One that certainly started with the clipping mania last month, but feels larger than that.

And, specifically, they do not understand that most of what they see on their feeds is being made by people who are not making much money from it. Here’s a data point to back that up. In an episode of <i>The New York Times</i>’ <i>Popcast </i>(who do get paid real salaries to make content), the comedian Druski said that he <a class="link" href="https://elink835.www.garbageday.email/ss/c/u001.Qr6Ovh5taOidqUa5P-dRpayqJJO4EEn_ZHoWp5l0deEQuNUzXy8uRcDkCSk0tmqg9b1UIR1O-3ST0GXP6NeTP_9pMUbRmO3__uFMFY9EVgkEFFASFoCwzUcP_qOdpiQiHmt4IC-XsASSCKomcxrQj0meh_3FxH6EaRMOpj_BWj8Ls6UOp3nasR-Zy1AaTNOAQqv-53D352AmYm-hwZ04QM02KkoZIu-ZqKaZgwGE3JUyPcSLL17bQUiTeecD0gPS8oP3RjspTtuRBwsn0Jml6HJQbov6yVoopyQjvcWD34I/4qj/xlxZyl8-QR-tPNj_chgSBQ/h14/h001.QFbzrMn1fCnGGfaWnvqQH1ePnY3L2XNUXDxtfFlJ3bM" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"><span>recently spent</span></a> $100,000 on his Instagram skit about <a class="link" href="https://elink835.www.garbageday.email/ss/c/u001.Qr6Ovh5taOidqUa5P-dRpQYE8RIusqUvBbezVOx50Xq2VFl4CbNmhPYHOa9TUAj5hMfsOtBARhhSWx0bbUJdD_Vozq3qhITa9ZEWTHO6I6WkFSPKpyyxCmy23fg3wugQ8brBnR5U80PePqqa74mJ4M9rktbWsJWzb9dVS21xLYsUzUK0QjT6yubmOfYW94b5ZHUkmaRH4GLvEF4TU771VerREKK-0_A9PgjjTwVWV69LXuuEPb_Et85YYZBywYlikM41-3TkeSt4UYEj9sfMjQiKk8hOUZlhqQ902Ei7dgw/4qj/xlxZyl8-QR-tPNj_chgSBQ/h15/h001.6TrTBkjf5hjlbUAE3mjnQbQMgnqRQ3tyHyFXMnKgTYI" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"><span>church pastors</span></a> and didn’t make that money back from the video’s performance on social.

Which means all four kinds of videos are held to the same standard, though not how you might think. Instead of users expecting everything on their feeds to be professional, audiences have kind of settled into a weird middle ground where they want videos to feel like a friend with perfect media training casually FaceTiming them from a professional newsroom. A tough balancing act to keep up, for sure. </p></td></tr><tr><td class="dd" align="left" style="padding:0px 15px;text-align:left;word-break:break-word;"><p style="mso-line-height-alt:150.0%;"> And my last assumption is that all of this has reached a point where the average user has begun treating their feeds like television, but a version of television that feels worse in ways they can’t totally explain.
