| 0:00.0 | Sadly, it looks like not even country music is safe from the woke mind-virus you see earlier |
| 0:12.0 | this week were the country music television awards and frankly, there was as much liberal |
| 0:17.0 | virtue signaling as you would expect from any mainstream Hollywood event. As Wright |
| 0:21.6 | Barton News explains, CMT Music Awards go woke Kelsey Ballerini stands in solidarity |

| 0:32.7 | even though I do live in Nashville and even though I am conservative, I actually am not super |
