Transcript

This message is sponsored by The New York Times. On MAGA Mondays this week, I talked to Andrew Egger and Will Sommer about the declining audience share across the board amongst MAGA media figures. But it was The New York Times' Stuart Thompson who actually tracked all of those viewership figures and analyzed years of audience data to report out that development. Our commentary and analysis is as only good as the fact-based reporting that it's built on. Every day I'm reading a range of fact-based sources to understand what's actually happening before I ever sit down and hit that record button. That includes The New York Times, as well as the Wall Street Journal, Politico, and some of my favorite reporters on Substack, including our own Substack, who have deep expertise on their beats. Stuart's piece in the Times is the kind of reporting that takes time, takes sourcing, takes real journalistic work to uncover. That's just one example of the result of fact-based reporting. And now you get to decide what to think. Without fact-based reporting like this, the rest of us are just guessing.
