Childcare, health insurance, livable wages, we are privileged to be able to do this work and to be as informed as we are. So we have an obligation to also be resources. But I also understand, not everybody. If you're working two, three jobs, you can't pay attention and watch, you know, 24-hour cable news. Five kids take care, you worry about school and a house. Yes. And if you're not working at all, you really don't. Right, right. Or even people that are unhoused, it doesn't resonate. (12:32–12:37)

CLAIM

Asserts that working multiple jobs limits the ability to stay informed via 24-hour news.
