I am saying exactly that. If you could get inside the books of the major “news” companies, they would barely make money, if at all. They are hobby horses for the larger corporations and CEOs to wave their SJW creds around.

In the 1830s, Martin Van Buren, founder of the Democratic Party, created the first true “news” papers. But they didn’t print “news” at all. They were 100% propaganda organs for Andrew Jackson and the DemoKKKrat Party. One academic study concluded that 80% of ALL papers in America were fully owned by one of the parties and made NO money at all on subscriptions.

That’s again where we are. How else do you explain that Fox, which in theory can command HALF the political viewing audience, is moving to the LEFT???? It has nothing to do with revenues, and everything to do with the Murdoch boys’ leftward SJW leanings. See some of the data here:

How would you explain CNN, with 100,000 viewers (!!) stays in business? Glenn Beck at his peak had 3.5 MILLION.

So reconsider all (including Fox) of the “news” organizations as propaganda fronts for the DNC ultimately back-channel funded to keep them alive.

There is another factor that will be destroying the fake news business at a faster rate, and that is Cable Cutting.

2017 has been a disaster for Pay TV. See the chart below:

The reality is over 1 million pay tv customers have cut their Pay TV cable in the first quarter 0f 2017. People don't use Sling or Direct TV now unless they cut their cable. We cut our Comcast Cable and now use Sling and Amazon Fire TV, as an example. Comcast had two price increases this year and our monthly bill would have been about $275/mo. We watched about 5-6 channels and paid for crap we never used.

A younger relative, who is monitoring this massive swing of cable cutting, estimates over 4 million homes will cut their cable in 2017. He said to calculate the $ loss, the average pay tv that was cut was costing $150 per month to $250. Which is why Comcast and other pay tv providers are increasing their monthly bills so fast.

I posted yesterday, in the past week I had 3 people ask me how to cut their cable and what they needed to buy to get out of their pay tv. All are Comcast customers who got hit with the two price increases this year. They will not be paying Comcast anymore by the end of this month.

So far everyone we know who has cut their Cable are conservatives, They don't watch Faux anymore and had stopped watching ABCNNBCBS's fake news for years with the exception of one couple. They still watch Faux and Faux business. I recommended You Tube tv for them as they live in an area where they can get it. They can get free on Air tv for their kids. They are saving over $150/month after cutting their Comcast cable and going to a local internet service where they live. Their, You tube costs about $40 per month.

Your friend Bannon will probably start a conservative news channel and will stream it. That way, he will not have to deal with the FCC and the left wingers in DC, who hate him.

Any Trump voter/supporter, who doesn't cut their cable and stop watching Faux, is supporting our enemies who want to destroy Trump and then us. Those who won't cut their cable probably subscribe to Newsweek, Slime, Ny Slimes and the Compost.
