Very good interview about the situation of journalism today. It's important to listen to people like this, who have lived through these changes from print to online.
IKR!!! was thinkin' the same. i mean, his wisdom in experience ALONE is just too expansive to be swatted with only a few questions, AND he's with cbs, for fuck's sake! both of these men are capable of diving into the deep end of politics, and it's a shame that they spashed around the shore. the book should've been given ample time for this first part, then a commercial break, then the really juicy stuff. very disappointing.
James Rice Sorry but we have eyes and ears that can read his tweets and see his comments. Only the koolaid drinkers can't believe their lying eyes and ears
What was the point of the "calm before the storm" remark? You keep that to yourself. Comment on the photo in 20 years, maybe. He can't play ANYTHING close to his chest. I am surprised that he doesn't pinch his weiner and dance around when he needs to go potty. He's a child. A "fucking moron".
To be honest, an average homeless man benefits society way more than Trump! At least the homeless man is not scamming people of their life savings, laundering money for criminal enterprises like the Russian and Italian mafias, or bribing judges and politicians so that he can steal from the government and the poor people by chasing them off their homes so that he could build fancy hotels over them!
The idea that rural and central USA are out of touch because they don't have newspapers anymore is difficult to swallow. If Facebook can be accessed, then news can be accessed. Something other than FOX News and Alex Jones can be accessed. The problem is not method of media delivery. The problem is gullibility, lack of respect for knowledge, and an arrogant unwillingness to learn. The problem is also fear.
Beth S yeah, but also the Internet and sites like Facebook and Google tailor to you personally creating narrow minded views and helps make people ignorant. So for example if someone only ever read and looked at liberal articles online, then eventually they'll only see liberal articles. The same with if someone only ever read and looked at conservative articles. The Internet and internet sites use formulas based on what you view the most because it thinks that's what you want to see so the Internet in itself is creating narrow mindedness in a lot of people in America and spreading ignorance. And, unfortunately, many people really like easily digestible information that agrees with them and they don't take the time to see other viewpoints that could make them think differently. Unfortunately, the Internet has become a huge double edged sword
- The best president - The greatest president you have ever seen. A tremendous president. - You've never seen a president like this, believe me - Because I know presidents, I am good at that - Nobody knew being a president could be this complicated, people don't know that - I like winners not losers, I like presidents who can preside - And there are no truly bad presidents, just voters on many sides, many sides - And not all presidents are bad, some I assume are good presidents - I've spoken to people who know presidents, and they agree with me - We're working on the perfect president, we're working on it - I have a plan for a great president, which I'll share with you later - This is a president surrounded by voters, big voters, human voters - Presidents are easy, you just grab them by the ###### - And for those who don't agree with me, you're FAKE presidents! - Bing bing bong, BIGLEE!!!
There's a huge difference between being "broken" and having the training and experience to know what to say and when. He's a legend in the industry and all those years of experience must come with knowledge of how to approach a question so your words aren't misconstrued.
Not sure whether YT's eating my replies so forgive me if this is one of three. But to clarify: I was referring to him knowing how to make sure 'HIS' words weren't misconstrued, not yours. Never assumed you were dissing anyone, just giving my take on what I saw. Again, if this turns out to be one of multiple replies, I apologize. YT's not showing the comment after I post it. Take care :)
Democracy Now has interesting interviews & digs deep, as well Al Jazeera tends to cover US news with less inflamed propaganda. An unbiased sweep of detailed reporting is always a better way to create a balanced perspective that includes mainstream media: Wall Street Journal, MSNBC, BBC, RT, CBC, Fox & CNN. As well it's helpful to read commentary of each audience base to understand the mindset of many around the globe.
Fox isn't news, it's straight-up GOP propaganda (and they admitted as much while Ailes was in charge)...I'd look at Breitbart or Drudge before I'd go near Fox. Also...Al Jazeera is great for anything that isn't critical of Qatar (so, you won't hear anything about the 2022 World Cup preparations there), just as RT is fine for anything that doesn't make Russia look bad.
Nothing good will come out of regulating the internet. If you knew anything about how the Big Six multimedia conglomerations, of what CBS, is a part of, which control 90% of all the media in the USA, you would know that they are very much in bed with government. If you wanted filtered news, go ahead and watch CBS/NBC/FOX/WHATEVER. But if you want FREE INFORMATION, then use the internet! Keep internet free! Do not allow the government to use the 2016 election as an excuse to DESTROY THE INTERNET.
There has been nothing more glorious than watching the MSM/liberals completely lose their sh!t over Trump winning the election. For that reason alone I'll be voting for him again in 2020.
Could just catch a glimpse of Bob’s socks, but on top of everything else he’s done also I wanted to say, “Bob, keep it up, and I love the purple socks”.
OMG! When Bob Schieffer walked out and jumped up on the stage like he was a 35 year old I said WOW! did he really look good. He has to be working out in the gym.
Trump and Weinstein are two crooks of the same coin! Both are cut from the same cloth and easily miss-identified since they have committed similar crimes!
I grew up in the era of the big news networks. It was a great privilege to grow up in the 1970s in the era of great journalism. There is a crop of young people who want to go digging for & writing about the truth. Unfortunately, it is hard to make a living as a journalist today. Our democracy & our communities are in peril as a result. Group think by alt-right manipulation is like a virus spreading across red-state America with the internet as the vehicle for transmission.
LOL, gummipuppe, please contact mueller with your "proof" that there is no evidence, numbnuts. do you even understand how investigations work? obviously, you are ignorant to the fact that there are wh investigations that have taken place over the span of YEARS, the longest of which being around seven years. buckle up, buttercup...
@Quenie Well so far it's nothing but leftist conspiracy. The only "evidence" they will find are Russian trolls on Facebook and probably some other social media platforms, that's it. Until then, mindless idiots like you will think that there's a "bigger plot" behind the scenes.
What a wonderful interview! That guy just puts a smile on my face :)
Fake News
Manuel Gomez = Fake Mexican
Very good interview about the situation of journalism today. It's important to listen to people like this, who have lived through these changes from print to online.
Excellent analysis. Schieffer is the man!
He definitely should have received more time.
IKR!!! was thinkin' the same. i mean, his wisdom in experience ALONE is just too expansive to be swatted with only a few questions, AND he's with cbs, for fuck's sake! both of these men are capable of diving into the deep end of politics, and it's a shame that they spashed around the shore. the book should've been given ample time for this first part, then a commercial break, then the really juicy stuff. very disappointing.
Fiskgyrl2. This is the new world we live in, where the Kardashians would be given unlimited time and smart people like Bob gets five minutes.
Uh....yeah....we're a shallow people and, more and more, I'm thinking we deserve what's going on now.
Proof that he's a good journalist...diplomatically calling things "different"
Regardless of what I think of Trump, this is the most unstable US presidency that I've ever witnessed.
James Rice Sorry but we have eyes and ears that can read his tweets and see his comments. Only the koolaid drinkers can't believe their lying eyes and ears
James A. Rice no that’s what I think the moment he opens his mouth or his Twitter.
James A. Rice fake news only cover a fake president, sooo I guess that balances it out
James A. Rice are you a trump supporter ? Why should I support trump ?
What was the point of the "calm before the storm" remark? You keep that to yourself. Comment on the photo in 20 years, maybe. He can't play ANYTHING close to his chest. I am surprised that he doesn't pinch his weiner and dance around when he needs to go potty. He's a child. A "fucking moron".
Bob Schieffer is more valuable than a dozen Donald Trumps in terms of benefit to our society.
To be honest, an average homeless man benefits society way more than Trump! At least the homeless man is not scamming people of their life savings, laundering money for criminal enterprises like the Russian and Italian mafias, or bribing judges and politicians so that he can steal from the government and the poor people by chasing them off their homes so that he could build fancy hotels over them!
I love it when older people pass on wisdom and help us be smarter!
Harley Q. Hahahaha yeah you are right but I said wisdom and thought that was an indication enough that I meant sane, good human people. Lol
Snigdha M we only get smarter if we listen
What luck for Bob...lol
remember, boys and girls, FORTUNE FAVORS THE BRAVE...
What a lovely man. So well spoken and kind. Really wish there were more people today like him in this political climate.
that was a hell of a story lol
Such a great gentleman.

Proud to have studied at TCU's Bob Schieffer College of Communication
thumbs up if "different" isnt nearly enough to describe trump
Anish Mohanty It's either that or being called fake news.
Anish Mohanty h
Anish Mohanty
Agreed, but Bob Schieffer was being diplomatic.
I prefer to refer to him as "Special", emphasis on the air quotes
Anish Mohanty I think he was trying to be subtle so you can read between the lines.
Wow, a twist of fate. “Welcome Bob, come on in, Mr. Big is waiting for you.”
This man is amazing. More of him please!!
Wow that story was epic
I've always liked Bob. He really has a way of answering questions in an insightful manner.
This man is just charming
Dan. That was way short. Funny story though
- The best president
- The greatest president you have ever seen. A tremendous president.
- You've never seen a president like this, believe me
- Because I know presidents, I am good at that
- Nobody knew being a president could be this complicated, people don't know that
- I like winners not losers, I like presidents who can preside
- And there are no truly bad presidents, just voters on many sides, many sides
- And not all presidents are bad, some I assume are good presidents
- I've spoken to people who know presidents, and they agree with me
- We're working on the perfect president, we're working on it
- I have a plan for a great president, which I'll share with you later
- This is a president surrounded by voters, big voters, human voters
- Presidents are easy, you just grab them by the ######
- And for those who don't agree with me, you're FAKE presidents!
- Bing bing bong, BIGLEE!!!
thiefofa1073 l
yep. you sums it up, BIGLY.
This guy is a hero! Thanks for professional journalism!
There’s a good argument to be made that a lack of information quality control is the greatest threat to democracy today..
What a charming guy! Would love to see more of him on the show!
Bob Schaffer reminds me of how simple humble and beautiful America was
Moral: sometimes all you have to do is show up....on someone else's appointment.
Bob Schieffer is truly a legend in broadcast journalism & I hope that journalists & up & coming reporters follow his example
It would be nice to hear more from Bob.
It's time for the 25th amendment.
Yeah, sure... If "Different" means "could potentially bring about World War III over something as inane as a bruised ego."
We need many more Bob Shhieffers in the world.
It helps to have balls. If you want something, go for it.
Ha ha ha..it's.....different. Trump has broken even our most holy of journalists
No he hasn't haha
There's a huge difference between being "broken" and having the training and experience to know what to say and when. He's a legend in the industry and all those years of experience must come with knowledge of how to approach a question so your words aren't misconstrued.
neocelestia I wasn't dissing him. If that was my intent I would've simply said "that guy is a shitty journalist" so my words weren't misconstrued.
Not sure whether YT's eating my replies so forgive me if this is one of three. But to clarify: I was referring to him knowing how to make sure 'HIS' words weren't misconstrued, not yours.

Wise words, Mizshell Mxioi; I wish more people would heed them.
You can also subscribe to The Nation, Mother Jones and the Progressive.

That was a wonderful story
He said "fuck it, I'm going in" lol funny story
Love Bob back in the day. His news was worthy to watch.
Bob seems like a super nice guy.
Wow such profound discerning of what is happening to present media. This is a world wide phenomena.
Lovely senior guy
Now THATS a story! What a guy
very good interview. Great man!
Bring him back, that interview was great, but too short. I'm sure he so many stories to tell.
RESPECT for how he got the job at CBS!
I could sit and talk to this man all day. :-)
So humble this man!!
Bob Schieffer is a badass I'm glad I got introduced to him through this video.
We could always feel Bob Schieffer was just like one of us and could be trusted to tell us the truth.
3:56 That was a great story!
Who holds up the sign whooooooiiiiieeeee
That’s a hilarious story! Goes to show you what taking a chance can do and getting away from the Internet.
I feel like he had some great stories and could listen to him talk all day . CoolStoryBob
If the bureau chief's mother said she had an appointment with him, he should have checked it out.
We should teach _how to vet through resources_ and _critical journalism_ to each and every child in school.
Could just catch a glimpse of Bob’s socks, but on top of everything else he’s done also I wanted to say, “Bob, keep it up, and I love the purple socks”.
Yep. Very nice socks!
Elite as he may be; there is a reason for it. Love this!
very interesting points he Bob has made !!
Loving the musical intro!
OMG! When Bob Schieffer walked out and jumped up on the stage like he was a 35 year old I said WOW! did he really look good. He has to be working out in the gym.
He has a great show host smile!
And to think there are so many Jimmys in late night shows nowadays...:D
Wonderful
Nice guy
Stephen hathaway "uncle bob"
I support Bob Schieffer!
When I saw the title of the book, I thought it was about Harvey Weinstien.
New Message Actually he only did what tRUMP admitted to doing, but one got fired and the other got elected fcking president
Maybe you need glasses.
Trump and Weinstein are two crooks of the same coin! Both are cut from the same cloth and easily miss-identified since they have committed similar crimes!
Crazy 'ol man Schiefer, always good for a laugh.
Informed.
Great story!
Bob Schieffer is a good ol boy.
You know that lots of newspapers have opted to be online instead of on paper right? Like the Los Angeles Times exists well online
What a classy guy. Didn't know he had a Texas drawl bc; never heard it on air. Hope he's teaching future journalists.
Yes. Great story.
Now, make your case and I’ll see what I can do.
Wow, wisdom! So it is how it looks like? I forgot about that!
Linda B Mrs. Blunt, from Dulles M.S.?
awesome grandpa story.
I support all U.S. Presidents forever!
Why should I buy the book? He said it all in the interview.
Holy shit. Reminds me of Walter Cronkite. Awesome.
The best!!!
Class
Cutest grandpa story ever :D
This is why people think the earth is flat.
"something something fake news"
This dude looks really interesting, definitely going to check out his book.
He's snazzy!!
Go frogs! I love Bob Schieffer!
I grew up in the era of the big news networks. It was a great privilege to grow up in the 1970s in the era of great journalism.

does anyone know what song john plays when bob is coming out to sit down??
Our LUNATIC, the President!
He is the man!
He thinks it's still back in the days when there was a thing called investigative journalism.
What a nice story! Talk about destiny!
Did you notice I'm pregnant!? Priceless ;)
3:01 says the man from cabs 4 words weapons of mass destruction you set off a war
Finally something interesting
Unfortunate that the journalists in this country are so unevenly distributed.
Nice purple socks Bob Schieffer!
Why are the captions off?
so this is how Trump became president. Russia/Facebook
Of course. But only for the lunatic liberals who stick to the crazy Russia narrative with no evidence.
Gummipuppe you'll be surprised
Really? Of how stupid the left has become?
LOL, gummipuppe, please contact mueller with your "proof" that there is no evidence, numbnuts. do you even understand how investigations work? obviously, you are ignorant to the fact that there are wh investigations that have taken place over the span of YEARS, the longest of which being around seven years. buckle up, buttercup...
