23:25 But that doesn't happen, but once every year or two. Oh, that kind of ended with the green screen in Iraq. They're really good coverage. Yeah, that's well, that's another thing they've been spending. I just think that they're deluded, they're not doing a very good job of anything, they're extremely slanted and bigoted. It's a horrible operation. You wonder why nobody watches it. Even the left, if they want to watch something, they'll watch MSNBC, which is at least entertaining. Oh yeah, for me it's MSNBC all day. Seriously, and sometimes I just want to say that I just can't imagine you there sitting there hunched over and leaning forward from the couch chewing on popcorn as you watch MSNBC. No, no, let's understand. I have it streaming to my hearing aids in the background all day. So I'm just walking around. That's even worse. I'm not allowed on the street in that condition because it could be very dangerous to my health.
24:24 But yeah, it's it's fantastic. It's I really I really enjoy listening to it I could pull a million clips from it, but then you know who gives a shit you can watch that yourself I did get a clip from CNN regarding This doxing of this guy who did the Nancy the pantsy explosive video the another thing I kind of missed the doxing and I heard about it. I think it's bullshit. I think it's bullshit. I think it was bullshit. Everything else seems to be. It was, uh, it's, and I think it started maybe even on Fox and Friends. So the story went like this. I didn't clip any of this, but the story went like, so the guy makes a video. He's just a single guy, just one guy making a little meme. It turns out he has a whole bunch of websites that he runs memes on and makes money on, but okay. Um,
25:17 And he's also African-American and then they went to Facebook and Facebook said, this is the guy! And they doxxed him and they outed him. And I'm like, wow, Facebook really did that? I have a hard time believing that. And although it doesn't explicitly debunk it in this clip, this is the reliable sources with Brian Seltzerwater. I don't know if it's the guy who wrote the story from Daily Beast or who broke the story or the editor or whatever and he gives a little insight as to what happened and who this guy is. This is a video that was a hoax that reached up to the highest, highest levels of power. Let's just stop it. It's not a hoax. It wasn't a hoax. It was at least a meme. If not, I mean...
26:04 Help me out John, it's not a hoax. I don't know this video so I can't talk about it. I understand what you mean. It's the video of Nancy Pelosi sounding like she's drunk. That video. That's what this is about. Oh, the Pelosi video? Yes, the Pelosi video. I don't think it was a hoax. She was talking, wasn't she? It wasn't at the same speed. But it wasn't like a hoax. Yeah. So satire and humor is now hoax. This is a video that was a hoax that reached up to the highest, highest levels of power with Rudy Giuliani himself. Wait, hold on. Stop.
26:41 You're not gonna tell me that he's gonna go on and claim that Trump reposted that video and it was Trump. No, no, I wish no, I wish He almost did that. Yeah. I know. I thought like oh, here we go No, he didn't do that pushing it out And so there was a lot of speculation about who might or might not be behind this and so Kevin Poulsen was able to track down down the kind of network of fake news sites that were pushing this and then the person that first uploaded the video. And what we learned from the story is that there's a profit motive here, that you can put up a lot of these videos on Facebook, you can make a quick buck. Didn't this guy say he made $1,000? Yeah, I mean... This, by the way, is bullshit. Since when does Facebook have a monetization scheme?
27:25 I never heard of such a thing. You got a thousand dollars from Facebook? I don't think they do that. No, I think what the guy did is he has his own websites and that's where they found him. He just has his name on those websites and these little... Why is Kevin Poulsen wasting his time doing this? Who's that? Who cares who this guy is? It's just something floating out there. Hey man. You know who it is, you know. Hey man. You can't do that to the Queen. Why are they so upset about this to the point where they gotta track the guy down like a dog? Well, a reminder? A reminder is that the president tweeted out a video showing Nancy Pelosi's incompetence in verbal communication and it was very evident and it was kind of saddening and ageist for sure, although I guess Trump can do it. And to cover that up, this it's almost like the
28:18 Like Benghazi. It was a video, a movie on the internet that they were all upset about. That's why they went in there and killed everybody. It was an anti-Muslim video. So it's the same thing. It's like, oh, this is Pelosi. This is a hoax, hoax. So she's like, she's drunk. Just to cover up this other video. They'll never bring that one back. Put up a lot of these videos on Facebook. You can make a quick buck. Didn't this guy say he made $1,000? Yeah, I mean, but look, that's not... It might have been a lot of money to him, but I don't think it was a pure profit motive I think for him. It was a matter of ideology. It was you know. He's a big It may have been a lot of money to him Maybe that what the guy said and there was no money involved. What are they talking about? They're just making this up It's very annoying part of that clip is that little section right there. Oh
29:12 And that may... Facebook paid him a thousand dollars, well it may have been a lot of money to him, but what are you gonna say Bill? Well I don't know, Jim, what do you think? I think this comes from inherent disgust, anger and jealousy from the news media who feel that These people are in their lane. Because if you distribute something that they call news, even though hoax of course can be news, and you get paid for it, they hate that. I think anyone, they make money, these people, but I think any one of them would be like, shit, I'd like $1,000 for posting something. I think it's just envy. It could be, but it's wrong.
29:55 You could say that about everything we do on this show, John. It might have been a lot of money to him, but I don't think it was a pure profit motive. I think for him it was a matter of ideology. He's a big Trump supporter. And one of the most interesting things about this story to me was that you don't need some sophisticated operation in order to Publish fake news or publish a hoax that'll grab the country's attention. He doesn't take a Russian bot farm It's just one person with video editing software tricking people. Yeah, exactly Key to the story and the reason the people saying that you shouldn't have named him because actually I kind of take it She was that tricking people who was tricked by this This is my god. She's drunk. Nobody bought this. Oh
30:42 This is the disdain they have for their viewers, man. They must think their viewers are morons. Yeah, yeah, because they got tricked, man. They got tricked into thinking Pelosi was drunk when it was, what am I doing here? Take a Russian box office. Come on. Just one person with video editing software tricking people. Yeah, exactly. And I thought that was the real key to the story. And the reason the people saying that you shouldn't have named him because he's a private citizen. That's the key to stop again. How is that the key to the story let's hear it again? Yeah exactly and I thought that was the real key to the story in the way Let's go back. What was the key to the story of hoax little grab the country's attention. He doesn't take a Russian bot farm It's just one person with video editing software tricking people yeah exactly and I thought that was the real key to the screen I see okay. Yes, it's it's thank God. We're here. Thank God Brian Stelter
31:42 CNN and the Daily Beast are here because these days just one guy in his basement scratching his hairy balls can make a hoax that could unsettle the world. Does that sound about right? Do you think that's what they're thinking? Kind of, yeah. It's pretty close to it. And the people saying that you shouldn't have named him because he's a private citizen, I'm seeing a lot of people on Twitter saying you all were irresponsible for outing him. Yeah, I don't think that's accurate. First of all, I think he outed himself. You know by attaching his name to several fake news sites that then push the video Okay And then he spoke to our reporter at length and on the record for an hour and a half and then we also withheld some information that he didn't that he didn't want out there that he felt would impinge his privacy so I I I
32:31 I am glad that these people want to protect the privacy of this man, but I think our actions in this case were right on the money. And I need to call out Fox and Friends, if not Tucker and anyone else on Fox who talked about it, as a bunch of bigoted racists. You all went into the, it was an African American man who was just posting videos, African American man. You racist douchebags. Douchebags. And yeah, it's, oh my goodness, I gotta tell you. Well, I didn't follow any of these, either of these two stories that you led with. This is the problem, I'm telling you right now, unhook this MSNBC feed. Right, playing right now as far as we know. What are you talking about? This is great! This is what I bring to the show, this is my contribution.
