| 0:00.0 | Axios writer Felix Salmone reports that trust in the drive by media has reached a low point in |
| 0:06.8 | America. It's so low that he says it's at a crisis state. Now, he reports that for the first |
| 0:12.8 | time ever, fewer than half of all Americans trust the traditional media, meaning the drive buys. |
| 0:19.0 | Almost 60 percent of Americans believe that most traditional news outlets are more concerned with |
| 0:24.4 | an ideology or a political position than they are reporting the news. Almost the same percentage |
| 0:29.6 | think that the drive by media journalists are willing to tell gross exaggerations and to report |
| 0:35.6 | things they know are false. IE fake news. In typical Axios format, the reporter then has to |
| 0:42.1 | tell his Millennial readers why it matters. Felix Salmone, maybe it's pronounced salmon, who knows, |
| 0:49.0 | says this matters because faith in society's central institutions, especially in government and |
| 0:53.7 | media is the glue that holds society together. And that glue, he says, is visibly dissolving. |
| 0:59.9 | And for many millions of Americans, it's disappeared completely. Salmone does not understand that |
| 1:04.9 | the reason 60 percent of Americans have no faith in the media or in his precious government |
| 1:09.6 | institutions is because they're smart. They know the drive buys and the deep state government are |
| 1:15.2 | run by dishonest corrupt vicious leftists. And for the last four years, they've seen those liberals |
| 1:21.3 | totally deranged with hatred for Trump and everyone who supports him. That's really why it matters. |
| 1:28.0 | And they don't even have the slightest idea. |
