<p>Joe Rogan slammed legacy media for its &#8220;sh***y format&#8221; and said &#8220;it&#8217;s way less popular&#8221; than it&#8217;s ever been in history, naming CNN and evening news.</p>
<p>During Spotify&#8217;s &#8220;The Joe Rogan Experience&#8221; <a href="https://open.spotify.com/episode/177plfcE2xWKrOJUfnn13S?si=fvpV2ozeTgSNghfTMCkO8g">podcast</a> on Saturday, the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/joe-rogan">podcast host</a> was speaking with comedian <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/louis-ck">Louis C.K.</a> about the media&#8217;s coverage of gruesome stories like the school shooting at Sandy Hook and 9-11, as the two agreed the media has always done this, calling it &#8220;obscene.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s messed up. It&#8217;s obscene and it&#8217;s normal. And that&#8217;s what they operate under. That&#8217;s their currency,&#8221; <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/joe-rogan-has-change-of-heart-explains-why-will-smith-has-to-be-forgiven-after-chris-rock-slap">Rogan</a> replied, noting that with the media &#8220;there&#8217;s a diffusion of responsibility when you work for a large corporation.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s a job that has to get done,&#8221; he added, noting the media&#8217;s response.</p>
<p>C.K. recalled being in the Fox News studio once, sitting in the control room when President Barack Obama was &#8220;making a speech&#8221; and he claimed no one was listening to the speech on any of the cameras in the room, yet commented on it afterward.</p>
<p>He said it happens at MSNBC and CNN too, &#8220;they&#8217;re not thinking about anything. They already know their reaction and they gotta come in with it really quick&#8221; because it&#8217;s got to get in people&#8217;s phones before another news outlet. &#8220;It&#8217;s entertainment.&#8221;</p>
<p><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/fing-bravo-joe-rogan-takes-swipe-at-biden-administration-over-talk-about-gas-stove-ban">Rogan</a> agreed and said it&#8217;s &#8220;entertainment disguised as news for minimally engaged, casual viewers.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Because it&#8217;s not really people that are completely locked in for the most part,&#8221; the host explained. &#8220;Most people are just flipping through the channels and you know something outrageous &#8230; [hearing a reporter criticizing someone as bad for America.] But if you don&#8217;t say that they aren&#8217;t going to pay attention.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Then they [corporate media] is going to lose out on that Pfizer dollars that&#8217;s going to come through in the ad break,&#8221; he added. Because of the format, it&#8217;s just a trick to get you to watch a commercial for Colgate.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/wants-crime-to-flourish-joe-rogan-slams-soros-as-an-evil-villain-in-superhero-movie">Rogan</a> told his guest that corporate media &#8220;is way less popular than it&#8217;s ever been in human history. Like in the history of news, the evening news, CNN, those things, are less popular than they have ever been.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;And it&#8217;s because people are tired of it,&#8221; the podcast host shared. &#8220;It&#8217;s a sh***y format and in comparison to long-form discussions, independent interview shows &#8230; podcasts where people have nuanced perspectives. If you really want to understand what&#8217;s going on in the world, complicated issues, invasion of Ukraine by Russia, you need people to break it down to you. They aren&#8217;t going to get it in five minutes.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;You are going to get &#8216;they hate us for our freedom,&#8221; he added. &#8220;That&#8217;s what you are going to get in five minutes. You are going to get nonsense talking points.&#8221;</p>
