Yeah, you know what? When I was growing up, I remember people like Walter Cronkite. Yeah, and that's the way it was. Yeah, David and Huntley, whoever.

Huntley and Brinkley, right. And then we jumped up to Jerry Springer. Right, right. You know, there was, I mean, so it was like this switch where, you know, Jerry Springer was, well, he was a mayor of a major city, but, you know, he was talking about some stuff and people were like, I couldn't, I didn't really realize how many people went to his audience.

I mean, they just, they loved that, whatever that drama was. And I think that for some folks now, it is about the drama But again, the reality is this, is if you're involved with fake news, who really benefits from it? Does it give you a sense of power? I think a lot of people are doing it for the fact that, at least, again, these are my opinions. I'm not expressing for anybody else.

I think people enjoy the fact that they are in the middle of stuff. And that's why we get fake news.

But I think, I think, People now are looking for quick answers. I mean, they were talking about the time people will only view an article for like 15 seconds. They want something that's going to be quick and clean. And people have their attention span is so short now that anything that even comes close to what they are thinking, again, this is my general opinion, it's okay.

As long as it maintains a certain comfort level for me. But I don't think people like being uncomfortable with things that they don't necessarily agree with. And so it makes it so much easier to just say, well, I don't agree with that. I'm going to stay with what I do. I want to say this one story. I have met people in my work that know the truth. but won't receive it.

I know people that had a different life experience and what they're talking about, but they still will go with the fakeness versus what they really, really know. And that's always befuddled me. Yeah. Like, you know the truth. You know what's real. But yet and still, you choose to purposefully do something different. I don't know. But anyway, that's my puzzlement for today.

You know what, Stan? I'm going to tell you the truth. I listen... You said something that really struck me very, very deeply, my friend. Because sometimes I watch the crazy news knowing that it's different than what I really, really believe for entertainment purposes. But what's

What's interesting to me really is, first of all, that I would waste my time watching stupid stuff that I consider stupid. Once again, this is talking about my opinion.
