NEW MEDIA HAS CRUSHED MSM IN RATINGS!

➡ Dave Hodges, host of the Common Sense show, discusses various issues including the failure of banks, the importance of investing in precious metals, and the alleged involvement of various groups in fraudulent activities. He also talks about the future of news, highlighting the role of citizen journalism in uncovering massive fraud. The discussion further delves into the potential reasons behind certain political actions, suggesting financial gain, voter manipulation, and population control as possible motives. Lastly, Hodges criticizes the current media model and hints at a new, more effective one.
➡ The speaker discusses the importance of citizen journalism and the decline of mainstream media. They argue that mainstream media is controlled by a few institutions and is losing trust and funding, with most advertising money going to online platforms like Google and Facebook. The speaker also mentions their own news platform, which allows anyone to contribute news and opinions, and is funded by small investments from many people to avoid control by a single entity. They believe this type of platform, which gives power back to the people, is the future of news reporting.
➡ We are a news content distribution platform that allows people to publish their own news relevant to their city or county. This platform is powered by the people, giving them the power to contribute and share news that traditional media outlets might not cover. We have contributors from all over the United States, and the news you see is relevant to your location. This platform is the future of news, moving towards a citizen-powered press.
➡ This text discusses a new platform that allows users to submit content and grow their audience. The platform is growing rapidly, with thousands of articles being submitted each week. The creators believe that this platform will eventually replace mainstream media, as younger generations are increasingly turning to digital platforms for information. They plan to keep the platform free from institutional control and potentially take it public in the future.
➡ The speaker is discussing the potential of a new global platform for content creators. The platform aims to go public and is expected to attract a large number of creators, potentially up to a million. The speaker believes this platform will become the next mainstream media, providing a space for free speech and uncovering truths that traditional media may ignore. The speaker also suggests that investing in this platform could yield significant returns as it grows.
➡ This text encourages people to invest in a growing local news platform, YourNews.com, which allows users to share local stories and become citizen journalists. The minimum investment is $200, and the goal is to reach 3,000 investors before going public. The speaker believes this is a unique opportunity, comparing it to early investments in companies like Google and Amazon. The platform aims to promote free speech and counter mainstream media, which the speaker criticizes for spreading misinformation.

And hey, Dave Hodges here, host of the Common Sense show. We are the show that is freeing America one enslaved mind at a time. Thank you so much for joining us. We’re coming to you live from the Noble Gold Studios. Hey, the first banks already failed, ladies and gentlemen. That’s right. One down. How many to go? And under Dodd Frank, 2010. They can take your money. Don’t let them do it. Don’t let them do it. You need to get into precious metals. Call Noble Gold 877. We ready? I’ll say that again. I’m going to send you the website because you won’t remember the number if I put this on podcast.

Go to davehodgesgold.com davehodgesgold.com Our guest is Sam Anthony and he’s the founder and owner of your news. And we’re going to talk about mainstream media. I am greatly disturbed at the Minneapolis coverage both from public interaction with ice, with the fraud and I mean the horrible fraud and the fact that the Mossad’s involved in that fraud. The Chinese are involved in that fraud. Our government acknowledges the Chinese are not acknowledging the Mossad, but they’re involved. And there seem to be other groups involved siphoning money off. And the mainstream media life is blissful. Mainstream media. Yeah. We’re going to talk about.

Sam, welcome to the show. And you’d mentioned to me in our pre air discussion about Nick Shirley. Talk about him and why Nick is going to be important in the coming media that will replace the legacy media that’s going extinct. Dave, good to see you again. And, and, and you’re, you’re exactly correct. The legacy media is not going to report on this stuff. For the life of me, I really don’t understand why they live here too. But apparently they’re all bought and paid for it. It’s the only conclusion you could come up with. But the good news is, is, you know, you’ve heard me say many times legacy media is not going to survive.

It’s an antiquated product. But going to your question about Nick Shirley, Nick Shirley is, is real proof that citizen journalism exists and is the future of news. So here’s a, here’s a young kid who never went to journalism school, right? At least I don’t think he did. I, I hadn’t found anything that says he went to journalism school, doesn’t work for any network television station, any newspaper, any radio station, yet somehow uncovers massive fraud. Fraud all by himself. Is that amazing or what? So all the networks with literally millions of dollars at their disposal. Can’t find this story, but this kid does explain that to me.

Do you think that Nick is responsible in large part for getting this before Congress? I think, I think he’s the exact reason why. Okay, I’m glad you said that. I didn’t want to overstate. I mean, and you know, this is just as, as everybody saying is the tip of the iceberg. I mean, what he uncovered, I mean, you start peeling the onion back and think of all the states that this is happening in. It’s, it’s got to be happening damn near ever. All 50 states. And, and it’s not in the, it’s in the hundreds of billions.

It has to be. And that’s just one piece of this. They’ve accounted for 19 billion. That’s for Minneapolis. Yeah, yeah, but listen, it’s much bigger than that. Yes. What about Chicago? What about Detroit, Louisiana? What about, you know, what about all these other city, Los Angeles? You know, remember that train in la they were going to build? It just, it’s, you know, they think they, now they need more money because they’re going to start to lay a track down and you know, it’s, it’s endless. The whole thing is one big massive money laundering scheme. And you know, it used to amaze me that the only thing these people do is fight tooth and nail to stop Trump from keeping the money in the, to the, for the American people.

Right. I mean, why would they be fighting something like this? So you have to know that they’re direct beneficiaries of it. They have to be, otherwise why would they fight to keep this going? It’s ridiculous. There’s two reasons, I think. One is exactly what you’re saying. Big time financial payoff. And number two, this is really interesting to me is they need, well, there’s three reasons. The second one has to do with the illegal immigration or bringing in people like Somalias and then giving them that long term visa crap. Okay, you know what they get, they get higher concentration of population that’s going to be Democratic and that means they get more congressional seats.

Okay. Which aren’t differentiated between illegal aliens and regular citizens. So you get a disproportionate number of Democrats representing states like California, Minnesota and so forth. And the third reason is how many of these people get transformed illegitimately into voters. Like in California, anyone can get a driver’s license and the driver’s license is prima facie evidence you’re a citizen and you get registered to vote. So those are the three reasons why they go along with it so well, that I understand. But from the financial side, think of all the money being taken. Why are they trying. Why are they trying to protect the criminals? And it.

The only thing you could figure is they either have to be tied to the money or they want the voters. That’s the only thing you could come up with. So, you know, look, Ilan Omar is seven years in the House of Representatives, right? She’s a member of Congress, Minneapolis. And did you see, she was. She put down. Her net worth was like a thousand dollars or something like that, and I don’t remember the exact numbers, and now it’s worth at least 5 billion or more. I’m hearing 40 million. Well, I. Yeah, I heard 30. But, you know, I was thinking that one company, you know, the wine company.

Yeah, I think she had a wine company. All of a sudden, it went from having nothing. And by the way, you can’t buy wine. They don’t sell wine. But somehow, miraculously, that company is worth millions of dollars. And, you know, you’re almost making it sound like money laundering. How dare you? That’s the whole thing. It’s money laundering. This whole thing is money laundering. NGOs are money laundering. And. And these guys are not dumb. Most of the people in Congress are. Are. Are lawyers, right? So they said, okay, we’ll pass a law that we could give it to this ngo.

And then on the wink, we’re going to tell them, you put 90% of the money back to the DNC, the DNC fund it back to us, and this is how we could afford to keep our lifestyle. We have a, you know, five, ten, or $20 million house. I got $1 million a year in taxes I got to pay. I mean, this is how it’s been going on for years. If you want to know why we’re 30, what are we, $38 trillion in debt? I mean, they’re. They’re burning through almost a trillion a year in waste. There you go.

Over the last 30 years, this is where it’s all went. Yeah, it’s true. It’s interesting. You’ve got a news concept, and I kind of want to go back and forth here to show the value of what you’re doing. I shared, I should say this, the audience I shared with Sam before we went on air that Carrie Lake and Laura Loomer are part of this exchange, as well as someone I know who is well connected through marriage to intel agencies. And so this is real. 20 miles from where I live, there are two huge Taiwan chip plants.

And we got our electricity rates raised by 17% to support this. That’s right. I’m paying for them to make money. But then we found out, it’s worse. We found out that Qatar is underwriting the whole thing. And big time people like Carrie Lake are figuring this out and they’re sending this out. Laura Loomer, to her credit, sent it out. Okay, but you know what? No one knows about this, I’m sure in my area, but if I go to your news and my zip code, it’s going in today. We’re putting this story in today. And see, this is the value of the new news, which is zip code to international, as opposed to a news agency that has a central location with spin off satellite organizations.

But they basically parrot one viewpoint. And it just. It’s such garbage. You know, I want to, before we leave this, because we’re going to get to your model that is so great. I love it in your media model, that’s going to be the dominant one. But I wanted to bring something up to you and I want to call attention to this. Last year, I don’t know if you remember hearing about this, but Melissa Hortman, who was the speaker of the House for the Minnesota legislature, her and her husband were executed in their home. And the guy that did the execution, okay, as it turned out, he was on Waltz’s, one of Waltz’s commission, personally appointed by him.

They know each other. His wife owns an international security company that works in Eastern Europe in places like Romania, Ukraine. And this guy works for them, okay? And his whole M.O. was it’s like a Tyler Robinson fake facade digital image that he was pro Trump. No, he wasn’t pro Trump. And his wife got detained while he was a fugitive after the murders. And she had passports and guns, but they let her go. Minnesota authorities let her go. I think there’s a connection because here’s what I did, Sam, and this is where your media is going to come in and be valuable.

I had to really dig and I had to go and did Melissa Hortman ever call for the investigation of Somali fraud which could have triggered this murder, in my humble opinion. And by the way, the assassin that’s in prison right now waiting trial, he said that Waltz ordered him to do it. I’m not making this up. This has actually become public. It’s in the local papers. So I found all these mainstream media denials Melissa Hortman had anything to do with exposing Somalian fraud until I found it’s not true. A newspaper Within Minneapolis quoted her on the floor addressing her house and said there’s Somalia fraud.

We need to look into it. A month later, she’s dead. See, the value of your organization is someone who knew about this in that zip code could have published to your news website and basically enlightened as many people that wanted to find this and see it instead of some obscure newspaper that I had the hunt for two days to find. You’re exactly correct. This is where it’s all going, right? So it’s all going, it’s all going to citizen journalism. You can no longer trust the mainstream media. Remember we’ve had this conversation. There’s six com, there’s six institutions that control the legacy media.

We’ve all seen the Sinclair Broadcastings where you have 50 channels playing the same thing at the same time, right? That’s the centralized news. The, the beauty is all that stuff’s going away. And so the real news reporting is going to be done from people like you, Dave. It’s going to be done from people like Laura Loomer. It’s going to be your neighbor that signs up to become a citizen journalist on our platform and reports the local news. That’s happening because you can’t count on mainstream media to do it anymore. They’ve all sold, sold out on top of it.

Their infrastructures have shrank or diminished greatly because all the money’s going to platforms. It’s all going to Google, Facebook, Instagram, Tik Tok, it’s you know, YouTube. That’s where all the money money’s going. So there’s far less money. The only thing they have left, Dave, is, is pharmaceutical ads. Yeah, gosh, I hear you. I love our RFK’s idea to ban pharmaceutical ads on, on TV I love, would completely destroy it would the mainstream media, television. They would go out of business instantly because 70 of the money that they, they commit that comes in is from, from the pharmaceutical ads.

So it’s over right then and there. And they’ve gotten so good at their ads. I get caught off guard sometimes TV will come on, it’s in the middle of something and I’ll have this ad that’s human interest. Or I go, wow, this is interesting. And I’m watching it and all of a sudden I realize I’m being duped for a pharmaceutical ad. But it fooled me. There’s some clever production, high level movie style production going on with these ads. They do a great job. They have billions of dollars, remember? I mean they’ve been taking all our money for years.

Right. So that, that is not to get you to buy that drug. You realize that, right? Because you can’t buy it, the doctor has to prescribe it. Yes. Yeah, exactly. You have to go to a doc, tell your doctor about. Hey, your doctor already knows. I’ve sat there in the waiting room while these well dressed pharmaceuticals come in and bypass me while I’m waiting to see the doctor. And they get to see him first. First. So they already know about these medicines. Yep, that’s it. So it’s just to diminish any problems that they may have if one of these, one of these drugs, you know, kills a bunch of people.

Now, they could say, look, we’ll pull the budget from you. So they keep the press, they’re able to control the media because of that. That. It’s really, it’s just really putting more money out there, Dave. That’s all it is. It’s like now they’re, it’s, it’s controlled is what it is. Well, the one thing that I’m going to ask you though is what’s, what’s going to keep your news platform from being overtaken by corporate America, one of the giants that will buy you out? Well, that I, so I do, because that, that’s always been a concern of mine.

The, the concern that I’ve had is that somebody would acquire this and they would then change the culture, you know, to more of a woke culture or, you know, specific. Yeah, so I’m, I’m well ahead of that. So ultimately, the reason we’re doing this thing called an equity crowdfund is because I’m not selling stock to institutions. When you’re a company at our level, Dave, you, you’re selling at a low valuation. So if you were to sell a large portion of stock, they can own a big amount of. What I’m doing is something different. We’re doing something called an equity crowdfund, which means 100% of everybody can participate and they could spend $200 or anywhere in between and they could buy stock in our company.

This circumvents the institutional money, which would take the whole thing. So the average investor in my company spends 12 or $1300. I mean, that’s, you know, you have some that put in more, some that put in less. But, but that’s about the average, maybe a little more than that. Maybe it’s $1,500, but not one person has ultimate control. Also, I’m doing small, I’m doing small capital raises. So remember, I’m selling a $1.2 million offering right now, which we’ve sold just around 500 grand of. But I’m doing it at a $20 million valuation, so I’m only selling roughly 7% of the company.

So when I do the next round of funding, that one’s probably going to be a 5 million, but at $100 million valuation. So you’re only selling 5% of the company. You see, you see how we’re doing this? So, yeah, I call it crumbs. So valuation is fine. It’s a low valuation, but you’re not selling a big enough chunk for anybody to have control. And then when you spread it out over a thousand people, you basically have a thousand people that put in, you know, 1200 bucks. Yeah, no, I, I, I, for honesty purposes, I’m an investor, but I’ll tell you, I’m getting nothing for this interview.

I just want my audience to be aware of what’s coming and talk about your growth because. Let me back up, I’m going to preface the question, right? You’ve got people coming in and they present a football game in their zip code. They do a description of a high school football game, or they talk about a local fundraiser for the zip code. Then you have people doing things county, city, state level, and then national level. Most of my work is national, but people come in and they present news from all different genres on different topics, and there’s something there for everybody.

What separates that from the mainstream media right now? Well, it’s, it puts the power of the press back in the hands of the people. You tell me one website, that’s mainstream media. You could go to where they have a submit news button where you can contribute to the narrative locally. Dave, go to AZ Central, go to cbs, abc, NBC, Fox, and see if you could post something. You can’t. It’s all controlled by them. You can’t go to any local newspaper, website and submit a damn thing. They’re never going to allow it. Okay, what our platform? You see that green button at the top of the page? It says, submit your news.

Yes. People can, can, you know, be part of the narrative. They can contribute to the narrative locally. They could post opinions, classifieds, events, local things that are happening in the community. So there’s your difference that that is never going to happen with mainstream media. So look, mainstream media is going out of business. They’re irrelevant. Right. What’s going to replace it is going to be a platform, but it’s not going to be a platform like AX. It’s not going to be a platform like TikTok. Do me a favor, Mouse over national news. You see all the different categories there.

Horse racing, boxing, home and garden, food and wine, science and technology, business you have politics, you have fashion, health, food and wine, you have. I think it’s faith. It says style, arts, travel. So the point is, is local people can write local stories about all these different topics. So if your passion is writing about entertainment news, you can do it. Maybe you’re somebody that’s, that’s a food critic or wants to go do movie reviews or restaurant reviews in the area. Maybe that’s what you just love to do, go to a restaurant, write a review. We have the ability to be able to publish that content.

And that content’s only going to appear in either the city or the surrounding, maybe the county that it’s relevant to. So it’s. We are. What we are is a news content distribution platform. A complete people powered press. And we’re putting the power of the press in the hands of the people where it belongs. Dave, I like it. Yeah, I’m gonna tell you right now. I sat next to a friend of mine that was the General Manager for CBS12 a while back and he pulled up, he pulled up your news on the phone and he saw the submit news button and he looked at me and he was genuine and he had this disgust look.

He said, do you allow people to post news to your site? I go, yeah, don’t you? And, and I knew he didn’t. And he said we would never do that. And I go, that’s exactly why you’re going to go out of business, because the people want this. Then the woman next to me, who I had no idea who she was, chimed in and said, he’s right. We want to be able to contribute. We’re tired of listening to your lies. Okay, if you don’t allow us to participate. And I’m like, yes, Listen, I don’t know who this person is.

This is where it’s all headed. It’s all going now with our scale, and here’s why we scale. News is either city, county, market, state, regional or national. There’s just under 20,000 cities in the United States. So I always say 20,000 cities. But if you look at all the different topics, Dave, which there’s got to be, you know, over 20 of them, right? So you could literally, if you had 50 people a city, which we could handle, you’re talking about a million contributors. Yeah, I, I hear you. Okay, now you’ve got an unemployed journalist to sign up to do work as well, too, aren’t you? Yeah.

So on LinkedIn Navigator, there’s roughly 500,000 freelancers. These are the people that are part of the downsizing of the legacy media. And then there’s a couple hundred thousand students. So there’s about 700,000 people there. And we do a little bit of marketing there, and people come on, and so we’ve been able to amass. So I always say Nick Shirley is the proof of our model. We have 5650. Nick Shirley’s right now, Dave, 5006. So I have local news coming in all over the United States on this platform, but the only stuff you’re going to see is the stuff that’s relevant to you, which obviously is going to be the national news and anything local.

Yeah, I’m looking at this right now. Okay. And. And I’m going to become very active. I’m starting a sports talk show. Let me mouse over. You are? Yeah, I am with. With a friend of mine. We used to be scouts in the NBA together, and he was my boss, and then later he was my assistant coach. And we met yesterday for lunch and we said, hey, we gotta do a sports show. I said, great idea. So we actually, we haven’t got a name for it yet, but we’re. But I’m gonna be putting this in and I’ll be doing it in different locations.

So let me ask you a question. It says you can change your location. So I can go here and I can put in a different zip code. So let’s say I’m writing about the University of Colorado basketball team. I can go put Boulder zip code in there and then put the story there. Well, you will do it for you when it comes in. We’ll see it and we can just run it to the state of Colorado. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Do you know remember when we were having dinner, the woman next to you was Amber May, or sitting right across.

Okay, so Amber has her own podcast. She’s went to broadcast journalism school. She’s got her own podcast. It’s all political in nature. Well, one day she said to me, sam, can I write a story about. About the volleyball game at asu? I go, yeah, you’re not limited to what you can do. So she went out and took photos and wrote a story, went to the Arizona State University volleyball game, wrote a story about that. That’s in the sports section in Arizona. Then she went to the Phoenix Open. Is it not the Phoenix tennis. It’s Phoenix Golf Raceway for race seat.

Phoenix Open for Race cars. Yeah. Race seat. Yes. So she wrote a story about that and then she did one, a movie review the other day about, I can’t think of the Running Man. Right. She did a movie review called, called the, about the movie the Running Man. And that story we took national. So we also took the story about the Phoenix Speedway or whatever it is that, that, that’s a national story. So you’re not limited. You could do your show about whatever national topics you’re talking about, but then you could do a local thing alerting residents that I’ll make it up.

You know, some, a mosque is opening up in Phoenix and they’re looking to annex, you know, part of the property so they could. I mean, this is news that needs to be killed. You’re killing me. It’s all about distribution of information. So nobody in Montana really cares about that. They got their own issues. I’m not going to let that stay. I got to tell the audience why I just broke up before we went on air. We have two chip plants 20 miles from me and I live in rural Maricopa County. And this is more towards the direction where Phoenix has grown north.

And the two chip plants have caused my utility rates to go way up. Thank you very much for getting rich at my expense and my community’s expense. But now we find out that Qatar is underwriting the whole thing and they’ve been ceded land in the area. That means that Phoenix has to de. Annex. And by the way, Kerry Lake, Laura Loomer, this, these types are on this message string that I got included in. This is just, this just broke today. Now Qatar is underwriting the whole thing. And I guarantee you there’s not outside government officials, there’s not a hundred people in Phoenix area that know this story.

But they soon will. I’m serious. They soon will. That’s what this whole thing is about. Dave, we’re a citizen powered press. You, you really think that AZ Central is going to publish something on this? No. I mean, you know when they’re going to jump on it, when everybody’s talking about it. Yeah, exactly. They’re not going to break that story. They have no interest in it. It’s got to be we the people. And that’s where everything is headed. It’s headed to a complete citizen powered press. But this has got my attention here because you know, I’ve been all over Turning Point.

Turning Point unveils, competing all American halftime shows, Super Bowl. I think that’s in backlash to the controversial performer that’s there at halftime But I find Turning Point to be just as controversial. Sorry, My public opinion. That’s okay. Let me. Let me scroll down here, because I want to show people something for honest disclosure, and I’m making no money for doing this broadcast. I want you, the public, to be aware that this is somewhere that you need to go. Now, this is complementary to what I already do to my. Excuse me. I don’t know how I got that mess up there on the screen.

I don’t know. Hit your back button and hit refresh. Okay. There we go. Okay. What were you clicking on? What were you clicking on? I don’t know. I accidentally clicked something. I don’t. But long story short here, I. Yeah, you know, I look at. Let me just cut to the chase here. This is the wave of the future. YouTube, Rumble, my podcast services. I’m on just about all the podcasts. And thank you for. We’re in the top 1/2 of 1% in that market. Radio networks. It’s compatible with this format because eventually it’s all citizen journalism that drives it.

If you go to, like, YouTube, there’s all kinds of news and probably about less than 1% of its network news on there. You know, Fox News does some things. Cnn, but not very much. But it’s citizen journalism, and this is the wave. And I think YouTube and Rumble have already shown the utility of citizen journalism. And this just takes it to a whole different level, because this isn’t just videos now. You’ve got print media involved and so forth. And I look at this here. Be a citizen journalist. So you sign up here at the bottom. You go to YourNews.com and scroll down to the bottom.

Okay. You create a login. Be a citizen journalist. First you click the Citizen Journalist. You have to fill out an application. Right. Isn’t that the login? No, no, you do it by clicking. Do it. Do. Be a Citizen Journalist. I’ll show you. Okay. Because it’s been a while since I’ve done this. Okay. Okay. So scroll down a little bit. And there’s. Right there. They have to fill this out. It’s an application. It comes into us. We talk. It basically presets you up. We just hit activate. All right? And then you get. You get an email with instructions.

Then you’ll have to log into your account because that’s what creates it right there. Very good. Okay, now let’s scroll back to here. Okay, Then. Then you can start submitting things once you get a login. Okay. And you do that with your zip code. Or you can Submit a national. You can also be an advertiser. Folks, this is one stop shopping. And eventually down the road, this is going to be all media under one banner. This is just. I don’t know how you’re going to manage this as big as this is going to get. Well, so a friend of mine told me you’re one story away.

Your platform is one story away from becoming famous. So, like, if Nick, if Nick broke that story on our platform, this thing would have blown up, right? Because this is where it’s all headed. So everybody wants to now be a Nick Shirley. So what we do is, you know, we’re expanding and growing at the rate we could grow. And currently we bring in at least a couple thousand articles a week right now, Dave, which is a lot of content, right? But if you broke it out, you know, on average daily, it’s a few hundred stories a day.

It doesn’t work out that way. It’s usually more during the week than on the weekends. But, but, you know, it’s real simple. This is a platform. If I want to double my traffic, I double my content creators. So we’ll go from, you know, from 5, 600 content creators to, you know, 11 or 12,000 in the next few months. And then, then you’ll have more content coming in, which means. And so these are the best problems in the world, but they’re called growing pains. Yeah, I agree. I, I agree. But you caught my imagination on this right away.

In fact, I first heard from you, from our mutual friend Sarah Westall, and Sarah told me about you and we got introduced and I just said, this is too good of an idea to let alone. And, and I gotta tell you, I think everyone one day is gonna gravitate here. So you go, what about people on YouTube? Well, I’m still gonna do YouTube, but I’m gonna put stuff here and it’s complimentary. But what’s going to suffer is not the standing platforms like that in social media. The mainstream media is already dying and this is going to be the death knell.

What are the stats on the death of the mainstream media? Tell the audience? Well, you know, the, the, I will tell you that the numbers that are the most alarming, not for me, for them is. And I haven’t seen them this year because they haven’t come out. But last year, first quarter, they, you know this, they do everything by age demographics. So the demographic between 25 to 54, which is typically the, the age demographic that advertisers want to reach, because when you’re 25 years old, you’re getting married, you’re buying a house, you’re getting a new car, you’re getting insurance, you know, and you’re growing.

Right. And so you’re going to consume a lot of stuff. And that’s who people want to reach after that age. Then it’s more the pharmaceutical steps in. Right. But that age demographic, between 25 and 54, first quarter last year only total on all network television stations combined was 500,000 people viewed in that age. That wasn’t a day. That was over the first quarter, first three months. Three months. That’s not even 200,000amonth. I. Well, I know. And that’s on. That’s on CNN. AB. The biggest was Fox, which I think had 350,000, but like CNN was 77,000. I mean, they were really low.

Maybe it was 50,000. It was horrible. And so total viewership was 500,000 on all networks combined over three months. That is the real number. And the reason I’m bringing that up is because the average age of people watching CNN, NBC, ABC is 73 years old right now. And the younger generation are getting all their information on YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Rumble. Just social media. It could be. It could even be Spotify. It doesn’t matter. It’s just they’re not getting it on mainstream media. That is. That is the death of mainstream media right there. Yeah, I have nothing to hide because I’m not in this for my ego.

Okay, so we had most of the day off yesterday, so our last 48 hours are a little low. But you said not even 200,000amonth for the entire legacy media. Okay, yes. These are my numbers over the last 28 days. 1.4 million 218,000 watch minutes. Eight and a half thousand. 8,500 subscribers came in. Okay. And I guess people know I’m making a little bit of money there, but. But these are my numbers, okay? This is YouTube Citizen Journalism. And thanks to YouTube for making the opportunity available. It’s awesome. So anyway, I just, I wanted to show that.

And I’m not bragging. I’m just saying compare me. I’m kind of an average guy on YouTube in my. In my environment and what I do. But look at my numbers. 1.4 million versus 500,000. And if you take that times three, that’s what, 4.5 million versus how many? 500,000. 500,000. Yeah. Oh, my God. United podcast. That’s their age demographic, right? 25 to 54. They’re consuming it from people like you who or TikTok or Rumble, they’re just not tuning into Fox. They could care less. They don’t get cable news, Dave. The younger generation could care less. You ever seen how many people are on when you’re sitting at a restaurant? They’re on their phones going through TikTok or Instagram, okay? That’s where everything is headed.

It’s all going to digital platforms. And you have literally. Well, I’m going to tell you, YouTube last month had 2.7 billion visits. Amazing. 2.7 billion people. What a success model. That’s the point. So they’re consuming information. It’s just not on Fox or CNN or ABC or NBC. That’s what’s diminishing. So that’s all going to be gone. And what will replace the media won’t be TikTok or X or Instagram. It’ll be a news platform which is a complete citizen powered press which allows information to flow freely without censorship. This is why you brought up the institutional money, right? How do you keep those people out of it where they don’t have controlling interest? I got all that figured out.

Okay, so they’re not going to have any controlling interest. It’s really going to be myself and then it’s going to be the people that we sell it to. So once you bring this to a point where you’ve got a big enough contributor base and your valuations through the roof, then you take it public. But you’ll be selling a small amount of stock. So ultimately, you know, as I’ve said this many times, you guys would all lose your mind if I sold out the BlackRock or Vanguard. I personally believe by the time we hit 20 or 30, 000 content creators, I’ll start getting buyout offers from Musk, from Alphabet, from, you know, from what’s his name, Zuckerberg.

Because once you start having an impact like that, where you have 30, 000 news reporters writing news, you’re not small, you’re big. Sam, you better hadn’t let your middle finger get arthritis with those buyout offers come. Yeah, so I’m not really concerned. Sarah, Sarah Westall and I have this conversation. I hope she listens to this because she called me one day concerned. She goes, you know, Sam, she goes, everything we touch, we end up getting screwed with. And I’m like, sarah, what we’re doing is inevitable. She goes, I know. I don’t believe you’re going to lose at all.

She says, you’re going to win this thing. She goes, how do we know you’re not going to sell out to, to these, you know, big institutions? And I said, okay, well, let’s think about that. Sarah, you’re smart in finance. What would I get more? She is, she’s very smart with this stuff. I said, would I get more money if I sold it to an individual or would I get more money if I allowed the public to buy it via public offering? She goes, way more money with a public offering. I go, then there you have it, I’m a whore.

No, no, that’s because what’ll happen is the way our product is valued is it’s based on how many content creators we have. Incidentally, so is rumble, so is YouTube, so is TikTok, so is Instagram, so is Facebook. Every platform is valued based on how many content creators you have. You and I had this conversation before. Content platforms like Facebook and X. Everybody can have an account, but very few people do what you do. So you’re going to have more of a value than somebody that’s on X. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, because you’re the, because you’re the draw.

That’s just how it works. So that number we already know the value is between 10 and 12,000 per content creator on average. So if we had 50,000 content creators, this platform would have a value of between 5 and 600 million. So this is the scale you’re talking about. Right? And then the way it works is when we get ready to go public, you’re going to have investment banks talking to people and they’re going to say, well, how many, how many content creators do they have? 50,000. Well, how many content creators can they have? Well, you talk in the United States or globally, right? They’re going to go, wait a minute, global.

Oh, yeah, this is a global play. Well, but just for the United states. Well, there’s 20,000 cities. So they figured you could have 50 people a city, which is not unreasonable. Certainly some people, cities are going to need less than others, but on average, let’s say of about 50 a city. So you’re talking a million potential content creators. And then they’re going to go, and they’re only 5% of the way there. This is something that will public will consume and eat up and they’ll pay up for it. And that’s why. So the public way is the way for me to go.

Not because you make more money, which I’m certainly a capitalist, I’m always interested in. It’s really because you want the people to own this, not stock. You don’t want this to be owned by Zuckerberg. That would be a massive mistake. You know, one of the things is I contemplate my final retirement. I’ve had this discussion with family members what takes my place because, you know, I’ve got something built and I don’t know that I just want to let it die. Okay. Have you asked yourself the same question about your news down the road? Well, yeah, I think about it quite a bit, you know, so for right now, you know, the focus is to get this thing properly capitalized, to scale it up and then get it public.

There’s going to have to be things we put in place that, where the culture cannot be changed. And I’ll really start exploring that stuff when we get to that place. But right now we’re not there. Yeah, I’m in the same position and I’m thinking I’m kind of a one person operation. I don’t see it being a bureau as a replacement. Maybe it’ll be one to one or two to one, I don’t know. But you know, we, we’ve had these discussions, you know, among family members because, you know, I have family members that help me with the production and everything and the finance.

So it’s something I, I just think that I want this to be here long term. Which is why I asked you the question because your, yours is the news model. Now, I will say this is, is precautionary. Pam Bondi’s comment. Well, there’s free speech and then there’s hate speech. You can’t be anti Semitic and talking about laws that could be coming. And I’m thinking, wait a minute. Because the Zionists right now are saying if you criticize Netanyahu’s foreign war imperialistic policies, you’re anti Semitic. No, you’re not. You’re anti political to a cause or a political action.

You’re not anti semitic. But they’re trying to confuse the two. And I think you might be in a race against time, against censorship that could be coming. But if we attract enough people to your model and you’ve got so many people committed to free speech, okay, they can pass all the laws they want. They’re going to fall on deaf ears. They can’t process nobody. I mean, what are they going to do? They’re going to build a prison around the country and call it jail? I mean, this is ridiculous. Yeah, so I, I mean, we’ll see where that plays out.

You know, right now the people need this product. And I’ve told you before, you know, there’s There’s a couple ways to, you know, to get out of the mess we’re in. And certainly the media has been the reason we’re in the mess we’re in today because they. If they were reporting the truth on all this stuff, Dave, none of this stuff would have ever happened. If they would have reported the truth on the NGOs, even if no politicians would have went to prison, they would have shut it all down because they would have shed light on it.

The thing is, the media is in on it. They have to be. They are. And maybe it’s. And so. So all that’s going to go away. And what’s going to happen is you’re going to have a platform like this that becomes the next mainstream media. That’s why I keep telling you, if you want to solve the problem outside of a civil war, you need to control them. Press. Well, we’re not controlling it. We’re allowing free speech to happen. You know, every story, no matter what it is, happens somewhere, right? It’s local somewhere. But you’ve got these local news reporters that are going to uncover crimes.

You know how many people are working for some mayor or some city councilman somewhere in America that have dirt on these people, that if they took it to the media, they wouldn’t. They wouldn’t publish it or wouldn’t air it. And all of a sudden, as we start to become known that this is the place where you can. You can get this information out, all the light’s going to start to be shed on all this. Yeah, totally. I could not. There’s one other thing I want to bring up. When people invest in this, okay? There’s a really good chance that as this grows, the return on investment is going to be pretty darn good.

In other words, people are going to make money from being investors. Do you agree with that? This is Google Big. It really is. It. I’m just. I’m just telling you flat out that if we win here, and there’s no reason why we won’t, the return on this investment. Well, look, here’s what I’m going to tell you. You know what Rumble’s market cap is right now? Roughly two, two and a half billion. Okay? I’ve seen it as high as four bounces between two and three billion, right? So let’s say it’s two and a half billion. Do you know how I’ve told you this? You know how many content creators they have? It’s public information.

250,000. They call them channels. So everybody On Rumble, this is how they value Rumble. This is the market. They’re worth 10,000 a pop right now because all you got to do is take a quarter million into 202 and a half billion dollars and it’s 10,000 a pop. So they’re worth two and a half billion dollars on a quarter of a million content creators. Now, the reason I’m telling you this is we’re selling stock at a $20 million valuation, which means we value the company at 20 million, but we’re only selling a million. That’s the crumbs. Normally, people would sell 5 million.

Much larger numbers. Well, by the time we reach a quarter million people, and we will, we’ll have a value of two and a half or $3 billion. You see what I mean? So just do the math. From 20 million to 2 billion. That’s your difference. And there’s no difference between my platform and Rumble. And I don’t mean that. As you know, we’re different products. But from the content creator standpoint, there’s less people that that report news than consume news. So there’s a different value to them. Some people are bigger than others. You know, your numbers are massive.

There’s some people I have on my platform, they get three people a day looking at their show. Right? But it’s still the same average. You might be you. Your real number might be worth a hundred thousand, but somebody else might be worth 10 bucks. But it’s an average is what I’m getting at. So the value to this, if you want to know, when do you sell your stock? Once we go public. How many content creators do we have? Where do you want to ride it? We’re not even close to the peak. Oh, it’d be like me right now selling my silver, because silver is going to explode.

I know it got hoarded and it’s dropped a little bit, but it’s going to explode because of the shortage. Okay, now’s not the time. Now is not the time to unload this. You know, Sam, I was an early investor in this. Not the earliest, but an early investor. And my wife has an incredible financial background. She was in charge of a company that she managed tens of millions of dollars a year. Okay, so she knows finance inside now. And I told her about this opportunity. I said, you know, I interviewed Sam, Sarah introduced me to him, and I said, this is really good stuff.

And she agreed. And she. We looked at the offering that you have to be an investor, and she said, is tomorrow too late? And so. So that’s that’s how we looked at it. And I’m telling people out here in my audience this is helping grow truth in America. And if you’re an America first person, this is where you want to be news wise and I’m not. This isn’t the exclusion of other social media. It’s the exclusion of the mainstream media that lies to the their teeth every single day. And then down the road you’re going to make some money on this because this thing’s going to grow exponentially.

So I encourage everyone to sign up for this, visit this, be a reporter, you go, I can’t write. Go to your son’s football game and put something up on your zip code. Someone’s going to find it interesting and then become an investor. And so Sam, what’s the minimum investment to get started? $200. I’m more interested because I’m going to tell you something, we have roughly maybe 400 investors, but you have to get to 3,000 before you go public, which is fine, right? Because I’m doing a second offering after this one. As we roll this one up, you’ll get more and more and as you really, as you really start to pick up steam, they’ll really start to come in, the bigger you get.

But those people are also going to pay a much higher number. So you know, we’re going to be doing this for a while as we get to 3,000. Once you get 3,000 then you can take it public. So we’ll get there. Now this is the wave of the future. And you know, I gotta tell you, you said, Sarah knows money, she does business changers, she taught at the University of Minnesota. And she called me about you, she goes, do you know about Sam Anthony and your news? I said no, honestly I haven’t heard of it. And so we went and looked at it and she said this is the real deal.

And she was excited and she was right on the money and she knows business. And then she introduced us, that’s how we got started together. But I will tell you folks, this isn’t a once in a lifetime opportunity. But your best deal to be an investor is the earlier you get in. At least that’s how I perceive definitely is, you know, the normally like for all those people that miss Google, miss Facebook, missed ebay, missed Amazon, right? The only part of the Internet hasn’t been solved is the local news piece. This is it. This is so in your face.

Because it’s not like I’m telling you, you know, I think there’s going to be Citizen journalists. I mean, this is already happening. It’s already. It’s already down the road. This is where it’s all going. You don’t have to, you know, have a crystal ball to figure all this stuff out. So this is the next mainstream media, and we need people to own the stock. I’m trying. I don’t care if it’s $200 or 200 grand, it doesn’t matter. We need people to own this. We need to be able to scale it up. We need to be able to take it public.

And this is the way you save the country. You can you control the press or you own the next mainstream media, which allows free speech to happen without censorship. That’s how you do it. Now, I think that’s tremendous. And I’ll be celebrating the day that mainstream media is six feet under. No, I don’t mean the people. I’m just talking about the industry. That’s all I’m saying. They’re almost there now. And, you know, I got relatives, they watch Fox News religiously. And here’s how disinfo works. You get 90% pretty good facts, and some of it’s stunning. And the other 10% is propaganda.

They want to lead you down the wrong road, and then they direct your attention away from important stuff. So, you know, it’s funny. I’ve noticed that Fox News is concentrating on the riots and not the fraud. I don’t think that’s an accident. And I’ll tell you it’s because who’s involved in the fraud? I won’t say it here, but it’s who’s involved in the fraud and who they’re covering up for. So that’s. I’m interested to know that. Oh, but when we click off here, I’ll share with you anyway.
