This is a pretty good explanation of what has happened.
The Media become more socialist and concentrated under Democratic controls and regulations of the FCC.
Google, Facebook, and Twitter are working hard to do an Internet version of the wire services.
The framers understood and feared government control of the media.
The did not foresee an ideology seizing the media, and the media controlling the government.
Thats the issue. And how do you solve it without being accused of censorship? People say, well, let the free matkyet take it’s course rather than government intervention. Its been 30-40 years and that hasn’t happened. If anything they’ve consolidated power and now internet/ social media is joining the monopoly of the left.
This makes sense. Thomas Jefferson complained bitterly about the press in his time. But this is much worse.
Facebook and search engine control over what we see is hurting the People’s ability to make key decisions.
Something must be done. Even the CEO of Apple is asking for regulation. It will happen.
They did not foresee an ideology seizing the media, and the media controlling the government.
This is the salient point of this debate.
