“don’t spend it on the internet.”

Would have to disagree with you. The voters, ages 18-40, spend most of their time on the internet. Very seldom do they read papers or other print media. Mostly watch YouTube instead of cable TV.

Democrats advertise heavily on YouTube; I got sick of seeing their ads constantly in the last election. Young voters will be seeing them constantly too for 2020 election.

And I would disagree with you.

I'm quite aware of the amount of advertising on websites such ad YouTube and Facebook and Google.

FACT and reality are different. People don't click on advertising, and most advertising is now "in-your-face" or intrusive. Meaning that, they are posted on top of the pages that people really click to see and read and hear. And most people don't tolerate and just wait for the ad to complete, and most just click it off and continue to their content. When I've gone to Youtube, the first thing that appears is advertising, which I don't pay attention to or I click it off after about 4 seconds. Compare that to TV and radio advertising, which can't be clicked away from, other than going for snacks.

The hundred million or more that would go to Facebook and/or Twitter and/or Google, could be better spent on radio and TV and perhaps in the print media.
