  • >> A LOT OF STORES HAVE DONE

  • THAT ALREADY.

  • I WAS AT DINNER LAST NIGHT.

  • NEIL: TRUMP CAMPAIGN ISSUED A

  • STATEMENT BANNING

  • "BLOOMBERG NEWS" SINCE THEY HAVE

  • DECLARED THEIR BIAS OPENLY.

  • THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN WILL NO

  • LONGER CREDENTIAL

  • REPRESENTATIVES OF

  • "BLOOMBERG NEWS" FOR RALLIES OR

  • OTHER CAMPAIGN EVENTS.

  • WE'LL DETERMINE WHETHER TO

  • ENGAGE WITH INDIVIDUAL REPORTERS

  • OR ANSWER INQUIRIES FROM

  • "BLOOMBERG NEWS" ON A

  • CASE-BY-CASE BASIS.

  • THIS WILL REMAIN THE POLICY OF

  • THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN UNTIL

  • "BLOOMBERG NEWS" PUBLICLY

  • RESCINDS ITS DECISION.

  • WHAT ISN'T QUITE CLEAR WHAT

  • DECISION THAT IS BECAUSE THE

  • BLOOMBERG CAMPAIGN ITSELF IS

  • SEPARATE FROM THE BLOOMBERG

  • ORGANIZATION.

  • THE BLOOMBERG MEDIA ORGANIZATION

  • HAS VOWED NOT TO DO ANY, I

  • THINK, CHARLIE GASPARINO WILL

  • CLARIFY THIS FOR US, OPEN

  • INVESTIGATIONS OR EXAMINATIONS,

  • BESIDES DONALD TRUMP, RIGHT?

  • >> YEAH.

  • I MEAN IT'S A VERY UNTENABLE

  • SITUATION WHAT "BLOOMBERG NEWS"

  • HAS IMPOSED ON ITS REPORTERS.

  • NEIL: DOES IT PROVIDE THAT TO

  • OTHER CANDIDATES IN THE RACE?

  • >> FULL DISCLOSURE, I KNOW A LOT

  • OF PEOPLE THERE.

  • I THINK SOME OF THE BEST

  • REPORTERS IN THE BUSINESS.

  • I KNOW A LOT OF EDITORS, PEOPLE

  • IN MANAGEMENT.

  • THEY'RE GOOD PEOPLE.

  • WHAT MIKE BLOOMBERG TRIED TO DO

  • HERE IS THREAD THE NEEDLE.

  • HE TRIED TO SAY LISTEN I'M NOT

  • RUNNING AGAINST TRUMP RIGHT NOW.

  • I'M RUNNING AGAINST ELIZABETH

  • WARREN, ALL THESE DEMOCRATS.

  • THEREFORE BLOOMBERG IF MY

  • REPORTERS WHICH I STILL OWN THE

  • COMPANY, BY THE WAY, HAS MY NAME

  • ON IT, IF THEY WILL COVER, THEY

  • WILL COVER THE NEWS THAT COMES

  • OUT OF THESE CAMPAIGNS.

  • I AM NOT GOING TO HAVE THEM

  • COVER THE DEEP DIVE

  • INVESTIGATIVE REPORTING THAT

  • ATTACKS ELIZABETH WARREN OR

  • ATTACKS PETE BUTTIGIEG.

  • NEIL: PRIOR TO HIS ENTRANCE THEY

  • WERE DOING JUST THAT?

  • >> THEY WERE DOING IT ON

  • EVERYBODY BUT WHEN HE GOT IN, HE

  • DOESN'T WANT HIS REPORTERS TO

  • GIVE HIM AN UNFAIR PLAYING FIELD

  • AGAINST THE PEOPLE HE IS

  • COMPETING DIRECTLY WITH.

  • WHY THEY ALLOWED SAME TYPE OF

  • REPORTING FOR TRUMP BECAUSE HE

  • IS PRESIDENT --

  • NEIL: RIGHT, RIGHT.

  • >> BUT NOT THE SAME TYPE OF

  • COVERAGE FOR THOSE HE IS RUNNING

  • AGAINST.

  • NOW THE PROBLEM WITH THAT IS

  • THAT OF COURSE, ALL THESE

  • CANDIDATES ARE RUNNING AGAINST

  • TRUMP NOW.

  • I MEAN ONE OF THE WAYS TO GET

  • AHEAD IN THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY

  • OBVIOUSLY IS TO BEAT UP ON

  • DONALD TRUMP.

  • NEIL: RIGHT.

  • >> I'M A BETTER CAMPAIGNER.

  • WHILE I HAVE NO DOUBT THAT

  • BLOOMBERG'S NEWS REPORTERS AND

  • EDITORS ARE GOING TO COVER THIS

  • FAIRLY, THIS IS NOT, THIS IS A

  • VERY GOOD ORGANIZATION WHEN IT

  • COMES TO FAIRNESS.

  • I TELLING YOU, I HAVE COMPETED

  • AGAINST THEM FOR YEARS.

  • THIS IS OBVIOUSLY AN OPTICS

  • PROBLEM, IF YOU JUST DO

  • INVESTIGATIONS ON TRUMP, NOT

  • EVERYBODY ELSE YOU HAVE A OPTICS

  • PROBLEM.

  • NEIL: I WANT TO CLEAR THIS, YOU

  • KNOW THIS MORE THAN I DO, PRIOR

  • TO BLOOMBERG ENTERING THE RACE

  • THEY WERE DOING INVESTIGATIONS

  • ON EVERYBODY?

  • >> ON EVERYBODY.

  • OBVIOUSLY NOT MIKE.

  • NEIL: EVEN IS IT MORE GLARING

  • THAT HE IS NOW IN THE RACE STOP

  • DOING IT AGAINST ALL THE

  • DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES?

  • >> THAT IS THE PROBLEM HERE.

  • ARE THEY LOOKING AT DIRTY

  • LAUNDRY OF ELIZABETH WARREN.

  • NEIL: RIGHT.

  • >> THEY'RE LOOKING AT ONLY THE

  • DIRTY LAUNDRY OF TRUMP.

  • THAT IS THE CASE YOU COULD MAKE.

  • I GIVE YOU THE CASE THEY MAKE.

  • WE'RE DOING THIS MIKE IS RUNNING

  • AGAINST ELIZABETH WARREN, PETE

  • BUTTIGIEG, BIDEN, NOT AGAINST

  • TRUMP.

  • IN REALITY HE IS RUNNING AGAINST

  • TRUMP.

  • HIS ADS ARE GOING AGAINST TRUMP.

  • LISTEN I WILL TELL YOU PEOPLE

  • INSIDE OF THE ORGANIZATION,

  • AGAIN REALLY GOOD PEOPLE,

  • THEY'RE TRYING TO THREAD THE

  • NEEDLE, THE REPORTERS FEEL LIKE

  • THIS POLICY SUN TENABLE, JUST SO

  • YOU KNOW.

  • MAJORITY OF THE REPORTERS SAY I

  • CAN'T BELIEVE WE HAVE TO DO

  • SOMETHING LIKE THIS.

  • MY GUESS WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN

  • HERE --

  • NEIL: WHAT IF THEY COME ACROSS A

  • REVELATION, WHAT DO YOU DO?

  • >> SUPPOSE THEY HEAR SOMETHING

  • BAD ABOUT MIKE BLOOMBERG.

  • WHAT DO YOU DO?

  • GIVE IT TO THE "NEW YORK TIMES"?

  • I DON'T GET IT THIS IS MY GUESS,

  • KIND OF WHAT IS BOUNCING AROUND

  • THE HALLWAYS INSIDE

  • "BLOOMBERG NEWS," AFTER SUPER

  • TUESDAY, YOU KNOW, BIDEN, YOU

  • WILL GET SOME IDEA WHERE THIS

  • CAMPAIGN IS GOING, WHETHER IT IS

  • GOING TO COMPLETE CHAOS,

  • BROKERED CONVENTION.

  • NEIL: I THINK HE IS BANKING NO

  • ONE WINNING ON THE FIRST BALLOT.

  • HE IS GOOD AT MATH.

  • GOOD AT NUMBERS.

  • THAT IS WHEN HIS CHANCE --

  • >> JUST HEAR ME OUT, I THINK HE

  • WILL KNOW FOR SURE AFTERRER

  • TUESDAY?

  • DOES BIDEN CLEAN UP?

  • GET NEVADAS SOUTH CAROLINA,

  • AFTER SUPER TUESDAY?

  • IF THAT IS THE CASE MIKE

  • BLOOMBERG DOESN'T HAVE A GOOD

  • SHOT AT THAT SCENARIO HAPPENED.

  • NEIL: IT IS STILL A SHOT.

  • >> AFTER SUPER TUESDAY WE'LL GET

  • IDEA WHERE MIKE BLOOMBERG IS

  • GOING, IF HE STAYS IN.

  • IF HE STAYS IN, MY GUESS HE WILL

  • FIGURE OUT SOME WAY TO ALLOW

  • THEIR REPORTERS TO COVER

  • EVERYBODY BY PUTTING THIS WHOLE

  • THING IN A BLIND TRUST OR

  • SELLING IT.

  • BY THE SALE OF THIS THING --

  • NEIL: WHAT WOULD HE DO AS MAYOR

  • OF NEW YORK?

  • >> NEW YORK CITY COVERAGE FOR

  • MIKE BLOOMBERG WAS LIKE THIS.

  • HE HIRED OTHER PEOPLE TO DO IT.

  • NEIL: BUT IT WASN'T IN A BLIND

  • TRUST.

  • >> IT WASN'T.

  • REMEMBER IT WASN'T --

  • NEIL: ON A NATIONAL BASIS.

  • >> THIS IS PRESIDENT OF THE

  • UNITED STATES, A HUGE THING.

  • SO I AM JUST SAYING I THINK

  • SUPER TUESDAY IS WHAT WE FIND

  • OUT THEY DO WITH

  • "BLOOMBERG NEWS."

  • DOES HE PUT IT IN A BLIND TRUST?

  • DOES HE SELL IT?

  • VERY DIFFICULT TO SELL.

  • VERY DIFFICULT TO SELL BECAUSE

  • IT'S A HUGE COMPANY.

  • NEIL: ABSOLUTELY.

  • >> THIS IS 50 BILLION-DOLLAR

  • DEAL PRIVATE EQUITY MIGHT HAVE

  • TO BUY.

  • WOULD HE PUT IT IN A BLIND

  • TRUST?

  • I THINK THAT IS WISHY-WASHY

  • THING.

  • NEIL: I THINK HE WOULDN'T DO

  • THAT UNTIL AFTER HE IS ELECTED.

  • >> I THINK SUPER TUESDAY HE

  • TURNS THIS LOOSE FOR THE

  • REPORTERS.

  • EXECUTING THE NEWS OUT OF

  • TERMINAL BUSINESS, VERY

  • DIFFICULT, THEY'RE SO

  • INTERTWINED.

  • IT'S A VERY GOOD VALUE ADDED FOR

  • ANY TRADER.

  • THIS IS, BY THE WAY, THIS WAS

  • TELEGRAPHED.

  • YOU KNEW TRUMP WOULD DO

  • SOMETHING LIKE THIS.

  • BECAUSE, IT WAS SO, YOU KNOW, HE

  • HAD JUST ABOUT EVERY EDITORIAL

  • PAGE ON HIS SIDE INCLUDING

  • LIBERAL EDITORIAL PAGES BECAUSE

>> A LOT OF STORES HAVE DONE
