Perhaps it could generate revenue through fees and eliminate advertisements. This allows commercial free news without annoying distraction while allowing more time for sustained discussion and eliminates the whole boycott calls by left wingers.

“revenue through fees and eliminate advertisements”
That’s being tried on the internet and could yield fruit as as more and more people turn to the internet for video news and entertainment.
i can’t see it working on cable or over-the-air media [mass media].

There is a niche market for advertisers on conservative media- new products and services for example.
It doesn’t come close to the market for ‘dumb sluts’ that media currently provides to their advertisers. That puts a limit on the ‘up side’ of the profits.
