They’re trying to set up a federal bailout of Establishment media.
Most Americans believe that you can’t believe anything coming out of this country’s “news” rooms these days. It’s all fake news given to them by the Dung Beetle Party for distribution to the ignorant.
The “News” business hasn’t produced “news” in years.
It’s 100% propaganda now - on both sides. Even Fox is CNN wannabe…
Billionaires can only write off so much of a loss, these figures who went and scouped up all these companies in a failed bid to control narratives have had enough.
“But not so anymore, as our economy has been surprisingly strong of late.”
What?
Tell enough lies, and even some of the gullible will figure out the lies.
A rule of thumb in business: It takes "x" expenditure of funds to bring in a customer, but many multiples of "x" expenditure to try to bring back a pissed-off customer.
Walk away. It looks tiny, when one does it. It is a huge effect when many do it.
They miss the good old days of monopoly control of the news when people had no alternatives to the big dailies, AP and UPI, ABC, CBS and NBC.
Journalism today is TOTAL PROPAGANDA and people are waking up to this fact.
All of these worthless lib-propaganda spewing rags should die, sooner rather than later. Couldn’t happen to a more deserving hive of scumbags and liars.
It is not the entire news business that is cratering.
News on the right is doing well, even expanding.
The “News” business is cratering because what they are selling isn’t news, it’s leftwing propaganda.
Like late night “comedians” who now pitch “political comedy” many news casters have become political pawns and their readers and watchers are fleeing.
I don’t watch network MSM news anymore. I don’t even listen to local drive-time news because they get their news from AP, Reuters, et al and in urban areas they’re just mouthpieces for national leftists.
Wow! Who would have thought propaganda dressed up as news would be a market failure? Who could have guessed? /s
“Our economy has been surprisingly strong of late.”
Such lies. Always lies.

True, they don’t get it. Newspapers and many TV channels have simply turned into an editorial page bereft of any news. So, people turn to more honest sources for the news. They know your stance on Woke culture, LBGTQ and other topics and they are sick and tired of having it shoved down their throats. According to them, you can’t have a new TV show unless it has a gay couple on it. 911 has almost half it people in gay relationships. Why? TV ads...what happened to single-race couples? I see them all the time, but evidently the TV producers and ad people can’t find them. I could give a damn what you do in private as long as it doesn’t infringe the rights of others, but I don’t want it shoved down my throat on TV and I sure as hell am not going to pay for it print media.
I agree in part with your assessment. I really feel that at least for the 20 to 30 crowd, thoroughly saturated and steeped in Smart phones, videos and repetitive hyper advertising that’s really nothing more than propaganda most people , young people that is, can’t really read. I’m not kidding you.
I work with some kids in this age group and you can’t believe how functionally illiterate some of them are.
