Speaker 1: It's nice Eye.
Speaker 2: Boston's news radio.
Speaker 1: So I'd like to talk a little bit about the
Speaker 1: presidential race. But before we do that, let me remind
Speaker 1: you that tomorrow night you'll be able to hear right
Speaker 1: here on WBZ beginning at eight thirty one of the
Speaker 1: only two debates, and I believe they're both just an
Speaker 1: hour long between the incumbent Democratic senator here in Massachusetts,
Speaker 1: Elizabeth Warren, and her Republican opponent, John Daton. Now, all
Speaker 1: the polls indicate that Warren is doing will be re elected.
Speaker 1: So John Deaton has a couple of chances, one Tomorrow
Speaker 1: night and one on Thursday night, to shake this race up.
Speaker 1: And it's going to be a big task. But I
Speaker 1: think that Deton is someone who understands that he has
Speaker 1: a hill to climb. So it's going to be interesting
Speaker 1: to listen tomorrow night. And when we begin at eight
Speaker 1: o'clock tomorrow night, we give you an opportunity to tell
Speaker 1: us what you think Deaton should do to make this
Speaker 1: race more competitive, or what does Elizabeth Warren do have
Speaker 1: to do in order to maintain the lead that she
Speaker 1: currently has. Then the debate runs from a thirty to
Speaker 1: nine thirty. John Keller of WBZ TV is the host
Speaker 1: of that debate, and then at nine thirty tomorrow night,
Speaker 1: you'll have an opportunity to join us and tell us
Speaker 1: what you think of the debate. It's interesting that even
Speaker 1: though Channel four is the host television station of this debate.
Speaker 1: As I listened to Channel four today, it sounds as
Speaker 1: if the debate is going to be either available streaming
Speaker 1: or on Channel thirty eight, which I think is interesting.
Speaker 1: I really think it's interesting, and I think it's almost
Speaker 1: add Now. I don't know what sort of obligations Channel
Speaker 1: four has to broadcast network television programs. I know that
Speaker 1: every week in the fall, the all of these three
Speaker 1: major networks ABC and CBS and NBC, I watch football
Speaker 1: games over the weekend, or hockey games, or basketball games,
Speaker 1: or Worlds or playoff games, and if it is a network,
Speaker 1: they're always showing you it's premiere week coming up on
Speaker 1: our network. I think they each have about five or
Speaker 1: six premiere weeks. In the old days, back when there
Speaker 1: were three major networks, you would have everyone would know
Speaker 1: what was the upcoming schedule for that fall, and you'd
Speaker 1: know that Bonanza was still going to be on at
Speaker 1: seven o'clock on Sunday night, or whatever your favorite word.
Speaker 1: It's just how the world has changed now. It's like
Speaker 1: they run stories, they run shows by you which look
Speaker 1: the same, sound the same, the titles are the same.
Speaker 1: Either are all real a lot of violence as much
Speaker 1: as they can get on television, or it's game shows
Speaker 1: or dancing, Dancing with the stars or whatever. Anyway, we'll
Speaker 1: we'll let that go. I just think it's interesting that
Speaker 1: Channel four would host the debate and they would not
Speaker 1: show it on their major outlet, which of course is WBCTV,
Speaker 1: and it's going to be broadcast as I understand. If
Speaker 1: I'm wrong there by the way, feel free to correct
Speaker 1: me those of you who may be following it more closely.
Speaker 1: I don't think I am, but if I am, they're
Speaker 1: going to show it on their affiliate, which is Channel
Speaker 1: thirty eight, which has always been considered, you know, Channel
Speaker 1: thirty eight has been considered sort of like the minor
Speaker 1: league affiliate of Channel four, put to put it in
Speaker 1: baseball terms. But whatever, that's that's something we could we
Speaker 1: could talk about also later on. But what I want
Speaker 1: to talk about is last week I talked about an
Speaker 1: interesting interview that have been on the CBS Morning Show
Speaker 1: between an author who basically was calling Israel in apartheid
Speaker 1: state in his book called the book is called the Message, uh,
Speaker 1: and the one of the morning show anchors of the
Speaker 1: CBS Morning News, Jeff Robbins, writes about this Tomorrow and
Speaker 1: the Boston Herald. So if you get a chance to
Speaker 1: read Jeff's column, I listen. I've read it today and
Speaker 1: it's as it usually is with Jeff Robins, frequent guest
Speaker 1: on this program, right on the money. But here's the thing.
Speaker 1: I was watching the morning news programs on Sunday and
Speaker 1: I watched this week on ABC and old friend and
Speaker 1: colleague Martha Raddits, who was a reporter here in Boston
Speaker 1: and was known as Martha Bradley at the time, but
Speaker 1: now Martha Raddits. It's been in ABC correspondent and I
Speaker 1: think does a great job on her assignments around the
Speaker 1: world and closer to and at home. But I thought
Speaker 1: she kind of got take it to the cleaner. Yesterday
Speaker 1: she was interviewing the Republican vice presidential candidate jd. Vance.
Speaker 1: And when you wear your politics on your sleeve and
Speaker 1: you're a network reporter, it's not a good look. It's
Speaker 1: not a good look because half of your audience out there,
Speaker 1: probably is you know, tends to vote Republican and half
Speaker 1: the audience tends to vote Democrat. And whatever your again,
Speaker 1: if you're ABC, NBCCBS, if you're Fox, you know you're
Speaker 1: gonna be Republican. If you see an ANN, you're gonna
Speaker 1: be Democrat. I get it. Okay. If you're a NBC,
Speaker 1: who God knows what you're gonna be, You're gonna be progressive,
Speaker 1: socialist or whatever. That's fine. But when Martha Radis was
Speaker 1: interviewing JD. Vance yesterday, she challenged Vance on some of
Speaker 1: the comments recent comments that Donald Trump had made about
Speaker 1: Venzwalen gangs which had come across the border illegally basically
Speaker 1: taking over apartment buildings in Aurora, Colorado, and this video
Speaker 1: of this activity. Okay, Now, I don't live in Aurora, Colorado.
Speaker 1: What happens in Aurora, Colorado doesn't really impact me. But
Speaker 1: the video is pretty clear. The video is pretty clear.
Speaker 1: So Rod Martha came at JD. Van's with a pretty
Speaker 1: strong question, okay, And the purpose of the question was
Speaker 1: for her to get Vance to denounce the comments, the
Speaker 1: statements that former President Trump had made. Now, if you
Speaker 1: want to get him to denounce the statements that former
Speaker 1: President Trump made about Haitians eating dogs in Ohio, in Springfield, Ohio,
Speaker 1: I'm with you one thousand percent those statements in the
Speaker 1: middle of the presidential debate on October I think it
Speaker 1: was was no, it was October first, Yeah, it was.
Speaker 1: It was wildly off base. There's I mean, he was
Speaker 1: picked off based on that one by about ten feet. Okay,
Speaker 1: but his comments about this video of these gun toting
Speaker 1: people going into apartment complexes in Aurora, calif Aurora, Colorado.
Speaker 1: So Martha Raddits went after Vance, and Vance handled it
Speaker 1: very well, and then Raddits decided, Martha Raddis decided to
Speaker 1: keep the pressure on, and it didn't. It didn't turn out,
Speaker 1: in my opinion, to be a good look for Martha Raddits.
Speaker 1: So let's listen to the exchange. This is a two
Speaker 1: minute exchange. It's Martha Raddits of ABC talking to Republican
Speaker 1: vice presially vincidential candidate JD. Vance, the Senator from Ohio,
Speaker 1: and she's very interruptive and the questions it's a loaded question,
Speaker 1: It's an absolute loaded question. Here's how it played yesterday,
Speaker 1: and if you didn't listen to it, listen to it
Speaker 1: carefully cut sixteen abron.
Speaker 3: But I want to We played some other comments about
Speaker 3: migrants migrants, including an Aurora in Colorado, where Trump said
Speaker 3: the city had been invaded and conquered by Venezuelan gangs.
Speaker 3: The Republican mayor of the city said flatly, the city
Speaker 3: and state have not been taken over or invaded or
Speaker 3: occupied by migrant gangs. So do you support Donald Trump
Speaker 3: making those claims that the Republican mayor says were grossly
Speaker 3: exaggerated and have hurt the city's identity and sense of safety.
Speaker 3: I understand what you're saying, that some people left behind,
Speaker 3: but he's making these statements that the mayor is flat
Speaker 3: out disputing.
Speaker 4: Well, Martha, you just said the mayor said they were
Speaker 4: exaggeratedly exaggerated. There's got to be some that means there's
Speaker 4: got to be some element of truth here. And of
Speaker 4: course President Trump was actually in Aurora, Colorado talking to
Speaker 4: people on the ground, and what we're hearing, of course, Martha,
Speaker 4: is that people are terrified by what has happened with
Speaker 4: some of these Venezuelan gangs.
Speaker 3: Center Evance. I'm going to stop you because I know
Speaker 3: exactly what happened. I'm going to stop you. The incidents
Speaker 3: were limited to a handful of apartment CONFLICTX apartment complexes,
Speaker 3: and the mayor said, our dedicated police officers have acted
Speaker 3: on those concerns a handful of problems.
Speaker 4: Only, Martha, do you hear yourself? Only a handful of
Speaker 4: apartment complexes in America were taken over by Venezuelan gangs.
Speaker 4: And Donald Trump is the problem and not Kamala Harris's
Speaker 4: open border. Americans are so fed up with what's going on,
Speaker 4: and they have every right to be. And I really
Speaker 4: find this exchange, Martha is sort of interesting because you
Speaker 4: seem to be more focused with nitpicking everything that Donald
Speaker 4: Trump has said rather than acknowledging that apartment complexes in
Speaker 4: the United States of a America are being taken over
Speaker 4: by violent gangs. I worry so much more about that
Speaker 4: problem than anything else here. We've got to get American
Speaker 4: communities in a safe space again.
Speaker 1: So I think, and I want to hear from you
Speaker 1: that Advance handled himself pretty well there, and the questions
Speaker 1: and the tone of the questions from radits she could
Speaker 1: have phrased the question I thought a lot more fairly,
Speaker 1: but I want to hear what you have to say.
Speaker 1: I have one more SoundBite where Radits continues to go
Speaker 1: after him on this, and it's almost as if what
Speaker 1: it says to me is that maybe maybe well, first
Speaker 1: of all, I think Martha is wearing her politics on
Speaker 1: her slave, which is a dumb thing for in inappropriate thing.
Speaker 1: You can't be emotional in those circumstances. You have to
Speaker 1: be as calm, cool and collect that as Jade Vance
Speaker 1: was in order to win that argument, in my opinion,
Speaker 1: So I want to know what you have to say
Speaker 1: and welcome back on to play. Where Martha then sort
Speaker 1: of that doubles down on Vance. And you know, you're
Speaker 1: interviewing a United States senator who's running for vice president
Speaker 1: of the United States. I think this way to interrupt
Speaker 1: the person without saying something like I'm going to stop
Speaker 1: you right there. I don't know where that license where
Speaker 1: Martha Raddits felt she had that license, I'm going to
Speaker 1: stop you right there. That displays a bias that to
Speaker 1: me is troubling. We've seen it with the David Muir interview,
Speaker 1: the the the debate between you know the debate if
Speaker 1: you will, between Trump and Harris, where Trump was just
Speaker 1: horrible but Mure also was horrible. Then you see it
Speaker 1: on the vice presidential debate with the CBS Ancor nor
Speaker 1: O'Donnell along with Margaret Brennan, who they fact check Vance
Speaker 1: but don't fact check. Uh Walls, I mean it's and
Speaker 1: turned Vance's microphone off. I mean this is this is
Speaker 1: now a mistake and that that the networks are making,
Speaker 1: and it's also going to help Trump advance in my opinion. Uh,
Speaker 1: and it'll backfire on both the Democrats and on and
Speaker 1: and and on the media. Harris is doing something interesting.
Speaker 1: She's gonna sit down with Brett Baar of Fox News.
Speaker 1: Bear will be We'll give her a tough interview. She
Speaker 1: may come out of that looking better if she handles
Speaker 1: it properly, if she's responsive to questions. I will bet
Speaker 1: you Bear will be much more respectful of Vice President
Speaker 1: Harris than Martha Radditts. Martha Radits was of JD. Vance.
Speaker 1: Let's take a break, Rob, I don't want to go
Speaker 1: too long here. When we come back, well we'll have
Speaker 1: Martha doubles down with JD. Vance.
Speaker 4: Now back to Dan Ray line from the Window World.
Speaker 1: Night Side Studios on w b Z to news radio. Okay,
Speaker 1: so we listened to the longer interchange between JD. Vance,
Speaker 1: the Republican nominee for Vice President, Martha Raddis of ABC,
Speaker 1: who's a friend of mine and who I very much
Speaker 1: respected as a colleague when she was working at Channel
Speaker 1: five and I was working at Channel four. But I
Speaker 1: think she kind of jumped the shark here and this
Speaker 1: is her trying this is Vance continuing his answer, and
Speaker 1: raddit's continuing to be tone deaf to the tone that
Speaker 1: she was striking with Senator Vance, and I think displaying
Speaker 1: well an attitude which is probably going to help fans
Speaker 1: rather than hurt him. Cut sixteen b Rob.
Speaker 4: And Unfortunately, when you let people in by the millions,
Speaker 4: most of whom are unvetted, most of whom you don't
Speaker 4: know who they really are, you're going to have problems
Speaker 4: like this. Kamala Harris ninety four executive orders that undid Donald.
Speaker 1: Trump's successful border policies.
Speaker 4: We knew this.
Speaker 1: Stuff would happen.
Speaker 4: Let's ragged about opening the border, and now we have
Speaker 4: the consequences and we're living with it. We can do
Speaker 4: so much better. But frankly, we're not going to do better,
Speaker 4: Martha unless Donald Trump calls this stuff out.
Speaker 1: I'm glad that he did.
Speaker 3: Okay, let's just end that with. They did not invade
Speaker 3: or take over the city, as Donald Trump said, I
Speaker 3: want to move.
Speaker 4: On to just a few apartment complexes, no big deal.
Speaker 3: A few apartment complexes that the mayor did not seems
Speaker 3: was invading the entire city.
Speaker 1: I mean, think about it. Think about it. If all
Speaker 1: of a sudden you had some right wing whack up
Speaker 1: whack jobs, wacker doodles, who all of a sudden decided
Speaker 1: they were going to go in and take over a
Speaker 1: few apartment complexes in Aurora, Colorado, wouldn't that bother you?
Speaker 1: I mean, it certainly would bother me, and it certainly
Speaker 1: would bother me if Ben's a will and street gangs,
Speaker 1: as the video shows, and as Martha radditts acknowledged. But
Speaker 1: it's Somehow is it important? What does it say about
Speaker 1: the country, What does it say about the border? Go
Speaker 1: to Mike and Beverly. Mike, get us going here on nightside.
Speaker 1: Go ahead, Mike, Okay, I got to turn that radio
Speaker 1: down and we'll put him on hold. Let me go
Speaker 1: to Bob in Randolph. Bob, you're going to start us
Speaker 1: off here on Nightside this hour.
Speaker 5: Go ahead, Bob, Hi Dan, I just want to say
Speaker 5: that I think Vance was spot on and what he said.
Speaker 5: We have to get our cities and towns that people
Speaker 5: feel safe, and the Lada issue is a huge issue
Speaker 5: in this country. That's just hard.
Speaker 1: Why do you why do you think Martha Raddits made
Speaker 1: those comments? Uh, you know that, Well, it was just
Speaker 1: a few apartment complexes.
Speaker 5: I mean, oh, it's it's just that left wing, that
Speaker 5: liberal thought process that they have. I don't understand where
Speaker 5: it comes from. It's far from where from where I
Speaker 5: think a lot of conservatives think. I mean, we've had
Speaker 5: such a great country over a period of long years,
Speaker 5: and then all of a sudden it's becoming unraveled. Well,
Speaker 5: there isn't much we can do about it.
Speaker 1: I think Martha Rattis is really smart, bright woman, who's
Speaker 1: a who's a good reporter. I've watched her or I
Speaker 1: tend to watch ABC at night, to be honest with you,
Speaker 1: in the newscast more than I do the other three,
Speaker 1: although I do switch around. And I just think that
Speaker 1: she obviously wanted theance she was She was looking for
Speaker 1: the SoundBite, That's what she was doing. She was looking
Speaker 1: for Vance to say, I think Trump was wrong on
Speaker 1: that talk about Springfield, Ohio. If you want where, I
Speaker 1: think Trump jumped the shark. And someone had said to
Speaker 1: him before the debate, eating cats and dogs in Springfield, Ohio,
Speaker 1: and Trump you just went with it, and and I
Speaker 1: think ruined his debate performance. It wasn't a particularly good
Speaker 1: performance in his in his first and only debate with
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris. I don't know if you if you see
Speaker 1: it that way, but I just thought, what is he
Speaker 1: talking about?
Speaker 5: And well, I feel he's his own worst enemy many
Speaker 5: many times.
Speaker 1: If Martha Raddis had gone after Vance on that and said,
Speaker 1: you know, can you defend in any way, shape or
Speaker 1: form the allegations that were made in October first by
Speaker 1: the by the former president, which have been disputed by
Speaker 1: the Republican governor. Where I've seen no videotape of anything.
Speaker 1: It was like something made up out of whole cloth.
Speaker 1: There is video tape of these these evens, whiling guys
Speaker 1: with guns walking up the staircases of these apartment complexes,
Speaker 1: and and and she acknowledged it, and that's why Vince
Speaker 1: said to her, just think of your question. What you
Speaker 1: just said. Well, it's only a few complex it's only
Speaker 1: a few apartment complexes. I mean.
Speaker 5: If the plasma is a lot bigger than a few complexes,
Speaker 5: believe me, the problem in this country is far above
Speaker 5: what they're showing it really is, and nobody is addressing it. Okay.
Speaker 1: Well, I mean even in the city.
Speaker 5: They got a city of Boston, our great city of Boston. Okay,
Speaker 5: We're shot four hundred officers, okay, and nobody addresses it.
Speaker 5: Put we need four hundred more policemen on the streets,
Speaker 5: okay to help us, and nobody is doing anything about it.
Speaker 5: It's frustrating.
Speaker 1: You're correct on that. I will tell you I've had
Speaker 1: Larry Calderon on the program on several occasions over the
Speaker 1: last couple of years talking about that problem specifically, and
Speaker 1: it is a problem. It is clearly a problem. There's
Speaker 1: no question about what you say. But what I'm saying
Speaker 1: is there's no video evidence this this. I haven't seen
Speaker 1: one person who's been interviewed, and I'm sure Fox went
Speaker 1: out there to find the people who said I saw
Speaker 1: my dog being dragged down the street. There was nothing
Speaker 1: of that, nothing of that, and it was probably yeah,
Speaker 1: it was probably a rumor. And and former President Trump,
Speaker 1: oh that's a good room to jump. Well, big mistake, President,
Speaker 1: and that absolutely I think heard him for a couple
Speaker 1: of weeks badly and it might eventually hurt him on
Speaker 1: November fifth.
Speaker 5: But I just think I think he doesn't listen to anybody.
Speaker 1: No question about that. There's no question about that. But JD.
Speaker 1: Vance came across, in my opinion, as a pretty cool customer,
Speaker 1: and he made sure ratits radits look pretty silly. And
Speaker 1: it was all for Martha. Ratisy was a self inflicted wound.
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, to say, well, it's only a
Speaker 1: few of only a few apartment complexes games.
Speaker 5: We'll say very soon what the result is. And thank
Speaker 5: you so much for listening.
Speaker 1: You're welcome. Appreciate you call Bob, Thank you very much. Okay,
Speaker 1: let me see if I should get one war in here.
Speaker 1: If I can before the break, I'm gonna try it.
Speaker 1: It's added. You know what, I'm not going to short
Speaker 1: change Eddin Wooster and I'm not going to change short
Speaker 1: change Larry. And here's what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: invite You've heard what I've talked about. Many of you
Speaker 1: probably saw this interview over the weekend on ABC. If
Speaker 1: you think I'm wrong, bring it on. If you think
Speaker 1: I'm right, feel free either way. Six one seven, two, five,
Speaker 1: four ten thirty or six one seven, nine three one
Speaker 1: ten thirty. If you wait until the end of the
Speaker 1: hour to call, you're not going to get in the air.
Speaker 1: It's as simple as that, because I'm not gonna rune people. Uh.
Speaker 1: In order to accommodate people, UH. For some reason, my
Speaker 1: audience tends to wait until I think everybody wants to
Speaker 1: get the last word. We're going to stop playing that
Speaker 1: game beginning tonight. Six one seven, two, five, four ten thirty.
Speaker 1: Six one seven, nine three one ten thirty. I want
Speaker 1: to talk about it, as they say. I respect Martha.
Speaker 1: She's a good reporter. She was a great reporter at
Speaker 1: Channel five. She went to the network. But I think
Speaker 1: she got a little out over her skis if you
Speaker 1: will with jd Vance and he was able to pick
Speaker 1: up on it very quickly, very pretty good debater. He said,
Speaker 1: think about what you just said. You know only a
Speaker 1: few a few apartment complexes. Six one seven two five, four,
Speaker 1: ten thirty six, one seven, nine, three, one ten thirty
Speaker 1: Hit comes the news at the bottom of the hour.
Speaker 1: We'll be right back.
Speaker 4: You're on Night Side with Dan Ray on WBZ, Boston's
Speaker 4: news radio.
Speaker 1: Those pesky panthers. Let me go to Ed and Worcester. Ed.
Speaker 1: You are next on night Side.
Speaker 2: Welcome again. I just want to offer this. I think
Speaker 2: the origin story of that cats and dogs thing came
Speaker 2: from a Springfield City council meeting before the presidential debate
Speaker 2: in September, where there were two residents. One of them
Speaker 2: was an African American gentleman who stood up and said,
Speaker 2: they're cutting the heads off of ducks. I heard that
Speaker 2: on two different radio shows, and then I went online
Speaker 2: and saw it video of it. And then there was
Speaker 2: a woman also at that same city council meeting, and
Speaker 2: she stood up and said. I don't think she said
Speaker 2: they're eating cats and dogs, but I think she said
Speaker 2: something like I'm afraid to let my cat outside or something.
Speaker 2: And I would have no doubt. That's hard to find today,
Speaker 2: but I do. I did get online and see that,
Speaker 2: and I didn't hear it.
Speaker 1: On the radio. How does that then, Let's assume that
Speaker 1: that's accurate, because you're you're a good car responded here.
Speaker 1: How does that then end up in Donald Trump's mind
Speaker 1: so that he brings it up during a presidential debate,
Speaker 1: the only the presidential debate that he has with Vice
Speaker 1: President Harris. I mean there's for somebody to stand up
Speaker 1: and say, hey, I think I saw them cut their
Speaker 1: head off a doc or whatever. I mean, okay, fine,
Speaker 1: and then someone says she's afraid to Does that really
Speaker 1: rise to the level that Donald Trump had any right
Speaker 1: to even bring that up? There was?
Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, you know, like like like everybody else I've
Speaker 2: ever known who's a really gifted salesman as Donald Trump is,
Speaker 2: he just can't shut that function off in his mind,
Speaker 2: Like everything gets exaggerated and overstated.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but but you know, you got to have some discipline.
Speaker 1: You gotta have some discipline. And but but let's move
Speaker 1: on to tonight. What we're talking about tonight. I thought
Speaker 1: Martha Ratis was way out of line yesterday.
Speaker 2: Well, I actually have to disagree with you about that.
Speaker 2: Remember years ago, Mike Dukakis was being he was on
Speaker 2: c SPAN, and I think he used to teach out
Speaker 2: at Pepperdine or somewhere and he was giving a talk
Speaker 2: and somebody got up and asked him a question about
Speaker 2: the Sunday morning shows. And this was i'd say at
Speaker 2: least fifteen years ago. And he said, I don't watch
Speaker 2: those shows, and I don't think you should watch them either,
Speaker 2: And I thought, hey, you know, for once, Mike Ducaccas
Speaker 2: and I agree about something. I think what Martha Raddis
Speaker 2: was doing, and I think this is the purpose, especially
Speaker 2: of those Sunday morning shows, but to somewhat of network,
Speaker 2: you know, news at the in the evening too. It's
Speaker 2: basically to tell you if you want to be accepted
Speaker 2: by the American elite or the American establishment, if you
Speaker 2: want to be one of them or be you know,
Speaker 2: listen to by them. This these are the boundaries in
Speaker 2: which you have to confine what you say. And I
Speaker 2: think what Martha Rattis was doing, and I think I
Speaker 2: might have said this on your show a few weeks
Speaker 2: ago about the Boston Globe. She basically was talking like
Speaker 2: the Lady of Lamance would talk to a disobedient or
Speaker 2: negligent servant, to her chauffeur or her gardener, like this
Speaker 2: is what you did wrong, and you need to see
Speaker 2: that you did something wrong. Yeah, I'm trying to think
Speaker 2: she knew exactly what she was doing.
Speaker 1: Well, but what I'm saying is, then if let's assume
Speaker 1: if she wanted to go after Vance, go after Vance
Speaker 1: on the Springfield, Ohio story. Don't go after him on
Speaker 1: the Aurora, Colorado story. Because there's videotaped evidence of these
Speaker 1: gangs inside an apartment complex which everyone has seen. And
Speaker 1: she herself said, well, it was just a few apartment
Speaker 1: complexes or some apartment complexes, which is an admission against interest.
Speaker 1: You were both lawyers. It's an admission against interest that
Speaker 1: you'd never make in court. I mean, you never bring
Speaker 1: that subject up because you know that across the examination
Speaker 1: it's gonna be stuff down your throat. And Vance picked
Speaker 1: up on it quickly and said, think of what you
Speaker 1: just said. It's only several apartment complexes.
Speaker 2: I mean, but she sees herself not as a journalist
Speaker 2: but as an advocate. She doesn't see herself as a journalist.
Speaker 6: Well, she should start doing a talk show. She should
Speaker 6: start doing a talk show or writing a column for
Speaker 6: you know, for for newspapers or something. I mean, that's
Speaker 6: that though, you know, when you think about those morning
Speaker 6: talk shows.
Speaker 1: Uh, you know you had you had some I mean
Speaker 1: Tim Russett never would have done that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but he's long the ceased.
Speaker 1: No, I understand that. But but but you know, I
Speaker 1: don't think Mike Wallace. Mike Wallace never would have started
Speaker 1: down that path. Mike Wallace would be smart enough to say,
Speaker 1: I'm not going down that path because it's gonna he's
Speaker 1: gonna throw back at me that that factually there are
Speaker 1: go down the dog and cat path because there's no
Speaker 1: defense to what he said. Anyway, Hey, I love your
Speaker 1: calls as always, you know that.
Speaker 2: Okay, Okay, great, thanks.
Speaker 1: Thanks, doc to you later. Okay, let's go to Laurie
Speaker 1: my pell. Laurie, Laurie, how are you? How's everything? A
Speaker 1: night on a little chili out there other night?
Speaker 7: It's a little chilly, Yep, it's probably the worms. That's
Speaker 7: going to be today for a while because we're running
Speaker 7: back down and apparently next week it'll be fifties during
Speaker 7: the day and that's probably the last of the worms
Speaker 7: we're getting. But did you see the lights the other night?
Speaker 1: I went up to try to see them at midnight
Speaker 1: and I was told over the weekend by a friend
Speaker 1: of mine that you couldn't see them where we were
Speaker 1: from the naked eye. You had to take care, you had.
Speaker 7: To takeke your camera, take your phone, which I did.
Speaker 1: Didn't know that looking and I'm thinking, now there must
Speaker 1: be a cloud cover or something. I wish, you know,
Speaker 1: But it's like it was like, take your camera and
Speaker 1: take a picture of a black sky, a night sky,
Speaker 1: and you'll see the beautiful.
Speaker 7: Lights right well, and you don't even have to take
Speaker 7: the picture if you open the camera and hold. We
Speaker 7: had amazing ones in September, and I didn't know that
Speaker 7: people came.
Speaker 8: Out with these.
Speaker 7: They had fantastic ones in September. These weree it's good.
Speaker 7: But if you just open the camera and look up,
Speaker 7: because I you know, I was like, it looks like
Speaker 7: nothing the camera.
Speaker 1: I learned something. Next time. Next time, Laurie, I'm going
Speaker 1: to be hit with the camera because it was amazing.
Speaker 5: Anyway, I'm far.
Speaker 1: Away from the big city here, I'm not I'm not
Speaker 1: worried about the city lights.
Speaker 7: Yeah, now you would have you would have the camera
Speaker 7: would have shown you. And like I said, you don't
Speaker 7: even have to take the picture.
Speaker 2: You just look at it.
Speaker 7: You just I mean job definitely.
Speaker 1: Would have taken the picture because I would have said, hey,
Speaker 1: this is quite a picture that I So tell me
Speaker 1: about Martha Raddis. I think she was out over her
Speaker 1: skis last yesterday.
Speaker 2: I do.
Speaker 7: And you know, it's funny when you said, because I
Speaker 7: remember seeing her in abc year she was in the
Speaker 7: Middle East, So I think something during one of those
Speaker 7: courts are of her first born correspondent things, and I
Speaker 7: recognized the face, and I didn't recognize the last name.
Speaker 7: And then tonight you said she'd been with boss and
Speaker 7: I'm like, oh, that's it. So I you know, I
Speaker 7: have two thoughts on this. One is I think some
Speaker 7: of these I don't know if it's the estrogen sisterhood
Speaker 7: or what. I think some of these females in the
Speaker 7: news are just so excited that there's a woman running
Speaker 7: for president that they just can't get over themselves. I
Speaker 7: don't know. But I also think JD is one of
Speaker 7: the youngest people who's been out there in a national
Speaker 7: race in a very long time, and I think that
Speaker 7: they are just so arrogant they think they can crush him.
Speaker 7: And I don't think he's crushable.
Speaker 1: Good luck, it's pretty smart dude, let me tell you
Speaker 1: that they teach you pretty well at Yale Law School.
Speaker 1: He just nailed it. I mean he nailed it. He
Speaker 1: was awesome to think of what you're saying, you.
Speaker 7: Apartment building or what if you live in that apartment building?
Speaker 1: Yeah right, Well, you know, I'm sure knowing that Martha
Speaker 1: Radits knows lives in that apartment probably know one Martha
Speaker 1: Raddis knows lives in apartment building like that, Yes, saying
Speaker 1: the apartment building. They're all probably engated communities, but they're
Speaker 1: not worried.
Speaker 7: About your words.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, I'm telling you that's what I believe.
Speaker 7: Yeah, but the arrogance was ridiculous, and just that all
Speaker 7: these people don't really count. It's like it's a good
Speaker 7: thing you're not Kamala Harry saying it is because those
Speaker 7: people would not be voting for.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, Oh my god.
Speaker 7: I just I think I think they think he's young
Speaker 7: enough that they can just you know, get him flustered,
Speaker 7: and I don't think he's flusterable.
Speaker 1: I couldn't agree with it more. Laura. I love your
Speaker 1: calls and thanks for the tip. Okay, I will know
Speaker 1: what to do next time. Get that camera out. Talk
Speaker 1: to you soon, Thanks, Laurie. I love it all right,
Speaker 1: keep rolling here, everybody called in early. We'll give everybody
Speaker 1: a pretty fair shot here, as we always try to do.
Speaker 1: It's tough to give him fair shots that late in
Speaker 1: the show. Matt's and Foxborough. Hey, Matt, welcome next to
Speaker 1: on NIGHTSID. How are you? Oh, I'm doing okay, don't
Speaker 1: knock yourself off the air, go ahead. I just want
Speaker 1: to talk about Matha Rabbits.
Speaker 9: How I know she was a friend of us. I
Speaker 9: guess she was saying, but.
Speaker 1: I think she's probably not happy with what I'm saying tonight.
Speaker 1: But but I mean that that he she she got
Speaker 1: into a debate with a guy who was a little
Speaker 1: quicker than she was. It was like, you know, you're
Speaker 1: a Western gunslinger and you think you're the fastest gun
Speaker 1: in the in the in the corral.
Speaker 9: Well yeah, I mean, out of the four between the
Speaker 9: two running for president and vice president, he's definitely the
Speaker 9: best debate out.
Speaker 5: Of the four of them.
Speaker 1: And sharp knife of the toolbox, absolutely yeah.
Speaker 2: And uh in Martha Radits in twenty sixteen, she cried
Speaker 2: on the air after Donald Trump won and I always.
Speaker 1: Forgot about that. Oh I do remember that. Yeah, she
Speaker 1: was a little teary eyed.
Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I just that always just stuck with me.
Speaker 5: That that was.
Speaker 2: I'm like, you're a journalist, you're spoke compol her and
Speaker 2: that stuff.
Speaker 1: Well yeah, and I mean you're supposed to maintain a
Speaker 1: monoicum of again as an on ear journalist. She's not
Speaker 1: a commentator. She's a reporter still and asked tough questions.
Speaker 1: That's fine, Like like the CBS Morning reporter asked of
Speaker 1: the guy who was calling Israel in apartheid state. But
Speaker 1: it was very friendly in the way in which Da
Speaker 1: Coppo asked those questions. Challenging questions, but he asked him.
Speaker 1: You know, it's it's It was tough for me to
Speaker 1: watch because I like Martha. She's a friend, and I'm
Speaker 1: sure she will defend herself and if she wants to
Speaker 1: come on the show tomorrow night and defend herself, we
Speaker 1: have mutual friends. Uh, she's more than welcome. Yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: not happy to criticize a friend. But I got to
Speaker 1: tell you, it's a presidential race. There's there's a lot
Speaker 1: on the table here. And I criticized Donald Trump when
Speaker 1: he did the Dogs and cats thing in spring Field, Ohio.
Speaker 1: And it didn't take me two days, didn't take me
Speaker 1: two hours, it didn't take me two minutes. I criticized
Speaker 1: him as soon as that debate was over. You did
Speaker 1: you did?
Speaker 2: I listened to that, And that's one of the things I.
Speaker 9: Love about Donald Trump is he will say absolutely anything
Speaker 9: that's on his mind.
Speaker 2: And it is one of the things they hate about
Speaker 2: Donald Trump is.
Speaker 9: He will say absolutely anything that's on his mind.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I think, as I think as president of
Speaker 1: the United States, you can't. You have to be somewhat
Speaker 1: cautious because if he's elected president, which he well might be,
Speaker 1: and he says something that could cause an international dispute
Speaker 1: or something, you gotta be careful. He gotta be careful.
Speaker 1: And I was hoping that he might have learned from
Speaker 1: his mistakes in his first four years, but I'm not
Speaker 1: sure he has. I'm not sure he has.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, probably right, all right.
Speaker 1: My friend is always Matt keep calling the show. I
Speaker 1: appreciate it.
Speaker 2: Well, Dan, you have a good night.
Speaker 1: Thank you. It's good talking. Thanks right back at you. Okay,
Speaker 1: we have a quick break. I got Ron, Patrick and
Speaker 1: Glenn are going to get everyone in. I promise coming
Speaker 1: right back on Nightside. You guys have respected my show.
Speaker 1: I'll get you each a couple of two and a
Speaker 1: half minutes at least. Okay, back on Nightside. Now, back
Speaker 1: to Dan Ray live from the window World Nightside Studios.
Speaker 1: I'm WBZ News Radio. Okay, let's keep rolling here, Patrick
Speaker 1: and Charlestown. Patrick. I got three others, but go right ahead, sir.
Speaker 10: Hey, how are you doing?
Speaker 1: Dare great? Go right ahead?
Speaker 10: So Hey, just a couple of things. I hate to
Speaker 10: bring up the dogs and cats again, but I'm going
Speaker 10: to do it to defend President Trump. First off, the
Speaker 10: first thing is I wanted to say is that he
Speaker 10: listens to the poor. That's the first thing. People on
Speaker 10: the ground, people that people who are news reporters who
Speaker 10: live in green leafy sub suburbs don't want to talk to,
Speaker 10: you know, like the working class of Dorchester and Charlestown
Speaker 10: in South Boston forty years ago, those type of disgusting
Speaker 10: people to the news media. Donald Trump sits down and
Speaker 10: he looks him in the eye, and he listens to them,
Speaker 10: and he doesn't judge them. That's the first thing. And
Speaker 10: he heard these complaints from real American people. Second, off.
Speaker 10: If I were to investigate this, and you're one of
Speaker 10: the greatest reports of the last generation, I think you're
Speaker 10: getting a little cushy in your old age. With all
Speaker 10: due respect, but you are one of the greatest reporters
Speaker 10: from the last generation. If I were to investigate this,
Speaker 10: I would first go to Springfield, Ohio, and I would
Speaker 10: follow up each and every lead till it's conclusion and
Speaker 10: rule it out before I formed an opinion. Did you
Speaker 10: go to Springfield, Ohio? How many people did you speak
Speaker 10: to and did you follow up each and every lead
Speaker 10: and rule them out before you?
Speaker 1: Are you asking that if Donald Trump? Patrick's you well,
Speaker 1: first of all, Patrick, you know what you're asking me
Speaker 1: to do is to is to do something this impossible.
Speaker 1: I'm a talk I do the show five nights a
Speaker 1: week here in New England. I don't have the ability
Speaker 1: to say. I wish that I did have the ability
Speaker 1: and say to my bosses, I'm going to go to Springfield.
Speaker 1: O'hiwe Here's the thing. I have yet to see a
Speaker 1: report on any of the networks, and specifically on Fox,
Speaker 1: which is obviously favorable towards Donald Trump, which says we
Speaker 1: went to Springfield, Come on, Are you serious?
Speaker 10: Watch?
Speaker 1: Do you do you listen to any of those people?
Speaker 1: Do you listen? I watched on Fox. I watched the
Speaker 1: Morning Show on Fox with Brett Bear, with Steve Doocy,
Speaker 1: with Lawrence Jones and Angeley and Angeley whatever the Hecker
Speaker 1: last name is Angeley Earhart. I believe, uh, they are
Speaker 1: all pro pro Trump. Nothing wrong with that. But there
Speaker 1: you're telling me that you don't think they're pro Trump.
Speaker 10: I don't watch that. I don't watch that show. I
Speaker 10: used to watch the Night Stuff when Tacko was around.
Speaker 1: But watch What's the Morning Show? Give me a call
Speaker 1: back later this week to tell me where you think
Speaker 1: they stand. All right?
Speaker 10: So I just want just one thing. So I just
Speaker 10: want you to admit that that's your opinion and it's
Speaker 10: not based on fact.
Speaker 1: It is my opinion. And I have not seen one
Speaker 1: report from I haven't seen a report from the Trump campaign.
Speaker 1: I haven't seen a report from any Wall Street journal.
Speaker 1: I haven't seen a report from the New York Post.
Speaker 1: Is the New York Post favorable to Trump? Patrick? In
Speaker 1: your opinion?
Speaker 8: I think it is.
Speaker 10: Yeah, I think it is.
Speaker 1: Send me a page out of the New York Post,
Speaker 1: the story out of the New York Post, which backs
Speaker 1: up what he had to say.
Speaker 10: Come on, but you cited you cited the city manager,
Speaker 10: at the mayor and the governor, all saying there were
Speaker 10: no complaints, all of whom are running government agencies in
Speaker 10: that state and who are responsible for being credited with
Speaker 10: running a good, safe government, and so their opinions had evidence.
Speaker 8: No.
Speaker 1: I took the lack of information that the Trump campaign.
Speaker 1: If the Trump campaign had the evidence. If the Trump
Speaker 1: campaign had the proof, they would have produced it by now.
Speaker 1: But they still have an opportunity. Patrick, I got to
Speaker 1: keep rolling here. I got three others.
Speaker 10: Thank you very much.
Speaker 1: Chris of the Cape. Chris, You're next on nights, I
Speaker 1: go right ahead.
Speaker 7: Good evening, Dan.
Speaker 11: On the Martha rat on the Martha Ratts interview of
Speaker 11: Vance without dignifying anybody at the top of the ticket,
Speaker 11: including all four h left, right, no middle. As a
Speaker 11: Kennedy Democrat, I am disappointed with what the offerings are.
Speaker 11: But that said, Matt sort of stole my thunder when
Speaker 11: he said that I'll never forget it. On the evening
Speaker 11: of Hillary Clinton's loss, she was inconsolable in utter tears,
Speaker 11: and as a journalist supposedly independent, or at least ostensibly so.
Speaker 11: She was transparently pointed, and it seemed that the cut
Speaker 11: of the interview that you aired tonight was so transparently biased,
Speaker 11: and she got eaten up by a much smarter, much
Speaker 11: more composed, much more deliberating individual than she could possibly offer.
Speaker 11: I mean, she really needs to check herself out in
Speaker 11: terms of her projection. And I think that that interview
Speaker 11: in and of itself showed such unprofessionalism that I mean,
Speaker 11: he could have come back, as a previous caller said,
Speaker 11: and said, how would you like to live in that
Speaker 11: apartment complex?
Speaker 2: Or competing?
Speaker 1: We didn't want to make it personal. He didn't need
Speaker 1: to make it personal. He wanted the debate by saying,
Speaker 1: just listen to the words you said. That's what He
Speaker 1: didn't have to go there. He didn't have to go.
Speaker 1: He could have if he wanted to. You're right, hey, Chris,
Speaker 1: I got to keep rolling.
Speaker 8: Here, all right.
Speaker 1: I want to be here to everybody. Thank you for
Speaker 1: the clone. Thank you very much. Ron Is in Weymouth, Ron,
Speaker 1: go ahead, we're getting tight here, go ahead, run.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I know you tell you.
Speaker 8: Yeah.
Speaker 9: Martha Raddits, I think she makes a better salesperson, uh
Speaker 9: than a journalist, because she all she wanted to do was, uh,
Speaker 9: you know, control the situation. This is a parent and
Speaker 9: say that she's right, she's right, she's right. But he
Speaker 9: wouldn't let her go. And because jd. Vance is a
Speaker 9: researcher like I am, he knew the answer. Unfortunately, Thomas
Speaker 9: Donald Trump is not a researcher, and not for two
Speaker 9: days after he says something. So but as fowers are
Speaker 9: really quickly here. As far as the the thing about
Speaker 9: the cats and dogs, uh, he he was right about that.
Speaker 9: It was geese and that was that was uh. In
Speaker 9: the in the police report, I heard.
Speaker 1: How many how many gates? How many geese run?
Speaker 9: I think they had? They had four geese.
Speaker 1: Had Yeah, and that became I think the national president.
Speaker 9: So I think just saying that would hurt Trump. I
Speaker 9: don't believe it. I think that was a wash because
Speaker 9: he was half right.
Speaker 1: Okay, fairing, half fair enough. Let it go, Ronnie. Want
Speaker 1: to get one more in real quickly here?
Speaker 9: Okay, yeah, I appreciate that too, And I'm listening. I
Speaker 9: want to hear some more here.
Speaker 5: I wish I could.
Speaker 1: We're not gonna hear much more because we only got
Speaker 1: about forty seconds left in the show. We'll up age.
Speaker 1: Thanks Ron. Okay, all right, Glenn, Glenn, I'm sorry man,
Speaker 1: you're the latest call of the night. I can give
Speaker 1: you about thirty seconds and that's it.
Speaker 8: Go well, yeah, Martha rad It reminds me of you
Speaker 8: mentioned Gunslinger. She reminds me of Irving, the one hundred
Speaker 8: and forty second fastest gun in the West. That was
Speaker 8: a frank callup comedy.
Speaker 1: All right, I appreciate it. Thanks Minch, Thanks much. Call
Speaker 1: later this week. I owe you some time. We're done
Speaker 1: for the night, Rob Brooks, great job, Mariita, thank you
Speaker 1: very much. I want to thank all the callers, and
Speaker 1: you guys were much better tonight getting in here a
Speaker 1: little earlier. That's great. I'll end us always. All dogs,
Speaker 1: all cats, all pets go to heaven. That's why Pelle
Speaker 1: Charlie Rays, who passed fourteen years ago in February, that's
Speaker 1: what all your pa, That's our past. They loved you,
Speaker 1: you loved them. I do believe to see again. Have
Speaker 1: a great Tuesday, everyone, and happy birthday to my mom,
Speaker 1: who would have been one hundred and fourteen years today.
Speaker 1: She's in heaven and she's watching us. Thanks everybody,
