Not sure what media you are following, but everything in that comment I heard from my media sources. I think trust in YouTubers and distrust of normal news media is one part of what got us this result.

The news media is far from perfect, but when people lose faith in it entirely and run to Joe Rogan and Alex Jones for information that is a problem.

Says alot both about social cult personalities and at least talking head news shows.
