you can easily google who own the us news media.
Roughly 15 billionaires owning roughly 95% of news outlets. None of that is conspiracy. Some are more center leaning. Some are in favour of more taxation. None of them staunch socialist unless you can be both a hardcore lefty and a billionaire capitalist.

So regardless of what theories you hold about the political slant of particular media (and we’ll have to agree to disagree on everything other than the fact that if you go high enough, all media is controlled by the same few parent companies, that I agree with), this political slant is a representation of the majority of their employees, not just their CEO | |||

Have you ever worked anywhere before? Do you do what is right or what the owner wants you to do? The ones who stay tend to follow what you said but why, is important. Most leftists don't really see ourselves represented in media. We read certain stories that are interesting, we value investigative journalism yet we don't have a go to news outlet. Most of the people I know cross examine a story using different outlets but also, a lot of outlets just use AP. The Associated Press is pretty unbias because they merely report facts and that is some useless shitty journalism but you can count on it to be factual. two deaths. a bombing in lebanon. Boring but factual. Let's face it though, what we could agree on is that most people don't read news articles and more importantly, they don't read it to be informed, just to confirm what they already know. Like CNN is supposed to be lefty news yet we dub it conservative news network. Is it so wild to believe that fox news need cnn yet cnn does not need fox news? You mentioned something about the left needing the right. If you can believe that, believe that some rich folk who has a shitty agenda to sell has a high incentive to prop up a left wing news media. You think republicans in the USA care about the people the worker? Just look at the policy. Politics is not about Biden, or 45th, it's about the policy they enact and what it leaves behind. Did Mexico pay for the wall? Is it even built? Are all the problems he promised to fix in three days fixed? Or is this country more divided than ever before? Meanwhile you have a president advocating for union, trying to raise the minimum wage for all and who the fuck cares about the guy, we care about the policies. Which again, is more like how to safely build a park or how high these buildings should be or should there be a police force and NOT the latest scandal over what some politicians you don't like said. Again, this is a post about cancel culture because you mongrels keep complaining about when it'S a dr seuss book or when a potato toy is concerned but not when an elected official speaking her mind gets it. Regardless of spectrum, you say, you should not abide by this shit. Stand up. Condone her. Keep saying that she should not stray from the republican party if you want but freedom of speech is important and you cannot cry about cancel culture one way and celebrate it another way. Grow up.

Can confirmed. Was there. Was also a truther about the election the whole four years of 45th's presidency. It was all over the news. Here is the evidence: COMPELLING IS IT NOT? P.S: Trump talking about Obama's birth certificate 8 years in, that's a political witch hunt. Nobody even complained in 2016 about election fraud. No evidence of that on google. You made that up you shitty liar. We're like a whole 9 months after the election and you guys still deny reality and if you can find an equivalent of that before, turn it in like you did your proof of election fraud. lol

Politics are different than releasing a game you don’t think is finished. People see politics as a battle of ideologies, some even see it as good vs evil (I personally don’t, but many do). Just like you aren’t purposefully surrounding yourself with mostly conservative friends (and if you are, it’s because you have no choice, they’re all that you know), and going to conservative rallies, you aren’t going to go get a job at Fox News pushing bullshit that you don’t agree with ideologically https://www.nytimes.com/2021/04/30/t...ignations.html | |||
