    Funny story that exemplifies what is wrong with right wing media.

    Rogan apparently fell for an edited youtube video that claimed it was Biden, not Trump, who made the comment about "not enough airports" during the revolutionary war. Said it was proof of Biden's mental decline and that the media was gaslighting voters because they are afraid of Trump. Made a big deal about it.

    Later in the show, he got fact checked, then suddenly, it wasn't a big deal anymore ... Once they realized it was Trump that said it, they changed their tune on how bad it was, but still blamed the media ... LOL

    “Oh, OK,” Rogan said. “So he ####ed up.”

    “You can tell he, like, messed up his words,” Nickal said. “But that’s the thing about media these days, it’s like, you gotta look into it.”

    Just a small foretaste of what Artificial Intelligence (fake videos etc.) is going to do to society. We will never know what to believe anymore, evening on the evening news. (Imagine Walter Cronkite signing off with, "That's not the way it is.")

    That steakface is a prime example of what’s wrong with this country.

    That is a funny story, but I don’t see it as an indictment of right wing media. Just seems to be an example of bias, which infects us all. This one seems to be an example of fundamental attribution error.

    He was a moderately talented tv comedian. I have tried to watch his podcast and he is an idiot. How can anyone waste time on this.

    His podcast actually used to be pretty good. Rogan had experts on and he kept an open mind about things and all and all it was pretty good. But I think he convinced himself being a contrarian on everything was the same as being open minded. And now he just leans into it. Everything is a conspiracy. Cant trust anyone or anything. Stopped listening a while ago.

    I must admit that I have only watched excerpts and they have been fairly recent.

    I can only take it in short clips these days, and only if the guest is good and and it's an interesting topic.

    It's seems like he used to push back on some of the crazy assertions made on his show, but now it's like he will go along with anything.

    We seem to have achieved utter confusion, complete unreliability in our news sources, and absolute news blindness just fine without AI.

    Don't think AI can #$%$@ up any worse. Maybe somehow improve things even?

    So is Biden, but at least Rogan is just an entertainer.

    The irony of calling Biden an idiot in a thread ultimately about Trump thinking the Revolutionary War had airports is thick. Real thick.

    Nah. Airports instead of ramparts (from the star spangled banner) is a gaff.

    Being a senile, clueless, empty suit, bumbling puppett buffoon, indicates a state of being, independent of the one anecdotal gaff referenced in the OP

    Nah, bro.

    He said "It rammed the ramparts. It took over the airports."

    In no way did he confuse ramparts for airports.

    Still but a gaff vs a braindead puppett that has to be managed, handled with mittens, hidden from the public, protected from the media, had cover run for him by the MSM and our alphabet intel orgs....

    Dude walks blindly and directionless everytime he walks away from the podium, needs permission to a speak, needs someone to guide him by his frail hand to where he's supposed to go...

    He'd be a laughing stock at the local nursing home without ppl covering for his incapacity...

    It’s more just a sign of abject stupidity and a complete lack of understanding of history than a gaffe. But his minions will make every excuse.
