They don’t need the help. Local media is usually extremely left wing.

Not!

This is merely outright recognition that old-time corporate media is state-run media. They are completely beholden to government.

They are the enemy.

Biden's tax breaks for local media an effort to turn them into ‘versions of leftist NPR or PBS,’ critic says

They already are versions of leftist NPR and PBS. And much worse.
They don't need to pay them for what they are getting free anyways.

“This is the IRS. Our media fact-checking department received a complaint about your story that was critical of President Biden. We have determined that your newspaper is fake news and you have 10 days to recant and denounce your story or else face penalties and fines.”

This is your third post on the same Dementia Joe attempt to bribe the corrupt, decadent fake news media for even more favorable covering.
All that fawning media covering of Joe Stolen hasn't stopped Pedo Joe's numbers from collapsing has it?
Nor did it stop the Dems from getting clobbered in Virginia m
Chuckle.

As commie takeovers go this one's pretty sophisticated.

What a waste of money. They already are leftist propaganda machines.
Even here in CO tourist town.

Seems to me this doesn’t pass muster. Sorta like the vax mandate.

We’re looking at this the wrong way. This could be a real coup. I saw some draft language and it looks like the limitations are not content based. Absent getting what looks to be readily available insurance there is nothing preventing anyone from doing this.

Imagine for a moment Lazmataz local news. Subsidized courtesy of Brandon.
