But well, they're getting money from PACs.

Yeah, I agree with you. I mean, I would do affiliate work when I was at ABC when I first started on air. And so, you know, I would be the journalist from Washington doing the affiliate work and the affiliates take their reporting extremely serious. They have a lot of trust. And yeah, you're the girl from Washington telling them what's going on. And there is a little bit of distrust.

I think there's a number of reasons why people don't trust the national media. It's very slick. The anchors are very good looking. It's very polished. They're very removed. They are like celebrities. Whereas the people that you watch on TV, it's a little bit in your local community. You recognize them. You see them. They're a little flawed. They're a little imperfect. They sound like you.

They look like you. They have your vernacular. They speak in your voice, in your tones. And I think that's kind of the special thing about the social media as well. The thing that really seems to resonate, what I've noticed, is authenticity on social media. People don't want perfect. They don't want slick. They don't want highly produced. They'd rather see you perfect. Just warts and all.

And that is where they build the trust because they feel like they know who you are. They want to know a little bit about who you are as a person. One of the most popular podcasts I did was when I interviewed my own mother about why she was independent, why she wasn't sure who to vote for, why she couldn't decide between voting for Trump or Kamala Harris. And she's a North Carolina swing voter.

That was one of my most popular podcasts. And it's like, mostly I think because people got to know me and my mother and our, and how we, our rapport and how we feel about my brother and my father and like our lives. And when I, even when I'm listening to my favorite podcast hosts, I'm actually sometimes a little bit more interested about them and their lives and the topics they're talking about.

And so I think like we have as journalists, we, you know, we're big J journalists and we stand there behind a mic and we sit at an anchor desk and all of these things. But what we're really doing is creating a barrier between us and the community. And like I what I do now that I'm an independent journalist is like I just interviewed Mark Cuban.
