These are questions that take cultures thousands of years to answer. During answer the call,

I take questions from people just like you about their problems, opportunities, challenges,

or when they simply need advice. How do I balance all of this grief, responsibility? How do you

repair this kind of damage? My daughter, Michaela, guides the conversations as we hopefully help people

navigate their lives. Everyone has their own destiny. Everyone.

Everyone. Hey, everyone, it's Andrew Claven with this week's interview with Selena Zito, a fantastic journalist and the author of Butler, the untoold Story of the Near Assassination of Donald Trump and the Fight for America's Heartland.

One of the reasons I just love reading Selena Zito is because one of the great lies of

our dying mainstream media was always this.

They would always say, well, you can be a left winger and still cover the

news fairly. And that is true as it's spoken, but it's not true as it's lived because if you

are surrounded by other left-wingers, you have something called group polarization where you just

all become more and more left-wing. If you were in a newsroom, and I've been and worked in

newsrooms where people have different opinions, then yes, then you tend to be fair and you tend to correct each other. But the fact

that the news media is hugely, hugely biased toward the left. About 40% of journalists openly

identify as Republicans. The rest are lying about 10%. Maybe you are openly identify as Republicans, the rest are lying about 10%, maybe are openly identify as Republicans

and then are quickly fired.

But not only that, beyond that, they almost all live on the coasts.

They almost all live in New York, D.C. and California.

And that's especially true as the small papers and the small venues have died.

I mean, newspapers died. It wasn't kind of a conspiracy. It was just the internet took their

classified ads away. And so they had no way of funding. When I was a small town newspaper man,

I had five competitors. And we were fighting for stories about school boards.
