The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (04/09/2024):
3:05pm- In new editorial published by The Free Press, Uri Berliner—a Senior Editor and Reporter at National Public Radio—writes: “It’s true NPR has always had a liberal bent, but during most of my tenure here, an open-minded, curious culture prevailed. We were nerdy, but not knee-jerk, activist, or scolding. In recent years, however, that has changed. Today, those who listen to NPR or read its coverage online find something different: the distilled worldview of a very small segment of the U.S. population.” He also notes that as of 2023, “only 11 percent [of NPR listeners] described themselves as very or somewhat conservative. 21 percent as middle of the road, and 67 percent of listeners said they were very or somewhat liberal.” Consequently, NPR is “losing moderates and traditional liberals” in favor of far-left progressives.

3:40pm- Rich references former Director of the National Institutes of Health Dr. Francis Collins. Of course, Matt and Henry need to play “Somewhere Past the Pandemic”—an original song to the tune of “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” that Collins recorded in November 2021.
3:50pm- Recently, former ESPN anchor Sage Steele revealed that an interview she conducted with President Joe Biden on March 31, 2021 was meticulously scripted by the White House—and her employer would not allow her to deviate from the questions that were provided to her.

4:30pm- While speaking at an event prior to Monday’s solar eclipse, Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) told a crowd that the moon is made of gases and the sun is “almost” too hot for astronauts to go near. Alarmingly, Rep. Leeserved as a member of the Science Committee and was the Ranking Member on the Space and Aeronautics Subcommittee!
4:50pm- Tommy Christopher of Mediate writes that “USA Today changed its headline about former President Donald Trump’s abortion message after President Joe Biden’s campaign torpedoed the paper in a press call.” You can read the full story here: https://www.mediaite.com/news/usa-today-changes-trump-abortion-headline-after-biden-campaign-torpedoes-them-in-press-call-see-deleted-version/
5:05pm- Last month, while appearing on MSNBC’s Morning Joe, University of Maryland Professor Thomas Schaller discussed his book and claimed that white rural voters are “racist, xenophobic, anti-immigrant, anti-gay” and pose a “threat” to the country. In response to these claims, Nicholas F. Jacobs—a political scientist at Colby College—rebutted Schaller’s findings. Jacobs writes: “I’m an academic who studies rural Americans and lives in rural Maine. My job and passion is to pore over reams of data, including some of the largest surveys of rural voters ever conducted. Sitting on my computer are detailed responses from over 25,000 rural voters that I have conducted over the last decade and used to publish a range of peer-reviewed and widely cited research. And I’ve done it all largely to make sense of why rural voters are continually drawn to the Republican Party. But the thing about rage—I’ve never found it.” You can read the Jacobs’s full article here: https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2024/04/05/white-rural-rage-myth-00150395
5:45pm- Flashback: Hillary Clinton claimed she carried hot sauce with her at all times + Joe Biden told coal miners they should learn to code. Progressives have belittled blue collar workers for several election cycles—are they going to completely abandon the Democrat party in 2024?
6:05pm- According to a report on NBC Nightly News, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump now leads President Joe Biden among voters aged 18 to 29 by 18% (58% to 40%). Interestingly, Biden won the demographic outright in 2020. On Monday, the Biden Administration announced a new plan to forgive student loans for up to 30 million Americans. Could this be a strategic attempt to appeal to young voters?
6:15pm- In a new editorial for the Wall Street Journal, co-founder of Susquehanna International Group Jeff Yass writes: “Every child deserves access to a quality education. For several decades my wife and I have tried to make that ideal a reality by concentrating our philanthropy and political donations on advancing school choice. We want children to have a chance at success—and, if necessary, to be able to leave schools that aren’t allowing them to meet their full potential. Often solving public-policy challenges is complicated, but in this case it isn’t. School choice is the answer.” He concludes that President Joe Biden is the “worst” candidate for school choice.

6:20pm- Ryan Saavedra of The Daily Wire writes: “Sulfur hexafluoride, a gas 24,300 times more potent at creating the greenhouse effect than carbon dioxide, is being released into the atmosphere at an alarming rate as China seeks to expand its electric power grid… Sulfur hexafluoride, SF6, is used ‘primarily in high-voltage electrical switchgear in electric power grids,’ the [MIT University] report said, adding that atmospheric concentrations of the greenhouse gas have skyrocketed as the global demand for electric power increases.” You can read the full article here: https://www.dailywire.com/news/mit-study-gas-24000x-more-powerful-than-co2-being-released-from-chinas-power-grid
6:35pm- The Rich Zeoli Game Show: Who is dumber? Congressman Hank Johnson or Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee?
6:50pm- Zach Jewell of The Daily Wire writes: “Democrats and the campaign for President Joe Biden are heading for trouble in Ohio as a law in the state could prevent Biden from appearing on the ballot in November. The Ohio Secretary of State’s office sent a letter to Ohio Democratic Chair Liz Walters on Friday, warning of ‘an apparent conflict in Ohio law’ as the Democratic National Convention—where Biden will officially be nominated—is scheduled for August 19, 12 days after the deadline when presidential nominees must be certified by the Secretary of State.” You can read the full article here: https://www.dailywire.com/news/biden-faces-potential-trouble-getting-on-general-election-ballot-in-midwestern-state
