Dana White: ‘Mainstream Media Is Dead – Podcasts Are the Truth Now’
Dana White emphasizes podcasts’ raw honesty as a stark contrast to mainstream media’s decline.
“The mainstream media… as far as I’m concerned, is dead. It doesn’t exist anymore… all of them have subscribers who want to hear what they have to tell them. Nobody is telling the truth anymore.
If you want to hear the truth, or as close to the truth, podcasting is where it’s at now, where you sit down one on one… these intimate conversations with somebody who doesn’t have an agenda, who isn’t trying to hit you with that gotcha moment, and then cut it up and edit it and make it look like somebody said something else.”

Pavel Durov, Telegram's CEO, is known as "the Russian Mark Zuckerberg," for co-founding VKontakte, which is Russian for "in touch," a Facebook imitator that became the country's most popular social networking site. Also in the latest update is the ability for users to create a unique @username from the Settings page, providing others with an easy way to contact them via Search or their t.me/username link without sharing their phone number. Artem Kliuchnikov and his family fled Ukraine just days before the Russian invasion. The account, "War on Fakes," was created on February 24, the same day Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a "special military operation" and troops began invading Ukraine. The page is rife with disinformation, according to The Atlantic Council's Digital Forensic Research Lab, which studies digital extremism and published a report examining the channel. Some people used the platform to organize ahead of the storming of the U.S. Capitol in January 2021, and last month Senator Mark Warner sent a letter to Durov urging him to curb Russian information operations on Telegram.
