Podcast

Over the past few years the media has come under scrutiny because of a series of misleading reports including Covid and Preident Bidens condition. The result is that people are turning away from the regular media to places like Pod Cast and certain social media like TicTok and X. The result is that advertizers are looking for new ways to promote their products. One big difference will be the way business is able to influence the news. With a relatively small number of outlets money could be a powerful force but with many thousands of independent news people it will be more difficult. There are 3 million podcast in the US with a 130 million listeners. Independent media is growing rapidly while the old style media is in decline. This will also make it more difficult for the government to put out false information. There will be millions of fact checkers.
