What I'm not doing is buying up media properties subversively and ramming through a certain perspective that hues more closely to...
voice-verified
a certain political party that will stop at nothing to consolidate more power for themselves.
voice-verified
But again, look, we are fortunate enough to be in a space where we're dealing with a lot of high information viewers.
voice-verified
And so they can make that determination for themselves.
voice-verified
And I think the drop in CBS's viewership is a testament to that.
voice-verified
Do you consider yourself to be a journalist?
voice-verified
no i don't um i consider myself to be a political commentator i i have a lot of respect and and reverence for the work that journalists do and i wouldn't be able to do what i do without the work that journalists do but i don't want to put myself on the same level i'm not out here calling sources i'm giving my opinion um and in large part i rely on on that work but it's not the exact work i do um so so i i feel like it would be unfair
voice-verified
to say that I'm a journalist.
voice-verified
Now, that's not to say that I don't do journalism, that's not to say that I don't break news when I sit down with elected officials or whoever it may be, but I view myself as a political commentator first, and I think that the people who do the hard work of journalism deserve that title
voice-verified
for all the work that it entails.
voice-verified
Yeah, I think, look, I think in large part, it's in the eye of the beholder, right?
voice-verified
So I think that if someone, I think that anybody, this might be where you and I differ, because I think that I'm not so moved.
voice-verified
I can see how you as a journalist yourself, a longtime journalist yourself, would have a stronger opinion on this.
voice-verified
I'm more focused on
voice-verified
less on the labels that people ascribe to themselves and more on the work that we're all doing in this ecosystem.
voice-verified
So I'm less precious about the labels.
voice-verified
Look, I try to comport myself in a way that I think is fair.
voice-verified
And so I'll do me.
voice-verified
But I think in terms of what other people want to do,
voice-verified
It is what it is.
