, what he's doing with the military, what he did with taxes. and that will matter in my world. in my world, when "the new york times" speak, most of us don't listen. nothing against the paper, but it's sort of seen as the voice of the left. >> because the author of this article -- >> because it is. >> -- talks about successes, and you refer to successes of the trump presidency, and according to this senior administration official have come despite, not because of the president's leadership style. >> yeah. >> and this also author says, this president represents a danger to the u.s. and i know you're interested in foreign policy. in public and in private, the author writes, president trump shows a preference for autocrats and dictators such

new york times and she suggests people who don't like the piece should call the new york times. how unhelpful would shah have been to you. i would not have enjoyed that. it is worse than childish. what the trump 5 administration is trying to do is de—legitimise the press and i can't think of a single mainstream politician who has done that in re ce nt politician who has done that in recent times. it is dangerous and an awful thing to see and for trump to say that this is treason, that expressing opposition to his behaviour and his policies is treason is truly alarming. behaviour and his policies is treason is truly alarminglj behaviour and his policies is treason is truly alarming. i was thinking, when we talk social media and alan might have a thought on this, we talk about how people leak things on social media, when you have something as big as a story like this, it is interesting that they go to a established plat fors. the —— platforms, the only way it gets the world interested if it is in something like the new york times. so perhaps there is a place for newspapers i

. >> you mean you didn't write the thing in "the new york times"? >> yeah. >> yeah. >> yeah, no, i never write -- >> you just read, i know you didn't write that. you had a lot of help with that. >> no, yeah. >> you know, again, i think you're right. i think they're focusing on the wrong thing. how do you make it better? they have no concern about that it appears on how we make this better. the concern is let's catch this person because they're giving away our dirty little secrets. it's the wrong place to be in. >> 100%. >> and i do think that if this is true, maggie haberman is good, "new york times" reporter saying kelly's got his list, he's doing it, going around affidavits, lie detector test. he's not being the adult in the room. this isn't how you deal with political scrutiny. they can make the case this is about national security. i don't see it. i don't see the proof. what national security was betrayed? i don't think that this is the right way to approach it. i think they're only making it worse. >> have we had denial from kelly? >> nope. >>

thank you. >> we have breaking news tonight from the new york times about "the new york times" and the panic "the new york times" has created within the white house. the times is reporting that the white house has discussed senator rand paul's idea to use polygraph tests on senior officials of the trump administration. here is the times report tonight. senator rand paul of kentucky recommended that the president force members of his administration to take polygraph examinations, and there was at least briefly some discussion of that among advisers to the president. another option mentioned by people close to mr. trump was asking senior officials to sign sworn affidavits that could be used in court if necessary. one outside adviser said the white house had a list of about 12 suspects. and joining us now by phone is new york times chief white house correspondent peter baker, who is one of the reporters on this article. and, peter, this is an extensive look at what "the new york times" has created, the crisis atmosphere it has created inside the trump white house. what more have you learn

first, reading from the front page of the "new york times." the facts are still in dispute about a bitter he said, she said case. a supreme court confirmation drama unfolding but lawmakers are being accused of a lack of sensitivity and some prominent politicians are saying hey, what's the rush? we need a little more time to follow up on the accusations and allegations. all of this playing out in washington, a city where men have always made the rules and the senate is an overwhelmingly male club. this case is sending what one expert called an electric current of anger through women and a greater conviction women must be represented in high places in greater numbers. all of that from "the new york times" from the fall of 1991. days before another senate confirmation hearing. the title of the story by the way was my maureen doud. the title was "the senate and sexism." it was about the male club was mishandling anita hill's allegations against clearance thomas. 27 years later, some of the same men in the same club are in charge of a sequel of sor

that was in the "new york times." but first this is a warning for millions of people along the east coast as florence has officially regained hurricane strength. at this moment that storm looks like it could make landfall somewhere along the southeast coast and it is expected to rapidly grow more powerful and reach major hurricane strength. by tomorrow we are covering

here for all of the wrong reasons, and the new york times is bailing. —— times is failing. if i weren't here, i believe the new york ctimes probably wouldn't even exist. and some day when i am not president, which will hopefully be six and a half years from now, the new york times and cnn and all of these phoney media outlets will be out of business, they will be out of business. there will be nothing to write and nothing of interest. so if the failing new york times has an anonymous editorial, can you believe that? a was editorial. we are doing a greatjob. the poll numbers are through the roof, we are doing great and guess what, no one will come close to beating the in 2020 because of what we have done. —— beating me. let's go to washington now and our correspondent chris buckler. we know what he is saying publicly. what else is he saying? it is a remarkable opinion piece and you have to go through to get a sense of what they are saying. they talk about president trump's impulse being generally anti— trade and antidemocratic and that is important to mention because i

the whole top center front page of "the new york times," "the new york times" did false reporting. they're fake news. and you know what? "the new york times" would not report that their story was fake. front page. when i heard that they caught these four people, i said, wow, that's a big story. and it was for fox. we know much more than the media for a change. much more. >> mr. president, susan lee from fox business. did you reject a one-on-one meeting with the canadian prime minister justin trudeau. >> yeah, i did. good job, too. you do a very good job. really. yes, please. >> i came back to new york and i picked up the failing "new york times" -- >> "new york times," come on. "new york times." the failing "new york times," stand up, go ahead. >> i think they're going to endorse me. >> abc, fox. i like fox, i really do. abc, cbs, nbc, "the times," they're all going to endorse me because if they don't, they're going out of business. could you imagine if you didn't have me? >> i know you were pointing to me but i work for pbs' news outlet. >> no, i know that. >> they weren't laughin

yes, going back to what you were saying calling the new york times the failing new york times, we have seen this time and time again. when it comes to president trump, he's going to use whatever rhetoric makes sense for him at the time to support his position at the time. it seems his base doesn't worry about it. howard: he's not the only politician is a theys this story in the washington post -- poll situation that says this story in the washington post -- he's not the only politician that says oh the washington post says this. thank you. >>> up next, billionaire basketball owner mark cuban chokes up and apologizes and an overdue apology from jane fonda as well. (music throughout) howard: mark cuban the tech executive who owns the dallas mavericks wants you to know he is sorry. he's one time pal of donald trump who wound up campaigning against him and then said he might run for president in 2020. he agreed to donate 10 million dollars to women's groups following an internal investigation sparked by a "sports illustrated" story that found two decades of sexual harassment and improper c

he took on "the new york times." he said this. >> when you tell me about an anonymous source within the administration, probably who is failing. probably here for all the wrong reasons. if the failing "new york times" has an anonymous editorial, meaning gutless editorial. we're doing a great job. >> reporter: he will be traveling today to montana for a campaign rally in billings, montana. then staying on the road and going to north and south dakota for campaign events as well. we know all of this will follow him. clearly the white house pushing back on this. press secretary sarah sanders says the person is a coward and should resign. dave and alison. >> jeff zeleny, thank you. a sources close to the white house aides are following leads to find the author based on the way the op-ed is written. just hours before the opinion piece published, the president asked for aides to help him determine to cooperate with the other portrayal of bob woodward's new book. he spoke about his former adviser h.r. mcmaster was the person

at "the washington post," not "the new york times." believe it or not, that headline, it's not just click bay. "the washington post" actually laid out a case in the editorial for why president trump is responsible for bad weather. look at this quote. when it comes to extreme whether mr. trump is complicit. he placed on humans rolls in increasing the risks and he continues to dismantle efforts to address those risks. not only is the claim totally absurd, it's also factually wrong, not that they care. the american enterprise institute.org, aei.org put out and presidents first year in office the u.s. rigorous co2 emissions more than any other country in the world. so trump derangement syndrome has now reached a new height. these people are just downright sick in their obsession to hate the president. the slogan from "the washington post" is democracy dies in darkness. sadly the final nail in the coffin for democracy, journalism, if you will, is the kind of blinding anti-trump hatred that is on display from them and all their friends in th

your thoughts about where the new york times is? >> my thoughts, first of all, the new york times would have vetted this very carefully, i don't have any doubts about that. my feeling is yet another example of partisan politics run riot the way i would put it. it's happening everywhere and it's not good for the democracy, i don't think it's good for u.s. security overseas, it can tempt people to think the wrong things about that we have a weak government and i was shocked that the individual in question would not resign and put it out there under his own name. lou: yeah, i wasn't surprised. anyone who would betray the man they work for, the president of the united states, is a delusional ego self-jackass, i don't see any other way to call it. i would think that that person i hope stand up clearly among the top officials to have administration. >> this is not like that you work for a big business and you don't agree with the ceo or something like that. lou: right. national security. >> you work for the united states government and yo

new york times" published. mollie: when you have a rogue and unaccountable person thwarting by his own claims the will of the american people. that's a serious threat. the people have a say. they voted for this person and he's the person held accountable. phillipe: a year and a half ago someone was leak the transcripts of his phone calls. howie: the media's guessing who it was, i won't repeat all the names. let me turn to the bob woodward book. many of the same themes about aides trying to restrain the president. the president is an idiot, he's a liar, he's off the rails operating at a 5th or 6th grade level. i can tell you from my firsthand knowledge that bob woodward is a meticulous reporter. while some trump officials are denying the comments, he says he has hundreds of hours of tapes and transcripts. mollie: i think it claims against bob woodward aren't that he makes up quotes. but he talks to just a certain type of fern who is going to trash the principle. howie: let me read you a tweet from the president

has called the letter gutless and he's demanding the new york times reveal the author on the grounds of national security or those closest to trump including vice president pence have come out one by one denying that they had anything to do with the leather the one thing that no one is denying the presidency of donald trump may have been changed forever i am part of the resistance inside the trumpet ministration the headline proclaims i work for the president but like minded colleagues and i have vowed to thwart parts of his agenda the new york times describes the oath as a senior official in the government his claims of spock's control of the sea and of course damning criticism from the president himself. if the failing new york times has an anonymous editorial in the anonymous meaning gutless gutless editorial. really doing a great job the poll numbers are through the roof our poll numbers are great and guess what nobody is going to come close to beating me in twenty twenty because of what we've done trump plates of fun at this up with a tweet. does the so-called senior administrat

in "the new york times." wolf, the reaction here is really something. aides are scrambling to figure out who went and wrote an op-ed of this nature. so far, there's been no official response to the white house and a few reporters sitting outside sarah sanders' office behind this door including myself and she said that the white house had no reaction yet and let us know when they did. but it wasn't even clear if they had a chance to read the op-ed because one reporter printed out the op-ed and handed it to some of the officials standing upstairs. now, the president has an event with sheriffs in here in the east room at the white house. he showed up 30 minutes late to that meeting. it's unclear if that's to read the op-ed or if the white house is trying to form a response to this, wolf. clearly, certainly going to be another problem for them to deal with when they already had all of the other issues and the woodward book on the plate. >> truly extraordinary that "the new york times" decided to publish an op-ed

and the new york times is failing. if i weren‘t here, i believe the new york times probably wouldn‘t even exist. chris buckler is in washington for us. even by the turbulent standards of this white house, this is really something. yeah, it is quite a read when you look at it. it talks about the white house in complete dysfunction, it suggests that there are people specifically try to frustrate president trump, not because they are concerned about specifically the politics of the administration as a whole, but as they are concerned about his instincts. this is someone who specifically says that they are not the resistance of the land. they are there as they are a republican, they area there as they are a republican, they are a conservative and believe in all of those principles, but actually they believe that president trump is not reflecting the views of the party. when you read some of it it is amazing. they say his impulses are generally anti trade and antidemocratic. they described his leadership style as impetu

i think "the new york times" should be ashamed. and i think whoever wrote this anonymous editorial should be ashamed as well. anyone who would write an anonymous editorial smearing this president, who has provided extraordinary leadership for this country, should not be working for this administration. they ought to do the honorable thing and resign. >> let's start at the white house. kaitlan collins is there. kate bennett is also standing by on the first lady's response, but kaitlan, first to you, not only are all these people coming out with denials, they're printing out statements and hand hp delivering them to the oval office. >> that's right, brooke. you can see why these denials are rolling in as quickly as they are, because they know these denials are being printed out, taken directly to president trump, who is enjoying seeing these, as he did when general kelly and his defense secretary james mattis denied the claims that were attributed to them in bob woodward's tell-all book. these denials are coming in. they started with

in the "new york times." this even followed the secretary of state mike pompeo who was traveling abroad in india, and he was asked about it there. >> i find the media's efforts in this regard to undermine this administration incredibly disturbing. >> next question. >> i will answer your other question directly, someone will say, gosh, he didn't answer the question. it is not mine. reporter: press secretary sarah sanders put out a statement today on twitter which she said if you want to know or want to start calling around, asking are you the person, she said, the ones that should be called is the editorial department of "new york times." so much so, that the press secretary in her statement put out a phone number to "the times" as well. melissa: everybody was really upset about that. you can google that stuff. it is not hard to get those phone numbers. there is another one the outrage she would tweet the number. i don't know the google machine works great. thank you,. david: here to react, brad blakeman, form

editor of the "new york times." she is joining along with my panel that's still here, mr. leibovich, miss pletka and mr. kapur. margaret sullivan, i want to start by throwing a tweet back at you. yesterday, you said, i think something along the effects of, boy, i'm glad to be the former -- it's a good day not to be the public editor of the "new york times," that's what it was. okay! what would your lead be if you were the public editor of the "new york times"? how would you be tackling this? >> well, i actually did write a column about it today for "the washington post," and although it's not a typical public editor column, where you're trying to do something different, which is sort of internal refereeing, i did come to the conclusion that i had no problem with the "new york times'" publication of this piece. i think it was irresistible in some ways. and i also think that it had significant news value. it was newsworthy. the complaint i have is, as you said, with the writer of it, who i think, you know, reasonably,

"the new york times," "washington post," conspiracy tv msnbc, the networks. when trump leaves office in six years, they are going to decline precipitously. it will be fun to watch. the president continued his response on twitter and wrote, "does the so-called senior administration official really exist or is it just "the new york times" with another phony source? if the gutless anonymous person does indeed exist the times must for national security purposes turn him or her over to the government at once. e tonight, we are asking the question, who is this person? where does this person work within the administration's potentially hundreds of so-called senior officials in the executive branch? does this person have access to top-secret in

a way to unravel the russia story so far the new york times special report into the saga looks impressive masses of subsection might mender an accusation even from government is only that an accusation and an indictment and it needs to be proven in a court of law and you always use the word alleged when discussing whatever the government alleges that someone else has done that's proven in the court of law then it's a conviction but until that happens it is not fact it is not proven it is not the truth it is an allegation and that's all we've got from the miller indictments are allegations have to report the indictment obviously but that doesn't mean that it's true and yes that is what they've done their ethics here are abominable because they have taken and then if you only want c.n.n. they're all doing that they're taking this fact when it's only an accusation i think they realize they're in trouble and their reputation is at stake so they have to stick to the stand not going to reverse themselves and begin to say well we really got some of this rome that were destroyed their reputation

for all the wrong reasons now and the new york times is trailing if i weren't here i believe the new york times probably wouldn't even exist the white house spokesperson issued a statement calling on the author to quit labeling them a coward meanwhile some republicans were quick to try and downplay this unprecedented editorial but i didn't think that anything was relayed in that op ed that was new i think this is what all of us have understood to be the situation from they want so again it's not very it didn't reveal much to me i understand this is the case the president took to twitter casting doubt on the existence of the source but then said if they do exist they must be turned over to the government for national security tweeting a simple word treason this is a president in many ways under siege under pressure for multiple investigations and now undermined by a member of his own staff in a most public way pedicle hain al-jazeera washington well since the op it was published senior administration officials have launched a coordinated effort to discredit both the new york times and

googles and the guardians and the bbc‘s and the new york times and out of that comes something rather creative and important. but it is going to be messy, lots of people are going to lose a lot of money and it is going to be worrying. but i do think it is a great time to be a journalist and to be part of that revolution. i was going to say, if you were setting out as a young man on a career today, would you still want be a journalist? absolutely. i would not have the career security that you and i have at our great age, but what an exciting time to be able to makejournalism even better than it is today. that's a nice thought to end on. alan rusbridger, thank you very much for being on hardtalk. hello. for a time this week, temperatures will be on the rise. not just yet. it's a cold night for much of england and wales, under clearer skies. meanwhile, this stream of cloud in the atlantic continuing to extend across parts of northern ireland, northern and western scotland, strengthening the winds through tuesday and also bringing outbreaks of rain. but away from the far north and west, a
