Right, but it is. So they came out heavy on USAID. Why? Because that's the narrative that they wanted to run, right? And that's what was leaked to them. That's the problem with not being an accountable media organization, is that you'll just take what you're fed. But There is two legitimate questions here. There are two legitimate questions.
One is, should taxpayer dollars be going to any outlet for any reason? OK, because of the inherent conflict that Tom is bringing up. And I think that's a legitimate question. And it's a little surprising. I've never heard of this before. There's a second question though. Congress funds a lot of regional and local media. A lot of outlets are dying, right?
Local news is struggling in a lot of places, especially in print. There's a lot of subsidies. Is that a good use of taxpayer dollars? That's a harder question for me. It's easy to say, should you be giving the New York Times money? It's different if you're talking about the Topeka, Kansas Register newspaper. Why would you give them money, though?
But I'm saying we haven't heard that story yet.
In the public interest of information and news that you want to inform citizenry and that these outlets are going to close down. There's going to be there will be fewer outlets. There'll be more driven by agendas. And we want to make sure that there's a robust free media, even if that means there has to be some supporting of smaller outlets that wouldn't survive in the marketplace.
That's the argument.
You can argue that we are living proof right now that you don't need to do it this way anymore. Again, it's a political question, not a legal question. And I think that the media has evolved in a way where everybody has immediate access to information and they have their own microphone.
So maybe the situation has changed and it's time to look at it because every dollar you save is a deliverable on what the promise of the last campaign was.
Yeah, mostly HHS.
So I did a little research on this. They have an energy, a special, they have a special product that has like deeper experts and stuff. But here's the problem. Congress buys subscriptions also, Pat. But they do like a subscription that you can go in and everybody uses the same code for the New York Times so that all members of Congress can get access to these different media outlets.
I don't have so much of a problem with that. They want to subscribe to Valuetainment so that everybody can see what's going on here. That's cool. They should be informed about what's happening in significant places. It's when you allow it on an individual basis, you wind up netting up these costs.
And now you have like 937, as we were talking about earlier, your own audit, people getting separate subscriptions. That's when it gets expensive.
Yeah.
But it's also not car and driver. It's the New York Times, and there is a conflict.
Car and Driver magazine, who cares if you subscribe? There's no agenda. You subscribe to the New York Times, there's a conflict.
And you know which party cares about that more?
Neither. Neither give a damn. They never cut spending on their watch.
You hope they do that? I hope they keep doing it. I have a feeling. Why would they stop doing it? Because something else will become more important. And there'll be the Iran nuclear deal. It'll be what's happening in Ukraine. And then people stop covering it. They stop paying attention. You stop hearing about it.
It's not true about Stiller or Penn. Penn has an organization that he started called CORE. which is kind of like the Red Cross that does amazing work in Haiti and other distressed areas. It is a relief organization. That's what the money was tied to. And they have done a lot of work with displaced people in Poland and in Ukraine. So these guys aren't the problem, photo ops aside.
So that's the problem. That's the problem with the conflict is that – You can have problems with headlines. I mean, headlines are all disingenuous, right? I mean, they almost never reflect what you'll find halfway down a story. That's the problem with balance and media and judging your outlets.
