Genuinely independent podcasters have become the new and real face of journalism and reporting in this nation; and do it at a micro-fraction of the cost of the legacy media racket.
The only problem is we had the legacy medias code down and even though we could tell when they were on a script, blatantly lying or clueless we could grab small chucks of truth. Hard to do that with podcasts.
(Shrug) Common sense still works. It becomes fairly obvious when a podcaster is just shilling for a party's ideology and policies at the expense of the truth . . . which is why there essentially are no successful leftist podcasters.
