10-20-23 Bill Cunningham Show

That's the dollar. Enter it now. Bill Cunningham, the Great American, Welcome this glorious at Randy Friday afternoon the tri State. Later on as Tim Graham of Media Research Center in gren Bozel, plus the Life and Times at Tricia Mackie celebrating thirty years at Fox nineteen. But until then, Senator JD. Vance, welcome again to the Bill Cunningham Show. And Senator, first of all, can I get your reaction to the President's speech spending another one

hundred billion dollars of a new credit card. We're going to open up and max that out quickly, and whether or not that any restraints are put on the money's given to the Ukraine or to Israel. First of all, Senator, what is your reaction to the President's speech? Well, first of all, I thought it was a disgraceful speech, and I don't say that lightly, Willie. I watched show Biden give speeches for a couple of years. I've been unhappy with a lot of them, but yesterday I think he crossed

a totally new line of grossness. We have to remember, of course, that our Israeli friends just had the worst terrorist attack in their nation's history, which is saying something fifteen hundred people dead, some of them Americans, of course, most of them are Israelis, and Joe Biden basically tried to use the Israeli tragedy to sell something thousands of miles away, which is further funding for his Ukraine conflict. Now we have to remember, of course, that

the Ukraine War is fundamentally different from the Israeli conflict. It involves different actors, it involves different American national security interests. The weapons the Israelis need actually very often are the same weapons that the Ukrainians need. So these policies are in direct conflict with one another, and he's literally using dead Israeli citizens to sell the Ukraine policy. I think it's disgusting. I also think that,

what you know, there's something weird going on in the American left. And I wouldn't have said this twenty years ago, even, but every time the great tragedy happens, they have to somehow assume that their own civilization is the bad guy. So we're dealing again with a terrible terrorist attack for our ally Israel, and Joe Biden is droning on about Islamophobia, which I'm sure happens

in a country of three hundred and thirty million people. But the idea is that is a major problem in America today or was a major problem twenty years ago. Is ridiculous. Why do these guys have to respond to tragedy by blaming their own country. I don't get it, and it's just something else that drives some how disconnected. This guy is Senator Vance. There appears to be Hamas chapters on various college campuses. Hezblah has taken over control of much

of other college campuses and universities. They seemingly advocate the murder and rape of Israeli citizens. The speech of Joe Biden should have spent most of the time speaking about Iran. Iran is the head of the snake and some of their Alkalites and Hesbla and Amas and all over the Middle East. The problem is

Iran. Thirty three months ago, Iran was on its back. Thirty three months ago, there were protests and riots and demonstrations in Tehran, and all of a sudden, they know they went through four years of the Trumpster denying them ability to participate in economic markets. You couldn't sell oil. America was energy independent in fact, we were exporting oil for profit, not importing it. And so why didn't the president talk about much in a Reagan fashion?

And even Bill Clinton could give a speech if he had to. The speaking skills of this president are non existent because of his mental deficiencies. But isn't the major problemannounced by this president is Iran and what they seek to do, and not necessarily anyone else. Iran is the problem in the Middle East. Correct, That's exactly right, Willie. Iran is the problem. Of course he didn't mention China either, but we know the Iranians are supporting Hamas.

When Joe Biden frees up six billion dollars of Iranian money, which he did just a couple of months ago, we know that a lot of that money will eventually flow to terrorist activity. And the reason he didn't talk about it, Willy, I think it's because it opens up such an incredible line of attack for Biden's own policies. The guy can't talk about Iran because if he does, then everyone will say, well, hell, the Iranians are your

problem. You gave them money. So it just goes to show that unless you show proper leadership, you open America up to a number of problems. The other thing we have to talk about, Willie. When I criticized Joe Biden for giving the Iranians six billion dollars unfreezing six billion dollars of Iranian money, the pushback that I get as well. Biden has guaranteed that this will

only be used for humanitarian purposes. Well, that's very kind of the Iranians to promise that when we give them six billion dollars they're only going to buy food, medicine. But even if we assume that they catch that promise, Willy, money is fungible. If I give you one hundred dollars and you go and buy your office lunch, that frees up one hundred dollars you can

spend on other things. And this is the issue with giving the Iranians so much money, is that we free up their resources to spend on terrorism. In the world's largest state sponsor of terrorism. Biden has to get serious about Iran and until he does, the Israelis won't be safe, but more importantly,

American citizens all across the world won't be safe. Senator Vance, I watched one of the morning shows, and the number of oil revenues in the last thirty three months to Iran is in the range of one hundred billion dollars. So the six billion supposedly is sitting in an account and cutter which I cut her of course, host a moss leaders and opulent a glory. But nonetheless the six billion is a tip of the iceberg because of the policies of

Joe Biden making America energy subservient to Russia and to Iran. Is that Iran has an extra one hundred billion dollars in oil revenues they otherwise would not have. And secondly, can you make the moral equivalents that you have to package these things together. We have to open up a new credit card and give tens of billions to the fight against Russia in the Ukraine. We have to

give tens of billions of dollars to Gaza Palestinian for quote humanitarian purposes. We have to give more money to Jordan when King Abdullah wouldn't even meet with our president. We've got to give more money to Israel. In other words, number one, do we have the money? Do we have just an extra one hundred billion sitting around? And number two is there an equivalence between Ukraine and Israel. Well, no, there isn't an equivalence, WILLI, and

this is the problem. But let's just focus on the numbers here, right. So, look, we don't have the money. We need to be much more careful with the resources that we spend. But I do to support helping the Israelis out because when one of your most important allies face is a terrible terrorist attack, I do think it's important for us to step up in the same way that we would expect people to step up form after nine to eleven. Now here's the thing, though, Willie, excuse me. Israel

is asking for a few billion dollars. So the President sent us a supplemental budget request to the tune of one hundred billion dollars. The overwhelming majority of it is going to Ukraine, which is another reason why connecting Ukraine and Israel in this moment of crisis is extra disgraceful. He's not even giving the Israelis that much money compared to what he's giving the Ukrainians. The Ukrainians will get about fifteen times more money out of this package than the Israelis, so we

know what he's doing. He knows that Israel Is popular in America. His Ukraine boondoggle is not popular in America, so he's trying to use Israel to provide political cover for Ukraine. It's really disgraceful stuff, Willy. But to your point, we do not have one hundred billion dollars to throw to Eastern

Europe right now. And the final point I make here, the issue you raised about oil prices is so important, Willy, because look, obviously it hurts American consumers when we're paying more of the pump, when we're paying more to heat our homes. But when we empower the world's oil regimes, that sends them billions of dollars that they wouldn't otherwise have to spend on terrorism.

So not only is he making all of us in America poor, he's making the worst people in the world richer, and he's making the world more dangerous in the process. It's a very very bad combination if you're an American citizen who just wants to live in comfort and security in your own country. I read a column Senator JD. Vance that this is the most perilous time America has been in since the nineteen thirties. The column points out that Hesbelah is

not the hes Beealah of old. That Hesbela has one hundred and fifty thousand missiles and rockets pointed at every major Israeli city. They have forty thousand bloodthirsty terrorists ready to invade the North. The circumstance, and that Gaza has the regular Israeli army. The IDF tied down their hand they got they got their hands full. And so when you look at the Hesbela launching one hundred and fifty thousand missiles artillery shells devastating Tel Aviv in every major Israeli city. You

have Vladimir Putin has just left communist Red China shijiaoping. They had a big powwow. You have North Koreans supplying Hesbela and Hamas with large armaments because they get the cash from Iran that we've given them because of the oil prices that Iran is flushed with money. The North Koreans are now involved, the Russians are involved, the communists, Red Chinese are involved. In the Middle East. So called our friends, whether it's Egypt or Jordan, are not meeting

with our so called president. You put all that together and then you have in the Congress and at least in the House, nothing but chaos. You have the media launching on conservatives everywhere. You've been under vicious repertorial attacks because you're not bending over completely when it comes to aid to the Ukraine. Just inside baseball, you came to politics horizontally and not vertically, as kind of

a normal guy. And it's it's enlightening and freshening to me that I've been at this for about forty years and normally when a new guy comes to politics, they get they get stuck in the swamp with raising money and having fundraisers and listening to the Washington elite and the Washington postcurring favor. And you're like a fresh voice because you're not in the You're you're in the swamp, but

you're not of the swamp. Inside baseball when you talk to fellow senators, is there a real fear that America is being sucked into World War three? Look, Willie, I hate to say it, but yes, there is a very precarious sense among people that I trust You're right, Willie. I try to stay apart from the swamp as much as possible, and among the best and smartest people in Washington, there is a recognition number one that we are ruled by idiots, and we're ruled by idiots in a moment of extreme

crisis for the world. We have to be careful of here, Willy, is to recognize that we are being stretched very thin, and our enemies recognize this. And unfortunately we have built a world system of alliances where we don't really have allies, Willy, we have client states. Think about how little the Europeans are doing in Ukraine. Even if you support the Ukrainians, why aren't the Europeans doing more because than their backyard. So we have a lot

of dependent nations. We have very few real allies. Israel's actually one of our few real allies in the world, people who actually step up and take care of themselves. But also where we share interests and values. And I think what we need to do, Willy, to really protect our interests over the long term is we need to recognize that we need real allies out there.

I think India could become a very important ally of the future, but Joe Biden's policy is pushing them more into the arms of the Russians of the Chinese. I think that we could have some very serious allies in Africa, Nigerian and so forth. But again, the Chinese are cultivating relationships in Africa. This is a period that's going to require real statesmanship, Willie, You're

right. The closest comparison we have is the nineteen thirties, and we got out of that crisis because we had real leadership on both sides of the Aisle. We're going to need that over the next ten to fifteen years because this is a dangerous time for our country. But look, I'm an internal optimist about our country, Willy. I think we need statesmen right now, and I'm gonna try as much as possible to play my role. All right,

Senator j d Vance, thank you very much. It would have been refreshing if Biden has spoke about the southern border when Islamic terrorists are coming across the southern border. It would have been interesting to say, look, my policy and energy dependency is now over. We're gonna pump, we're gonna drill, we're gonna drive Iran into the bankruptcy court with the money. We're going to

keep them out of international monetary systems. None of that happened. If you don't support him in the Ukraine. Guess what, you're a potent apologist. And I didn't see the great ideas about our great friend Israel. Who us survive? They must exist. There's two of God's representatives on Mother Earth,

that is the United States of America and Israel. And when we have a mentally deficient president not speaking about Iran, and somehow we've given one hundred billion dollars to Ukraine, that's not enough, and he's going to hook the Israeli aid to the Ukrainian aid also aid to everyone else. When we don't have the money. It's sickening. And Senator jd Vance, once again, thank you for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show, and please stay true to your

principles that you went into office with. Thanksfully, take care all right, God bless you. Let's continue. That's Senator jd Vance and the barbarians are at the gates. It's obvious if we had a functioning president, we would shut down the southern border, send the army in this country to the southern border. It must be stopped what's happening there. Secondly, we must drill and pump oil and use pipelines to crash the price of oil through the basement

so that Iran and others are enemies. Russia are not getting oil revenues. That indirectly and directly, every policy of Joe Biden has enhanced the power of Russia and Iran at our expense, and that is sickening. Let's continue with more coming up later will be the great Tricia Mackey of Fox nineteen and also Tim Graham of nenewsbusters dot org about media bias, how it's driving America into the ditch.

Broadcast Superboty after one o'clock today will be Tim Graham of NewsBusters dot Org to talk about what the media has done to perpetuate violence in the Middle East. The first thing the New York Times, Washington Post, CBS News did after the hospital was bombed by Islamic terrorists indirectly

was to blame the Jews. So for hours and hours the websites were alive about Jews killing five hundred Palestinians. Took about six to ten hours before the media determine, you know what, we're believing hamas propaganda, so they simply changed the story a little bit without an apology. Of course, this is the group concerned about threats to democracy, disinformation and misinformation when the mainstream media

are the ones perpetuating it. Unbelievable. Secondly, once again, Jim Jordan, my friend and yours, has lost and has bid to become the speaker. And of course I've made some copious calls to local and a few national political type figures as to why this is happening. Because to me, those who voted against McCarthy made a serious blunder. Those who voted against Steve Scalise made a serious blunder. Those who voted against Jim Jordan making serious blunders.

And they're all Republicans, self inflicted wounds of the worst in life. It's like a circular firing squad shooting each other. And why in the world with Jim Jordan and his body man, his good friend Warren Davidson is a former Army ranger and of course a US congressman. His buddy sitting at his side,

called for a vote when they knew they were going to lose. I was told the reason that happened is there were hopes and expectations that some of now the eight became nine now is like twenty four would somehow be embarrassed in the voting for Jim Jordan. They're risking electing a Keem Jeffries to be the speaker. There's a nuclear option they could use, which is simply to say to change the rule and instead of having to get to get to two seventeen,

just whoever gets the majority wins. That's being considered as I speak here at twelve to forty in the afternoon. And that means if the Republicans change the rule to say, don't need two seventeen. Whoever wins a plurality will be the speaker. If that nuclear option is used. It means that Jim Jordan wants to shame fellow Republican congressman in a voting for him to keep a Keem Jeffries from becoming the speaker, the Marxist from Manhattan who's a Democratic minority

leader. Now, if they could go down that route, all the Republicans we'll be left with a choice of voting for Jim Jordan's speaker or Aqem Jeffries. Because a non vote for Jeffries, I'm sorry, a non vote for Jordan would elect a Kiem Jeffries. Can you smell when I'm cooking? Would they do that? Maybe that's what being considered as I speak. Every time this runs, a king Jefferies, who's a left wing Marxist for Manhattan, gets about two hundred and twelve votes, and at one point Jim Jordan was

up to two hundred and one ninety nine. Now it's down to one ninety. He keeps losing votes. So if you change the rule the majority plurality of votes wins, it simply means that the Republicans who voted non Jim Jordan will have the backs up against the wall forcing them to vote for Jordan. So a Keem Jefferies doesn't become the speaker and control everything in the House.

Are you kidding me? I hope Matt a Keem Gates is happy he keeps voting with liberal Democrats who are many are Marxists, including the squad who supports Hamas. This is unbelievable. The old saying is it's better to keep your mouth shut let people wonder about your stupidity instead of opening your mouth into spelling

all doubts. And right now, the Republicans, I guess Jim Jordan good Man is wrong in calling the vote when he knows or should know, he can't win, and all it gives to the media once again is a free fire against Republicans laughing and snickering. When I watch CNN coverage of that event, all of them are snickering at the stupid Republicans a party of advocacy not

a party of governance. And guess what, they're right because you can't call the vote unless you got the votes, So why call the vote when you don't have the votes. That is stupid. It just gives the media an opportunity to make a fool of you instead of a fool of themselves, which they're good at doing on their own accord. So we'll see what happens. God help us all. If Jim Jordan says, okay, let's change the rule, whoever gets the most votes, even not a majority, will be

the speaker. He's then going to be saying to Republicans who voted against me, your choice is now either Jim Jordan or a Keem Jeffers. And many are already so pissed off at Jim Jordan they can't see straight. The reason is I was told is that Steven Scalise is a beloved character in the House because he was shot by a left wing activist about six seven years ago when there was an attempt by Bernie Sanders supporters to decapitate the leadership of the House

of Representatives. Make no mistake about it, that guy named James Hodskinson from Illinois set up shop in Washington to hunt down and kill the leadership of the Republican House and Senate. And they were practicing for a baseball game when he decided to launch his attack shooting one fired about thirty some shots, and thank god Capitol whole police for President to kill him. Otherwise there would have been dozens of lawmakers killed murdered, including our own Brad Winster. So at this

point, all hell's breaking loose. Every time it comes up, this hardcore group of Republicans against Jim Jordan grows. And if Jim Jordan pulls the nuclear option to say not a majority, whoever gets the most vote is the speaker. He's hoping that Congress and Mike Lawler and others, and Matt Gates, who's a clown, a fool, and I came Jeffrey supporter Matt Gates are

going to vote for him instead of a non vote. If they vote the way they've been voting, then have Keem Jeffries, the most liberal left wing element of the Democrat Party will be speaker and control the entire agenda. That is something they deserve, that they're so incompetent, it is disgusting now.

Secondly, on the issues that Jade Vans and I discussed, there are well known Hamas and has Blood chapters on many college campuses today, well funded by radical leftists like George sorows to cause nothing but confusion and things of that character. That's what they want to have. You see students marching around supporting Hamas

and Hesbla is truly disgusting. And there's no connection between the radical left in this country, the UH, those on the college campuses, big tech, most of the Democratic Party on one hand, and on the other hand is Hamasus and Hesbela believe that women and girls are the property of their families and their father They have no rights. I don't think the radical left in this

country believes that. And if you're a supporter of gay rights in America, Hamas and Hesbela throw gays off the top of buildings and burn them alive. But somehow the left in this country want to support Hamas. When it comes to individual freedom of speech, assembly, religion, there's none of that in the Middle East. None of that with Amas or Iran or Hesbela or al Qaeda or ISIS or Islamic Jihad just named the group. None. There's no

freedom of religion, are you getting me? There's no freedom of speech. You're imprisoned and beaten and thrown in a dungeon. But the left in this country says with Amas. That's okay, don't worry about that. There's no court system anywhere in the Middle East except in Israel, in which a person can sue another person, or if someone's been wronged you may seek redress in

court. None of that exists. There should be no connection between the radical left Democrats in this country, the Hamas wing of the Democrat Party, and the goals of a moss and Hesbat. Should be no connection. They should say, you know what, we're with Israel, that's the functioning democracy. But then by doing so, the term uses colonizing. See, because the founding of Israel as a state, they've been there for three or four thousand

years since Moses led the Jews across the Sinai a long time ago. Nonetheless, but they tend to be origin of white Europeans nineteen forty seven, forty eight, forty nine displaced individuals in Europe because of World War II. This land is mind God Get gave this land to me. Basically, they're white Europeans who started Israel as a state. They've been there for three thousand years, and there are black Jews. It's a free and open society. Thirty

percent of Israel or Palestinian Arabs. There's mosques everywhere all over Israel. It's okay. Catholic churches okay. A court system, yes, Freedom, individual rights absolutely, the right to petition government for redress of grievances, freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom of assembly absolutely. Now what Middle Eastern country has that. Try out in Iran or Syria or Lebanon or Jordan and

watch what happens to you. But somehow the left wants to hate on America at the University of Michigan, University of Cincinnati, UK, whatever it might be, of course Columbia, and because it's negative toward America, they're on

board one hundred percent. It would have been extremely helpful if our inarticulate president, who's probably wearing adult diapers and belongs in daycare at this point, tried to read a speech, had the repertorial skills and the rhetorical abilities to turn a phrase and put the cheese on the cracker and talk about the head of the snake. The head of the snake is Iran, funded by directly and

indirectly Joe Biden. That's the problem. The six billions sitting on some account and cutter and the one hundred billion that Joe Biden is put in the pockets of Iranian leaders. There's the problem. Thirty three months ago, Iran was on its back. Inside of Iran, there were protests and marches and demonstrations. They were living horrible lives because of what Donald Trump had done to their

economy by crashing through the basement. The price of oil. America was pumping and drilling and we were energy independent, and that caused the price of gasoline oil to go to about forty five and fifty dollars a barrow. Right now it's ninety on its way to two hundred. But when he changed for green purposes or policies, it put in the pockets of the Russians and Iranians hundreds

of billions of dollars of fresh money. And now he can't come back three years later, having wanted to restart the Iranian deal, having enriched the Ayatola in Tehran and be too harsh on Iran because he would even look more ridiculous in his speech last night, which was totally ridiculous. So now we're stuck rudderless with the House Republicans looking like fools. And secondly, Iran having provided Hesblah in Lebanon, one hundred and fifty thousand guided and unguided missiles, artillery

shells and more launch against the Israeli cities. They can't stop that. Plus they have forty thousand murderers and terror is called Hesbela militia ready to march across the border. Now that's going to be a problem. Israel will kill them. But how do you kill one hundred thousand missiles, all launched simultaneously against Israeli cities. How do you stop that? Answer is you can't. You may get a few, but the iron dome is stretched. And so it

is reported by some and this is what JD. Vans and I touched on that when Gaza is cleaned out by the Israelis, while that is going on in the north, Hesbelah is going to launch their missiles which will take about four minutes to arrive in Tel Aviv, Szarea, Tiberius and other major Israeli cities and obliterate them. And at that point Israel has a decision to make. Is there going to be a second Holocaust? Are six million Jews in

Israel about to be murdered again by extremists? On one hand, it was the Nazis, and now it's Hesbela and a Moss funded in directly by American oil dollars. That's ridiculous, but it's true. Or are they going to launch? They have dozens or hundreds of nuclear missiles and they've mapped out ten to twelve Iranian cities. And the Iatola knows what happens if there are proxies

attack and obliterate the Jews in Israel. Then I hope the adults get together and say you know what, America, Russia, China, Saudi Arabia and say it must stop right there. It must stop because the North Koreans are being paid millions of dollars in order to provide to hesbalah n A Moss North Korean armaments, including weaponized drones, and Iran has created thousands of weaponized drones that basically cannot be stopped. Israel is now isn't as much danger as it's

ever been. Two representatives on Earth of God Almighty, the United States of America and Israel, and we must make sure that Israel exists. And as I ended up with JD Vance, there's great fear in Washington and the Republican party is in complete chaos and confusion, acting like fools. And I hope A. Keen Gates is properly primaried and retired. He wants to become the next governor of Florida. For God's sakes. All right, let's continue.

We never stop, We simply continue. After one o'clock today will be Tim Graham of NewsBusters dot org. He is chronicle what the media has done to indirectly cause so much violence. Of course, the terrorists need no reason to commit acts of terror, that's what they do. But the media so repeatedly lies and is mistaken that others around the globe acts as if it's real and

people act upon it. Then later on, after two o'clock today, we're going to celebrate the life and times of the Great Trisha Mackie of Fox nineteen. We're blessed to have three queens the Triumvirate of local news, and we have, of course Shari Puello and Tanya O'Rourke, and we have the great Fox nineteen Trisha Macki and we're going to talk about that and more. The line becomes available five point three seven four nine, seven thousand, and by

the way, there's no moral equivalence between the murderer and the murdered. And there's no moral confusion in my mind between Israel and the terror There's none.

That's when Enter it now by Billy Cunningham, the Great American. Coming up later, we go Warren Davidson,

US Congressman. But the voting in the House is not gone well again for Jim Jordan. We'll see what happens down the road. But once again. Tim Graham spent years at the Media Research Center with Brent Bozel and is now the executive editor of NewsBusters. It's an organization committed to disclosing and making more public the mainstream media bias which is present everywhere. And Tim Graham, Welcome again to the Bill Cunningham Show. And Tim, can you give me an

overview since October the seventh, it's been now about two weeks. As far as what the media has done, supposedly objectively, which covering this war, well, this is a typical pattern in that you had just this horrible attack on civilians in israel. I. Guess it wasn't typical because these horrible attacks on civilians and the murders they recorded them, Hamas recorded them, and they

put them out on social media. They were very proud of them. This made it hard for the news media to try to suggest things were unconfirmed. But generally what happens is if you look at what happened to us after nine to eleven, there was a period of great empathy and horror, and then when the military response comes, then they sort of go back to their general, oh, here come the war crimes type of coverage. You know,

this happened to the Americans when we went into Afghanistan. They sort of go back into that United Nations mode of you're the war criminal, you're the human rights abuser, and so that's where we are now with Israel, and yes, we had this, this complete failure the media with this this bomb outside of hospital and gaza, and they all jumped and said Israeli airstrike without even blinking, without confirming. What I've tried to say is these are the people

the fact checkers won't touch. These are the people that Facebook and ex Twitter are not gonna deplatform or suspend, and they're putting out the rankest misinformation based on a terrorist source. And Tim Gramby don't yeah. Other than other occasions when the media shows their Marxist left wing bias, in this case it had real life consequences. One headline online from New York Times said five hundred Palestinians

killed in an Israeli airstrike, says Palestinian authority. The Palestinian authority is a moss. But when that hit the airwaves, what happened in the capitals of the world, what happened in the Middle East, what happened It set the template and by the time the truth came out about five to six hours later, it was too late. When information like this caused this violent protests and rioting outside Israeli consulates, even outside American embassies where we have the fear of

Benghazi rerun. You know, obviously this is exactly the sort of thing where they would say, we can't trust the New York Post, we have to shut it down for seventeen days because they're irresponsible. And nobody's ever going to shut down the New York Times, like, oh, let's suspend the New York Times on Twitter for seventeen days. They're never going to do that.

And so the obvious thing here to underline is they're not apologizing. They corrected, but they corrected it by saying, well, the Biden administration says it wasn't Israel. They didn't really say my bad, no, you know, and instead, I mean, this made me mad the other night on the PBS News Hour, where they were like, well, whatever, the fury in the Arab street remains, you know, but we're gonna syeah, yeah, yeah, let's say. And one thing Tim Graham of NewsBusters is one

thing that really frosts me is the moral equivalence argument. After all, this a cycle of violence, as if criminals commit violent acts, the police respond, and when the police respond to the violent act, guess what, that's perpetuating the cycle of violence between the Israelis and a moss the moral equivalence argument. One purpose is to enable the morally confused to hide their confusion, and

the other is to enable the immoral to hide their immorality. So we're going to hear this constantly today, tonight, tomorrow, in the next days, about moral equivalents, the attacks by the Israeli, which is in justification to what occurred on October the seventh. It's a tit for tad. Each sides are equal. We don't know what to do. It's a moral equivalence.

Is it morally equivalent? When America responded to the nine to eleven did the Israelis tell George Bush, now, don't get angry, nice, make sure your response is equivalent to what happened on nine to eleven. The Israelis would never do that with us, but of course that's what the media says. The Israeli army has to do, be careful, don't cause too many civilian

deaths, which they do anyway, give me the moral equivalence argument. Well, I thought this was especially objectionable in the President's speech, where basically he tried to say, well, America wasn't didn't do the right thing. After nine to eleven. There was too much blind rage, there was too much Islamophobia. And you know he's he's ripping President Bush for one. You know, it's that made it a Democrat speech. It was no longer a unifying

speech. He meant it at the beginning to sound like a unifying speech. But then once you start talking about how islamophobia, now you're back in Isla. You know, ilhan omar territory instead of unifying. But yes, this is the comedy bill, and that is these people all said, you can't normalize Trump. You can't both sides Trump, but you can both side Tamas. This is the thing where they all enjoyed this week suggesting Jim Jordan was a terrorist. That's what John Bahner said, Ha ha ha oh so Jim

Jordan you can call terrorists. But all these media companies like the BBC and the CBC are like, we will not use the word terrorism. We will, however, blame the Israelis for air strikes they didn't, cause we are so professional. The implication is, and I hear this constantly, Palestinian babies are just as precious as Israeli babies. The answer is yes. No one argues that point, but one side wants to behead babies. The other side

wants to make sure no more civilian casualties take place. The Israelis work around to try not to kill civilians, Wahamas and the Palestinian supporters spend time killing civilians for political purposes, so there is not a moral equivalence. And Tim Graham, this is going back a few decades. But German people in nineteen thirty three elected Adolf Hitler to be the chancellor after a year or two, he sees power and Adolf Hitler was extremely popular in Germany in nineteen thirty four,

thirty five and thirty six. He would have been elected in a fair election, he easily would have won. So when it came time to firebomb Dresden and to commit to large acts against civilian populations, there was hardly no I don't think there was no voice in America to say don't do that. Got to be careful. You got to separate the German people from the Nazis

that they voted for. And then Gaza right now, I am certain the great majority of Gaza residents would like to live in peace and quiet and harmony, but unfortunately they elected Hamasta be their representative in twenty oh six, and since then there's been no election, and so I'm sympathetic to that. But most nations at war were at survivabilities at stake. Doesn't pay attention a lot to civilian casualties. It is unfortunate, it has said. But isn't it

true that the Israelis tried to avoid civilian casualties. Well, Hamas and Hezbollah and al Qaeda and ISIS and Islamijihad, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera, they purposely target civilians. Isn't there not a moral equivalence? Yeah, well, it's the same thing with people now running around like calling for a ceasefire. It's like there's never been a ceasefire. The Gusen the Hamas has never had a ceasefire. Hamasa's daily routine is to lob missiles at Israel' that's what they

do. It's their thing. Yeah, I mean, you're right, nobody was going to dare do this. I think, of course Sting had this song in the eighties the Russians loved their children too. That's such a stupid thing to say, because they didn't say the Nazis loved their children. Too, while they kill six million Jews. At some point, yes, don't, especially after you've tried to tell us you can't normalize Trump, Well,

guess what, you can't normalize Amas. And yes, the Palestineans as a people, they don't get a two state solution if they can never be peaceful. They're not even mostly peaceful. They are known for lobbying missiles at Israel, and their own promises are like, We're going to destroy these people and throw the Jews into the sea, and then they accuse the Jews of genocide

yep. Two other quick matters is that one of the solutions to this dispute, which may be insoluble, is for other Arab countries who care so deeply about the Palestinians to admit them to their country. But whether it's a whether it's a President Abdullah or whether it's a Cisi in Egypt and Jordan both say we don't want them, We're not going to take them, and so they crow crocodile tears about the Gossens and the Palestinians, but will not step up

to solve the difficulty. And secondly, you have a great column on the issue of democracy dies in darkness which is the which is the Washington Post to discuss because of the coverage of the Washington Post, democracy wasn't even born yet. But nonetheless, can you talk about where the slogan came from, what it really means. Well, they tried to deny this was an anti Trump

slogan, and everybody in the universe knew better. This was not a slogan they came up with under Obama. And it's a pompous slogan, and it basically says we are democracy and you're not that we are the guarantors of democracy. And you look at a time like this and it's like, no, the people who want democracy to die in darkness is amos is the Islamic Jihad, And you're saying, let's be both sides with them. You know, our whole point has always been with this slogan, you know who else's democracy?

People who say the Washington Post is a Democrat rag that nobody should read. That's freedom of speech. Perfect. And lastly, the president's speech talked about a hundred billion dollars and we have given tens of billions of dollars to Jordan, to Syria. Biden's policies allowed the Iranians, and they're the head of the snake. The Iranians are the head of the snake to receive about one hundred billion dollars in oil revenues that Trump did not permit. They were

on their back four years ago. The last thirty three months, the Iranians have picked up not just the six billion dollars, but one hundred billion dollars in extra oil revenue because we're not energy independent anymore. And Trump had the

policy to destroy Iranians at the gas pump. And so when we talk about the money, is the one hundred billion dollars that the Congress, I would imagine has to approve with money going all over the place, including the Gaza, including to Egypt, including to Jordan, including to Israel, including to Ukraine. Well, what's your take on the media coverage of how it is

required that we open up another credit card? We got one in the mail America government said let's open up another credit card that we're never going to pay back. Let's get another one hundred billion dollars and hand it out all over the world. What's your reaction to that? Well, I think the simple truth is the news media is the Democrats, the democrats of the news media.

So they're going to, you know, basically broadcast Biden's thing and suggest if you oppose a to Ukraine you must be some sort of putin stooge. You can't even ask questions where is this going, why is it going? How much is going? They've sent far more aid to Ukraine in the last few months than they've sent to Israel in forty or fifty years, I mean, and people don't have any accurate sense of how much money's been sent.

Now you could say that's all justified because the Russians deserve it, but you you know, they don't really let your question it, and they're certainly not paying attention to yes, how this administration has been a pile of SAPs toward Iran. I don't think the American people writ large think of Iran as a democracy because it's not. So if you think democracy dies in darkness, why

are you enabling Iran to be such a pestilence in the Middle East. Well, you have a great column up about CNN and MSNBC absurdly compare Israel to Russia, that somehow they're the same, when they're just directly the opposite. The only functioning democracy. The only civilized part of the Middle East is Israel,

and they're in terrible conditions because of Hesblood in the north. They have one hundred and fifty thousand rockets and guided missiles and other missiles they could obliterate large numbers of Israeli cities, which would result possibly in the Third World War. And tim lastly, do you think we're on the eve of nineteen thirty eight, nineteen thirty nine or on something different? Well, I certainly hope not. I think that what should proceed here is Hamas needs to be rooted

out. And I think the first question about Hamas is we should have unity about these people? Are they're not worthy of a two state solution because they don't they don't believe in a two state solution. We should just laugh at people talking about a two state solution because it's sort of like saying, well, can you coexist with your neighbor when he tries to break into your house every night and shoot you in the head? Please, how does that play

make any sense? You have a proportional response. As the barbarians rape your daughters, you have to understand, you got to have to have a proportional response and be careful. I mean, it's unbelievable. This is why people hate the media Bill is that they get in there and they think they're the secretary of State. Just get out. Stop awa are the peacemakers now?

Just report what's going on and stop trying to run the government. Nobody elected you to run the government, but they always act like they are the government. Sit down and report what's happening. Well, the media should know its roll and shut its mouth. I love your column about reliable media, aren't ashamed of fake news on the Gaza Hospital NBC and Lester Holt wines about backlash

to lefty students demanding Jewish genocide. We have Hamas chapters all over major universities right now, paid for by God knows who, and when they're protesting, they have more paragliders kill Israelis. We have Hesbala chapters all over state universities, and I would hope at some point we recognize it. Once again, Tim Graham, thank you NewsBusters dot Org, great website, good stuff.

It came out through ESPN fifteen thirty down and dirty yep, the home of Moe and also the great Tony Pike yep. That I guess with this sign stealing thing, a low level staffer with a military background has emerged as one of the lynch

pins in the NCAA investigation of Michigan's alleged sign stealing operation. Connor Stallions, a football analyst with the Wolverines, a retired captain in the US Marine Corps, is a person of interest in the investigation whether number two. Number two ranked Michigan violated an NCUBA rule by scouting future opponents in person at games. The NCAA prohibited that in nineteen ninety four. So let me get this straight. So Michigan Michigan State's playing Michigan on Saturday. Correct, correct, So

you can't scout Michigan State's previous games. Let me let me read you the rule and see if it applies. Are you prepared? Go ahead? Quote? Any attempt to record, either through audio or video means any signals given by an imposing player, coach, or other team personnel is prohibited. Like, well, well what does that mean? I guess they went to practice, Willie and uh, you know, Bill Belichick Just yeah, they went to practice, and you know, I guess, you know, videotape their

signals and then their signals. Their sources say, NCAAs enforcement staff's level of interest in Stallions is so significant it sought access to his computer. They seized it as part of its investigations. Haven't They seized his computer apparently, so, so that's going to tell the tale. And uh, Coach Harbaugh denied any knowledge or involvement. Well, he says, I'm stupid, Harball is

stupid. He's probably also going to be running Taylor. Now if that happens and they're sanctioned, oh well, then they can't play for the Big Ten title and or the Big Show in January. What happens to the Michigan program and Tom Weedman and also right down to dream what happens and George what happened? Well that that's it. But how in today's world of college football, on which you pay players millions of dollars? Right, how does Michigan get

in trouble for recruiting violations? Yeah, and they got like a slap on the wrist. Well you know, you got what a four game suspension or whatever it was. So why can't you look at the signals? It's like the third base coach in baseball? Why can't you look at that? I used to do that for Thomas Funeral Home. I don't know what I picked the signals and the indicator all the time because you could study it, analyze

it. Now you have AI involved. They're putting these signals and to play itself through computers, tell and hooking up, which is which to say the signal means this, And that's what Michigan does to cheat. Well, you know what's going to happen. This is a perfect ESPN thirty for thirty. Who cares this is going to be? This is going to be one bye

by Jeremy Shaff. How about this one go ahead? This is worse than both the Astros and the Patriots. It's both use of technology for an advantage, and there's allegations they are filming prior games, not just the end game. Quote if it was just an in game situation, which I did for Thomas Funeral, right, that's different. Going and filming somewhere you're not supposed

to be. That's illegal. It's too much of an advantage of quote unquote, and there could be a special prosecutor appointed, just as Joe Dieters may get involved, what he may leave the bank Melissa Palace demned love. So they went to these practices. Somehow got in there and was videotaping the signals

correct and the games Michigan State played in the paint and Olive's state. They would hook up the signal with the play itself correct and come up with a program to guess what the play is going to be based upon the signal.

All on the efforts of winning how about the NC double eight identifying the opponent's most likely course of action and most dangerous course of action identifying and exploiting critical vulnerabilities and centers of gravity in the opponent's scouting process as a serious offense? Are you kidding? I didn't know the NCAA was still in business. I

thought they were gone. Will he the stooge reporters approach service every local temestar heating and air conditioning dealers temestar quality you could feel in Cincinnati calls shmid Heating at KOLI five one three five three one sixty nine hundred. How about that? Sallions said, Beginning in January of twenty twenty two, I purchased homes and running each of the bedrooms on Airbnb while sleeping on the couch to help me pay for my travel on behalf of Michigan football. So this, I

guess. Retired marine officer so save money so he could travel right, to keep it off the budget of Michigan. He retired as a captain of the Marine Corps and joined the Michigan staff as a off field analyst. Off field analyst, Yeah, yeah, your comments on this? Does Tom Weedman know about this? How does he support this bunch of cheaters in ann Arbor? They must, they'll they'll shut down the big house. It might be the outhouse. How do you cheat in college football anymore? Have everyone paid so

much? They figured it out? So we'll see what happens.

Well, I guess I'll have to go back and figure out if they you know, they've done all this and live. What

I guess imagine if Michigan has to fourfeit two wins to Ohio State Columbus, Paul say about this, Well, they'll have a They'll have a state holiday. If that happens.

mean he had to do it somewhere, so I'm not sure. I'm not sure either, but I know Halbaugh Jim Harbaugh will leave Michigan because he can go to the National Football League and make a boatload of jack right, and he's had it up to here with the NCAA rules.

Well, if you ain't cheating, you're not trying. Harball is a cheater when when you get caught there it goes segment Thank You.

Now you kids nineteen simultaneously, and they had a great piece on the life and Times at Trisha mckis one of the three great anchors in the Try State.

You got Tanya A. Rourke, you have Shari Palelo, and then you also have the great Trisha Mackie and her life and time starting so many years ago, thirty years ago, is a street reporter for a brand new operation called Fox nineteen. Tricia McKie, Welcome again to the Bill Cunningham Show. Trisha, Let's go back thirty or thirty two years ago? Where did you get your starting news at WLW. It like a full circle, isn't it?

Isn't that crazy if somebody had told you at that point that in the year twenty twenty three, in October, you're going to celebrate your thirtieth anniversary at Fox nineteen. You left here and then you became a street reporter. What would you have said and be interviewed by Bill Cunningham, I'd say, get out of this. It's not going to happen no way, right. Why did you want to get into news going back to NKU, Why do you want to do that in the very beginning because of beffyly Hill Supper Club

fire. I mean honest, that was like a thing that sparked my interest, so to speak, no pun intended, But I was a kid at the time, and I can remember being in North Katack he grew up in Newport and sitting on the front portion of my house seeing the plume of smoke and wondering what that was and turning on the TV and Al Shatlecotty News telling me what was going on, and I just wanted to ask so many questions.

I wanted to see it for myself. And I was a kid, and you know, I remember sitting out there and having this conversation with my dad, who passed away, and that I would love to be there asking questions and helping and doing anything that I can. And that was where I got the first bug to do news and ask a bunch of questions. I ask a lot of questions, Bill, I mean, that's the way I've

always been. And so when you got an NK, was there a time between NKU graduation and the newsroom here or did that you go from one to the other? I was. I was an intern at WLT. I was an intern at Store Cable, which was with the with Dick von Haynes, the cool Goal was my first boss in Cincinnati, Beautiful. I know, he was such a great, great man. And I did a lot of modeling at the time to kind of make some money because there was no money

in radio whatsoever. Uh. Then when I was at w c KY and I was a board op to a producer behind the scenes to finally being on on air doing all that for five bucks six bucks an hour. And then I heard this rumor that there was going to be a television new news operation in Cincinnati called Box nineteen. And at the time, I just wanted to I wanted an opportunity. I was getting ready to graduate college at NKU. I wanted to be on TV somewhere in Cincinnati. I wanted to start out

in Cincinnati. Even though all my professors and past teachers were telling me it was never gonna happen. You know, you're gonna want up in some you know farm land out in the middle of Iowa, and that's where you're going to get your start because you have to pay your dues. And so I called all the news directors in town. I would call five, nine, and twelve, kept saying, you know, please give me a shot,

give me a shot. Nobody wanted anything to do with me. And then this individual named Lisa Coltz, who is now Lisa's lattery would answer the phone at Fox nineteen. I called her every day. I'm saying maybe six months, and finally she got so tired of the harassment of me calling her every day. I got an interview at Fox nineteen because I pestered them to death, and they hired me as a freelance reporter and they just said, we'll

call you when we need you. So I was working at wlwwcky doing some modeling, and then I got this freelance gig at Fox nineteen, and so I pretty much just would go to work every day at Fox nineteen whenever I had the opportunity and just walk around the newsroom and the news director at the time, Greg Computer, would say, you know, what's she doing here? Well, she wants to go out a story. Okay, we'll send her out a story. Get her out of the newsroom and get her out

of here. Get her out of here, get her out of here. Can you imagine if you weren't so persistent, if you you know, I always tell young people that persistence, never give up is number one, because it's not uh, it's not love, it's not persue if none of that stuff. What it is is never quit, never say die. If you want something, go for it. Don't take no for an answer. And that's you, yes, yes, and you you know what, you can't take no for an answer. And you have to stand out. Everybody wants

that job. I mean you know they're lining up to get that job. So you have to stand out. You have to just you have to be special. And you can be special very very easily by just being persistent. That's it. Yeah, Jack, Catherine, At what point did you go from a stringer a news reporter on occasion on a story when they had too many stories, not enough reporters, how'd you get to the anchor desk?

Yeah? Because at the time, we only had a ten of oclock news it was a half hour and a midnight newscast which was a half hour. That was it, and no social media, so you know, we didn't have that much to do. And it was within four months I was I went from freelance to part time part time to full time full time to uh being fill in anchor as because Phyllis Watson, who was the first original anchor, left and I was filling in as a kid. Just absolutely it was

like before I went to puberty. Like my voice was so high. I look back at that time. And the hair, how about the hair? How about the hair? There was a lot of hair. There was a lot of hairs over the years. Yeah, you got any favorites? You like that big eighties there probably I like the short one, I like the show yep. But anyway, you and Jack Antherton explain that I have I have vivid pictures of you. Jack Atherton, who used to date Madonna.

Believe it or not, Jack Atherton dated Madonna in New York City, groke up with her. Yes, he said to her, I've had enough of you, uh, but none the less. Give me the list of some of the male anchors you've worked with, well, Jack Atherton was the first one, and he took me under his wing. He's a wonderful man, one of the smartest individuals I've ever met, you know, also a lawyer, and he just kind of like took me under his wing. Honestly, there's nothing else to say about it. I mean, he was he was

the best. He was kind, he was like a father figure, and he was a great individual. Ben Swan was in there at one point. Scott Schneider, Dan Carroll from WLW loved Dan Carroll. He was great. He was a great reporter, and then he filled in he was and then he got the main anchor gig for a while, and then Rob Williams has been there for a long time. We've been working together for about twenty five years now. Twenty five years, Yeah, are usually you and Rob twenty

five years before the turn of the century. Yeah, Rob, he's been at the station. I think we are on year twenty six this point with him. Now. He went to the morning show and stayed on the morning show. I was on the morning show for a little while with him, and he stayed when I went to Knights and then we've been back reunited at nights for years now. And as far as the stories you've covered personally, give me the two or three that highlight light the corners of your mind,

the two or three stories over the past thirty years that you recall. You know, I I loved traveling. When I got the opportunity to go to Bosnia, I spent a lot of time there covering the war in Israel and Germany, covering, you know, things that were places I'd never thought I would ever go to. Locally, it was a story on Anna Reno, you know, cute little girl that died of cystic fibrosis. Touched my heart. Could it could have been any of our kids, Absolutely touched my heart.

I've interviewed a killer. I didn't know it at the time, but he had just killed his next door neighbor. Gave me a full interview in the attic of his home. That was crazy. I found out later that night that he was arrested for her murder. There's been a lot of stories over the years, Bill, I mean, just like you, they all kind of and then as we talk about them, it's like, wow, you know, I remember a lot from this area, and you've been offered

like like Schuri Plo, tan Yard Rourk offered opportunities to go elsewhere. Why has Trisha Mackie stayed home? I love it here. My family's here. You know, I've got five kids. You know, Caitlin's my oldest. I adopted her when my sister passed away back in two thousand and five. So and then Spencer's now twenty three, Piper is going to be twenty two, Dashed eighteen sailor sixteen. You know, my dad passed away, my mom lives with us. I've been married for over thirty years. It's home.

It's just like you. You've had the opportunity. You've actually you know, you went to Chicago. You did your dig in Chicago. Still living in Cincinnati, right TV. I did that, but I didn't, you know. The difficulty was I could not leave Cincinnati, and I don't want to leave Cincinnati. I went back and forth to New York for five years. I went in and out of gore to one hundred and twenty five times,

and that by itself is something I just don't want to leave. Kind Of like Chris Collinsworth and you talked to him because he's a multi zillionaire now and he could live anywhere, but he and his wife want to live in Fort Thomas. He wants to live in Cincinnati. And I get that. I remember, I remember when you were in Chicago and I went up to Chicago for on the set of your show, and you were still in Cincinnati. I mean, you've had opportunities to go. I mean, you you

can assess. This is a This is a wonderful town. The people here are great, they really are. This is a perfect big small town, right yeah. If you like opera, if you like traffic, none, yeah, very little is the traffic. People good people and functional high schools largely. And you have UC and Xavier and Thomas Moore and NKU. You have the symphony, you have the opera, I have the ballet if you like that kind of stuff. Have all the sports you can handle. And

you have higher state football. If you want the best, you have Kentucky basketball. If you want that savior every now and then. Ope, you know how about UC under Luke Fickle. That was unbelievable, And it's the best. It's the best place to live in the world, I think, right right, It's it's a safe town. The community, this the you know, the everybody's I guess values, I should say they're intact. I mean, it's it's a good place. This is a good town. Latricia

McKie, how many more years? You're still relatively young in a sense. You're married. You married a lawyer, which is always a wise decision, you and Chris. But uh, nonetheless you've done it for thirty years. Uh. Are you a lifer at this point? Yeah, I don't have any plans to leave Cincinnati, that's for sure. Or I mean, unless you retire. I'm going to take your job someday and then I don't have to comb my hair in the morning. I don't worry about I hear much.

Be honest with you, Well, do you remember anything? I mean, like with your career. You've been here, You've won Marconi Awards, You've done it all. I mean, is there anything that stands out in your mind that you've covered? Well, the incidents that I had with Leslie Isaiah Gains in our relationship, and the cases that we had. Whenever there was an important criminal case, I knew the attorneys involved, and I wanted to put on the defense council, put on the lawyers, and this talk

radio business, it's waxing and waning. As far as what it is, we've gone through three or four major major cycles of talk radio. In the beginning, for the first four or five years I was on the air, the rules were, don't talk about politics, don't talk about religion, don't talk about sex, do none of that stuff. So I did carburetion,

I did urology shows, I did flower arrangements. Then after nineteen eighty eight, when it all opened up and you could you could not provide, you didn't have to provide equal time advocacy, talk radio began and I'd say from there until about two thousand, it was the commandos of the airwaves. I went to Chicago and did TV shows with Herauda Rivera about what it was to

be in talk radio, how it changed. I did Bob Brown a little bit fifty to fifty Clove in nineteen eighty four, and then after a nine to eleven happened and became serious once again been advocating the American way of life. And now what it is as another revolution is going on in talk radio, which is the consolidation of the business and to become relevant to a new

generation of Americans born in this century. We like to think that we have now large numbers of people in their twenties and thirties who find what we do relevant, and so the waves of talk radio and we continue to ride the top of the wave and hopefully it doesn't crash. Yeah. Mind, how times have changed now in thirty years is insane, you know, from no cell phones and no computers and to where we are now it's and just social

media and everything being on camera and just life has changed so much. Well, when I think about the great newscasters in this town, whether it's Al Shadowcattie, or whether it's Kid Andrews or Rob Brown or Jerry Springer, you're in that category with Tanya and Sharie and you. And there's three left to three. You must have maybe ninety years in broadcast journalism among you. Do you three ever get together and talk? We do. I love them.

They are wonderful women. I do. They are great And even when Tammy was in town, we got together with Cammy as well. I still talk to Cammy is out in Denver. But they're a great group of ladies. It's always good to reach across the aisle and develop friendships, whether or not you are on a different station or whatever, because you can really understand a lot of the things that you go through when you have a peer that goes through the same thing. Right, and you three, and of course Cammy

was also one, and Kid Andrews. Of those are the queens of local TV journalism. And I watch every watching how about normal? How about normal? I mean unbelievable normal? Rush she and she teaches this. She's fantastic career, I don't think so. I know that she's with her she's a grandma now, and I know she spends a lot of time with her kids. Good woman. All right, Tricia, may you have at least thirty more years. I doubt that will happen, But may you continue to do

what you do as long as you want to do it. God bless you, Willie, and God bless America. XIX Fox nineteen Tricia Mackie, give my best to all the folks there. You bet, God bless you. Let's continue with Laura the line becomes available five one, three, seven, four, nine, seven thousand. Trisia Mackie, Schari Palelo, Tanya O'Rourke. I'm not sure there's another city in America that has three anchors of that quality. At it collectively for about ninety years, all in their hometown.

How about that. Let's continue, Bill Cunningham, News Radio seven hundred you on these days, America. Lansford good hitting, Oakland third basement steps in levels of bad, and Meer's bringing it and the pitch is hitting the air foul off first, Benzinger backing and calling, and the nineteen ninety World Championship belongs to the Cincinnati Reds. As you might expect, they pile out of

the dugout. They are jumping up and high fiving all smiles as Blue Panella and his coaching staff break out of the dugout, gloves and caps all over the endfield. The Cincinnati Reds have done the absolute improbable by defeating the club considered to be the best in Major League Baseball, and they've done it in a four game series. Sweet Hello, Bietump Sculls. I'm broadcasting God on this date, Willie. That was October the twentieth in Oakland, California,

nineteen ninety when the Reds sweep of the Oakland A's and Tony Larusa. Thirty three years have passed. Bingo, who's that announcer? I think he's visiting Canada right now, probably getting the joy. I think he wants to be a hockey announcer. Next and after the game, as you know, right, the Reds did not have available if there was a game a game five, Eric Davis correct, Billy Hatcher, one of the coaches at Madera, right, yes, that the all time batting percentage leader and all of baseball

in the World Series. Correct, And Joserijo Steideberg's because he was done. He said my elbow was done. Yeah. So if they didn't win that game, was it like two to one something? Something out three to two one to the game five would have been a crisis. We have Tom Browning standing by, and of course the wives are out on the field and their husband's and Tom's DeBie is celebrating with T and T and Tom. What a day. Oh, it's been fabulous. Sorry she couldn't be here, but

How about her friending Stadium? It's been thirty three years. Unreal. Will it ever happen again in our lifetime? I hope so, I know. But what

I think in that series, Yes, we talked to two former two of the old folks from back in the decade of the seventies and Johnny bench and and Joe Morgan hop out a Cuban. Oh man, it is it sweet? He's a sweet body. I know that it was serious. I tell you, if you know, four games on their own and uh, you know this thing.

Everybody do something to win, and you can see every day we got a different different hero, different guy who do who the job on the packing Jselrio fantastic, I can we can ask for it? How about this segment between nineteen seventy five and nineteen ninety, Yes, a fifteen year time span. Yes, the Red Legs won twenty percent of the World Series seventy five seventy

six red right right. Secondly, as far as streaks in the World Series, they won the last four against the Yanks and seventy six correct, then they won shall we they also won seventy five the last right, So that's five in a row. And then they won four in a row. Nine, So the Reds franchise has won nine in a row. How's that? Well, we ever see another World Series? I would say, let's make it thirteen in a row pretty soon. I think the record the they can

get there ten or eleven in a row. But to have this franchise win nine World Series games in a row, then go and when twenty percent of the World Series between nineteen seventy five and nineteen ninety, that's not bad. Well, they the Stuja paw, here's junosol. We're in the Reds clubhouse. Needs say it's PANDEMONI and the in the clubhouse we're just outside the clubhouse
