I think, given Joe Rogan's popularity these days, he is the mainstream.
- telotortium 3y agoNo, Joe Rogan (and most alt media) responds to the NYT, while the NYT doesn't respond to Joe Rogan except to smear him. That is the test of whether a media source is mainstream, or at least respectable - does the NYT cite it seriously or ignore it except to denigrate it?
