So we are all living in interesting times as American society undergoes dramatic change.

A lot of that change is bad.

And when I say that, I mean that traditions that strengthened the USA are being destroyed or broken down. And we all know that. We do this

almost every night. We challenge. And now with the presidential election of November, you really have a clear choice between the

progressive left, which controls everything Joe Biden does, and wants quasi-socialistic

country woke and all that, and Donald Trump, who you may not like, but he will keep the

country on a traditional path. All right, he's not going to blow up

the structure that we have. And that's basically what this is all about, this election, very,

very important in history. So the press is a part of all this, and that is the subject of the

Talking Points memo this evening. I'm going to

give you one example of a press outlet you know. You may not read it, but you know it. It's USA Today.

So at its height, 40 years ago, USA Today, at a circulation of about 2.5 million readers, because they gave it away free in the airports. It was everywhere.

Hotels gave it to you, that kind of thing. 2.5. You know what the circulation of that is now?

About 120,000. From 2.5 million in 89, it's dropped 94% in circulation. And the reason is that Gannett,

the parent company, has changed it into an ideological situation.

All right, I'm gonna prove that now.

So Gannett is a parent company, and Gannett lost an astounding amount of money last year.

It lost $28 million in 2003, and that's down from $78 million in 22.

And the reason it lost less in 23 is it cut out a lot of its paper.

So it's hard to get USA Today paper.

It's online.

So they cut those costs, but it's still losing $25 million a year.
