UFC President Dana White talked compared traditional media and politicians in a negative light and said they are both two things 'nobody trusts.'
Dana White had fiery words for the media and politicians following UFC 309, which saw President-elect Donald Trump and some of his cabinet nominees attend on Saturday night. White declared traditional media 'dead,' and it has the same problem as politicians these days – lack of trust.
’ve had this philosophy for the last five years that traditional media is dead, and it doesn’t hold the influence that it used to hold,' he said, via MMA Fighting. 'The two most hated people in this world are the media and politicians. Nobody trusts them. Nobody believes them. 'The true influence right now is with these kids on the internet. They’re called influencers. So, I’ve been creating relationships with these people for the last four or five years.
He thanked White and UFC fans for their support in social media posts. Follow Fox News Digital’s sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.
