I think the Democratic Party has to learn how to be a party of opposition.
— David Brock
There was a slow-motion swift boating of Hillary Clinton in '15.
All of these attacks on Secretary Clinton, at the end of the day, are character attacks.
I think the Republicans are trying to learn from their mistakes about attacks on women because the women's vote will backfire.
When I wrote the Anita Hill book I believed everything I wrote was accurate.
During the '90s the flow of misinformation was established.
I'm kind of a builder of institutions. I think I've got some ability to look at what's out here, look at a playing field, and identify gaps and niches.
The truth is that the more responsible the media outlet, the more responsive they are to constructive criticism.
Eventually the story would spill over into the regular media.
At the end of the day, I think Donald Trump will be the great unifier of the Democratic Party.
Donald Trump intimidated the press and bullied the press.
I don't think the candidate would be directly responsible for things that their supporters say, but when it gets to a certain level, they ought to say, 'Cut it out.'
I was a bad journalist.
I'm a former, living, breathing, right-wing conspirator.
Editors of conservative magazines aren't out trying to raise money. The money is there; the cash reserves are in the bank.
I'm an incredibly hard worker, I'm incredibly tenacious, and I'm incredibly detail-oriented.
Criticizing Fox News has nothing to do with criticizing the press. Fox News is not a news organization. It is the de facto leader of the GOP, and it is long past time that it is treated as such by the media, elected officials and the public.
I've been interested in watching the level of conservative misinformation that circulates through the media.
Once you apologize, then the press wants you to get down on your knees and say you're sorry. They are not appeasable.
Fox prefers to focus on people who are doing bad - especially if they're Democrats, or environmentalists.
Certainly going back to 2008 during the primary, Secretary Clinton was subjected to various forms of sexism - overt, subtle - that were detrimental. Fortunately, Senator Obama was not subjected to something similar; the culture seemed to tolerate sexism and not racism. We ought not tolerate either.
It's very important to understand that the 'Talk' piece was not an excerpt, it was an adaptation, which means I compressed different parts of the book and made a new piece.
The right can distort anything it wants.
There's every financial incentive in the world to stay in the conservative movement forever.
I didn't wake up one day and say, you know, 'Supply-side economics doesn't make sense.'
You get to a point where the factual adjudication doesn't matter because there are all these other outlets that are far less responsible, all talking about the ad, some of which have a political reason for promoting it.
It's all a sham: I have seen, and I know firsthand, indeed from my own pen, how the organized Right has sabotaged not only journalism but also democracy and truth.
