Speaker 1: I'm always asking questions, and the reason why is because
the fund begins when you start researching for answers, such
as Area fifty one in Nevada, a well known place,
right do people hang out there? Twenty four to seven? Plus?
How has streaming changed our local cable companies? My name
is Errol. I'm a daily writer, a silent wolf. That
means I stand on the sidelines into nothing but watch, listen, study,
than activate. I happen to call it the daily Mess,
a chronological walk through in everyday world. Yeah, it's my
morning pages. As a receiver of thoughts and ideas, we
as people tend to throw things to the side because
we're going to deal with it later. Yeah, not really.
When a subject derives inside of me, I know it's
time to dig in. It's still keeping that daily journal,
but by doing the research, the picture becomes clearer. This
is the daily Mess. For decades, Area fifty one has
been that one place people flock to to get a
view or a better understanding of space aliens right here
on Earth? Do people hang out at Area fifty one
twenty four to seven? The answer is no, people don't
hang out there. It's a highly secured and restricted military
facility located in the Nevada Desert. Area fifty one is
off limits to the public at all times. It's protected
by signs, motion detectors, and armed guards. Tourists and curious
visitors have driven down the Extraterrestrial Highway, but they don't
stay for too long. It's more of a photo op
than gone. In twenty nineteen, a viral joke called storm
Area fifty one brought people together, but it turned out
to be more of a LoveFest than a protest. Well,
what about the military? Do they stay at this famous
place on Earth? The answer is yes. Military and government
personnel work there around the clock. Real people do not,
mainly because there's nowhere to really hang. The purpose of
Area fifty one is to test and develop experimental aircraft.
The UFO sidings that so many people talk about, it's
probably the US military testing new things out. Hey, coming
up next. We're all streaming, but what is it doing
to our local cable companies? Hey, thanks for coming back
to the daily Mess. It's no secret anything within the
definition of broadcasting is going through huge changes due to
digital streaming. I was shocked to hear about how hard
it's been on cable companies many because streaming in your
home doesn't just happen on its own. We need the
power of the Internet, which the cable company is providing,
and the cost of that is pretty high right now.
But when you pull the lens back, Cable companies are
currently facing a struggle due to streaming services. Cable TV
use is expected to drop again this year to only
thirty five percent. In twenty twenty three, cable companies lost
five point nine million subscribers. This means AD revenues are down.
It'll be twenty billion dollars below normal by twenty twenty seven.
This means cable channels are not providing original programming. They're
relying on reruns to draw people to their flat screen.
This has led to bundling. We've all seen it. Disney
and Hulu together, they're hooking up, just like radio and
the US government. Restructuring is the only way to stay
above water. I'm Marrow, and that's the daily mess.
