1:09:45 Alright, anyway, please support us for Sunday show Sundays are always harder than Thursday So I'm not looking forward to what we'll see on the spreadsheet. Although we will be there with your news analysis. Borac org slash and and of course you can always continue to go out and propagate that formula Our formula is this we go out we hit people in the mouth All right All right, now I have to go into the big news of the week. This was anticipated, of course. The release of some of the 911 call tapes. Yeah, like we're still recording 911 calls on tape.
1:10:41 It's funny how people, the tapes had been released and then actually the release of the tapes actually said tape one, tape two. No, these of course are digital recordings. And now there was a couple things that were interesting. Now of course I listened to them. I listened to what was released. As you know, none of the evidence of this Sandy Hook shooting is actually evidence of a shooting. It's a lot of evidence about Adam Lanza's home and all this stuff. But the interesting was all of the news outlets, except ultimately CNN, I think, who played a little bit, refused to play the tapes.
1:11:23 Which of course made me highly interested in hearing how important the stuff, the information was that's on these tapes. So let us just go down a quick list here. We have now, I'll start with, remember I get to do some MSNBC stuff now. And although I've been banned, I've been banned from playing anything by him, I'm bringing it out because you said I could do it now. No, no, you weren't banned from playing anything by him. I was banned from playing anything by Toure. Oh, I thought you were banned from playing anything from Rachel. I have that too. Oh yeah, Toure, you're right, it was Toure. Here's Toure. Why, you recorded this assuming you were going to be unbanned when you actually haven't been. Correct. The ban that you gave me for I forgot what it was now is off. You don't even know what the ban was. I'll remember it eventually. It'll come to me, damn it.
1:12:24 Here's Ture explaining why they're not playing these 911 calls. obviously a sensitive issue for the families of the lost loved ones and for many others in the community and for many in america for that matter nbc news is currently reviewing the tapes but for now at least we are not we're choosing not to hear that not to have a much using not to do you hear how it's not to have a today's release and a month-long court fight to make those tapes public opponents argue the wounds are still too fresh but
1:13:08 Those who argued for their release say the calls may provide insight into the way the response was handled, and perhaps get us better prepared for future events. Oh, yes, be prepared for future events. You know guys, just because the media has something, a photograph, a tape, a piece of video, doesn't mean that we have to release it, doesn't mean we have to say whatever we get, we just put it out and let the people decide how they feel about it. We make decisions. And this is what's so interesting, that this is happening the same time where the... Yes, he's a douche. There's CCTV footage of Paul Walker's car crashing, bursting into flames. There's pictures. Everything is on it except for the burnt to a crisp body. But every picture is out there. But what to air, what to broadcast every single day. And we're talking about audio. We're talking about people calling up. We're not talking about pictures or video. We're talking about 911 calls of people calling, perhaps in distress.
1:14:05 You know, we have to ask, is this valuable for the public good? Does it advance the story? Does it enhance the narrative? Does it enhance our understanding of what happened in a given situation? When did he become a knight of morality? Why is this happening? I can only think of a few things and one of them is... They're meant to shut up and not play this because well perhaps there's nothing on it or it's really unimportant. There's nothing on it or somebody was, you know, they call it, there was no emotion, didn't make any sense. All the things that have been uncovered by the YouTubers that have gone over most of this evidence with a fine-toothed comb, much of the stuff they've uncovered is quite interesting. Well here's Rachel. Now Rachel did a 20-minute segment about
1:14:49 No, she started off with oh I turned She started off with how the New York Times published a picture on September 12 2001 of someone jumping from the World Trade Center And you know how this this whole thing about the responsibility It's the credibility of the media and it's so hard and doing journalism is hard and making the hard tough decisions. It's so hard. Oh, it's so hard. We don't know. Now this is the day before the tapes are released. I think I'm going to have the vapors. Exactly. She is so insincere about this. It is a very, very uncomfortable thing.
1:15:28 It's uncomfortable. So she has not heard the tapes. The tapes are not released until the next day. Already she's presumed. Already she's uncomfortable. Yes. But it is part of why the job of a free and responsible press is not just an important thing in a democracy. It's a hard thing. It's hard, John. Don't think that you can be a free press in a democracy. Not you, Dvorak, because it's hard. And it's really complicated. And it's disturbing. And you may not have the balls for it, my friend. And it's a hard job. And it is hard to do well. It's not hard, Rachel. Hard is hard. It's not hard. Remember George Bush going on and on? I guess. Of the people who do it to be worthy of the responsibility that they have. Are you worthy of the responsibility? Because I'm about to play some of these tapes, John. I hope you're worthy of that responsibility, that huge responsibility. Tomorrow morning in a law office in Danbury, Connecticut, the news media will get access to the tapes of the 911 phone calls that were made in Newtown, Connecticut on the morning of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shootings.
1:16:25 The state of Connecticut and the prosecutor's office and representatives of the victims' families say they did not want those tapes to ever become available to the public. Ever! But the Associated Press sued to get access to the tapes. Those horrible Associated Press people! And a judge ruled in their favor and the appeals were dropped and so tomorrow morning in Connecticut, the media for the first time will get those tapes. Woo! And then what? And then what? And now it's up to the good judgment of the media to decide whether those tapes should be publicly broadcast. Whether what they will add to the public understanding of the Sandy Hook massacre outweighs the additional pointless trauma that playing those tapes publicly will undoubtedly cause to the families and the survivors in Newtown. Forgive me if I'm wrong, John, but didn't we not hear over and over again the so-called tapes from the cell phones on the 9-11 airplanes?
1:17:17 and phone calls from people on the 98th floor. I mean over and over again. The biggest tragedy in American history and now all of a sudden we have the Dame of Morality, the Dame, she's on her white horse named Morality, riding through the desert of morality to stop us. Giving us all kinds of imagery here. Again it was an Associated Press lawsuit that brought about the access to the tapes that's gonna happen tomorrow morning. It's interesting and all of the AP's own news stories about their own efforts to get access. Then she goes into all, okay so I'm gonna stop that there but even Al Jazeera won't play the tapes. Recordings of the 911 calls from Sandy Hook Elementary School. The shooting there were released earlier today. The audio reveals a mixture of calm and anguish as town dispatchers urge
1:18:08 urged panicked callers to take cover as gunshots could be heard at times in the background Al Jazeera America will not play those audio recordings. Why not? Of all the people who should be playing it, please listen to the Curry Dvorak Consulting Group. Someone needs to play these things to get some ratings. You're morons or you're completely in control. I think this is the point really. Al Jazeera Nobody knows are even on anymore. I mean they're they're on them Al Jazeera America's on the current network nobody's ever watched that network or cares and Nobody watches Al Jazeera. I mean I always forget about
1:18:49 about them and I'm doing all kinds of clips. I've got some news from Tazikistan, some network, but I don't watch Al Jazeera. I try to, but I keep forgetting about it. They need to get some attention. They would have run this and been the only network to run it. Then everyone would have been, of course, oh, this is terrible that they ran these horrible, well, that would have got them a lot of attention. They know this. There is no tape. Well, here's so I have I listened to all seven tapes and I was dumbfounded that the majority of the recordings are of the acting custodian for that day.
1:19:38 Rick Thorne who has never been tapes the tapes have been released that public well, oh, they're all over the place. Okay. Yeah The tape and there and they're bullshit, right? Well, listen to what I'm saying the majority of what is on the tapes and I only I Listen to them. I listened to them four times. I got what you need to hear You don't need to hear anything else. But the majority of the tapes are of the listen carefully acting custodian for that day Rick Thorne. He was a fill-in for that day. This guy is... Find an interview with him by any of the networks. Find an interview with this guy by anybody. Find a print interview with this guy. Non-existent. This guy might as well be a zombie. Yet here he is and he has a very interesting way of talking.
1:20:30 Alright, what about the students in the front of the building? Everything's locked up as far as I know. I'm not in the front. Alright, you're in lockdown? So he says he's not inside. Are you in lockdown? Yeah, they're in lockdown. Did you see anything out the window? We're in lockdown. No, it's still going on. I can't get over there. Okay, I don't want you to go over there. I want to know what's happening with the students though along the front corridors. This is in the front parking lot? Yes. I'm not in the front, I'm actually down the other part, but I'm close. I'm close! Do you see anything or hear anything more? I keep hearing shooting, I keep hearing popping. Alright, Jen, let's get one caller, I'll take my caller. Alright, now who am I talking with right now?
1:21:18 I'm the acting head custodian for today. Newtown, what's the address of the school? 12-0, Richardson Drive. OK. Well, the acting custodian knows that he knows the address exactly well. Something's happening. OK. Are you in the room? All right, now when you say the school is in lockdown? All the doors are locked. We're doing classrooms. OK. He knows about everything. He hasn't been up front. All the doors are locked, including the classrooms. We're in lockdown, although he isn't there. So at this time, you're defending in place. Control, one flight down the highway. Excuse me?
1:22:02 Interesting the dispatcher I guess that's just a mistake on the dispatchers side saying you're defending in place. Now from a conspiratorial angle and by the way a lot of people hate me for doing this but I don't I don't care someone has to go hate you people be like oh that's the people who watch MSNBC and are happy that they didn't play the tapes because it's so insulting to the dead children John that's what that's the people who will hate me. Oh nobody said that to you. No not yet. At this time all the rooms are locked. Did you see anything out front before this started? No, I was out all morning. No, and I was out all morning. See, he even starts off the call with, I'm outside. So all of this is very shaking.
1:22:43 Where are you in the... Jim teacher told me that he saw a shadow going past the gym. The gym teacher just told me, this is all new by the way, the gym teacher just apparently walked up to him as they're shooting all over the school. As he's outside doing what? Who knows and someone's walking outside. Can you get down? Yes. Alright. This guy's the worst actor ever. Wait for it. They are running on the outside, more than one person now. They're still shooting going on, please. Alright, what about injuries at this time? So now we hear something that sounds like gunshots in the background. We're not sure what that is. Excuse me? What about injuries at this time? I don't know of any injuries right now. Okay. Here we go. They're coming at me down here at this point.
1:23:41 Ken, I need you to call the state police. So there was someone yelling at the acting custodian for the day. This film is still going on. Okay, now listen to I did some editing for you obviously listening to some of the language he's using in this part of the call because he basically stays on as the eyes and ears of 9-1-1 again a guy who we have never seen in an interview anywhere ever Do you hear any police officers at this time Rick? I'm hearing talking. I'm not seeing anybody, but I'm hearing talking. Like I said, I'm sitting in the middle of this corridor.
1:24:23 Yet so how unlikely he's standing in the middle of the corridor the shooting going on makes sense Outside what this is well, that's what he said first and now he's inside Listen he's like I'm the custodian. I'm the custodian listen to this I Okay, now this is a big problem for me. If I'm the custodian and I'm saying I'm on custodian custodian and then I'm I would say I'm on the phone with 911
1:25:10 I agree, you only use that term generally speaking if you work within the government and the agency. You're driving around in some car. Dispatch. Yeah, I got dispatch on the line. What did the cop say? Yeah, so he may be an ex-cop but we don't know this because we've never heard from this guy. What? Yeah, it could be an ex-cop, something like that. Well, we don't know. Victims in the building. How many? How many? Two down. She said two down, two down. It's like, okay. Is it safe? So nobody. Alright. I didn't see anybody go in there.
1:25:57 He's now telling him to call the state police? Why does he, I mean, I didn't hear anyone tell him to do that. He actually told him to call the state police a little earlier too. But why the state police? Well, I don't know. That's part of the protocol. Now, So that was... The temporary janitor's protocol? Yes, that's exactly... yes, yes, hello. Haven't you read the acting janitor for the day protocol book? Okay, so here's another part of interesting protocol. And by the way, this is the worst you'll hear on these tapes. That's the only shooting that's on any of these recordings. And there's one, we don't know who she was, was shot in the foot.
1:26:47 And this is her demeanor on the phone call. This is how upset she is by what has happened, by being shot in the foot. And the fact that the police calls into dispatch and just puts her on the phone is very strange to me. In town 9-1-1, what's the emergency? This is the state police. I got a victim. A victim from the shooter here. She's been shot once in the foot. She's been shot once in the foot? She's in room number one. Room number one? Yep. One shot in room number one. How close are you guys to arriving on scene? So this is the state police calling him. I've got one shot, you know, he's not freaking out. He's not like, oh there's 20 people dead, there's kids bleeding all over the place.
1:27:38 I got this lady. She shot in the foot here. How long till you guys like get over here? Okay, where are you are you okay right now? Okay, just put it on the phone She's with the state police?
1:28:21 What what I don't know if I'm safe my classroom door is not locked the state police is standing right next to her I'd be like yeah, I got a guy with a gun here. I got the police with me. I feel pretty safe Okay, is there anybody that can lock the classroom door without being safe? Okay, just try to stay where you are, okay? Okay, try to apply pressure, okay? Okay, we have people coming okay? All right Is there any other teacher with you in there or is just students? No, there's two other adults in the room with me. Okay, alright. Are they right next to you? Where are they in the room? No, they're over on the other side of the bookshelf. Okay. Alright, are you okay right now? For now, hopefully. Okay. I don't understand. There was like a madman running around shooting a hundred rounds in five minutes killing children and teachers left and right. Everyone's so calm.
1:29:20 So here's the reason I now I realize listening to this why MBS NBC and even Al Jazeera because it doesn't fit the story Doesn't fit the story and it's and they're boring. Yes, so you make him exciting by saying oh, it's so horrible Yes, exactly who listen to our show should think about this. Yeah talking to the mic They have been telling us that these tapes are so horrible that their journalistic consideration They had to expunge them. They couldn't play them because we... Because you're portending your ears out there. It's too upsetting. It's too upsetting. And so you play the tapes, which nobody apparently wants to do for the obvious reasons. They're boring, they're not upsetting, and they don't fit the scenario. And by the way, I do want to talk a little bit about the scenario and how... I have one more, one more, then I want to hear what you have to say. This, a little, a little thing from Andrea Mitchell.
1:30:18 who is talking to one of the so-called mothers of Sandy Hook, who of course, they don't want any of this publicity, we don't want it, we don't want any of this, please stay away from us, no 911 calls, but we'll be there on December 14th when we go against all the gun regulation, or go for the gun regulation. So Andrea Mitchell, and she says something very interesting here. I want to ask you about the reports from the investigating group on Adam Lanza's mother. And the fact that she was getting him another gun, that he was apparently such a mentally challenged child, young man, and that her way apparently, it's hard to tell because there are no survivors here from that family, but her way of reaching out to him was just...
1:31:01 I'm sorry, no survivors from that family? How about his dad? How about his so-called brother, Ryan Lanza? Oh yeah, I'm sorry, they're all on the same cruise ship with Edward Snowden's stripper girlfriend, who we also can't interview, and the acting head custodian. This is such an insult. Such an insult for Pete for someone like Rachel Madcow to say that she's a journalist and all this integrity when they're doing nothing because they're either in on it They're in on it and they are horrible horrible people. I don't know that they're in on it. Then they are just stupid There you go. I think you're finally getting it. It's really insulting John. There's no way she's in on it. I
