Welcome to the No Spin News Weekend Edition. The last wing is Gail King apparently told Mr. Coates because she was supposed to participate in the interview. She did not, okay? What topic she was going to ask him about? That is a bogus charge. I do that all the time. I never tell anybody what questions are going to be asked.

But I do say these are the ground we're going to cover, to be fair. Okay? There's nothing wrong with that. So the Gail King thing is bogus. She didn't do anything wrong. So that is the sad state of CBS News. Now, our pal and 28 years at CBS, Bernie Goldberg, writes a very perceptive column on his website, bernard goulberg.com about all of this and goldberg for my money is the most qualified guy in the

country to weigh in on it not me him i worked at cbs for less than a year cbs national i work local channel two for a couple of years in new york uh which was a great experience but national was horrible uh anyway goberg joins us from raleigh north carolina where he's on the run from the storms. The hurricanes follow him around wherever he is. If he's in Florida, the storm comes. So if you see Goldberg, okay, anywhere in the world, you book, book it out as fast as you can because the storm will come. Okay, did I set that up in your estimation in a fair way, CBS? Yeah, I think you did. It's the middle of the three that I'd like to talk about, the Tony Docavel thing. first of all the questions that he asked were perfectly 100% legitimate he asked it in a respectful way it was a tough

tough interview but fair enough uh mr coates went to israel for 10 days 10 days in Israel and the west bank and comes back with a book that's not bad uh i have two problems with what happened The first problem is that the young, leftist, woke crowd got angry at him and went to management. This is not the first time this kind of stuff happened. Happened at the New York Times when the opinion editor had the gall, the audacity to publish a column, an op-ed column by U.S. Senator, conservative U.S. Republican Senator Tom Cotton, and the snowflakes went crazy and the editor lost his job. Okay.

This is similar to what's happening now. So that's the first part. But what's worse than the woke crowd going to management and saying, oh, this was improper this interview, we didn't like the tone. What's far worse, in my opinion, is that the grown-ups, the executives, caved. They caved in a public conference call when anybody can get out of it from the company. They dressed Tony Docaville down.

That was wrong. And the last graph in my column bill, which is the key statement, I think, if executives aren't going to stand up to the cancel culture mob, then stop calling yourselves journalists. That's simple. Don't call yourself a journalist

if you're going to cave to the woke mob. Why did they cave? Because that's what management is afraid of what's going to happen. They're afraid of their own staffs. The idea that this could have happened when I was there or when you were there is laughable. I mean, I reported to people who covered the Korean War. You think they're going to fold for some 20-something-year-old

leftist who says we don't like the way you're doing it, this is crazy. And it's part of the journalistic culture these days. It's not unusual. It's actually, Bill, to expand the subject a little bit, it's not unusual in corporate America, actually. I understand that, but the mission is different in the journalistic corporations than it is in toys or us or whatever. It's one thing to listen to everybody who wants to weigh in. You could listen to them, but you don't let the youngest, most leftist, and humiliate the guy who did it. And humiliate the guy who did his job. So, I mean, any journalist, you may, anybody else seasoned, knows, been there, done that, cliche, sorry, but any journalist knows that that guy didn't do, he did his job.

He should have done that. Now he didn't act to grind. He converted to Judaism. I understand that. probably should have said that up top. I'm not even sure about that. Why is it? Because is it interesting that he's Jewish? Yeah, okay. Yeah, that's all. It doesn't mean he can't ask anything,

but I'm a big full disclosure guy. Okay, but we don't question the motives. We know a woman is a woman, but we don't question a woman's journalist woman's motives if she's talking about a subject involving feminism. We don't question Mr. Coates' motives because he's a person of color who might side with other people of color in the Middle East.

All right. But again, it doesn't hurt to have full disclosure of everything, in my opinion. The more of that folks know. Let's face it, the U.S. economy is under stress. National debt rising, trade war, shaking the markets. And meanwhile, China is dumping the dollar and stockpiling gold.

That's why I protected my savings with physical gold and silver through the only dealer I trust, American Hartford Gold. And you can do this. Get precious metals delivered to your door or place in a tax advantage gold IRA. They'll even help you roll over your existing IRA or 401K, tax and penalty free. With billions in precious metals delivered thousands of five-star reviews and an A-plus from the Better Business Bureau. You can trust American Hartford Gold as I do. Please call 866-326-55-7576 or text Bill to 99-88-99. Again, that's 866-3-26-5-7576, or text

bill to 99-88-99. Hey, I'm Caitlin Becker, the host of the New York Postcast, and I'm I've got exactly what you need to start your weekdays. Every morning, I'll bring you the stories that matter, plus the news people actually talk about. The juicy details in the world's politics, business, pop culture, and everything in between. It's what you want from the New York Post wrapped up in one snappy show. Ask your smart speaker to play the NY Postcast podcast. Listen and subscribe on Amazon Music, Apple Podcast, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. Now, let me go over to, you said this, that's not your time.

top priority. I understand the woke culture and I just hammer them. You know that. All three networks and they're never coming back, ever. They're gone. All right. And the cables are worse. And they're never coming back either. Once Trump wins or loses, it'll just be crash landing for all of them. That's just what's going to happen. Because nobody trusts them. Nobody trusts any of Now, the 60 Minutes thing I think is more important than the morning news thing, and here's why. There is a deep suspicion that CBS News, with all its power, is helping Kamala Harris. So why not put out the whole transcript? I mean, I don't understand why they don't do it.

If that's your question, I totally agree with that. Okay. Totally. Well, why won't they then? I don't know for sure, but I could tell you that it might be because journalists don't like to hand over their notes. No, but it's on tape. It's on tape. The whole thing's on tape, Bernie.

They're 45, they ran 20. There's 25 minutes on tape. Just put out the transcript. No notes? Here's what she said. Oh, a transcript of what she said. Yeah, what she said. Hold on, Bill.

Hold on. A journalistic organization isn't going to want to give the stuff that they didn't air. Now, they should in this case because of people's suspicions. Right. Now, listen, I've been in a thousand, and I mean literally, at least a thousand editing rooms, where I've had a choice between a longer soundbite or a short soundbite. Everybody knows that. So what they may have done, what they may have done may have been totally legitimate, but.

And put it out. Because of what you accurately said, because of the suspicions, put it out, get it over with put out the trend but you know what put out the whole interview on on your website yeah i mean what do you yes dot com why not you'll get more eyeballs so that is that that tells me there's something wrong my suspicion you know if you're not put it out and it would benefit you if you did point put it out it would benefit cbs if then if it was an honest presentation and they did it straightforward and there's deep suspicion they didn't You clear it up right away, and you drive people to your website to look at it.

You win across the board. Let me tell you what some people on the right are thinking out loud. You're not saying it, by the way. You're saying it could happen. And I agree with you that it could happen. But here's what they're saying out loud. CBS puts out the longer version for the promotional tease so that people will watch the actual show. And that was, forgive the cliche, that was a word salad presentation by Kamala Harris.

Kamala Harris. So when the actual program airs on 60 minutes on Monday night, a day later, guess what? It's a shorter, more succinct, more intelligent response. So if you're suspicious of what CBS is doing, you're going to say, oh, I see what they did. Right. They covered, they were covering for Kamala Harris.

They didn't know it was going to hit the fan. And when it did, they went to the shorter, more intelligent version. Well, you can't take a question. By the way, this is a rule. You can't take a question and attach a different answer to it. You can't do that. And if they did that, that may be why they're not releasing the transcript. I hope not, because that would be a scandal.

I don't think Whitaker would do it. Whitaker. Whitaker wouldn't have the say, the 60 Minutes producers get in the editing room. Whitaker's busy doing his on camera. Whitaker screened it before it went on. Had to. All right. Final question. This is the personal beef of me. All right now, I'm airing a personal beef. So I write a letter to Jane Pauley. Do you know her? No.

Okay. I don't know her either. Never met her. She looks like you're kindly aunt. She looked like somebody would give you a nice present on Christmas or Hanukkah. And I say, hey, I'm sorry we've never met, but I have a hot new book coming out confronting the presidents, and I'd very much like to talk to you about it on CBS Sunday morning. Okay, now I knew, I thought she would reply, by the way, but she didn't. I knew I was never going to get on there because we researched CBS Sunday morning. they have not used one non-liberal author this entire year and not one every author they've had on

has been liberal what do you what's going on over there oh please bill no that can't be true i'm i'm shocked listen here's what i'll give it to you in a sentence when you have a liberal culture or or on cable tv a conservative of culture, you're going to be in that kind of bubble. And inside the bubble, at CBS, inside the liberal bubble, Bill O'Reilly is not the most popular guy in the world. Even though I'm reading the book, I find it fascinating. I'm right there with Benjamin Harrison and these guys.

It's a good book. It's a very good book. That's not the issue. Bill O'Reilly is the issue. And it's not a conservative book, by the way. No, not at all. So if you're in a liberal culture, you are going to see things to the left of center as middle of the road, as reasonable. But it's a blackout. It's a total 1950s blackout.

Because they think. All of the networks. All of them. Hey, hey, listen, Bill, I had a number one book in the country, too, at one point. It was called bias about liberal bias in the news. You think I got on CBS News with that book? Now, it's different. You're writing about the presidents. I was writing about CBS.

Okay, not a great example, not a great analogy. But they control the gates. Absolutely. They control the game. People should know about it. All right, go to Bernard Goldberg.com. Read Bernie's column on CBS. Appreciate Bernie.

You're listening to the NoSpin News Weekend Edition. Three weeks before the 2020 vote, there were three polls I want to tell you about. But first, you've got to have a baseline. I've used that word twice now. So the popular vote was Biden, 51.3, Trump, 46.8, a four and a half point spread in 20. Okay. New York Times poll, three weeks out, had Biden. at 50% Trump at 41. A nine-point spread. Quintipiac, a 10-point spread for Biden. Rasmussen,

much more friendly to Republicans, a three-point spread for Biden. Okay. So polling, and polling is all over the place now, very tight. I was with John McLaughlin at the Yankee game last night. I ran end to him. Good guy, by the way. And it's just all over the place. Nobody can really nail it down. Hey, it's Sean Spicer from the Sean Spicer Show podcast, reminding you to tune into my show every day to get your daily dose inside the world of politics. President Trump and his team are shaking up Washington like never before, and we're here to cover it from all sides, especially on the topics the mainstream media won't. So if you're a political junkie on a late lunch or getting ready for the drive home.

New episodes of the Sean Spicer Show podcast drop at 2 p.m. East Coast every day. Make sure you tune in. You can find us at Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcast. Power, politics, and the people behind the headlines. I'm Miranda Devine, New York Post columnist, and the host of the brand new podcast, Podforce One. Every week, I'll sit down for candid conversations with Washington's most powerful disruptors, lawmakers, lawmakers, and even the President of the United States.

These are the leaders shaping the future of America and the world. Listen to Podforce One with me, Miranda Devine, every week on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcast. You don't want to miss an episode. So we search around as somebody who was right the last two times on Trump Hillary and Trump Biden. And her name is Dr. Liberty Capito. And she teaches at Washington University in St. Louis, very fine college, great reputation. Might be a little woke for yours truly, but it's a good academic school, no doubt about it. Now, Ms. Capito, Dr. Capito, was a senior fellow at Harvard,

MIT. She's smart, obviously, smarter than I am. And she predicted 16 and 20, 20 accurately how it came out. She joins us now from West Virginia. So I don't, I don't, I feel a little uneasy asking to predict the race. Do you want it? Do you have a prediction? I do, I do.

I mean, well, let me give it to you this way. In 2020, you know, Biden was, was, the pollsters had Biden up at about 10 points above Trump. He ended up winning by about five. So the pollsters were five points off. Same thing in 2016. Right? We had Clinton. Pollsters had Clinton up by about five, and Trump ended up winning on the other side. So the idea would be that in 2024, pollsters really haven't changed their methods all that much, shockingly, being wrong the last two times. And they have Harris up by about three. So if it's actually that Trump has this sort of five percent hidden vote, then it would be that Trump's going to win this time. All right. That's my feeling as well. But there are other factors in.

besides numbers. And I want to start with this. So Joe Biden got 81 million votes. Most of them, according to exit polling, were anti-Trump votes, not we want Joe. I can't see Kamala Harris, because Trump now has been around so long, coming close to the 81. I feel she's in a 70 range, popular votes, 70 million. That's where I think she is, because Trump has now the advantage of a failed Biden-Harris administration. Am I wrong?

No, I think you're right. I think we have two types of voters in this country. I think we have a pro-Trump vote and an anti-Trump vote. It's not a pro-Harris vote and a pro-Trump vote. I think you're absolutely right. Okay. So if the Biden, and there's no if about it, Biden and there's no if about it, Biden and Harris have heard the American worker because costs for essentials of life are up 20%.

So even though if you hate Donald Trump, don't like them, don't approve of them, all right, you're getting hurt. And I think some of those people whose hatred probably is not as high as the NBC news people, they're going to go, you know, I don't like either of them, but I'd like to have more money in my pocket. That's where it is for me. Yeah, I mean, we sort of have seen this election come down to, either whether things are going to be about the economy and immigration or whether it's going to be about social issues. If you care about the economy and immigration, it's going to be a Trump vote.

If you care about the social issues, it's going to be a Harris vote. And right now, the stories are economy. Yeah, I mean, people have got to live. Now, I'm worried about my analysis because I was wrong in 22. And I'm not usually wrong. And I admit when I'm wrong, but I'm not usually wrong. I call the Biden bailout way before anybody else. But I was wrong on the so-called red wave because we were in the middle of those prices going up in 22.

But there was no red wave. The people hung in and voted Democrat. And I was shocked by that. Can you explain it? Yeah, I think there's a really big difference when you're looking at polling on sort of midterm elections versus presidential elections. The presidential election is really what sets the tone and it trickles down. You don't have a trickle-up effect. So, for example, a governor's race in a state is not going to affect who that state is going

for for president. But who that state votes for president is certainly going to affect who the senator or the governor is going to be. And so I think that's what we really saw in 22 was there was still that trickle-down effect from 20. What about the lingering effects of COVID? That's gone now, of course. But I've always said to myself, you know, maybe 22 wasn't a harbinger of how.

the nation was feeling because COVID intruded in some way. Did you see that at all? Absolutely. We saw that a lot in exit polls. We saw that a lot in focus groups with people feeling really still unsettled, uneasy, scared. You know, that was still a time where people were masking and were really afraid of what was happening. Yeah. So right now, final question for you, doctor, I see it as an emotional vote in three weeks from today. And people, People are voting emotionally because they don't have as much money as they used to have. That's what I, and the migrant thing, of course, is battering the Democrats and the vice president, battering it. But it's the money. People are worried economically. Last word.

I think you're, you've hit the nail on the head there, and I think that's what we're going to end up seeing. I think there's going to be an October surprise. I think it's just going to be the constant stories about how people don't have enough money right now and you're betting on trump to win right not betting i am god now i'm saying it officially but yeah all right thank you very much doctor very kind of you to help us out this evening thank you this is the no spin news weekend edition all right election integrity so we did this poll last week comes from maris college npr uh it's a left-leaning poll um and it says how concerned to you that this year's elections will be fraudulent. All right. Very concerned, somewhat concerned, 57, not concerned 43. So most

Americans are concerned there will be fraud in the vote. So we looked around for a guest who's involved in his fraud business, and we found a guy in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, Sunrise, which is right next to Fort Lauderdale. His name is Steve Stern. He's got a podcast, a Steve American Sean Rumble. He's a vice chair of the Broward Republican Executive Committee, so he's involved in the fray, and he joins us now from South Florida. You also run a company called Flag Shirt, which sells memorabilia, and you've got plenty of it on there, Steve. Way to go. And as a marketeer myself, I can respect what you're doing there. So do you have any data, and I don't want to relitigate 20, okay? That's ridiculous to do that.

But do you have any data now that indicates any state may have a fraudulent election? We have a big election security meeting with a million people. It's actually going on this afternoon while we're talking tonight. And we have a million people coming on. And our experts are going on. So, Greg Stenstrom, who's in Pennsylvania, is at the Supreme Court. As we speak, he sent a big lawsuit out showing. what could happen and where the fraud could be,

where he's following him. Linda Sinkiewicz comes on all the time, and she talks about how she can give you 500 people that voted twice in any county or who are registered twice. Now, our biggest problem is, there's a plus and a minus to the poll watchers and poll workers. So if you want to be a poll watch or a poll worker,

there's still time. Protectthevote.com, that's the Republican Party. It's hard to contact them, but they will contact you if you'd sign up. And the good news is that we have 200,000 poll watches and poll workers. That is a plus of 100,000 over the last election. Is that all Republicans, the 200,000 number? Yes, that's just Republicans. Okay.

And we need, here's some of the problems, though, as you've probably heard. Detroit only allowed us 50 poll watches and poll workers against their 1,500 Democrats. So the Republican Party sued them, and they're able to get more, but not enough. Same thing in Philadelphia. All the left-leaning cities that are going to make a difference, that's where the problem is. And I think the biggest problem is, how are we going to know what's happening if we don't have communication? And so my team of high-end election security people, I'm not an expert, but I have all the experts, Kalita Mitchell, Nilsa Alvarez, Dr. Rick Richards, Captain Seth Kessel,

Bill McGinley, many, many experts come on and tell us what's going on. We're streaming this all over the world. I mean, it's not just happening here. That's all so far I'm fine with. And as you know, there's been voter fraud from John Adams, Thomas Jefferson. There's always been voter fraud. There always will be voter fraud. There will be people that are dead and other people vote for them.

People registered 18 times under aliases. And it's impossible for the system to track them all down. It's when it reaches critical mass. So you're correct when the suspect precincts, Detroit, absolutely suspect, Philadelphia, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Las Vegas, Nevada, Maricopa County, Phoenix, Arizona. These are the places historically that have had trouble. And the zones should be flooded. But here's my question. If you're a poll watcher working for the GOP, the Republicans,

it's almost impossible for you to know if somebody's voting when they shouldn't vote. You don't know who these people are. You don't know what their registration status is, correct? So what does a poll watcher do? Well, that is very true. And we have a lot of people cleaning the voter rolls over the last year. The big thing that we find is the illegal aliens voting. That's going to be our big thing.

How do we stop the illegal area? But how do you know with a poll watch who doesn't know whether somebody's undocumented or an American citizen? How can they possibly know that? That cannot happen. It's got to come from, you know, from the people that are researching this and doing all this. We got many people doing this. The states, it's up to each state to do this. You know, it's up to each state has to do it.

And that's, they're in lies the problem. Okay, go ahead. Yes, I will say this, that the RNC is doing more than they have ever done. Now, it's difficult getting together with them because, you know, it can't get a whole of Susie Wiles. You want to answer the phone, Laura Trump, Michael Watley. Luckily, Boris Epstein helped us. He got Bill McKinley, who came on our Zoom meeting today and talked about how the RNC is doing a lot more than they did two years ago and four years ago.

That's going to help us. Now, do I have all the answers? No, that's the big problem. All right. And I'm not asking for all the answers. But what I would like you to do, if you would, is that after the election, and keep us post, if you see something between now and election day that's wrong, and you can certify that it's wrong, okay, that I could see it, because then I'll go in heavy.

But afterward, I'm sure you'll do at post-ops, no matter who wins, and find out if there are any places that are suspect. See, I still don't know where Zuckerberg's money went. After all this time, I don't know where $300 million went in the 2020 election. I know the counties, there were, I think, 13 or 14 of them in the swing states, but where did the money go? Who got it? Some human being had to get this money. And that, to me, is the most disturbing thing that happened in all. of 2020. Last word. Well, I think that we got to vote. That's part of the problem. We had a lot

of people say they may not want to vote because the election could be stolen. And that's crazy because if you don't vote, your people aren't going to win. Now, the good news is the early voting, as you know, there's more people voting early. We've got a lot of people that are voting on election day, which I always say is tough because what could happen on election day is that it's possible just what happened in Arizona. They backed up the machines and people left, so we lost 5%. So I say vote early, and we got to win this election because this is the end of the world if we don't win this election. Well, keep this post, Steve.
