other is a story for you from are charlie cook as a clerk report it's a
national journal magazine adequate report is one of the most well-respected
uh... political of polling
uh... reports this crazy comes out with it
does he really is the status of the races
then in the congressional places including senators are the leading
republican on the strongly republic possibly democrat strongly democratic
center
and what's happening is that
uh... all do
races are leaning towards the democrats
and its
totally unbalance the there
well in an election in every election is about the democrats and
go out here but they're not doing as well they're uh... republic has might be
lee has some elections are you reported as an s but in this election other
problems they're getting hammered everywhere
uh... they're almost definitely going to lose in virginia mark warner will pick
up a seat for the democrat says john warner retires i'd almost certainly does
in new mexico value dole's going to pick up that senate seat
and then there are a lot of trouble in new hampshire
and in uh... organic andy
and kentucky
in north carolina
and the list goes on and on and the only democratic seeking any kind of jeopardy
phillips a show hold onto it but now this is a race there
is that the event recede in louisiana
at now that's a good story and interesting and of itself
at kolkata and concludes that the democrats are likely
to pick up a seven more senate seats
at six
which pickup
that's here
it's the views he would say
so
but but that is israel itself
but i wanted to also report on this because of that paragraph that precluded
the such as the sender so that the review but
tenor of the article in the national journalists like this very apologetic
for reporting this bad news for the republicans i give you this quote insist
soap even though i'm not a partisan analyst naturally desires to be balanced
in the year like this if i can place very little good news on the republican
side of the scale
but think about that person about this all start
your job is to report upholds
which it is
the political equivalent of the scores
why do you have to be balanced in reporting the score
that's absurd
and i've done this man algae before but it's perfect here
hits like uh... sports reporter saying hill esupport and non uh...
bias sports reporter strives to be balanced but i've got to say
the celtics won the championship
you know why
because the celtics won the championship
you don't need outside that you need to report the score
why do you need us to reporting with the pulsar
the pours out of all those it it looked like at this point the idiot ***
just look at it
smoking you see my point here
the these reporters scared to death somebody
anything negative about their problems even if it's in pyar ko even fair
society data or statistics importantly
so why do we strive to be balanced here
well you shouldn't what exactly should be trying to be balanced in reporting
that
you shouldn't say well the facts indicate that the democrats are going to
win
eleven thousand dollars a year by pretending the republicans might lead
sa valued essentially was that
that's a bias
because you by saying your quality
in an attempt to even things out when they are not
even
at i'm on a campaign here amato warcraft
political journalists need to be like more like sports journalist believe it
or not
i think that leading uh... advocate of sports journalism in america who has the
report and score
political journalists need to understand there's nothing wrong with that
and they don't apologize for
and i'm not apologized for it and i'll tell you right now at this point andrew
elections are so four months away andy can change at this point
republicans are looking to get their ask handed to
