OK, then since the government just utilizes third party private media to do their bidding then to reinstate this would make no difference would it? They don’t directly pay them or dictate where it can be proven now...
I think you are right. If the government’s agents (e.g. George Stephanopoulos) get lead roles, and government advertising affects the general tone of reporting, there is no way to really stop it. In like manner, Pfizer and MOderna take out SO MUCH advertising time on television that it would be fiscal insanity to scrutinize their work objectively.
