Podcaster Joe Rogan accused left-wing media of losing viewers at a time when many Americans are increasingly wary of left-wing media's distrust and bias.
On his podcast, Rogan talked about a recent op-ed by billionaire Amazon founder and Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos, headlined “The Hard Truth: Americans Don't Trust the News Media.” I added.
He parlayed the text into saying, “Essentially, we have to have diverse points of view, we have to have lots of different points of view, we can't just be left-wing echo chambers, and that's why business is down. “I say that's why I'm here,” he summarized.
Rogan argued that the truth of Bezos' observation appears to be playing out across the media landscape.
“I was just reading something about the ratings for CNN and MSNBC after the election, and they both crashed,” Rogan said on Wednesday's show. “All these left-wing weirdos on YouTube have skyrocketed their subscriber numbers. People are saying, 'You're out of line, you're not accurate, you're delusional.' And people are talking about subscriptions, they're talking about buying the Washington Post, they're talking about buying the New York Times. ”
And this week, the New York Times published a puzzling fact-finding investigation into Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s claim that popular breakfast cereals contain several artificial ingredients used in the United States that are not used in other countries. I remember posting it.
“The New York Times just debunked RFK Jr.'s claim that the ingredients in Froot Loops are different in Canada and the U.S. in the most outrageous way.
They did a fact check, and he said it was accurate, but the fact check — which is so ridiculous when you look at the facts — I tweeted it. ”
He continued, “The fact check is so stupid because the fact check says it's not true, it contains the same ingredients…except for these harmful chemicals.” said.
He then read the fact check and added his own commentary at the end: “These are dangerous chemicals that are banned in Canada and are being eliminated in the United States.” So they're literally saying he was wrong but he was right. ”
One of Logan's guests said, “I got a headache just reading about it.”
“That's the New York Finging Times,” Logan exclaimed incredulously. “This is what the New York Times is doing, and of course its subscribers are going to bleed. You're crazy, you're crazy, and…what's your motive? mosquito?”
“If we say these things have been eliminated in other countries because they have been proven to be dangerous, what is the motive to say he is wrong?” he wondered. .
When one of the guests said he was motivated by money, Logan asked, “What else could there be?” Before listing other possibilities like “ideology”.
He suggested that another reason is that “the left is rejecting RFK Jr. now because he's connected to Trump, and Trump is connected to the Nazis.” “It's like, you're going down this weird rabbit hole with these people and you're like, 'What are you trying to do? Are you trying to take away all the credit that's left?'
“Are you trying to eliminate? Have you lost so much trust that you're trying to wipe it all out? Are you secretly working for the Chinese? For example, what? He asked.
